ABOUT
 
Retreat Sedona has a core team of individuals who direct the day-to-day focus of the company and are on hand at each retreat (depending upon theme and location). Collectively, the wide variety of experience amongst the team members ensures your retreat, whether individual or corporate, exceeds your expectations.
 

Retreat Sedona is owned and operated by Lori Tierney, who has spent over twenty years in and around the Sedona area studying Native American spiritual practices, local geomancy and sacred sites.

Lori is an artist, writer, Feng Shui practitioner, spiritual counselor, and Reiki master healer.

Lori studied Feng Shui at the International Feng Shui Research Center, in Boulder, Colorado under Feng Shui Master, Roger Green, of Australia. Her knowledge combines such disciplines as Form and Compass Schools, Chinese Astrology/Four Pillars and Black Hat Sect Feng Shui to ensure her clients receive a tailored, all encompassing solution to their individual goals.

As a Reiki Master, Intuitive and Energy worker, Lori's metaphysical experience affords her clients tools and guidance for attaining personal growth and balance. Lori's clients include individuals and corporations in the fields of government, entertainment, high technology and business.
