Joshua Tree Yoga Intensive Days 2 and 3

Yoga isn't just about the physical poses. It's about how you approach the poses mentally. It's about the people. Not about comparing physical bodies in that moment, but about learning how each person approaches their practice and how they entwine it with their own, personal journeys. It's about what we can learn from each other, and ourselves. It's about being vulnerable and realizing that sometimes you have to accept your limitations, take a step backward, and figure out if you can move past them at a later time. It's about being open, and adventurous. It's about self love. 🫶🏼

Thank you @cathymadeoyoga and @azure.wolfe (and all the strong, beautiful people I met) for all the love, the support, the lessons, and another amazing weekend in a beautiful place with beautiful people and beautiful connections!

Quick question...

What are you ready to let go of?

Autumn is a season of change, reflection, and release.

On Sunday, November 1 at 9:30am, Lindsey Ewert is leading RELEASE INTO AUTUMN: QIGONG + SOUND, a two-hour workshop designed to help you slow down, reconnect, and make some room for what’s next.

We’ll explore autumn through traditional Qigong teachings and the Five Element tradition, with a focus on the Metal element, the lungs and large intestine, and themes of letting go, courage, integrity, and what matters most.

The morning includes:
Teaching + reflection
One hour of guided Qigong
Breathwork, sound, visualization, and gentle movement
A short Yin transition
A 20-minute sound bath

No Qigong experience is necessary. Just come as you are, wear something comfy, and give yourself two hours to slow down.

Sunday, November 1 | 9:30–11:30am
$47 for non-members, $37 for members | Lindsey Ewert

If you’ve been feeling the pull to release something, reset, or simply get quiet for a while, this one is for you.

Class can be found on our schedule under the EVENTS tab or through the QR code on the flyer above.
Reserve your spot at MORTAL. See you soon.

Gist of 2026 Joshua Tree National Park Yoga Intensive

It’s been a week already since the yoga retreat in Joshua Tree NP led by @cathymadeoyoga and @azure.wolfe .

I already miss all the positive vibes in the desert and the yoga community with likeminded people. It was such a precious moment and I left my heart there.

Since I came back from the retreat, I’ve had a really check and realized that the retreat was a very special moment when my soul was cleansed. I will keep cherishing the beautiful and unforgettable memory.

Till next time. Amen😇

The key principle:-
Flexibility allows you to enter a yoga posture; strength and conditioning help you control, stabilize, and sustain it.
A balanced yoga practice should develop both strength and flexibility, along with balance, mobility, breathing, and relaxation. Not every yoga style provides the same conditioning stimulus, so additional resistance training may be useful depending on the practitioner’s goals.
For yoga teachers and fitness trainers: the goal is not simply to help students achieve a deeper pose, but to help them develop the strength and control to practise that pose safely and effectively.#yoga #trending #viral #fitnessmotivation #fitness

Something I will always strive to do in my life is continue to learn, expand my worldview, get to know myself in each chapter of life, and learn about the world & the Universe around me…

And this weekend @studio29yoga and @joshuatreenps was another one of those profound experiences that I am so glad I said yes to.

To experience the constellation of beautiful connections among this miraculous crew of yogis, and then immerse myself in the desert landscape that is mystical Joshua Tree… to look up at the stars and remember that we are a part of this vast galaxy, and an even larger Universe ~ what an ethereal experience to witness. 🌀🌌

I laid on a picnic table looking up at the stars for what seemed like hours. With each passing moment, more lights began to appear, and at one point, I felt like I could truly see the entire Universe.

And I remembered: that’s just how far I can expand, too… infinitely. ♾️

It would be a disservice to myself not to invest in my growth, just as it would be a disservice to yourself not to invest in yours.

So here’s your reminder…
say YES. ♾️✨🤍

DAY 3 (Final day of Joshua Tree National Park Yoga Intensive):

- Selfie photos with yoga fellows (mostly yoga teachers)
- Dinner at The Copper Room in Yucca Valley & Snake Bite Roadhouse

It was such a great opportunity to get to know these like-minded people who are all dedicated yoga practitioners.

This was my 2nd yoga retreat which, like the first retreat, provided me with a lot of inspiration and encouragement.

I learned several new arsanas, how to do hands-on assist, and meditation.

Special thanks to @cathymadeoyoga and @azure.wolfe for keeping building new communities of yoga.

Doing yoga in a magnificent nature like @joshuatreenps is simply surreal and rewarding. Being with these like-minded beautiful souls helped me heal from the relentless stresses in this world as well as find peace and courage. This will surely be another beautiful memory in life.

Looking forward to meeting you all at another yoga retreat!

People often talk about how social media isn’t real life and how they’ve been “catfished” or the person they were corresponding with didn’t meet the expectations they’d created in their mind once they met them in person…

But not a lot of people talk about when you meet someone in real life after meeting them online and them being more magnificent than you could have ever even conceptualized.✨

That’s what I experienced yesterday with @cathymadeoyoga, @azure.wolfe , and this beautiful group of souls. Oh how grateful I am to be able to meet the coolest people irl!!!

I already knew this group would be absolutely amazing after spending hundreds of hours training with Cathy last summer, but wow this group of humans so quickly connected and it made me feel so so grateful for communities like this.

The ones we each are individually creating and how they all weave together into a wonderful blanket of beautiful beings!!!

So excited for the rest of this magical weekend in Joshua Tree with the most kind-hearted and adventurous souls. 🤍🏜️✨

BREATHE INTO AUTUMN: Qigong + Sound Workshop w/ Lindsey
NOVEMBER 01, 2026 @ 9:30a-11:30a | $47
Sign up through our EVENTS tab.

You’ve heard the benefits of qigong. Now it’s time to feel them as we fall into autumn.

Autumn invites us to slow down, reflect on what we value and make room for change.

Bring your friends and join Lindsey Ewert for a two-hour workshop exploring autumn through traditional Qigong teachings, gentle movement and sound. In the Five Element tradition, autumn is associated with the Metal element, the lungs and the large intestine. We’ll explore these seasonal connections alongside themes of letting go, navigating change, courage, and integrity.

A full hour of guided Qigong follows, incorporating mindful movement, breath awareness, the soft “sss” sound, and visualization. After a gentle transition to rest, we’ll settle into a 20-minute sound bath before closing together.

No previous Qigong experience is necessary. Wear comfortable clothing and bring water.

This workshop includes:

☐ Exploring Qigong in a beginner-friendly setting

☐ Gentle movement and greater body awareness

☐ Developing awareness of the breath

☐ Taking time to slow down and unwind

☐ Learning autumn’s traditional Five Element associations

☐ Reflecting on change, letting go, and what matters most

☐ Exploring themes of courage and integrity

☐ Experiencing stillness and rest through sound
