Griffin Health offers education, advice, and support to help individuals prepare to quit tobacco and nicotine with two upcoming sessions of its free cessation program this January.
“That’s It! Learn to Quit!” teaches a variety of methods to help individuals quit tobacco and nicotine over the course of six weekly meetings. There will be a session on Mondays Jan. 19 and 16, Feb. 2 and 9 and March 2 from 10-11:30 a.m. at Griffin Faculty Physicians Family Health Care Center, 110 Commerce Drive, Shelton. There will be another session Tuesdays Jan. 20 and 27, Feb. 3, 10, 17, and 24 from 5:30-7 p.m. at Griffin Hospital, 130 Division St., Derby.
The program encourages participants to acknowledge and honor past successes in their goal to quit tobacco.
The goal is to help individuals learn how to stop using tobacco and nicotine without the guilt, shame, and fear of failure by teaching several different methods of quitting and managing nicotine withdrawal.
Through group discussion and interactive activities, participants learn how to develop a quit plan that addresses their personal behaviors and habits. Strategies to manage nicotine withdrawal, behaviors, triggers, and urges are discussed as well as weight control and stress management.
Participants must be prepared to attend all six sessions.
To register, visit griffinhealth.org/ tobacco-nicotine-cessation or call 203-732-1369.
This free tobacco and nicotine program is part of Griffin’s commitment to improving the health and well-being of its community through free education, guidance and assistance in preventing and managing chronic disease, and in promoting overall wellness. Griffin’s mission is to empower individuals to make choices that change their lifestyles for the better, and to go beyond caring for individuals when they are not well by building a meaningful relationship, guiding, and coaching them to maximize their quality of life.
