Tips for staying quit
before you quit
Clean your home
Get your groceries, meals, snack foods, and supplements you plan on taking for detox and cessation and have everything you need so you can stay home for 3 days straight
As a smoker, practice saying no to cigarettes you want to smoke
Make and keep lists of why of you want to quit
after your last cigarette
Take a shower
Brush your teeth, using old toothbrush (follow this guide for ultra clean teeth)
Rinse your mouth with NAC or suck on cysteine tables to reduce carcinogens from your last cigarette
Coconut oil pull to reduce oral bacteria
Wash your sheets and bedding
Buy two new toothbrushes, use the first new brush for the second time you brush after your last cigarette and throw out after you’ve been quit for 72 hours. Start using the second new brush when all the nicotine is out of your system, about 72 hours after you’ve quit smoking.
Track your progress and listen to your body. If you are taking supplements keep a journal of what you are taking on daily basis and compare it to how you feel and your withdrawal symptoms.
Relapses
If you relapse, use it as motivation to make a stronger commitment to quit. You don’t have to recount the days - just stop and keep going on your stay quit plan, you can do it and life is better without cigarettes.
