“Sedona, Arizona resonates with the heart beat of the earth. You can feel a presence here that quickens the senses; thus, it feels like home for many. Sedona is an eye-dazzling gateway into the Colorado Plateau, the second largest plateau in the world.

Eons of the Earth’s creation is exposed in sinuous red and white canyons. These cliffs are a primordial force of crystalline rock that are embedded with prayers from many millennia of humans honoring this sacred earth.”
