Let me start by saying that this is not an article about how to quit smoking. In some ways, it is very different. Whether it's a pipe, cigar or cigarette, some of us have found ourselves smoking. Maybe you tried to quit, but maybe you didn't know enough to try. Either way, the truth remains: "I'm a smoker". If this sounds familiar to you, then you, I am writing this to you.
And it came to me one afternoon, when I was trying to fight against a sore throat, but I was holding my pipe in my left hand, and with my right hand I was reaching for my light... I will not do this. I had a sore throat for a week and could not stop smoking. Well, the truth is the truth, and of course I have no intention of stopping... Slowly, yes; stop, no. Although this time was quick, it was important, because it was then that I accepted my faith. And more importantly, is now able to balance the scales. Smoking makes you old, smoking causes cancer, smoking smells bad, smoking makes your teeth yellow, and a million other Stop Smoking ads ran through my head. ...
I took them all... Okay, now what... Well, I started thinking. With my throat now hurting, I decided to attack this enemy first. Mouthwash, medicine, vitamins; I think they are all good ideas. But even though I am helping the problem, my throat is still sore and I start crying.
Maybe the cough was a blessing in disguise as I reached for a cup of tea to help stop the cough. The steam helped me breathe and the hot water cleared my throat. If nothing else, this experience got me thinking. I explored this further, as I increased my tea.
I have found that drinking tea, Rooibos tea and jasmine green tea in particular, will help me relax (calms my nerves), has a lot of antioxidants to fight the increase of free radicals in my body from smoking (it causes aging and of course, cancer), cleanses my body of toxins, helps me breathe and relieves the sore throat I mentioned earlier. I looked at the list, and the STOP TUXEDO ad came back...
Can a teapot be useful for walking the smoky path? ? From personal experience, I have found that tea helps. No, I do not think that drinking tea will protect me from all diseases, or that I will never get sick again, or that I will avoid any other unpleasant reality that may be waiting. me, but with some truth that I have to accept, the only thing I can do is to minimize the damage. And as I end this article without a promise, I will repeat a simple text statement that has proven itself over and over again, "Drinking tea is a good idea..."
