Rock Yoga


Was in Joshua Tree hanging with the all the cactus praying towards the heavens.
Solid crew of eight spreading out our crash pads, while boulders stood in random tadasana poses.
Even with us crawling and inching our way up, these solid friends kept their poise.
Found some places that have stood the test of time, even with the rumblings of the land.

Its always fun to imagine you are the only one there or has ever been there...
But my silent friends sit patiently, witnessing me as I explore this playground.
I feel like I could run away there and spend the rest of my life climbing towards my soul.
With the nights emblazoned with light from millions of stars.

It is good to get away from the asphalt and noise, stripping away this unrealized tension.
Clinging to slopers and crimps as my body utilizes the freedom that has been revealed through my yoga practice.
Skin slowly polishing holds as my sweat feeds the local flora.
It is good to connect to the Earth and into the recesses of my body, mind spirit... we are all one again :-)
