1. Exercising

Start Life Right and healthy by exercising regularly. Because quitting drug addiction can make you more stressful, then don't make drugs run away again. Start practicing to divert your attention to sports. Joining in a fitness center or gym is a good solution. But even if you want to practice with a personal trainer it doesn't matter too.

2. Often meditate

Drug addiction is not trivial and to stop it is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand because there are always obstacles. Meditate to make your heart and the mind is calmer because stress due to no longer taking drugs can often appear. When meditating, you will be better able to focus on body awareness and body breathing.

Just look for a safe, quiet and comfortable place to sit cross-legged. Then continue to close your eyes and focus on breathing for 10-15 minutes. Take a deep breath so that the heart and mind are far from anxiety. Attention that is fully placed on breathing will make the body more relaxed as well.

3. Doing Yoga

Practicing yoga is not only useful to make the body more flexible, elastic, strong and balanced. Yoga as a combination of meditation and exercise will be very helpful. Especially for drug addicts who are very intent on quitting their dependence. Stress will come very easily for those who break up with drugs. So from that, setting aside around 30 minutes a week several times for yoga is a good idea. The mind and body will become much fresher and better.

4. Steer clear of the place and environment of drug users

Many cases and experiences of drug addicts who fail to stop completely from their dependence. And this is due to still hanging out with drug user friends. Or play in an area full of drug users and alcoholics. You never know how strong your faith is. Especially Deciding to only quit drugs but not break up with the environment and these people.

5. Busying yourself with positive activities

People who have already been addicted to drugs and then managed to stop do not necessarily close the possibility of returning to drugs again. So, as much as possible busy yourself with a variety of positive activities, such as developing a new hobby.

6. Strengthen Faith

The key to strong faith is to worship a lot, pray and get closer to God. If you used to be addicted to drugs because of stress and medicine is your best escape. At this time God should be the main escape of all your problems. Through prayer and worship, the heart will be calmer.
