This ancient healing ceremony consists in a bath with Q’ayis, a selection of herbs prepared carefully by Nana Izabel that performs the ceremony. It takes place in a Mayan Tuj (Temazcal), also called a, a traditional Mayan sweat lodge. It was the way in which women received their first baths with their newborn babies in ancient Mayan communities.
The Temazcal is a dark place, the only light comes from the embers. Inside there are sacred stones that represent our grandmothers. This space recreated the womb of our mothers, where our gestation process took place. During this ceremony we intend to connect through the umbilical cord with our mother, with the divine feminine, heal and connect with the femininity, this ritual invites us to reconnect with our femininity.
The symbolism of receiving a Temazcal bath is that of a rebirth. In this sacred space we send a message to the grandmothers and stellar grandparent: there is a newborn. We ask the elements to support us and guide our steps, to heal the physical body and gain the strength when is needed, to bless our feet on our paths. We rest and soak with herbs during this process.
This ceremony is a good opportunity to release the murky waters of our body specially the feminine parts and the toxins in our bodies. It is a ceremony to release the old waters of our bodies, cleansing in this way our energy, our mind and our physical bodies. We absorb the healing properties and wisdom from our Mother Nature thanks to the herbs in the water. You can expect to come out feeling rested, cared for, grounded and clear minded.
Nana Izabel invites you to bring your own song or poem, your own prayers to your mother and grandmothers. Bringing these gifts to a sacred place like a Temazcal, demonstrate your intention of gratitude openness to be cleansed profoundly from any parental suffering that you might be holding.
A Temazcal bath ceremony is an opportunity to remember that you carry the purity of a baby but also that your parents were pure and innocent just like you and deserve to be loved and forgiven as we all come from the same place of origin, our mother’s womb.
