"The biggest mistake new smokers make is rushing," Nina warns. She strongly advises taking smaller puffs. Instead of a large, greedy drag, take a short, gentle pull. A smaller volume of smoke is inherently less irritating to your sensitive throat and lungs. You can always take another puff in a moment if you want more.

The smoke is optional. But the breath… the breath is everything.”
