Quit Smoking With Natural Remedies
I'm sure many people have resolved to quit smoking in 2009 and may turn to patches and gum, but are there any natural solutions that aren't full of chemicals? I haven't tried these remedies, because i don't smoke, but I found it interesting to learn that there are alternatives if you don't want to use patches or gum and don't want to quit cold turkey either.
- St. John's Wort may lessen cravings but make sure to check with your doctor if you take any prescription drugs. You wouldn't want any adverse interactions going on there.
- Replace your habit with something else. When you want to smoke, chew a piece of gum, take a walk or find something to keep your hands busy and your mind elsewhere like origami or paperclip folding. Just make sure you don't pick something that can turn into it's own bad habit like eating candy or other junk foods.
- Set up a reward system. Use your cigarette money for something else if you don't smoke for a week or get a massage after several weeks of not smoking. Make the rewards something you really want.
