Looking forward to a break from this routine. I&#8217;ve started packing my stuff already and my books take up more space than everything I brought on this trip.

Next was learning to drink from the mouth and passing the water out the nose. I know what you&#8217;re thinking! \u00a0This skill is SO &#8216;useful&#8217;! Passing the salt water out the nose from the mouth was challenging but I managed to get it done before anyone else in the group! Helps to have at least something to be proud of here amongst super pretzels, barbies and robust Russians. \ud83d\ude09 Tomorrow morning we eat a strip of cloth, soaked either in salt or honey. Well, not really &#8216;eat&#8217; it but hold it at one end while the rest &#8216;cleanses&#8217; the passage\u00a0into the stomach. Not very excited about this event but will certainly give it a shot.<\/p>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both;text-align: center\"><a style=\"margin-left: 1em;margin-right: 1em\" title=\"\" href=\"http:\/\/https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/-4PlGI7ldiG0\/UTiPHvZIzaI\/AAAAAAAAAeE\/CnTVt0v_wmo\/s1024\/Photo%2525202013-03-05%2525208%25253A02%252520PM.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"blogsy-1362661194029.4924\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/-4PlGI7ldiG0\/UTiPHvZIzaI\/AAAAAAAAAeE\/CnTVt0v_wmo\/s500\/Photo%2525202013-03-05%2525208%25253A02%252520PM.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"180\" height=\"97\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both;text-align: center\"><a style=\"margin-left: 1em;margin-right: 1em\" href=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/-FJXy8rgg6k8\/UTiPMAy33rI\/AAAAAAAAAeM\/qHpPSqSnip4\/s1024\/Photo%2525202013-03-05%2525207%25253A47%252520PM.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"blogsy-1362661194011.8435\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/-FJXy8rgg6k8\/UTiPMAy33rI\/AAAAAAAAAeM\/qHpPSqSnip4\/s500\/Photo%2525202013-03-05%2525207%25253A47%252520PM.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"180\" height=\"102\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both;text-align: center\"><a style=\"margin-left: 1em;margin-right: 1em\" href=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/-tZd824wSHsw\/UTiPSKMjmhI\/AAAAAAAAAeU\/v23h_X6kJ6s\/s1024\/Photo%2525202013-03-03%2525207%25253A52%252520PM.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"blogsy-1362661194042.03\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/-tZd824wSHsw\/UTiPSKMjmhI\/AAAAAAAAAeU\/v23h_X6kJ6s\/s500\/Photo%2525202013-03-03%2525207%25253A52%252520PM.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"180\" height=\"161\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>This Sunday is the last day at the ashram!
