Weather of Arabia - On May 31, the World Health Organization celebrates the World No Tobacco Day, to highlight the health risks of tobacco and reduce its consumption.

World No Tobacco Day aims to contribute to protecting current and future generations from the devastating health consequences of tobacco.

Although smoking is an addictive habit, which makes it difficult to get rid of it, many celebrities have managed to overcome it and stop completely, and there are a number of different ways that can be used to quit tobacco, and we will discuss the most prominent of these methods that celebrities followed.

Stop smoking completely with the help of "yoga"

American star Jennifer Aniston was a heavy smoker for years before she underwent a severe purge in 2007.

Aniston attributed her success in quitting smoking to her practice of yoga, as she used to exercise regularly and eat healthily to rid her body of caffeine and nicotine.

Speaking to People magazine in September 2018, Brazilian model Gisele Bundchen admitted that when she first started modeling, she smoked a pack of cigarettes a day.

But in 2003 Bündchen decided to "choose life" and began adopting a healthier lifestyle, with yoga, meditation and running, all of which helped her resist the urge to smoke.

Aerobic exercises such as yoga, deep breathing or meditation have shown that they can be used as an aid to quitting smoking, because they improve its effect and reduce nicotine withdrawal symptoms.

Some studies have shown that yoga may be an effective way to quit smoking completely, due to the fact that it can enhance the response of the sympathetic nervous system, which helps relieve anxiety, increases the level of focus and the ability to remain calm, in addition to its ability to regenerate brain cells and improve Blood circulation.

Yoga also relaxes the mind and combats any tension that may build up in the body (through joints and muscles).

Yoga has been shown to boost the production of happy hormones, which means that practicing yoga may not only reduce stress and tension, but may also lift your mood.

Studies show that yoga boosts the production of serotonin and dopamine along with other happy hormones and neurotransmitters.

When people try to quit smoking, they may encounter other unhealthy habits like eating junk food in large quantities etc. But yoga as an effective way to quit smoking also reduces the desire to follow unhealthy habits.
