The aesthetics of hookah smoking presupposes a relaxed atmosphere and a cozy room. That is why in many entertainment establishments there are hookah rooms or halls. There are also some unspoken rules to follow while smoking.
It is necessary
- - hookah
- - coal tongs
- - tobacco (maassel)
- - water
- - replaceable mouthpiece
Instructions
Step 1
To avoid unpleasant consequences, do not smoke hookah on an empty stomach. It is even more dangerous to add strong alcoholic drinks to the flask. This can lead to intoxication and poisoning, because hookah smoking is not a harmless process in itself. Do not drink alcohol or smoke hookah at the same time. It is best to brew green tea or hibiscus.
Step 2
Get into a relaxed position. To do this, in specialized shops or in the same hookah rooms there are small pillows on which you can sit or recline. If the hookah is tall, it should be on the floor, and if you decide to try its decorative mini-version, then it can be placed on a low table.
Step 3
While smoking, draw in the smoke through the mouthpiece. Inhalation should be accompanied by a gurgle of liquid that you poured into the flask. There are no definite rules for smoking, on the contrary, the imposition of “one's own” way of inhaling or retaining smoke contradicts the hookah aesthetics. The main thing is to take breaks of at least a couple of minutes. Be sure to use a replaceable mouthpiece, otherwise there is a high risk of catching an infectious disease.
Step 4
If you experience a bitter taste while smoking, you must check the tightness of the entire device. Usually a damaged tube can cause trouble. In this case, you should stop smoking, at least until the pipe is replaced with a new one.
Step 5
One smoking session lasts 25-30 minutes, until the tobacco burns out. After that, it is better to throw it away. And it is advisable to stop, and not light up a new one. The fact is that the hours-long process of enjoying the fragrant smoke and unhurried conversations create the illusion of wasting time. At the same time, after a long smoking period, nausea, dizziness or other troubles may appear "unexpectedly".
