Today is the Great American Smokeout. 🚭 It is a nationwide movement that inspires people to take the first step toward quitting smoking and improving their health.
Even small steps make a difference. ⏲️ Within 20 minutes of quitting, heart rate and blood pressure begin to drop. 📅 Within one year, the risk of heart disease decreases by half.
If you are thinking about quitting, take it one step at a time. Try setting small goals like going without to***co for the morning, taking a walk when cravings hit, or reaching out to a friend for support. Celebrate progress each day and remember that slips do not erase your effort. 💪
Michelle Evans leads to***co cessation efforts at Phoenixville and Pottstown Hospitals. She is here to support anyone who is ready to quit or even just thinking about it.
Contact Michelle at 610-983-1021 or MichelleP.Evans@towerhealth.org to request a small quit kit or to access helpful resources, classes, and personalized guidance.
