Sedona vortexes are thought to be swirling centers of energy that are conducive to healing, meditation and self-exploration. Generally agreed is where the magnetic energy of the earth is closer to the surface. It can be seen in the twisted juniper trees growing above them and sometimes the energy you feel. The four best known Sedona vortexes are found at Airport Mesa, Cathedral Rock, Bell Rock and Boynton Canyon—each radiating its own particular energy. Some are thought to produce energy flowing upward while at others the energy spirals downward, entering the earth.

These are places where the earth seems especially alive with energy. Many people feel inspired, recharged or uplifted after visiting a vortex. Although all of Sedona is considered to be a vortex, there are specific sites where the energy is more intense.
