Got a cigarette craving whilst you're at home?
Beat the craving by distracting yourself with some household chores - unpack the dishwasher, do a quick vacuum, fold the washing.
It might not be the first thing that comes to mind, but many people find doing some 'hands on' chores is a helpful distraction technique, whilst also ticking the 'satisfaction' button too.

Got a cigarette craving? Put on your favourite song!
Cravings generally only last for 2-3 minutes, about the same as a song. By the time the song ends, hopefully so has your craving.
