What should be the sequence First Walk and the do Pranayam Or First do Pranayam and then walk

Ans: One can walk connecting to breath.
For example measure your breath capacity through counting steps for inhalation and exhalation staying within your capacity.
This way you feel so refreshed with your walk and you can slowly increase the the number of steps once you are settled.thereby stretch your distance covered with the same range of breath.
The idea is one should never get breathless at the end.

If Pranayama and walk done at different times, Pranayama invokes Parasympathetic energy whereas walking activates sympathetic system.
So it is better do a walk and Pranayama at different timing. If you want to do both in the morning give a gap of two hours between the walk foolowed by pranayama

Hi I was alloted EE in rru . I am very confused about whether I should take the seat or not beacause they are calling for in person documents verification how is the hostel? Placements? Mess?

Ans: Hi Mega,
Please understand that based solely on your application, they have requested you to bring all your testimonials. Before applying, you should have asked the questions you mentioned. If you are not interested, someone else will benefit; if you are interested, please allow room for others.

If a stranger gives a wrong review, how will you handle that? Every person's experience is different. What is your goal—are you trying to match the course or not?

**Hostel:** Construct a house there, and then you can join the course.
**Mess:** Consider taking your mom with you so you won’t face any issues (though you might still eat unpleasant food outside).
**Placement:** Without learning the essential skills, you will not get a job. Instead, someone else may appear more qualified and secure the position.

You haven’t shared much about yourself. Are you a disciplined student? Do you have any bad habits? Do you actively participate in sports? How many hours do you spend on your education? How many hours do you spend on social media?

If the answers are not favorable, then follow this simple routine: Eat, sleep, and repeat. Enjoy life. That’s a nice solution I have provided.
