B for...


...breathing. The most natural thing to do. Your body doesn't ask you if you want to breathe. Until of course, it tells you to do something about your breathing when you have a cold and the nose houses stuff it shouldn't.

S for strength. The most natural thing for the body. Until of course we put the bed in the room where we spend a hell lot of time and where this bed constantly blocks a range of movements that our body is naturally made for.

We can't survive without breathing. We can survive a long time without strength. Can we survive a long time enjoyably without strength?

3 SHK


It's that time of the year. And we got down to cleaning our room a few days back. Moved a lot of things. Rearranged a few.

Just for that day of cleaning, I moved the two yummy-colored kettlebells, 12-kg blue and 16-kg yellow, under a low shelf. Right when I was in that act of sliding them under the shelf, just for a moment, I wondered if I was doing the right thing. Would the shelf hide the kettlebells from me? And would that hiding affect their use in any way?

And this happened. I didn't come to lift them at all for the next 3-4 days. I didn't even touch them.

3 BHK = 3 Bedroom + Hall + Kitchen at the main spaces in the house

3 SHK = 3 Strengthroom (which allows for good sleeping too, if you have a doubt) + Hall + Kitchen
