Namaste all!!!!
The group is very happy to let you all know that we are all at peace and found tranquility in our lives….ok maybe not completely peaceful and tranquil, but we are getting closer. We had an amazing time at the Prema Shanti Yoga and Meditation Retreat center in the Daintree Rain forest. 
Fun fact the Daintree rain forest is the oldest rain forest in the world!!!! Other wise the retreat center was in the middle of the rain forest and rain by the two nicest and probably most peaceful people in the world who are Mara, and Janardhan. They are a happy married couple who have been running Prema Shanti for the past 17 years. The two of them are leaders in yoga and meditation which is the center focus in their lives and are very passionate about it.
To walk you through a normal day at Prema Shanti was like, we would wake up roughly around 6:45 am and begin the day with an hour long meditation and Dharma talk which would be around the different aspects of the spiritual life that centered around the ideas of how to focus your spiritual energy and achieving spiritual success. After the relax meditation and the spiritual chat we would have a beautiful and healthy breakfast of granola, fruit, corn flakes, yogurt, and an assortment of tea. Also, all of the meals over the past 5 days was vegetarian. After breakfast we would do siva where we would work hard around Prema Shanti for an hour or two making the retreat center looking amazing. Then we would have the remainder of the day as a free day where we would go swimming in the most beautiful swimming holes the blue or green hole. The blue hole was for women only designated by the aboriginal people saying it would bring bad luck to men if they were to swim in the blue hole. So as a group we would swim in the green hole to enjoy the company of one another. 
After an amazing swim we would explore around the Daintree National Park seeing the beauty of the rain forest, and the beautiful tropical beaches of the area, or we would stay at Prema Shanti by relaxing, reading, writing, or practicing our meditation skills. Then we would meet back up at 5:30 to do a yoga and meditation practice for an hour and a half. For majority of the group yoga was an amazing experience where as some of us struggle in the practice. After yoga we would have an amazing dinner, then go to bed shortly after dinner. It was an amazing time at Prema Shanti and the group had a spectacular time. We would like to thank Mara and Janardhan for an amazing time that none of us would forget!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
