Hummingbird House in Cornville

THE HUMMINGBIRD HOUSE

MEDICINE WHEEL, MEDITATION, PURIFICATION SWEAT, AND COLD PLUNGE

For groups up to 14 (4 minimum) 4.5 Hours

Are you looking for something unique and completely different? Amazingly, Cornville also sits within the vortex energy or “electro-magnetic anomalies” measured by the U.S. Geological Society (USGS), which Sedona is famous for. The Hummingbird House is where Daniel and his wife, Valerie, live. It’s a short, 25-minute drive from Sedona, is set 75 feet above Oak Creek and in the beautiful, serene countryside of Cornville. Valerie, Daniel, and Sita (dog), and Moonie (cat), moved there in October 2022.

On this magical, 2-acre property is built a Native American-style medicine wheel and Purification (sweat) Lodge. The feeling here is much more expansive, peaceful, and good for the heart and soul. Animals such as deer, bobcat, rabbit, squirrels, chipmunk, mice, hawk, eagle, heron, lizard, and roadrunner all love being on the property.

MEDICINE WHEEL

This “medicine wheel” was originally conceived by Dana Ross, who created it with his own unique style. When Daniel and Valerie obtained it from Dana, Daniel and Dana loaded it, stone by stone and buckets of gravel, into his truck. Then, it was all unloaded, at their previous home in Uptown Sedona, stone by stone and…well, you get it. It was all reassembled and blessed by local shaman and medicine men/women. After an unexpected manifestation, Valerie and Daniel found themselves as the new caretakers of a dream property for them. When they moved to Cornville, that process was done all over again! It was definitely a journey not only moving all of their possessions, but also the Grandfathers and Grandmothers (stones). In the morning, participants will start by “walking” the Medicine Wheel, at the front of the Hummingbird House, and use it as a way to connect and meditate on the different aspects of their life (30 min). Each direction (South, West, North, East) relates to a different season or aspect of our life.

108 STEPS MEDITATION

You’ll gather together, get grounded again and there you’ll be invited to share what came up during the meditations (Medicine Wheel and 108 Steps). This is a unique and fantastic opportunity to dive deeper within yourself to get more clarity on questions you may have been asking (“What is my purpose?”, “Why am I here?”, or “Why do I feel ___________?”).

Combined with information you share about what has been going on in your life (emotional, relationship, physical-chronic), Daniel will offer his wisdom, knowledge, spiritual insights and intuition for each participant.

Whether you are on the path of recovery, healing, or spiritual ascension, you’ll find more profound clarity and a shift in perspective that gives you an opportunity for expansion in consciousness (1hr).

PURIFICATION LODGE

Afterwards, if you haven’t already, you will change into clothes more appropriate for ceremonial sweat and purification (normally, shorts for men, conservative skirt or dress for women). The stones (Grandfathers and Grandmothers) have been purifying themselves in the sacred fire for hours. One by one, each will be invited into the ceremony and be blessed with sage, chapparal, and rosemary. Water will be poured to release energy (steam) and bless all participants and their prayers. experience a light, ceremonial, purification/sweat.

Make your way down about 20 feet to a refreshing, cold plunge into Oak Creek. Approximate time: 1.5 hours.

Start your slow, 108-step ascent and enjoy a delicious lunch at one of the four patios (North, South, East, West), enjoying four separate, amazing views. (1hr).
