🌸 Welcome
You are invited into a soft beginning.
A quiet welcome. A breath of ease.
This is your moment to arrive—not just at the Arizona Inn,
but in your body, your breath, and the stillness of now.
The Sonoran Desert surrounds you.
Time slows. The air hushes. You return.
Petrified Wood holds the wisdom of grounding.
It reminds you: there is nothing to become—only presence to return to.
With each breath, you soften.
With each breath, you arrive.
Let this be your beginning.
🌿 Prepare Your Space
Find a peaceful place—a window nook, a shaded garden, a quiet bed.
Let this be a moment just for you.
Hold your Petrified Wood at your heart, in your hands, or nearby.
Let the space feel still and soft.

💬 Anchor in Intention
Before you begin, repeat softly (or in your mind):
“I arrive gently. I soften into stillness. I am here, fully.”
Take three slow, releasing breaths:
Inhale…
Exhale…
Let your body begin to settle.
Press play on your Arrival Meditation.
Let the voice and breath guide you gently inward.
There’s nothing to do. Nowhere to go.
Just presence.
Petrified Wood supports your grounding—
its stillness echoes through your breath and bones.
🌟 Closing Reflection
As the meditation ends, stay for a few more moments.
Breathe gently.
Hold your Petrified Wood again.
Repeat your affirmation:
“I arrive gently. I soften into stillness. I am here, fully.”
Let this calm carry you through the courtyards, the gardens,
and the quiet moments of your stay.
You have arrived.
You are home.
You are here.
