Follow these quick and easy steps to create a spiritual retreat. You can create a retreat at home, or find a special place in nature to reconnect to your divine essence.

1. Imagine the life you want.

In your mind's eye see yourself, living the life you desire, and deserve free from physical and emotional pain. See yourself healthy, full of energy, awaking each morning spending time in silence, and connecting to the divine essence inside. Free from self sabotaging habits that restrict the flow of energy and vital essence within.

2. Take time away even if only for 30 minutes.

Taking time away from your life can give you the needed break to stop the chaos accepted as "normal". Often, you never know how stressed you are until you take a break from your routine.

3. Spend time in nature.

Spending time in nature brings clarity and allows you to release your stress. Just like the stress that has become internalized and accepted. The lack of direction and missing connection to the divine has been lost in constant business that plagues our society. Stop the chaos and be still.

4. Breathe away your stress.

The first reaction to stress is to hold your breath and tighten your body, and shut down your emotions. This emotional chain reaction is sure to give you a headache along with many other body complaints.

5. Create a spiritual retreat.

A Spiritual Retreat is something that you can create for yourself, or find a spiritual coach to assist you on your journey. The first step is to acknowledge your need for a retreat. The second step is to commit time to be still either in your own home in a special bath or by creating a spiritual altar. Until you can escape to a spiritual retreat of your choice create your own. An aromatherapy bath with special candles and soft relaxing music can calm your mind and rejuvenate your spirit.

I love the Red Rocks in Sedona and you won't find anything more beautiful anywhere in the world. You won't have to hunt to find them they are everywhere you look.

The reason I love the red rocks is they are a rare rock formation not found in many places on the earth. The red comes from the high iron content in the rock formations.

I love the hiking trails located in all directions. People travel from around the world to hike these trails. A hike is a good way to get out among the rocks and soak in the views.

The hiking trails are both easy and challenging and give you as much of a workout as you wish to set up for yourself. Oak Creek Canyon is one of the most beautiful and sought after trails-and one of my favorites.

I love the sunrises and the sunsets. We have some of the most beautiful sunrises and sunsets in the world. When the time comes for sunset you find standing room only on Airport Mesa lookout point.

Our sunsets are quoted as being the most breath taking and inspirational experiences in the world.
Arizona's spectacular sunsets reach their pinnacle here. If you don't like the crowds at the airport lookout, try on the patio at Canyon Breeze restaurant. Another less-crowded alternative is the first turnout going up the hill on Schnebly Road.

I love the vortex sites. Another natural wonder of the world. Because of the high iron content and the high crystalline content of the limestone white rocks the combination of rock formations form a natural magnetic vortex energy.

The energy of the sites, are easy for me, as I have been a practicing energy healer for over twenty five years. Some people feel the energy and others consider it new age woo-woo. But most agree that they feel a special peace in Sedona that they have not experienced anywhere else. The beauty along with the peaceful feeling have a large percentage of the people who visit Sedona considering making it their home.
