Forget Paris &mdash; use your next summer vacation as a time for spiritual realignment.

No matter where you book your travels, every summer vacation is meant for a period of relaxation. Most commonly, that takes shape in a trip to Europe or even a lively cruise to the Bahamas. But this summer season, there's a new destination to consider &mdash; one equally if not more relaxing than any sightseeing in Paris or London.&nbsp;
We're talking about energy vortexes. An energy vortex is a location on Earth that serves as an energy hub, holding more energy than usual. While these phenomena continue to be one of science's biggest discoveries, their attraction goes beyond their scientific intricacy.
Energy vortexes garner great allure for their sweep of calmness, a fitting destination for self-reflection and even getting in touch with your spirituality.
Hot baths may be rejuvenating, but energy vortexes bring the ultimate serene experience. Below, L'OFFICIEL compiled 7 must-visit energy vortexes across the world.

Machu Picchu, Peru

Once home to the Incas, Machu Picchu is one of the most serene places in the world. Although the altitude change and massive hike make it a bit difficult to get to, the journey is worth it once you arrive. Located in Peru, Machu Picchu is thought to hold spiritual energy underground. This trapped energy radiates throughout the site and is said to promote physical healing and spiritual awakening.&nbsp;

Not far from the Ibiza Coast emerges a massive limestone rock that's a true sight to behold. Some believe it stands where the lost city of Atlantis once was &mdash; even more reason to visit. While no one is allowed to physically walk on the rock, you can certainly enjoy the views with a relaxing boat ride.

Uluru, Australia

Formerly known as Ayers Rock, Uluru is located in Australia's northern territory. The large red monolith of rock is one of the country's most famous attractions. The Aboriginal people of Australia have a legend surrounding Uluru called "Dreamtime," a ritual that has yet to be completed at the rock formation. It's said that once this ritual is complete perfection will spread throughout the world, and death will disappear.&nbsp;

As one of the most well-known ancient historical sites &mdash; and one of Earth's biggest mysteries &mdash; it should come as no surprise that Stonehenge is an energy vortex. Experts speculate Stonehenge acted as some type of ceremonial site, which if so, explains why it's such a great place for a spiritual experience. Only two and a half hours away from London, you can knock out two birds with one stone by visiting an energy vortex while also getting the traditional European vacation.&nbsp;

Any energy vortex is worth a visit, but the Haleakalā Volcano brings quite a unique distinction. Identified as the heart chakra &mdash; one of the seven major Earth chakras &mdash; the radiated frequency atop the Haleakalā Volcano is equal to the pulse of a human heart. There's no better natural wonder you will come across to get in touch with Mother Earth.

This snow-capped wonder is one of the largest, active volcanoes in California. But don't let its bubbling lava scare you, it's a mountain well worth the trip. A site that is heavily tied to Native American legends, it's believed to have transversed the physical and spiritual worlds. Believe the lore or not, no one can deny it stimulates a sense of inner healing.&nbsp;

One of South Africa's larger tourist towns, Table Mountain is the embodiment of picturesque. With endless hiking trails, cliff-baring mountains, and its signature cascading fog reminiscent of tablecloth covering the landscape, it's no wonder why so many people take a trip to the destination. While there, you may also undergo an enhanced tranquilizing experience, as Table Mountain is not only claimed to be an energy vortex, but oversees all four earth elements &mdash; earth, water, fire, and air.&nbsp;

Boynton Canyon

The Boynton Canyon is home to a powerful powerful healing energy vortex and is located about 8 miles west of the Sedona. This energy hotspot pruports to strengthen spiritual clarity and balance and is visited by hundreds of tourists every year for this reason. The trail to get there also hosts some of the most beutifal views in all of Arizona. This vortex also allegedly helps to balance the&nbsp; masculine and feminine energies or yin+yang balance within it's visitors.

Constructed on the Yucatan Peninsula nearly eight centruies ago, Tulum was the most prominent port used by the Mayans. A cultural hub and place of trade for turquoise and jade, this city was full of life and energy. Recent science has also discovered that astroid which wiped out the dinosaurs seventy million years ago landed in Tulum. This event is the reason many feel the area has a special energy, one of healing and spirituality. In fact the resorts in the surrounding area will often offer emotionally healing energy treatments that draw on the unique energy signature of Tulum.&nbsp;
