Further help for healthy smoking

The two main problems with smoking, brown or green, are heated vapours and tar.
The heat problem I have dealt with in my first article of this blog. The tar problem is harder to deal with. On the one hand you want to get some of the smoke in to your lungs. On the other hand you don't want to get the smoke in to your lungs.

One solution is "Vaping". That is using the new technology of essences mixed with a carrier, usually glycerol. Glycerol is a component of the body normally so it is not harmful. However most glycerol produced commercially comes from the abattoir floor so it is not Vegan. There fore most Vaping solutions are harmful.
Also the essences used in the solutions could contain substances which form tar when heated.

The other simpler and traditional solution is to use filter tips. These block most of the bigger lumps of smoke. But they also knock out some of the nicotine.
Roaches do not filter. Roaches are bits of paper or card which are folded or rolled in to a tip for the end of the cigarette.

The final and first solution which you may try is prayer. It works best.

A psycho-analysis of smoking and tips on if you want to stop smoking

When we smoke and enjoy it, IMHO (in my humble opinion), we feel Loved and feel that we have friends. There is no reason to stop smoking in this case. Especially if we smoke together.

When we smoke and do not enjoy it, we feel we do not have friends or Love. But we are keener to smoke because we are sending out smoke signals seeking friends. There might be a reason to stop smoking in this case. I am not firm on this though.

If you want to stop smoking then start by thinking about your lifes' troubles. What you did, what you could have done better, what you wish now for the past and the future. This is called moral examination. When you have worked out these problems you will be free from any addiction. You may once in a while smoke a few times but it will be by choice rather than compulsion. You will enjoy life as you did years ago and feel a sense of ease in every thing. And this is the most important part of moral examination; trust in Jesus that He is by your side. Loving you, guiding you and saving you.

Happy smokes.

If you do not notice a high when smoking

Tobacco and most or all substances, is about relationships. If you do not get high from smoking your own bought tobacco it is because it was not acquired through Love. It was bought with cold, hard, impersonal money.
So : Always have tobacco ready to share or give away. If the person you give to is a friend you will get yours in reciprocation, if not immediately then delayed.
Be ready to give and be ready and willing to recieve.

Happy smokes.

The plant of Giving Friendship

Tobacco was first discovered and used by the Native Americans. They new the secret to the plant. When given in friendship it has potency. Otherwise it is not effective. They had ceremonies where they would talk and make alliances and then smoke the Tobacco. Tobacco is the plant of giving friendship.

Don't smoke alone

As with all things in Life, smoking and drinking (water based liquids, alcohol, coffee) and food should be taken with a friend. Smokes are for sharing.
When putting a cup down for yourself on the table, put one extra for Jesus; your constant friend.

Advice about smoking #2

IMHO Smoke a cigarette just enough to get a buzz then butt out and stop smoking. Do not overdose. Symptoms of overdose from tobacco include dizziness and headache and vomiting.
There is more tobacco in a normal cigarette than is necessary for enjoyment. Butt out when you get the feeling then save the end for rolling a new cigarette later.

A few physiological effects of smoking which I notice

Smoking has various effects on my physiology. You may notice these same effects as well or other effects.

1. Stimulation of at the rear of the head. I get a feeling at the rear of the inside of my head. It is pleasurable. Possibly due to stimulation of the muscles of the blood vessels causing constriction of the blood vessels.

2. I find that smoking helps me be more aware of my breathing.

3. Smoking helps control the feeling of dryness in my mouth. Useful when on certain medications which cause excessive saliva or dry mouth.

4. Tobacco is a laxative. Useful when on some medications which cause poor gut mobility or are excreted.
