Psychological Benefits Of Quitting Smoking
A smoker always tries to associate numerous
psychological benefits to his habit of smoking. But, the benefits you
get after you leave this habit outnumber the previous list. These
psychological benefits provide you a mental relief:
1) The first benefit is the sense of accomplishment
that you derive after you kick the habit. This feeling will spill over
to other areas of your concern and you will have a feeling that you
can achieve other goals which you earlier thought were beyond your
reach.
2) You will see a rise in your self esteem levels as smoking becomes a
distant memory. You will not be afraid to attend events as your hand
and your clothes will not stink. Your sense of smell and taste will
also improve as
the haze of smoking disappears. This has tremendous
psychological benefits as you will discover all the wonders of life
once again such as, smell of the flowers and outdoors, tastes of
exotic fruits and alike.
3) Most of the smokers know about the evils of smoking and they do not
want their family members and friends to acquire this bad habit. Even
when they tell others not to smoke, there is a sense of hypocrisy in
their words. After you kick the habit and tell others to quit as well,
nobody can dare call you a hypocrite. You will be able to lead by
example. You will not only set an example for others but will be proud
of your accomplishment as well.
The benefits of quitting smoking are enormous and there are some
benefits which you can only feel, such as these psychological benefits.
You will be more in control and proud of yourself once you get rid of
this bad habit. So just go ahead!
