How to stop myself from saying this phrase

Assalamu alaikum. I was raised Muslim, but I picked up a bad habit. Whenever something shocks me or gets on my nerves, I catch myself saying “Bomboclat wallahi” without even thinking. It’s like a reflex now, kind of like saying “bro” without meaning to. I know it’s not right mixing a swear with swearing by Allah and I really want to break it. Any tips on how to control something that slips out so automatically?

Awareness is half the battle. Every time you say it, silently do istighfar. Eventually your brain will link the phrase to repentance and you'll hesitate.
