As I have stated in an earlier blog, I live a survival life for 2 years and learned way more than I even imagined that I could. It was a God send for me to find myself in that situation and to conquor it and do well in it. I even thanked the person who put me in that situation, as I would not have known how to survive without having exprienced it.
I spent most of my day outdoors as well as most evenings until dark. So it was an incredible spiritual experience that I will never forget. I hope this begins your journey since its possible we are all going to be confronted with just such a journey. If not, then nothing is lost, and more knowledge is gained that can help us in our everyday urban life as well.

Dosha is a Sanskrit word which means ‘the constitution of the mind and body’. All three doshas are present in every cell, tissue and organ, for movement, metabolism and fluidity and are key components of our lives.
