Stop Smoking Together

Stopping smoking isn’t easy

Whether you've just woken up, eaten a meal or had a stressful day there are often internal instincts that drive smoking behaviour, which makes it a difficult habit to let go of.

That said and done, where there’s a will, there’s a way. On our Stop Smoking Together - Circle App, ex-smokers around BwD have shared what's worked for them in hopes of helping you overcome your own smoking habit.

Learn what from their experiences by joining here and feel free to post any questions that would help you on your own journey.

Mind over Matter

It’s no secret that smoking as a habit is deeply wired into the brain. Whether as a coping mechanism or simply for the hit - to break out of it, we need to understand the body better.

Education is empowerment. We’ve recorded a series of mini clips to help broaden your understanding of smoking and stopping smoking. You are welcome to watch on the go at your own leisure.
