Breaking free for Ramadan – and beyond: How to quit smoking, drinking, and junk food for good

Introduction

Ramadan is a time of reflection, discipline, and spiritual renewal. Every year, millions of people successfully abstain from smoking, drinking, and junk food from dawn to dusk. Yet, as soon as the month is over, many return to their old addictions and issues, feeling trapped in an endless cycle of dependency and regret.

If you can give up your addiction for a whole month, why do you go back to it afterwards? More importantly, how can you stop for good?

At Allen Carr’s Easyway, we understand this struggle—and we have the solution. Let’s break down why Ramadan is proof that you can quit, and how to use that momentum to make a permanent change.

Ramadan proves you can quit

Many people believe they are hopelessly addicted to smoking, alcohol, or junk food. They think they need a crutch to cope with stress, boredom, or social situations or that it gives them some pleasure.

Yet, during Ramadan, those same people manage to go without their habit for long hours every single day.

What does this tell us?

It tells us that you can quit.

The cravings you fear so much are not as powerful as you think. Your body and mind can adapt faster than you realise. But if you still feel deprived or anxious about quitting, it means the real problem isn’t physical—it’s mental.

In fact addiction is 99% mental you just need the right method to free yourself from the trap.

Why do you start again after Ramadan?

If you can stop smoking, drinking, or eating junk food for an entire month, why do you go back to it once Ramadan is over?

It’s not because you “need” it. It’s because you still believe it gives you something positive—relief, pleasure, or comfort. That’s the trap.

But the truth is, these habits don’t give you anything. They take away your health, money, confidence, and freedom.

The so-called “pleasure” is just the relief of satisfying a craving that didn’t need to exist in the first place.

This is the addiction trap.

How to quit for good

At Allen Carr’s Easyway, we don’t use willpower or deprivation to help you quit.

We don’t tell you to “fight” your cravings or “resist” temptation.

Instead, we help you change the way you think about your addiction so that you no longer want it.

Here are a few tips to help you but the best way is via Allen Carr’s Easyway because without the map or method you may stay trapped:

1. Recognise that you are not giving up anything

Whether it’s cigarettes, alcohol, or junk food, ask yourself: What does this habit actually do for me?

Does it really relieve stress—or has it just tricked me into thinking that? Does it really taste good—or am I just addicted to the chemicals?

Once you see through the illusion, quitting becomes easy.

2. Stop romanticising it

Many people look forward to Eid as a time to “reward” themselves with the very things they avoided during Ramadan.

But why reward yourself with something harmful?

Celebrate your achievements by continuing to care for your body and mind, not by poisoning them.

3. Reframe your mindset

Don’t tell yourself, “I survived without smoking for a month.”

Instead, realise, “I was free from smoking for a month.”

The same goes for alcohol and junk food. Freedom isn’t something to suffer through—it’s something to enjoy.

4. Use the Easyway method

The Allen Carr’s Easyway method has helped millions of people worldwide quit smoking, drinking, and emotional eating without willpower, fear, or suffering.

Our approach helps you remove the desire for these habits, so quitting is easy and enjoyable.

No cravings. No feeling deprived. Just freedom.
