Knowing how to relax |
|
You don’t smoke but sometimes, when you see your friends or colleagues chatting together with a coffee and a cigarette, you want to join in…
The “cigarette” break, the cigarette you smoke to relax, to have a break between two lessons, two meetings, is particularly dangerous because it’s unconscious and automatic; it doesn’t even correspond to a moment of pleasure but to a habit.The important thing is to know how to relax without turning to any drug, and to smoking in particular. While your friends and colleagues get together around a cigarette, make the most of this lapse of time to do something “just for you”: read, make a phone call, re-do your make-up, do some limbering up exercises…
The cigarette doesn’t provide well-being or relaxation. It’s an illusion. In a moment of stress or intense activity, smoking is essentially equivalent to a way out, while the non-smoker will really know how to relax without needing artifice. |
