“Adhyatma” meaning divine in Sanskrit, is a spiritual spa nestled in the seven sacred pools area of Sedona. Also known as spiritual mecca, Sedona draws a lot of people to its vortex sites. Vortex sites are enhanced energy locations that facilitate spiritual healing by exploring your relationship with your soul and the divine.
Adhyatma offers a spiritual healing session using techniques like visualization, yoga, meditation, reiki, and physical touch, which are used to release negativity from the body. The space includes a reception and visitors center, yoga studios, reiki and massage rooms, cuddle rooms, thermal baths and an interconnected sensory garden.
Integrated with nature, this holistic design focuses on spiritual wellness which can be defined as the state of harmony, in which all your inner energies are perfectly balanced. Spread over an acre of land, Adhyatma is seeking a balance between architecture and the surrounding environment by embracing the terrain and seamlessly fitting in. The beauty of the land and the surroundings have inspired the design and its color scheme. The visitors center serves as a check-in area for the guests while providing them in-depth knowledge about Sedona.
The Large yoga and meditation studios provide a panoramic view of the surrounding. The red-orange color of the rock is one of the most sensory stimulating of colors. It enhances creative thinking and problem solving. While the reiki rooms and the cuddle rooms provide privacy along with a clear view of the landscape and surroundings. The sensory garden not only helps in releasing negative emotions and thoughts by simulating the user’s senses, but it also acts as a connecting corridor for all the different spaces. Locally sourced environmentally friendly materials like wood and glass are used. The magnificent trails and overlooks around the site provide the guests with numerous open spaces for meditation and contemplation. The aim of this spiritual spa is to provide people with an escape from their hectic lives to find inner peace and healing while giving them perceptions for how to maintain an inner spiritual harmony once at home.
