Arizona Sacred Journeys & Healing
Retreats
This is
a soul pilgrims land of great beauty
and magic that invites you to seek refuge
and Spiritual renewal, to quest for vision, healing and
wonder of the soul. Whether on a scenic hiking
tour through sacred red rock canyons or sitting in a vortex
of gentle wind, it is an experience of self discovery that
somehow accelerates your personal growth. Spirit and
body, heart and soul come together in beauty. To journey
into this vast valley can be like a shamanic retrieval of the
soul, a blessing from the breath of stars.
It is here, for me, that the word home has profound meaning. For this
shaman's medicine land is a doorway to what is most important
in life. It is my home and soul's retreat, and it is
my joy to share it with you on one of my many soul journeys.
Aleh - zon is
a Papago (Tohono O'odam) Indian word that is the origin of the name Arizona. It
was the name given to a deep healing springs near the Mexican border.
All that I do is about helping people connect to the the deep springs
of their own soul and beingness and ultimately to the center where
all the deep springs meet in healing and oneness.
It is my choice to take you where few visit or even know about, places not
overwhelmed with the buzz of tourism, so you may feel at home with the ancient
spirits and the ancient earth. I have been working as a soul and tour
guide for 15 years in this sacred valley.
I hope that I may serve you in some way, whether through a soul journey session or
gathering spirit medicine on the land, a retreat, a song, a chant, a drum
beat, a soulful hiking
tour,a myth,
a story, a teaching, the voice of the flute so your soul
may journey to its truest home.
The Native Americans that still live in this valley are Yavapai and Tonto
Apache. This sacred land of red rocks & the Verde Valley may
have been the red city of the south, Palatkwapi, of the Hopi Indians They have
a wonderful myth about how these special spots on the earth came about.The
Twin Hero of the South pole, Palonghoya, went into deep meditation and searched
with his mind throughout the universe for the heart beat of the Great
Spirit. And when he found it, he began to beat his drum, drawing that
which gives movement to all things to the heart of the earth where it began
to beat. And that heartbeat then pulsed out to the surface of the earth giving
birth to life. And those places on the surface of the earth where the drum
beat is the strongest, power spot, sacred place, vortex, calls
out to those who will listen. Calls out like the voice of home, the great
mystery . . . and waits . . . Are you listening? Perhaps you have
been listening and you don't even know it. Even if you just accidentally vacation
here it will work its magic on you. There are magical places of soulfullness
that so few know of in Sedona and the Verde Valley.
