Top tips to beatyour cravings

✔ Make a list

Write down the reasons you’re quitting and stick it somewhere you will see it regularly, like your fridge or pin board.

✔ Buy yourself a treat

Using the money you save on cigarettes, you could treat yourself to something special: a shopping spree, a day out for the family or saving towards a holiday.

✔ Get encouragement

Tell everyone you’re quitting and get their encouragement. You may find the journey a lot easier with support from your family and friends.

✔ Keep nictotine replacement products handyOnce you have chosen the right products for you, keep them close to hand for when cravings strike. This way, you’ll be able to limit temptations.

With the right support, you’ll feel much more motivated to give up for good, benefitting not only your own health but those around you too.
