Healthy Lifestyles’ smoking cessation program could be your ticket to quit
Quitting smoking is a personal decision, but the actual process of quitting—fighting that seemingly overwhelming urge on a daily basis—is easier when you have some support.
Surrounding yourself with people who understand your struggle can make it much easier to win at smoking cessation. By joining the program, you receive:
· Science-based smoking cessation resources. We’ve already done the research for you. Whether you want to learn more about the physical and psychological addiction smokers face or get a better understanding of the most common methods and treatments available to help you quit, you’ll have quick and easy access to the latest data.
· Tips and advice from expert counselors online. Ask a question or get advice from an experienced “Q-Counselor.” Post messages in a special Expert Forum or send a private message to a Q-Counselor.
· Support from your Quit Buddies in the community. Chat with other “quitters” who share your struggles and will celebrate your triumphs with you. Having a buddy provides both accountability and support—from someone who’s going through the same thing you are.
· Personalized smoking cessation plans and quitting guide. Tailor the program based on your needs, including your own Personal Quit Page, Quit Calendar, Q-Mail account and more. The program offers so many ways to interact, learn, seek advice and give support, all under one roof.
· Expert guidance and recommendations regarding quitting medications. With Quit Med Support you’ll have access to a Medication Guide and Expert Database to help you stay informed.
· Incentives and rewards. You’ll even be recognized for your accomplishments with milestone rewards that will help you celebrate your success.
Quitting is one of the best things that you can do to improve your health and the health of those around you. We understand that quitting is not easy, but with determination, a positive attitude and a little support, you can join a special and ever-growing community of people: ex-tobacco users.
