Make the decision to quit smoking only when you are in a good mood with a positive attitude and not when you are under any kind of pressure or stress.
Working Out
The average nicotine craving lasts about three minutes. While those three minutes might feel like three years, you simply can't light up if you're busy exercising. Working out or exercising is one of the ways to avoid the craving of smoking. Go for a jog or find any sport that interests you. Thus by exercising not only will the craving pass, you'll be developing new muscles.
Chewing Gum
Chewing Gum is one of the other ways to fight the urge of smoking. This will not only in enjoying oral stimulation with both smoking and chewing gum, you can freshen your breath, feeling fresh. Keep in mind a dollar one or two is much cheaper than a pack of cigarettes.
Drink Water
One of the most important ways to eliminate smoking is to drink water. Keeping yourself hydrated is key factor to a successful termination of a smoking habit. Most often people tend to flood their system with caffeine instead. If you are under the assumption that increasing the intake of caffeine will help, you cut down the craving for nicotine then think again. By quitting smoking, you should also reduce the quantity of coffee you drink into half. Instead of drinking the second cup of coffee, try drinking water. This way one can, not only cut cost on cigarette packets but also on latte expenses.
Breathing Exercise
A smoker does not realize that his lungs do not function as well as passive smokers and is limited to breathing capabilities. Every time you feel the urge to smoke take a deep breath and exhale. Feel your lungs expand and know that they are working better each day than they did the day before.
Go to Sleep
It is difficult to overcome late night smoking cravings. If you are like an owl, try adjusting you schedule so that it would help you go to sleep an hour early than usual. This way you are less likely to get out of bed to take a drag, you will also be giving your body sufficient rest while it experiences the process of withdrawal.
If you failed, just start all over again, some people have to quit as many as eight times before they are successful.
