Freedom From Smoking

Freedom From Smoking is a six-week smoking cessation program available to the public as well as our participants. An American Lung Association Program designed to help you quit with support. Freedom From Smoking is $124.

Almost everyone who is asked expresses regret about starting to smoke, and everyone who quits is glad that they did. Why then, do we continue to smoke even though we know it is bad for us?

Addiction to nicotine seems the obvious answer and it is a formidable foe. But smokers also express fear of failing as the factor that keeps them smoking. Many have attempted to quit unsuccessfully in the past, and believe that resuming smoking may be more painful than facing the health toll of continued smoking. Smoking often fills emotional needs and is used as a stress tonic, which complicates the habituation.

Smoking is something that we practice over and over again, every day. Quitting is more than just a smoking cessation program. Your smoking motivations and patterns are identified. Concrete tools for quitting are incorporated into your plan for stopping and how to stay free is reinforced. You are not alone in your effort, and you have support after you quit.

The Freedom From Smoking Program is offered periodically throughout the year by smoking cessation leaders trained by the American Lung Association. You can participate in this program as a component of the Prevention Program, or just take the smoking cessation class. Please inquire at:
