Welcome Back!

I hope you have given thought to what sent you back to smoking last time and have a plan in place in case the same thing happens again?

You are doing GREAT at six days.  Stay strong and stay committed!

Welcome back!!!

 Do you have a PLAN for what you will do instead of smoke when you get cravings?...my favorite has been jumping jacks and biting a lemon (instant crave buster) also telling myself each time how exciting!!! I GET TO RE-LEARN HOW TO...DRIVE TO WORK...LEAVE THE GROCERY STORE...HAVE A BREAK...CLEAN MY HOUSE.. without a cigarette...eventually I actually believed it was exciting and GOT EXCITED about re-learning how to live without the nasty things...I'm still excited...be excited...you've made a choice...again and this time you can do what it takes to honor that decision no matter what happens! The NEW NORMAL is an exciting adventure land where beauty, peace and coping skills are a way of life...I kept visualizing my new normal and watching me in it smiling, joyful, able to handle the life stuff as it comes with grace, dignity, integrity...I feel like I am living that now…truly in it and loving life again…I am doing lots of green stuff as well…drinks, salads, vegies!
