Make your home a no-smoking zone
According to Healthshots, a smoker is more likely to quit if they are banned from smoking in their own home. To help your partner quit, post no-smoking posters in various places around the house.
Make every corner of your home a "no-smoking zone." Not being able to find a place to smoke will help your loved one increase their chances of quitting smoking.
Distract your partner
To encourage your partner to quit smoking, use the time at home together to do things, distracting your partner's attention from cigarettes. Instead of staying at home "hugging" the phone, go for a walk together, talk, and confide so that your loved one does not have time alone and think about smoking.
Raise their spirits
Smoking is a hard habit to quit, for many people smoking is a part of life, but help your partner quit smoking with gentle encouragement. Create a "no smoking hour" challenge and give them spiritual gifts to encourage and motivate.
Also, praise your partner often when they resist the urge to smoke to keep them motivated on this difficult journey.
Don't mentally torture your opponent.
Quitting smoking means your loved one is struggling with nicotine withdrawal. Don’t make things worse by mentally torturing them. Talk to them and let them know how much you love and care about their health.
Stay away from other smokers
In addition to encouraging and supporting your partner to quit smoking, you should help them quit smoking by limiting their contact with other smokers.
