What is Spiritual Healing?
Before diving into the best spiritual healing locations in Sedona, let’s understand exactly what spiritual healing is. Spiritual healing refers to healing practices and methods, such as energy healings. These healing practices are focused on mending (and tending to!) your core essence – including subtle energy, psychic and soul awareness – as opposed to healing physical or medical ailments.
The goals of spiritual healing are to release energetic blockages, traumas, limiting beliefs and fears that cause disconnection from your authentic self and full potential to align with God or Spirit or the energy of the Universe (whatever feels right to you to call it). Aligning these layers of yourself can open portals for grace, intuition, creative flow and profound transformation!
In fact, the very creation of Sedona Soul Adventures came about when I experienced a profound spiritual re-awakening amid these vortex energies over 25 years ago! I arrived in Sedona as an emotionally-depleted soul (and burned out lawyer) who was seeking some well-deserved rest and a way out of the emptiness of a lucrative, yet lifeless career. Just three days of soaking in Sedona’s restorative red rock vortex energy shifted the entire course of my life!
During those three days I had an amazing session with an incredible spiritual healer. In a vision I received the message, “You must change your life and leave your law practice now, or you’re going to die like your mother did.” So I followed the call to start over – personally and professionally! I spent the next six months closing my law practice and then the following three years doing my own personal healing in the red rocks of Sedona. I would come here for a month at a time working with the incredible Practitioners who have been drawn here from all over the world to do their work.
I moved here permanently in 2001 and founded Sedona Soul Adventures in 2002, so that people from around the world could experience the same transformations which had happened for me. And now, over 20 years later, we have helped thousands of people from across the globe experience deep spiritual healing that has transformed their lives and relationships!
Ultimately, spiritual healing is about coming back into alignment with your Soul’s purpose, reconnecting with the Universe, expanding consciousness and awakening to deeper truths of unconditional love, oneness and beauty that especially mystical places like Sedona often awaken in us.

Allowing spiritual healing can facilitate access to and embodiment of your Highest Self. Any pain, limiting beliefs or generational baggage causing disconnection can be transmuted through dedicated spiritual or energy healing sessions with world class spiritual healers and daily practices. Spiritual seekers visiting Sedona often share how years of therapy pale in comparison to a three or four day Soul Adventure!
Over the past 20-plus years, we have transformed the lives of tens of thousands individuals and couples utilizing our Sedona Proven Process.
Our Sedona Proven Process:
- Each Retreat Intensive is custom designed for each person or couple
- All the sessions are private, one-on-one or two-on-one (couples)
- Working with the Master Practitioners of Sedona (we have over 60)
- We find, release and heal the Core Wounds, patterns, blocks, traumas, fears and limiting beliefs (what we like to call “the gunk”), that are holding you back from the life or relationship of your dreams and bring you into connection on all the levels (physical, mental, emotional and spiritual) and give you tools and ongoing support to make sure the transformations last a lifetime.
Finding, releasing and healing the “gunk” is the essence of spiritual healing.
In essence, spiritual healing modalities share the common goal of helping you remember, realign and reconnect to your essential Spirit or Soul essence. Sedona contains naturally occurring vortexes and sacred spaces that profoundly support and accelerate the positive impacts of dedicated spiritual healing work with its metaphysical properties!
That’s why Sedona has an almost mythical reputation for renewing the mind, body and spirit far beyond expectation. Core wounds–even those hidden for decades–have a way of effortlessly floating to the surface for resolution in Sedona. Similarly, visions, creative inspiration and access to higher guidance flows as if on command when spending time amidst the red rocks.
But for now, let’s explore some of the top locations for maximizing spiritual healing across Sedona’s sacred landscape. These famous energy portals are known to offer tangible shifts from stuck-ness to serendipity! When you do a Sedona Soul Adventure we can incorporate hikes to these places to directly connect in with the energy for this spiritual healing or make arrangements to do sacred ceremonies in these amazing places.
The Best Sedona Locations for Spiritual Energy Healing
Cathedral Rock: A Sacred Climb for Spiritual Awakening
Visiting the magnificent and towering Cathedral Rock often sparks a deeper soul awareness in visitors. With its vast pillars soaring high and framed by signature Sedona sandstone, Cathedral Rock channels the ultimate infusion of celestial inspiration.
Cathedral Rock, with its crownlike peak, is thought to possess a feminine energy, which has offered visitors a sense of emotional balance, inner tranquility and an awakening of inner perceptions. Many find the base trailhead as grounding and as serene as a cathedral! It’s as if the Cathedral Rock vortex specifically amplifies our connection to Source Energy, inspiring in us a heightened creativity and soul evolution. Couples, families and solo sojourners – hundreds daily and millions annually – cannot all be delusional about experiencing an unearthly recharging within themselves!
