When quitting smoking, addiction is like a small hand, tickling people's hearts. Many people were full of confidence at first, but were tempted to give up halfway. Behavioral psychology research shows that if you persist in doing one thing, you will form a habit after 2 1 day. Recently, the American "MSN Health" website published a "2 1 day smoking cessation timetable" to help you successfully overcome your addiction.
Day 1 day: physical examination. The first thing to do to quit smoking is to understand the physical condition and find sufficient reasons to quit smoking. At the same time, it is best to ask doctors to give corresponding smoking cessation goals and suggestions according to their own situation.
The next day: stick a no-smoking sticker. Drugs such as smoking cessation stickers can help relieve physical discomfort after quitting smoking, and also have a certain psychological suggestion, but excessive use can also be addictive, so it is necessary to consult a doctor.
Day 3: Chew sugar-free gum. At this time, smokers are easy to "yield". You can prepare some sugar-free chewing gum at home, in the car or in the office where you usually smoke. If you are addicted to cigarettes, chew one, which will help distract you.
Day 4: Tooth washing. Go to the hospital to get rid of cigarettes and make your teeth as white as ever. White and beautiful teeth will become a big obstacle to smoking addiction.
Day 5: Do some manual work. Keeping your hands busy can make people have no time to care about smoking addiction. For example, learn to knit sweaters, cross stitch, assemble models, and do housework. It can make your brain and hands move and help you forget your addiction.
Day 6: Buy a lipstick. Studies have found that lipstick, lipstick or lip gloss are very useful when smokers are addicted.
Day 7: Kiss your lover. After several days of hard work, smoking cessation has little effect, such as no smell of smoke in your mouth. At this time, kiss your lover and enjoy the wonderful feeling of kissing after quitting smoking. If you get praise from your lover, it will also give you confidence to quit smoking.
Day 8: Have a drink. After quitting smoking, taste and smell began to recover. At this time, you can try a glass of wine. This is a test of taste and smell, and an opportunity for you to experience the benefits of quitting smoking.
Day 9: Learn to dance. After quitting smoking, your endurance will be greatly increased. At this time, you can learn a dance, which can not only promote the brain to secrete endorphins, inhibit the desire to smoke, but also enhance lung function.
Day 10: Competing with partners who quit smoking. Mutual supervision and encouragement among friends will help to improve the success rate of quitting smoking. You can hold a competition among quit smoking partners to see who thinks the least and sticks to it the best in a day.
Day 1 1 day: Practice deep breathing. Take 3-5 minutes to take two deep breaths in the morning and evening. Inhale deeply through your nose, close your eyes, hold for a few seconds, and then exhale slowly through your mouth. In the process of deep breathing, you can expect good health and long life after quitting smoking.
Day 12: Drink plenty of water. Drinking 8- 10 glass of water (about 2 liters) helps to expel toxins from the body, restore all parts of the body, and make the skin smoother and more elastic.
Day 13: Have a good sleep. After quitting smoking, you may often feel nervous at this stage. At this time, you might as well put down what you are doing and have a comfortable sleep.
Day 14: Take a walk at noon. When you are busy and stressed at work, you will think of smoking a cigarette to relieve stress, and it will be a waste to quit smoking. You can go out for a walk during lunch break, or go home for a hot bath at night (it is best to add a few drops of lavender or jasmine essential oil to the water) and massage your body, which will help you relax and relieve stress.
Day 15: No drinking. On weekends, friends get together for a few drinks. But places like bars and KTV are the "inducing places" for smoking addiction, and staying away from alcohol can improve the success rate of quitting smoking.
Day 16: Clean the room. A smoker's room will smell of smoke. After giving up smoking for half a month, you'd better take some time to clean the room. If necessary, you can use steam spray to clean carpets, cushions, etc. , and clean and dry curtains and sheets stained with smoke to prevent you from becoming addicted to cigarettes.
Day 17: car wash. After cleaning the room, it's time to get rid of the smoke in the car. It is recommended to ask professionals to deodorize the car, which is more thorough.
Day 18: Exercise for 20 minutes. Walking, doing aerobic exercise or yoga for 20 minutes will help promote the secretion of endorphins, reduce stress, make people feel happier, and will not have the desire to smoke.
Day 19: Write a diary of quitting smoking. Write down the reasons, feelings and next goals of quitting smoking, and let your spouse or children write down their expectations of quitting smoking.
Day 20: Share the experience of quitting smoking. Going to the smoking cessation website or sharing your smoking cessation experience with friends and getting support and praise from others can enhance your confidence in quitting smoking, improve your smoking cessation methods and relieve your anxiety and discomfort after quitting smoking.
Day 2 1 day: Save money for cigarettes. Three weeks later, I successfully quit smoking. From then on, I can throw a coin into the piggy bank every day, which represents the cost saved by quitting smoking and helps to improve my enthusiasm for quitting smoking. ▲
