Mother Earth Sweatlodge
Join us for a life-affirming ceremony around the fire and in the darkness of the sweat lodge.
Let's give thanks to life through our prayers, through our songs and words, drums and sweat in an ancient ceremony. Let's call upon the Temple of Grace to remember the beautiful way of loving interaction with the world. Let's call upon our ancestors for guidance in the womb of the sweatlodge, offering mugwort and tobacco to unite the new and old worlds in harmony.
Bring your sorrows and lay them on the altar together with your offerings - to name and to overcome your obstacles, to open up and receive what is given. Help others with your presence and be held by the group for four rounds in the dark, with hot stones and steam, songs and prayers for a new life.
We sweat
In four rounds we sweat together with our loved ones to give thanks to creation. With prayers for all that exists and with humble surrender to the greater answer, we receive what we need through the medicine of our ancestors, through the elements, through all aspects of Great Spirit and Mother Nature.
We sweat for the reconnection of our minds to the greater fabric of life, for the cleansing of our bodies, for the healing of our loved ones - to create sacred pathways of life from darkness to light.
Who can come
Feel free to arrive with your family, your children and/or your partner. We welcome all to build the altair, the lodge and the fire.
