Learn more about our mission, values, and the people who make Sedona Mago a true sanctuary.

Sacred Land

Cherished as a sacred site in the native American lineage, the premises of Sedona Mago were lovingly developed to hold space for your healing, spiritual elevation, and physical restoration. We strongly believe in the intrinsic value of connecting to nature as a way to recharge.

We invite you to take a hike along our beautiful pathways lined with sage and sparkling crystal powders from the surrounding ancient healing red rocks. Go for a stroll along one of our three labyrinths, stop by one of our many sacred energy vortexes, or visit our 120 Steps for a moment of reflection and connection.

Sit and meditate on the banks of our soothing lake surrounded by a healing garden. Whether alone or in a group, you’ll find opportunities to breathe, heal and simply be at Mago.

Visiting Mago

At Sedona Mago, every guest comes with a meaningful purpose, and we strive to maintain a peaceful and supportive environment for all. To ensure this, we kindly ask that visits be scheduled in advance rather than on a drop-in basis. If you’d like to explore and experience the sacred land of Sedona Mago, please contact our Welcome Center to arrange your visit. A $25 admission fee applies. We look forward to welcoming you!

Our Mission

Sedona Mago Center for Well-being and Retreat is dedicated to inspiring healing, transformation, and spiritual growth. Rooted in Taoist principles, we foster harmony between mind, body, and spirit while deepening connections with nature. Preserving our 173-acre sanctuary provides a tranquil space for renewal, empowering individuals to achieve balance and contribute to collective harmony on Earth.

Our History

Sedona Mago Center for Well-being and Retreat was established in 1997 by Ilchi Lee, a renowned meditation expert and founder of Brain Education. After teaching mind mastery for 15 years in South Korea, Lee discovered a dilapidated 173-acre property in Sedona, Arizona, previously owned by Lester Levenson, founder of the Sedona Method of meditation. With a vision to create a destination for spiritual evolution and personal development, Lee convinced his non-profit organization, Tao Fellowship, to purchase and restore the land.

The name “Mago” is derived from a Korean term meaning the unconditional love and spirit of Mother Earth, reflecting the center’s mission to promote love for humanity and the planet. Over the years, Sedona Mago has transformed into a sanctuary offering various programs focused on healing, meditation, and self-discovery, all set amidst Sedona’s renowned vortexes and healing red rocks.

Through his teachings and the programs at Sedona Mago, his vision of personal and global transformation continues to inspire countless lives.
