BREATHING
— — RISHIKESH INDIA 2016 — — The alarm goes off it’s 4 a a a m m In one hour Pranayama starts a a a a a a a a breathing exercise and our first lesson of the the day Despite the the fact that I have a a a a long day ahead of me I put on on my running clothes tie my shoes and head off It’s pitch black outside I start to run through the lantern- lit village out towards the the jungle and along the the Ganges the holy river The wild dogs follow me as usual it’s nice to have some company No one else is awake Where the the village ends and the the lights run out I patter along along cautiously along along the narrow road It’s hot stuffy a a a a bit eerie and soon I turn around filled with energy for the day
