    Journey into Khao Sok's Morning Soundscape

    Journey into Khao Sok's Morning Soundscape

    In this very special episode, we will take you to the heart of the Khao Sok National Park. From the delightful accommodations at Our Jungle Camp Eco-Resort, we take a shuttle to Cheow Lan Lake. We take a long-tail boat and embark on a journey deep into the bright green lake, surrounded by limestone cliffs with lush tropical vegetation. After an hour and a half, we arrive at our floating cabins, greeted by the sounds of the birds. We go on a tour to meet the local wildlife and encounter a family of elephants taking a refreshing bath in the lake. After a long day, we go to bed, soothed by the smooth sway of the lake and the lullaby of the jungle. We wake up early the next morning, energized by the unique dawn chorus of Khao Sok's birds, cicadas, crickets and frogs.

    Greet the day with ocean waves and pranayama breathing in Samui Island

    Start your day with a soulful and energizing sun salutation practice. Beat the sunrise and head over to Grandfather and Grandmother rocks. Take a seat and ease into the immersive silence of dawn. Close your eyes, and let yourself be carried away by the rhythm of the ocean waves crashing against the rocks. Engage in an energizing pranayama breathing practice to activate your mind and body. As the sun begins to rise, tune into the sounds of the jungle creatures greeting the new day. Allow your senses to fully awaken to this mesmerizing symphony and let the melodic voices of the Samui wildlife spark your curiosity and rejuvenate your spirit.
