Drink your water: don't become complacent about this. Remember that drinking water is good for you, but it is also fun. Take long drinks of water, let the cool liquid roll down your throat. Imagine it as a cool waterfall, splashing inside your body. Drink as much as you can, but make sure you associate it with pleasure.

Make it a habit to drink water every twenty minutes to half an hour. Take a good mouthful and say 'What a refreshing feeling!' to yourself as you drink.

Drink a lot. This may seem like a burden for a few days, but it then becomes a habit, and a healthy habit it is. Drinking water is good for you at any time, but it is particularly beneficial now - it will soothe your body as you go through the nicotine withdrawal. It will help you to occupy yourself with something other than smoking. It will help you manage your weight and bring elasticity back to your skin.

Smoking causes a great deal of damage to you whether you are aware of this or not. Water will help your body undo the damage and start the reparation. The body is an amazing machine - give it the right substance and it will regenerate itself.

And remember your vitamin C. Carry chewable 250-milligram tablets and chew one any time you feel like it. Vitamin C helps detoxification and the sweetened tablets will also leave a good taste in your mouth.

Stress is an enormous factor in modern life and smokers believe that smoking helps them to cope with it. The next Session will concentrate on this stress factor and we will evaluate the merits of smoking as a strategy for stress management.