If that weren’t profound enough, the panorama views in all directions never cease to amaze, with glimpses of neighboring energy centers and Sedona’s quaint architecture down below. As the sun sets into fiery orange hues behind these mammoth stone giants, many people describe suddenly tapping into the swirling cosmic energy fields that are accessible here–sparking a tangible flood of belonging, revelation and psychic activation.

Let Cathedral Rock’s vortex energy awaken your deeper consciousness to receive spiritual revelations!
Boynton Canyon: Sedona’s Natural Healing Oasis
Just as Cathedral Rock stands in its natural, regal state, the sacredness of Boynton Canyon equally offers the spirit a powerful spiritual energy healing through its fern-blanketed sanctuaries. The highly-concentrated and magnetic Sedona vortex energy fosters emotional release and the letting go of past burdens.
Boynton Canyon is immersed in red sandstone, and its trail weaves through varied terrain – from smooth, curved walls and scattered vegetation to steep inclines, revealing breathtaking views across the entire red rock canyon. Walking along, you can marvel at the mammoth boulder placements, and what some believe to be circular ceremonial structures left behind by the ancient ones.
What’s remarkable about Boynton Canyon is how intensely concentrated its electromagnetic vortex energy is – spanning only several acres, yet within this small oasis, the energy field is so concentrated it palpably lifts you out of stressful and dense thoughts and releases any heavy burdens you may have been carrying. In an instant, your normal state gives way to a heightened awareness and stillness while near this Sedona vortex. Every step you take seems to leave you lighter and more buoyant!
Of all of the Sedona temples, Boynton Canyon is the sanctuary that gently holds you while the tears flow, frustration smooths over, or despair lifts away until beauty and meaning alone remain. Some of this might be because of the presence of the beautiful Kachina Woman formation.
Come allow your heavy burdens to be released at Boynton Canyon, and then loved back into wholeness like never before!
Bell Rock: Powerful Sedona Vortex for Manifestation
Shaped like a low-slung bell with twin rock pillars soaring upward, majestic Bell Rock is known for emitting some of Sedona’s most concentrated masculine energies. This powerful Sedona vortex supports visitors who are looking to realize their ambitious dreams or desires, as they focus on their intentions in the presence of this vortex.
While resting against the sturdy quartzite or gazing at the twin blades shooting skyward, it’s easy to tune inward and access any creative visions that may have been lying dormant, and feel them suddenly activating! Just beyond Oak Creek’s grassy banks, this relatively easy yet profoundly humbling hike awakens your highest manifesting capabilities, and in the presence of this powerful energy, these manifestations can come together faster than the logical mind would think possible!
Surrender to nature’s creative power that flows through this famed energy vortex site, and watch how synchronicities, manifestation and intentions materialize into reality!
Airport Mesa: Scenic Vortex Meditation Hub
Spanning the upper slope of Table Top Mountain, Airport Mesa delivers sweeping panoramas of the entire Sedona valley, making it a popular destination for sunrise and sunset! But beyond the photo-worthy vistas lies an even more captivating inner journey that is unique to this wide open Sedona vortex.
This vortex concentrates Sedona’s ley line energy to a single surface point, surrounded only by vast emptiness in all directions! The compact (yet mighty!) nature of this Sedona vortex site, surrounded by the expansive views, provides the ideal conditions for meditation, soul expansion and healing spiritually.
With its balance of feminine and masculine energy, this site promotes states of oneness, balanced alignment, and clear insights that will stay with you long after you leave this awe-inspiring location!
Many of us here in Sedona say that Airport Mesa Vortex is where you go when you want to “take off”!
The Chapel Vortex and The Chapel of the Holy Cross: Sacred Vortex with a View
Built upon the Chapel Vortex, the Chapel of the Holy Cross is carved directly into steep Sedona stone, this monumental testament honors the embodiment of the celestial here on earth. Upon tracing its towering walls and cross inset, you are easily transported beyond a mundane awareness to a state of contemplation for the bigger picture!
Since its consecration in 1956, millions of people (including artist Georgia O’Keefe!) have been moved to tears while sitting enthralled within this intimate sanctuary. Many sit and marvel at the mid-century workmanship, the stained glass and lofty chamber that resonates with chants and prayers.
