TEMAZCAL CEREMONY
Healing through Purification
The Temazcal Ceremony is one of the most ancient and sacred healing rituals of the Indigenous Nations of Mexico. We know that our ancestors in Mexico have practiced it for thousands of years. It is a ceremonial and therapeutic steam bath where we enter a dome-like structure based on sacred geometry that represents the womb and are "reborn" upon exiting. Outside the structure we heat volcanic stones in the ceremonial fire, then introduce them slowly into the Temazcal. We use different medicinal herbs such as copal, sage, cedar, rosemary, lavender, and chamomile to cleanse and purify the body and the mind. More than just a steam bath, this is a ceremony of purification, rebirth, and spiritual reconnection.
These ancestral ceremonies have been guarded and protected for centuries by the keepers of tradition — those who have carried the flame of this sacred knowledge across generations.
It is our great joy and honor to share this ancient wisdom and living spirituality with you in these times of awakening — when humanity is remembering its roots and returning to the heart.
Health benefits of the Temazcal
The health benefits of the Temazcal are many: The body receives the same benefits as when we do cardio excercises, toxins are eliminated from the body, organs are stimulated and oxygenated, the brain produces oxytocin, dopomine, endorphins, circulation and sleep are improved, and the immune system is strengthened.
What you will experience
- Deep detoxification and physical renewal
- Emotional release and spiritual clarity
- Connection with ancestral memory and guidance
- A sense of grounding, peace, and inner light
However, the Temazcal ceremony goes far beyond just physical benefits. It is a spiritual experience that helps us balance mind, body, spirit and emotions. In the Temazcal, we chant, sing, and invoke spiritual guidance. We take inventory of our lives and express gratitude. We dedicate the ceremony to our ancestors and descendants, but also to ourselves and all other living beings. It is a truly beautiful experience that is not to be missed while in Mexico.
You may join to a community temazcal on scheduled dates, or request a private, personalized ceremony aligned with your own intentions and needs.

CEREMONIES THAT CHANGE YOUR LIFE My first medicine and temazcal ceremony were with Pepe. He is an upright spiritual guide with the firm intention of serving the people who come to him. I am grateful to have had these experiences because I met him and they have changed my life since then.
