The (not so) “Secret Waterfall”

Today’s 5am class was a walking meditation. We had a few gentle prompts from our teacher, firstly remaining silent, then spending a small portion holding the person in front’s shoulders and closing our eyes as we walked. This would have been perfectly peaceful…if not for the raging cow charging through us at one point, dogs fighting (with each other thankfully not bothering us), and sand blowing in my eyes whilst standing in front of the beach 😂 we had a fun time nonetheless!

During our lunch break, Rachael, Sanne and I had decided to visit the (not so) “secret waterfall”. Given the limited time we jumped in a taxi, then hiked the last part. It was small in size (no niagra falls) but still a pretty little hike. There was an amazing Banyan Tree with beautiful winding roots above the ground. We had just enough time to grab a lovely lunch at the 60s Cafe (60’s music and Beatles themed, with cool decor and great music), before jumping in a tuk-tuk making it back just in the nick of time for afternoon classes.

We had a mosey round town after tea, did a bit of shopping and Rach made another four legged friend.

No teaching of the day as such, but very proud to have learned and run through the first Ashtanga series today! Now just to perfect the 94 or so poses and transitions 😅Read more
