Is celery an answer to quitting smoking?
Quitting smoking, according to me, is a matter of replacing one bad habit , with other, less joyful, habits. Unlike the dictionary's definition—which speaks to permanently leaving , if you were curious—mine is rooted in grueling process, not permanence, and experimentation, not expulsion. After turning 27, I decided to take quitting smoking more seriously by turning it into a series of light experiments in wellness.
But first, a list of other less harmful, not necessarily therapeutic alternatives I have tried over the past couple of months.Those who claim that a flavorless piece of slender wood works as a viable substitute for nicotine are lying. Not to mention the fact that in order to extract any taste whatsoever, you have to chew them into small and sword-like shards, which is just not how I’d like to go down.
I stopped at local markets to see if they had the vegetable . At supermarket chains, I scoured the shelves . It wasn't until a trip to a Tesco inside of a gas station that I found a single plastic sleeve of dewy, wan celery sticks for five pounds. I jumped at the opportunity and bought the bag for a six-hour hour train ride ahead .
Something you might not have known about British celery is that it's unwell; decidedly un-crunchy, uniquely fragrant and dry, which I didn't know celery could be. But it still did its job: I had the sound and activity of it to keep me company on my journey as we moved across the British countryside. It was substantial enough to satisfy me, tasty enough to distract me, and crunchy enough to thoroughly annoy my fellow passengers and family members. Celery, Dr.
Which is all to say that quitting, for me, is most definitely not a verb but a gerund—a slow process that I continue to struggle with and evolve. But in the name of Wellness, I will keep trying.
