1.
Expect it. Many times
a day you will feel like this.
2.
Acknowledge it. Each time during the day when you feel like a
cigarette simply acknowledge it. It is OK. It is quite
normal and natural.
3.
Make a note of it. On a piece of paper write down what time
it is and realize quite clearly in your mind : This is only
my body registering it's demand for nicotine. Soon it will
be gone. Everyday it is getting weaker and
weaker.
4.
Imagine your body's
demand for nicotine in the form of a little monster in your
body. See the life pouring out of it. Imagine it getting
weaker and weaker - it's mouth open, falling to the ground ,
struggling and gradually dissolving into nothingness.
Everyday you choose not to smoke you are draining it of more
power and life and in three weeks, it will completely
dead.
5.
Repeat this process every time you feel like a cigarette,
noting the time and the intensity of the demand.
In fact the
more intense the demand the better : it is only the 'little
monster' shouting more loudly - thus you know you are on the
right road.
