A wonderful website was recently opened by some of Ilchi Lee’s students: www.sedonastory.com. There’s a store in Uptown Sedona by the same name, where anyone can learn about LifeParticles and MindScreen Meditation. There’s a part of the website for the store, but actually, the website is for more than just the store alone.
The main purpose of the site, like the store, is to share the Sedona spirit that Ilchi Lee could sense drew him and others to this remarkable place. The daily blog posts that can be seen on the main page give visitors the flavor of that spirit through words, pictures, audio, and video. Interviews with residents and tourists capture that ineffable something that makes Sedona special. Though it began modestly, SedonaStory.com has evolved into an online community of expression defined by a love of Sedona.
Anyone who has ever been to Sedona is welcome to submit their stories, pictures, videos, and/or artwork to the site. What thoughts, feelings, and experiences have you had about Sedona? In fact, if you submit something by July 23, 2011, your submission will be entered into a contest whose participants are eligible to win a grand prize of $500, among a veritable plethora of prizes.
The culmination of this contest will be a live storytelling event on July 30th, 2011, between 5 pm and 7 pm, in the Cheers parking lot in Uptown Sedona. An open mic will be available at this event for anyone who wants to tell their story in person. The winners of the contest will be announced at that time and their entries posted on SedonaStory.com.
