Become an ex

   The way to quit smoking is to re-learn everything you thought you knew about how to quit. Instead of just throwing your cigarettes out one morning and trying to stop smoking, you can use the free EX quit smoking plan to prepare yourself by re-learning life without cigarettes. EX will help you pick your smoking habit apart into little pieces you can tackle one by one. Once you begin, you'll start to look at quitting smoking not as one huge war, but as a series of small battles you can actually see yourself winning.

Smoking Cessation Decision Tree & Online Resource Lists
The Prenatal Smoking Cessation Project Team at the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment developed two online resource lists, one for professionals and one for clients. The team also developed a smoking cessation decision tree for providers. The decision tree is a simplified version of the Colorado Clinical guidelines Collaborative (CCGC) tobacco cessation guideline. The simplified decision tree was created for front line staff and can be used in situations where client counseling time is limited.
