MEET SOMEONE NEW
Introduce yourself to a non-smoker. Find out what interests you have in common. A conversation with someone new can help you stay focused.
FIND A DISTRACTION
If a craving hits, distract yourself by doing something else. May we suggest standing under the mistletoe?
INVITE A QUIT BUDDY
Ask someone at the party to be your “quit buddy”; someone who’ll help steer you away from your triggers.
DON'T STRESS!
Stress can be a trigger, so avoid uncomfortable conversations. Haven’t returned your neighbor’s hedge clippers? Don’t want to hear about your host’s golf vacation in Myrtle Beach? Excuse yourself and go mingle!
JUST BREATHE
If the urge to smoke gets too strong, take some deep, cleansing breaths to help you relax.
FOOD FIX
Big, heavy meals can be a trigger. Using a smaller plate can help you eat less. You can still have the pecan pie, just not as much.
DRINK SMART
For many, cigarettes and alcohol are partners in crime. Swap out the wine or booze infused eggnog with cider or non-alcoholic punch.
