THE LAST PUFF

Your Guide to Breaking Free from Smoking Addiction

“Decide on your last puff before your puffs decide your fate.”
— Dr. Sajeela Maini

Break Free from the Smoking Cycle. Take Control of Your Life.

Ask a regular smoker whether they enjoy smoking, and the answer will most likely be “Yes.” Ask the same person whether they want to quit, and the answer may once again be “Yes.”

This is the contradiction of smoking addiction: smokers often share a powerful love-hate relationship with cigarettes. They continue to smoke even when they no longer want to, knowing the harm it can cause to their health and well-being.

Research has indicated that a significant number of smokers want to quit but struggle to do so because of nicotine dependence. Many try to reduce the number of cigarettes they smoke, make repeated attempts to quit, or promise themselves that they will stop someday. However, cravings, withdrawal symptoms, habitual patterns, and repeated setbacks can make quitting difficult. Over time, these unsuccessful attempts may leave smokers feeling helpless and trapped in a cycle of dependence.

The Last Puff – More Than Just a Book

The Last Puff, authored by Dr. Sajeela Maini, is designed to help smokers understand their addiction and follow a structured approach towards quitting.

It is not intended to be just another book about the harmful effects of smoking. Instead, it serves as a practical guide to the quitting process, helping readers understand the psychology of smoking, recognise their dependence, and prepare themselves for life without cigarettes.

The book introduces 27 Mantras to Quitting, followed by a structured Quit Smoking Therapy and a dedicated Relapse Prevention Therapy. Together, these provide readers with a step-by-step framework to understand their smoking habits, manage cravings, strengthen their motivation, and work towards staying smoke-free.

The central idea is simple: knowing that smoking is harmful is not enough. What smokers need is a clear, practical, and structured way to quit.

What Makes The Last Puff Different?

The Last Puff focuses on the process of quitting rather than simply repeating the dangers of smoking. It aims to demystify the smoker's mind and explain the behavioural and psychological patterns that keep people connected to cigarettes.

Through its 27 mantras and structured therapeutic approach, the book encourages readers to:

• Understand the psychological and behavioural aspects of smoking.

• Recognise the habits, situations, and triggers associated with cigarette consumption.

• Prepare for the challenges of quitting.

• Develop healthier ways to respond to cravings and urges.

• Strengthen motivation and commitment towards a smoke-free life.

• Understand the importance of relapse prevention and long-term support.
