2007 RETREAT REVIEW: Days six to ten

Day six: Depart Nirarta Centre of Awareness , a short shopping trip to Klungung market, then touring the coastal road north with a stop at Tirtaganga Water Palace.

Driving Straight north to Tejakula, the Bali Sea for our last 4 days, at Gaia-Oasis Resort.

Day seven - nine: Personal Growth Sessions helped to support and integrate new awareness and insight, closure on the retreat and generate plans for applying growth to life at home.

Twice daily yoga complemented spa sessions for delicious body awareness.

Unexpected visitors offered crystal bowl and chanting ceremony to honor the full moon. Gaia tradition offers a monthly beach bonfire, the way to which is paved with banana trunk lanterns.

Another unexpected gift was a rare occurrence of a High Priest blessing the lands of Gaia in an austere and richly adorned ceremony attended by the all the guests and villagers. The evening ended with Balinese dancers in full costume.

Leisure time is spent swimming, beach combing, watching the fishermen, shopping, munching chocolate & coconut bathed bananas, journal writing, making new friends & spa treatments.

A last evening birthday celebration Bali style followed by the retreat wrap up and goodbyes.

Day 10: The kilometer path between the main road and Gaia Oasis is traversed by motorbike!

Then south to new adventures past Lake Batur through the mountain pass of north Bali.
