The beauty of Sedona goes far beyond what meets the eye.
This endless beauty is accompanied by a healing heart. For centuries, Sedona was revered as a place of power and sacredness. It is like a cathedral without walls. This is Stonehenge before it was built. The mysterious cosmic forces said to emanate from the red rocks attract visitors from around the world. These visitors seek out the vortexes.

But what is a vortex? There are swirling centers of energy in Sedona, called vortexes (the proper grammatical form of the word “vortex” is seldom used). These centers are thought to promote healing, meditation, and self-discovery. They are places where the earth is particularly vibrant. After visiting a vortex, many people feel inspired, energized, or uplifted.
A vortex is an energy field of concentrated energy that swirls around in a whirlpool-like motion. Throughout Sedona, there are many vortexes with different types of energy including feminine energy, masculine energy, a balance between both energies, as well as subtle or powerful energies.
In addition, these vortexes are believed to offer healing properties and are popular destinations for meditation, self-exploration, and the development of psychic abilities. In their own words, people who have experienced vortexes have described this feeling:
There are specific locations in Sedona where the energy crackles more intensely even though the entire area is considered a vortex. Airport Mesa, Cathedral Rock, Bell Rock, and Boynton Canyon are the four best-known Sedona vortexes. They each emit their own unique energy. Energy from some sources flows upward while energy from others spirals downward, entering the earth.

It is not uncommon to see people meditating, practicing yoga, or performing other rituals at vortex sites. Kindly respect these activities. Vortex tours are offered by several companies, individual guides, and healing practitioners. Anyone can also visit on their own. Maps and directions are available at the visitor center for all vortex sites. Come with an open mind and see what happens.
Life can be transformed in Sedona. There is no doubt about that. You automatically experience a renewed sense of wonder when you see the raw physical beauty of the landscape. Let yourself be amazed. Take it all in. A place that inspires, recharges, uplifts, soothes, restores, and much more. A spiritual awakening can be triggered by simply being here. A person does not leave Sedona unchanged.

Across the deserts, grasslands, and pine forests of Arizona and New Mexico, native predators once prowled: jaguars, wolves, and even grizzly bears once claimed Arizona as their home. Today, most of these species are gone, victims of hunting, habitat loss, and human expansion. But what if human intervention could remedy this? advertisement Jaguars Conservationists have long debated reintroducing jaguars into their historic range. Unlike some extinct or extirpated species, jaguars have garnered public fascination and broad support, making their comeback more politically and socially viable. Reintroducing jaguars wouldn’t just be a symbolic victory; it could help restore complex ecological interactions
Buying your first home can be exciting and a little nerve-wracking. For many buyers in Phoenix, Tucson, and the surrounding areas, one common concern is termites. If you’re house hunting, especially for older homes or condos built decades ago, termites are something you’ll likely encounter one day. advertisement Termites Are Common, Not Catastrophic In Phoenix and Tucson, termites are almost a given for older wood-constructed homes. Local homeowners joke that there are only two kinds of houses here: those that have had termites and those that will have termites. While the word “infestation” can sound alarming, a detected termite presence
The Mexican gray wolf (Canis lupus baileyi) is one of the rarest subspecies of gray wolf in North America and a symbol of both ecological resilience and conservation success. Once nearly extinct, this small gray wolf has become the focus of one of the most closely monitored wildlife recovery efforts in the United States. advertisement A Species on the Brink By the late 1970s, only seven Mexican gray wolves remained in captivity. Their disappearance from the wild was driven by habitat loss, hunting, and predator control programs. The survival of this subspecies depended entirely on careful intervention and breeding programs.
