About Alyson
Greetings!
​ I’m Alyson, founder of Sarasota Vortex Tours. I’m a lifelong nature lover, tree hugger, humanitarian, former Girl Scout, and your friendly tour guide.
My journey is motivated by a simple but urgent question that followed me throughout my career in sustainability:
“How do we get people to truly care about the Earth?”
As an architect and consultant for green buildings, I saw that policies, incentives, and even penalties weren’t enough to create real change. We need a deeper shift — a new way of seeing our relationship with nature.
Before I discovered the energy vortexes of Sarasota, I became a certified Hatha yoga teacher and trained as a Shamanic Practitioner. I believe, like the Dalai Lama, that educating the heart is essential for a kinder world. I practice an Indigenous-inspired worldview of Kinship — the understanding that we are deeply connected to plants, animals, minerals, and the Earth herself.
This belief led me to a new question:
“How can I help people build a real heart connection with nature?”
​
The answer came during a Regenerative Practitioner training: tourism can be a powerful path for spiritual awakening. That realization birthed Sarasota Vortex Tours — metaphysical ecotours designed to help you experience the special energy of Sarasota’s vortexes while deepening your connection to nature.
I invite you to open your heart and mind and join me on a journey you won’t forget.
Be Well, Alyson Laura Owner, Sarasota Vortex Tours
