What is Temazcal?
A temazcal is a type of sweat lodge which originated with pre-Hispanic Indigenous peoples in Mesoamerica, made from hot stones, incenses medicinal plants, and medicine music. In ancient Mesoamerica it was used as part of a curative ceremony thought to purify the body. It was also used for healing the sick, improving health, and for women to give birth. It continues to be used today in Indigenous cultures of Mexico and Central America that were part of the ancient Mesoamerican region for spiritual and health reasons. It is currently being recovered and is used as a cleansing of mind, body and spirit. The ceremony lasts for 2 to 3 hours. It is conducted by a Spiritual Guide or Shaman.
