“Ahhhh the Sedona Afterglow. Coming to Sedona last week was a life changing experience for me. I have a smile from ear to ear + I am "Just Happy"... It's such an amazing relaxing feeling + I can honestly say that "I get it". You are such a kind, caring, loving, non judgmental person who made me feel so safe + comfortable. You are so easy to talk to and I'd love nothing more than to keep in touch with you from time to time. See you next year!!!”

“Dennis, in your Vedic Astrology session you strongly encouraged my daughter to follow her passion of photography and get the business of selling her work going. Laura, you encouraged me to step out and begin my work that I was sent here to do. You helped me clear out a lot of things I needed to heal in order to proceed further. Well, we took your advice to heart and are happy to report we have a website up and running! We thought you would be interested in knowing how much you have influenced our lives. We really appreciate both of you and thank-you for taking the time to help us move on with our lives.”

“Having a personal spiritual retreat tailored to specific issues was amazing. Every experience was meaningful because each day fit together with the next. I feel very appreciative of experiencing the sunset songs, and drumming to the four corners. The releasing of obstacles into the flowing water on the first day established a grounding into the “place” that is Sedona. Being at the peace park with the stupa and the White Tara, walking the medicine wheel, connecting with all the prayers and heartfelt intentions was deeply moving. The intellectual “male energy” of Dennis’ reading and tarot update has allowed me to better understand the archetypes of my life’s journey. Laura’s alchemical dream analysis and healing with sound are truly unique and indescribable experiences. Going upcountry to the birthing cave location, experiencing that ritual with all the magical connections from the sand tray and the visualization, and then seeing the sacred Kachina woman formation was very special. A personal spiritual retreat with Dennis and Laura Harness will allow you to safely journey in the magic that is Sedona, discover new meaning and purpose, and arrive home refreshed and inspired!”
