#OpportunityKnocks Day 6 WINNER @queenofkings41: "My #opportunityknocks I had my first cigarette when I was six. My brother was outside smoking and I went out and asked him what it tasted like. From there, if he smoked when I was with him, I did so I could be "cool" like him and his friends. Then in high school, I became a regular smoker. I became a walking freight train. I always talked about quitting, but never could. Sometimes I would try the patch, gum, cold turkey, etc. never seemed to ever work. My son would ask me to quit. I'd try for a month and stop. I couldn't imagine my life without cigarettes. Then in September 2013, I made the conscious effort to at least slow down. I would only smoke when I was completely stressed. Then I was often finding myself stressed more than I remembered ever being. In halfway through October, I found#yoga. I haven't picked up a cigarette since finding Yoga. I never imagined I could replace my addiction to nicotine with yoga. I have never felt healthier. 6 months down so far. If stressed, I roll out my mat for a few sun salutations. Yoga walked in at the perfect time! I've also manage to get my best friend and sister into yoga #livethelifeyoulove #opportunityknocks #liquidoactive@liquidoactive @kinoyoga: Join #opportunityKnocks Challenge!
