Remove everything that could trigger your desire to smoke, such as:

• Ashtrays.
• Lighters and matches.
• Cigarettes.
• Storage containers associated with cigarettes.
• Photos of you with cigarettes.

Remove any trace of smoke odour, and any visual reminder of your smoking habit.

• Clean fabrics that retain the smell of smoke including curtains, clothing, carpeting, rugs, upholstery, sheets, throw blankets, lampshades, and towels.
• Turn your mattress and vacuum both sides.
• Replace your pillow.
• Wipe down all hard surfaces, furniture, walls, windows, mirrors and light fixtures.
• Open your windows whenever possible so fresh air can circulate.

Keep a supply of things that may be helpful to overcome cravings, such as:

• Healthy snacks, like fruit and raw vegetables.
• Sugar-free gum or sugar-free sweets.
• Nicotine replacement gum or lozenges.
• Puzzles or games.
• Books and magazines you’ve been meaning to read.

Make changes to your environment that make it harder to smoke.

• Rearrange or disassemble any space once dedicated to smoking.
• Create a new personal space in a fresh location in your home.
• Decorate with upbeat, motivating items, such as photos of loved ones and quotes.
• Turn your home into a smoke-free zone. That means no smoking for anyone!
