Make the Great American Smokeout Your Day to Quit

The American Cancer Society’s annual Great American Smokeout encourages people from across the country to take a step toward a smoke-free life.

If you haven’t started your quit journey yet, now’s the perfect time! Smokers can start reaping the benefits of quitting almost immediately. All you have to ask yourself is: Are you ready to start with day one of your journey to a healthier life?

Use this Monday to get energized, make a plan, find virtual resources, build your support network, and learn what to expect when you start your quit. After the weekend, check-in on your quitting efforts, and find healthy ways to celebrate your success. And if you struggled, use next Monday to learn some new ways to manage your cravings or triggers, and prepare to recommit to your quit!
