Sedona Yoga Festival 2020

Unlock your manifestation magic with mantras and movement and raise your vibration with the power of positive thought.  We will begin by centering; linking breath to movement to awaken and energize the body. Mindfully transitioning into our easy/moderate hike, breathing in the fresh air and connecting with nature. Each step allows us to find peace, serenity and clarity so that we can tap into our fullest potential by truly envisioning what it is that we want to manifest. At the peak of the hike we will enjoy a flowing yoga practice with Epic views of Sedona's red rock formations. On the way down you will be encouraged to stay present and connected to mother earth moving quietly and carefully. We will finish our journey with an empowering meditation to leave you feeling inspired for what's to come!

A specialized yoga hike to help participants connect to their bodies, listen to their hearts/feel their essence, using Earth medicine (shamanic journey). it will feel like a walk about (sacred journey) designed to connect to Nature, open the senses, connect to the Elements, heading to a beautiful view point to put down our mats in a circle.  We'll have a ceremony with drums, bells, Tibetan Bowls, and exercises designed to go deep within to connect to our authentic Truth/Divine Self, guided meditation and a yoga flow to open up any blockages in the body, use earth energies for healing and clearing so students can live in their Truth and manifest a life of joy.  

We open our journey by creating sacred space, calling in the 4 directions, connecting with our sacred hearts & earth/ancestors/elements.  We will walk slowly in silence to harmonize our physical senses to the heart beat of the earth (inspired by Shinrin-Yoku, a Japanese forest bathing practice).   Enjoy a harmonizing yoga flow with intentional breath and sankalpa, yoga asanas are customized to best fit you to connect deeply to your body.  After a 15-30 minute earthing yoga sequence, surrender into the sights and sounds of nature's symphony & shamanic instruments allowing and surrendering on the rocks.  Awaken reborn.  Entire experience is transformational & deeply healing, geared towards anyone ready for big changes physically & spiritually.  Activate your higher senses like telepathy, intuition, and clairvoyance.

Explore the internal energies of the subtle body and the potent energy of the land through practices on the red rocks that amplify the inner process. In this class, you will learn what a vortex is and how to become aware of the energy of one. We will explore our own energy (Qi/Prana) through movement and practices that activate and enhance our own internal energies through asana, pranayama, qi gong, and guided meditation.

Remembering who you are...seems important these days. Our society isn't really setup to allow for such notions and all the veins which stem from this core expansion such as bi-locating, great self love, understanding of universal the energy flow, the ability to miraculously heal your self and others, creating your own reality and times lines, etc.... Getting in touch with your unlimited potential as the powerful being you are with the support of the Sedona vortex is one way we remove the box regarding a Sedona experience. Integrating QiGong into the experience is always part of the practice.
