LifeCare Helps Smokers Stub Out Addiction

  Smoke-Free Program

LifeCare has recently added a new weapon to its growing arsenal of Healthy Living Programs: the Smoke-Free Program from Miavita—an online program based on a patented, science-backed system that has helped people quit smoking for over 20 years. Smoke-Free was originally created in 1977 by former smokers. After a solid track record of success—including best-in-class quit rates of about 30%—the program was redesigned and launched as a web-based program in 1999.

Smoke-Free is built around personalized online tools and support to help users quit smoking, manage their weight, reduce stress, and live smoke-free in the long-term. The program's six-week curriculum is as follows:

Week 1—Countdown to Your Quit Date: Focuses on the dangers of nicotine and helping participants prepare to quit.

Week 2—Quitting Time: Helps participants fight cravings, monitor progress and stay smoke-free.

Week 3—Your Support System: Teaches how family and friends can help through the rough spots.

Week 4—Urge Control: Offers new ways to remain in control when the urge to smoke rises.

Week 5—Beat Stress, Beat Smoking: Delivers creative ways to handle stress and increase the odds of ending the smoking habit once and for all.

Week 6—Stay Smoke-Free: Offers techniques to avoid common lapses and focuses on remaining smoke-free for the long term.
