Are you ready to take that first
step?
The American Lung Association’s Freedom From Smoking Clinic has been designed
for people like you who want help to quit smoking. Quitting smoking is hard,
and Freedom From Smoking can help make that process easier.
Motivation, support, encouragement…..
Freedom From Smoking is
a seven week clinic led by a certified facilitator.
Each session lasts 60-90 minutes depending on the size of the group. A supportive
group setting encourages you to work on the process and problems of quitting
not alone but together.
Finally, a positive approach:
Unlike other programs, Freedom From Smoking takes a positive approach to quitting
smoking---no scare tactics or models or dirty lungs. You will learn how to take
control of your health and well being.
The program helps you prepare to quit smoking, helps you take the actual steps
and teaches you how to maintain your new, nonsmoking lifestyle.
Materials:
You will receive a wealth of support materials at each session including worksheets,
self assessments, up-to-date information and research, a certificate upon completion,
a Freedom From Smoking lapel pin, a relaxation audio CD and much more.
