Tired of letting cravings control you? Beat the cravings, one at a time.
Quitting is an around-the-clock challenge. Making small changes to your daily routine in the moments that cravings arise can help you overcome cigarette or vape cravings and bring you one step closer to quitting for good.
Ways you can distract yourself
Beat cravings, one at a time. Cravings can emerge at any time of the day. It is important to set yourself up with tactics to help you change your habits. For example:
Do you crave a cigarette or vape after breakfast?
Have a mint or replace the hand-to-mouth motion by brushing your teeth.
Do you crave a cigarette or vape before bed?
Try switching up your routine by putting on your favourite TV show instead.
Do you crave a cigarette or vape with your morning coffee?
Trade out your morning coffee for a cup of your favourite tea.
Do you crave a cigarette or vape after dinner?
Keep yourself busy by texting or calling a friend instead.
Do you crave a cigarette or vape after lunch?
Try heading outside for a walk around the block.
