This cactus is insane! They live to be over 200 years old and are immensely tall, like giants towering over the desert. Saguaro cacti only live in the Sonoran desert and are a protected keystone species. It’s illegal to touch them. And they’re a cactus so maybe it’s a good idea not to touch them! Would you be interested in joining me here in Arizona for a yoga + hiking + healing retreat @civanaresort There are so many hikes, classes, excursions and healing activities here that I definitely want to come back! #civana #civanaresort This weekend I’m teaching in San Francisco @lovestoryyoga and I hope to see you there 😊 Next workshops: Adjustment Clinic and Mysore Week in Miami in February and then Malaysia, Vietnam, Taipei and Cincinnati in March.

One of oldest living beings on the planet lives in the Sonoran and Mojave desert. Do you have any idea what it is? It’s called the creosote bush. It isn’t the cactus behind me but we saw it on the amazing hikes we went on. The oldest one alive today is 12,000 years old. It has a beautiful fragrance that gets released when it rains. And it can live without water for up to 2 years. Native American trips used the plant for all sorts medicinal purposes. Have you ever seen it? And…. Which one do you prefer? 1 or 2. All the magical cactus of Arizona are incredible @civanaresort #civana #civanaresort This weekend I’m teaching in San Francisco @lovestoryyoga and I hope to see you there 😊 Next workshops: Adjustment Clinic and Mysore Week in Miami in February and then Malaysia, Vietnam, Taipei and Cincinnati in March.
