Back from Ubud…Bali

Back in Kuta, surfed airport left this evening until sunset with Johan Pontell, he is leaving for Sweden at the weekend. It was good to have a surf after spending 3 days drowning in a sea of oestrogen in the town known as Ubud (more to come on Ubud) The wave was not great today as the swell was hitting the reef in the wrong direction and most of the waves were closing out. Super busy with Australians in the sea today, I also experienced how rude Brazilians can be.

Ubud,

whilst I was in a restaurant in Ubud a female group of Holistic honeys were gathered at a nearby table, apparently they were experiencing a new sense of personal awakening as they were sat having a meal. I overheard their conversation and I vaguely interpreted from what I overheard that,.. they had returned from an ayervedic, reikied, energy balanced, yoga dance, pilates and rolfing enlightenment class with alexander technique and tantric breathing as the foundation for the healing of their wounded inner child, this it seems was combined and juxtaposed between discovering the true power of their earth mother connection within the safe yet free direction of their spiritually enlightened ashram gurus..(or something to that effect) Well whilst eating my Nasi Goreng (fried rice with an egg) a woman walked in and joined the group. When all whom were sat down asked her how was it for you, she replied “Seriously everyone, the velocity of positivity was just soo intense…” as this was said so projectively with a broad American accent I was really stopped in my tracks not knowing quite what to think, but I had to refrain with all self control from pi**ing myself from laughter soon after.. seriously the velocity of positivity was just sooo intense!…

Ubud, OK below are some photos from my few days with Skye and just generally walking around, there are images of many of the tropical flowers, views of the sunrises in the beautiful secluded paddy fields and Oh yes there are pictures of Skye in her bikini …just a brief note here I was not sure whether to post these shots due to their personal nature and whether or not Skye would mind..It was only when she said she wanted the shots as her Facebook profile picture I decided to post these. Me and Skye are good friends, no more and when we chat she often reminds me how my obsession with bodies and the human form leave her feeling upset and annoyed how my opinions represent and reinforce all the media bullshit so many women face on a daily basis. The pressure to stay slim and attractive upsets Skye as much as the next women out there. However Bali is a hot place and it is common place to see people wandering around in their underwear and bikinis due to the intense heat. Skye due to one of her “holistic honey” detox juicing regimes was feeling particular slender, svelte and confident about her body this weekend. She has issues about her body and skin similar to many other women. These shots which I think have captured her in great form will be a reminder to how things were when she was in her twenties and how things can be if she chooses to continue living a healthy life. “That which gets us there, will keep us there” Mr Rodriguez LA.. so until she asks me to take them down enjoy…Copyright Jason Lunn.com

  1. oh those holistic hunnies… all very well that I couldn’t stop laughing either, but then the thought occured the next day whilst walking to my erotic dancing and consciousness combo-class that I might count as one of them…nah. anytime you need another estroegen bath, you know where i live – you’ve got one more month to cash in before I have to relinquish the zen house and return to Brighton xxxxxxxxxx
