After Quitting



From Terry Martin, your Guide to Smoking Cessation

Recovery from nicotine addiction is a process, not an event.

Years of smoking has ingrained associations between just about every facet of daily life and our cigarettes.  Settle in and know that every single smoke-free day you complete is retraining your brain with new associations that do not include smoking. In time, those days will add up to a comfort with your smoke-free life that is outstanding and truly free of the need to light up.

One day at a time, folks!

Have a great week.