You can feel the energy of this sacred Sedona vortex swirling through the chapel not only from the incredible architecture, but even more so from its precise placement. This natural amphitheater aligns directly with the intersection of electromagnetic ley lines and an underground aquifer. This fuels powerful vortex energy that visitors describe as having the ability to transmute dense emotions into feelings of exquisite lightness!
It’s no wonder that even short meditations or prayers here lead to such outsized spiritual energy healing and connections. The subtle energy currents found here are able to boost our own energy fields, allowing ego to effortlessly dissolve as feelings of universal oneness prevail!
Geology and Energy Vortexes: What Makes Sedona Unique
So why do powerful energy vortexes converge here like nowhere else? Sedona’s distinctive geology and waterways combine for the perfect union. In effect, Sedona possesses a unique combination of mineral deposits, underground aquifers, and tectonic plate friction that ultimately generates concentrated jets of highly intense electromagnetic vortex energy! This energy projects upward through the iconic rock formations to produce powerful psycho-spiritual updrafts that are not found elsewhere on the planet.
These peaks and canyons essentially act as antennae to conduct Earth’s natural subtle energy fields, which quantum physics would suggest can profoundly influence human consciousness and health! The amplification effect here explains why native peoples considered these sites portals of transformational power.
And those who are open to being attuned to these Sedona vortexes can feel a tangible shift in mood when they spend any time at all with them – if they’re feeling stressed, they may suddenly relax into ‘rest-and-digest’ mode, which is ideal for spiritual healing work. Some also report experiencing enhanced intuition, empathic downloads, creative bursts and mystical visions that have been fueled by tapping into this energy!

Healing Spiritually on a Sedona Retreat
While solo journeys to known Sedona vortex sites are undeniably powerful spiritual experiences, nothing can compare to embarking on a deeply personal, spiritual healing retreat while surrounded by Sedona’s transformational vortex energy!

At Sedona Soul Adventures, we tailor personal Sedona retreats to our clients’ specific needs and intentions for healing spiritually. Our clients work privately with Sedona’s premier transformational coaches and Master Practitioners (we have over 60!).
Working in private with our hand-selected Practitioners and spiritual healers, your core wounds, traumas, fears, blocks and limiting beliefs are able to reveal themselves for conscious resolution. Our Practitioners’ proven methodologies (ranging from energy healings to Transformational Soul Coaching) can awaken profound insights, unlock your purpose and realign relationships through evidence-based techniques customized across your 3-5 day intensive Sedona retreat.
There is no better transformative experience to shift your frequency than to go on a private Sedona retreat, specifically designed around exactly what YOU need most right now!
Why Does the Custom Design of our Retreat Intensives Make Such A Difference?
Because no two people are alike. What brought you to where you are today – your joys, your sorrows, your issues, your problems – is completely different than what brought someone else. The underlying causes of those issues – the Core Wounds, the limiting beliefs, the fears, the traumas, the blocks, the patterns (what we affectionately call the “gunk”) – that are holding you back or causing all the trouble, are completely different for each person. Each of our personal retreats and couples retreats are completely custom designed for each individual or couple.
Using our Sedona Proven Process, we first find, release and heal the “gunk”; then we use processes to bring you into connection on all the levels – physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. When you’re operating in connection, every part of your life operates in a new and wonderful way. You always know your purpose and you always know what to do. Life’s problems and frustrations don’t affect you in overwhelming ways.
Why Does It Make Such A Difference that our Retreat Intensives are Private?
Again, because everyone is different and their issues are different. If you’re in a group, the facilitators might address some of your issues, but they certainly can’t focus only on your issues. And if you’re on a personal spiritual retreat don’t you want that kind of personal attention?
Also, how likely are you to totally open up about absolutely everything about yourself in front of a group of strangers? Are you going to admit that your children sometimes drive you so crazy that you have wild, terrible thoughts?
If you’re part of a couple, do you want to discuss in front of other people that you’ve been having an affair?
Years ago, I used to go on a lot of women’s healing retreats and it was so sad to me how often it devolved into a pecking order of the best looking, thinnest, the one who had the best job or was married to the richest guy. It just seemed to add to the same insecurities which brought most of the women there in the first place. Feeling more insecure during a personal spiritual retreat does not help the healing!
Finding, releasing and healing the “gunk” that’s holding you back, plus bringing yourself into connection on all the levels, will transform you into a new person – giving you the peace, confidence, ease and grace to return to your life with a new passion, knowing that whatever life throws at you, you can handle it with grace and ease. In addition, we provide you with ongoing self-care after you return home from your personal spiritual retreat, to make sure your transformations last a lifetime.
