Conscious Disassociation

A useful method for transforming habits is that of conscious
disassociation. This involves avoiding the situations that give rise to the
habit occurring automatically. For example, if you often smoke after a
coffee, you have to make sure there is no coffee. By breaking your habit,
you will be less likely to have a craving to smoke. Instead of your habitual
coffee, you can create a new pattern and have a cup of herbal tea and sit
down to think or read, instead of smoking.
