Les habitudes sont des choses que nous apprenons à faire automatiquement, sans y réfléchir. [...] Elles en viennent à faire partie de notre routine quotidienne, c'est-à-dire des activités avec lesquelles nous nous sentons à l'aise parce qu'elles n'exigent pas de nous des pensées ou des efforts conscients. [...] La pensée consciente est l'une des clés pour rompre ou déconstruire votre habitude de fumer et la routine qui l'entoure. Vous devez donc prendre conscience des émotions et des activités auxquelles vous en êtes venu à associer la cigarette -- c'est-à-dire les facteurs qui vous poussent à fumer et ce que vous offre apparemment la cigarette ainsi que ce à quoi le tabac est censé vous préparer. 1, record 1, French, - habitude%20de%20fumer

Q4L(Quit4Life) program exists because smoking is the leading preventable cause of serious illness and death in Canada. If teens who smoke have the opportunity to participate in cessation programs that are suitable for them, the rate of teen smoking likely will continue to decline. Health Canada is taking steps to help youth quit smoking before it becomes a lifelong habit. And the Quit4Life program has been part of the plan since 1996. 1, record 2, English, - Quit4Life

Le programme V100F (Vie100Fumer) a été créé parce que le tabagisme est la première cause évitable de maladies graves et de décès au Canada. Santé Canada prend les mesures nécessaires pour aider les jeunes à cesser de fumer avant qu'ils en fassent une habitude permanente. Le programme Vie100Fumer fait partie de ce plan depuis 1996. Si l'on propose à ces jeunes des programmes d'abandon du tabagisme qui leur conviennent, la proportion des fumeurs parmi les adolescents devrait continuer de diminuer. 1, record 2, French, - Vie100Fumer

Nicotine replacement therapy(NRT) became available over-the-counter(OTC) in the 1990's. The purpose of NRT is to substitute another source of nicotine while cigarettes are discontinued. By this means, the habit of smoking is eliminated, even though the addiction to nicotine remains intact. NRT eliminates the symptoms of withdrawal that can trigger more smoking. 1, record 3, English, - nicotine%20replacement%20therapy
