Nicotine Anonymous is not a religion, nor does it have an “official” or “approved” spiritual path. Our program is based on universal spiritual principles and uses the concept referred to as God, Higher Power, or a Power greater than ourselves as an essential means to recover from our active nicotine addiction.

Nicotine Anonymous Third Step Prayer

Relieve me of the bondage of self.

Help me abandon myself to the spirit.

Move me to do good in this world and show kindness

Help me to overcome and avoid anger, resentment, jealousy and any other kind of negative thinking today.

Help me to help those who suffer.

Keep me alert with courage to face life and not withdraw from it, not to insulate myself from all pain whereby I insulate myself from love as well.

Free me from fantasy and fear.

Inspire and direct my thinking today; let it be divorced from self pity, dishonesty and self-seeking motives.

Show me the way of patience, tolerance, kindliness and love.

I pray for all of those to whom I've been unkind and ask that they are granted the same peace that I seek.

Nicotine Anonymous Seventh Step Prayer

My Higher Power, I place myself in your hands and humbly ask that my character defects be lifted from me so that I may help others. Please grant me willingness, courage, and strength so that through my actions I may reflect your love and wisdom. Amen.
