Learning to Breathe One Woman’s Journey of Spirit and Survival

With a foreword by the Dalai Lama

January 2, 2000 Alison’s life was nearly cut short during a devastating bus accident on a remote jungle road in Laos. Suffering life threatening injuries, Alison drew upon her years of meditation practice, concentrating on every breath as if it were her last. Wright’s personally written memoir, “Learning to Breathe; One Woman’s Journey of Spirit and Survival,” chronicles this inspirational story of survival and years of rehabilitation, and her ongoing determination to recover and continue traveling the world as an intrepid photojournalist. The book details her ascent of Mt. Kilimanjaro as well as her circumambulation of Mt. Kailash in Tibet.

“Alison Wright is wonder… Her life is one of a true pilgrim and a seeker of truth. It is life of exploration, devotion and transformation by fire. There is muscle and tears here, and the fierce flame of inspiration. She’s the real deal.”

The Spirit of Tibet Portrait of a Culture in Exile

Photos and text by Alison Wright
Foreword by the Dalai Lama

Since 1959 more than 130,000 Tibetan refuges have fled Tibet to live in India, Nepal and Bhutan. This monograph of 176 color photographs of Tibetan life in exile captures the engaging spirit of Tibetan refugees living in the beautiful mountain settings of Dharamsala, northern India. From images of the Dalai Lama, monks and laypeople at work or prayer, to the rebuilt temples and schools teaching a new generation that had never even been exposed to world maps, Wright captures the preservation of this unique culture as it struggles to survive without a country.
