retreat reviews (continued)


On the evenings that we didn't do meditation you might have found us hanging out at the Daintree River Ice Cream Company which has very yummy ice cream flavours, all natural tropical flavours like wattle seed, mango, coconut, sour sop Deeelciousssss!!! but one of the biggest highlights for me was the rainforest walk at Coopers Creek, which Karyn had organised as part of the retreat. It was so fantastic and so was our guide Prue who had so much knowledge about everything. While we were on the walk we saw a beautiful cassowary and her chick amongst all the other amazing things that make up the rainforest. *****I am giving it five stars. Perfect!

Dominque Ng:

'The Daintree Forest was a special backdrop for our mid winter retreat. Premashanti is surrounded by this pristine landscape.

Each morning, emerging out of the nighttime quiet, we would practice to a forest symphony of birds. Being able to identify them, as the days progressed.

From the elevated practice room it felt like we were practicing amongst the forest.

We would breakfast together on the deep verandah after practice followed by a dip at the blue hole, a short walk through the forest to an aquamarine pool apparently blue from minerals, beautiful on the skin.
