6 Great Yoga Hikes

Author Gina De Millo, cited Sedona Spirit Yoga & Hiking as one of six outstanding hiking adventures in the United States. Gina wrote— “Sedona Spirit will guide you through several vortex sites on yoga-hike trips ranging from a four-hour jaunt to a five-day retreat. You’ll brush through fragrant fields of sage and juniper, past flowering prickly pear cacti, and dip into canyons below red rock spires to explore ancient Native American cliff dwellings. Along the hike trail, you’ll stop to learn gentle Hatha yoga poses, breathing exercises, relaxation techniques, meditation and chakra balancing.”

Head Trips

Writing about a dozen “Holidays for Body and Soul,” author Katy Koontz included Sedona Spirit Yoga & Hiking vortex retreats as one of the spiritual vacations that “have a more lasting impact than your typical see-all-the-sights or lie-on-the-beach getaway that leaves you will little more than some souvenirs and a tan.” Recommending our Sedona Spirit Yoga & Hiking vortex retreats, Katy wrote—“Adventure with Sedona Spirit Yoga & Hiking includes American Indian spirituality rituals (sweat lodges, medicine wheels, etc.), plus daily hike to power vortexes in Arizona’s red rock country.”

ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE
November 2001
More Than Skin Deep

Alternative Medicine Magazine sent author Dawn Gallager with her photographer to attend a Sedona Spirit Yoga & Hiking retreat yoga class and go on a private vortex yoga hike to Bell Rock with Johanna.

In her article about the experience, Dawn wrote—“With a soft, clear voice, Johanna gently led us into triangle stands, the plough, cobra and more, making sure we did the poses correctly. Then we went to Bell rock for hiking and yoga stretching amid views that were absolutely breathtaking…. Johanna believes that yoga is so much more than postures; it is a way of life that can lead to vibrant health, well-being and peace.”

ESSENCE
January 2001
Sojourns for the Soul
Essence Magazine sent Author Akissi Britton to attend a 3-Day Sedona Spirit Yoga & Hiking vortex retreat following a stressful time in her life. For their Lifestyle and Travel Section, Akissi Britton participated in and wrote about the retreat experience firsthand. In her article, Akissi wrote—“After settling in, Johanna led my two fellow participants and me in a guided yoga meditation.

As I inhaled and exhaled deeply, visualizing my breath entering and leaving my body, I imagined the defensive barriers I’d erected for survival slowly crumbling. In the stillness that our meditation encouraged, I began once again to hear my inner voice whisper that everything would be okay.”

Akissi went on to describe the positive impact of the Sedona Spirit vortex yoga hikes, a healing didgeridoo concert, and a Native American sweat lodge. She ended her article saying—“It wasn’t until later that I realized how carefully planned the retreat had been. Each activity took me further and further, as if to say, “Now you’re ready for a little more.” And I am ready—ready for a new year of love and healing.”
