Yuan Temazcal

Yuan Temezcal

temescalThe Sweat Lodge, also known as ‘Innipi’ or ‘Temazcal’ is a sacred ceremony from the Native American People.

The Temazcal is made of wood and covered in blankets – it is representative of the ‘Womb’.

The rocks, known as the ‘Grandfathers and Grandmothers’ are baked in a fire and then placed inside the Temazcal. They represent the wisdom of time.

The Sweat Lodge is conducted according to the design of the Medicine Man Aurelio Tekpankalli.

There are four rounds to celebrate the four directions.

Inside the lodge we say prayers and sing songs while water and herbs are placed on the ‘Grandparents’. In this space many people may experience a powerful homecoming, spirit retrieval, inspiration, instruction, purification, visions, understanding, release and rejuvenation.

Inside the Temazcal, women need to wear a nightie or sarong and men need to wear shorts.

Location: West Stourmouth, Kent. Please contact the Yuan Clinic for the full address.

Cost: £40.00 / £30.00 concessions.

Time: You need to arrive for the sweat lodge between 7 – 7.30pm
