Private Meditation Hike

FOR GROUPS UP TO SEVEN

2.5 Hours

Meditation offers many proven benefits for mental and physical health. General meditation and mindfulness research shows meditation can change the actual structure of the brain. People who have a practice of meditation also report lower levels of stress, anxiety, depression and chronic pain.

In this deep-dive meditation on the land, we will use the beauty and power of Sedona to help open up the habitual mind to new patterns and new energies. Hiking out to a power spot, we will go deep into meditation and allow the softness and gentleness of this powerful energy to move through your system and open your heart, bringing you into a state of peace.

Alissa Tyler

Land Guide and Yoga Instructor

Alissa believes teaching Yoga is a sacred honor. As a former automotive journalist, producer and television host of Cars From A Woman’s Perspective, Alissa found yoga after moving to Sedona in 2016. It was the day after returning from a weekend stunt driving workshop, that she made the big move from Denver to Sedona. After a few years of culture shock, Alissa learned the power in finding personal peace versus chasing every, fun, squirrel. Her classes combine her outgoing personality with an innate, quiet, inner truth. Teaching traditional yoga poses, she specializes in focusing on improving your life, by using your body to drive in manual mode, like a vehicle! She acknowledges both our material and ethereal sides for bringing balance that feels fun and legit. Expect a few automotive-related metaphors and a down-to-earth approach outside on the vortex.

Chuck Tyler

Land Guide and Yoga Instructor

As a former competitive gymnast of 10 years, and martial artist for 5 years, Chuck discovered yoga in 2003 and has had a regular practice ever since. As a certified yoga instructor, he brings his lifetime of physical training into his peaceful and thoughtful practice, focusing on presence, breath and awareness. Chuck is also a survivor of over a decade of ongoing childhood trauma, as well as a published author of “Taking It Back, Life Beyond Childhood Sexual Abuse”. As a trauma recovery coach, he thanks yoga for being a foundational part of his recovery process, and brings his lifetime of trauma recovery experience to his Trauma Release Yoga workshops, where anyone is welcome. He believes it is an honor and a privilege to both coach trauma survivors, and to teach yoga, and that a regular yoga practice helps you bring your truest, strongest self into every day. We are in our place of greatest strength when we are in our place of greatest balance.

I booked a vortex yoga with Chuck.  It was my birthday day that day.   No one else had booked a session so it worked out perfectly.  I had such a great session.  Chuck is amazing at what he does.  It truly was a treat.  He is very knowledgeable and nice.  I couldn’t have asked for a better yoga session.   If you ever book a session ask for Chucks schedule.  You won’t be disappointed.  And that view was breathtaking.  #Namaste.
