Delve into one of the most
closely held traditions of the Mayan
civilization, Temazcal, in this cultural
celebration of ancient Mayan life. If you
like to relax, enjoy an occasional sauna, and
experience an important component of the Mayan
culture, this excursion is for you.
Derived from the ancient
Aztec Nahuatl dialect word for "house of steam",
Temazcal is a cleansing, relaxing, and
purification therapy for the nervous system and
promotes the reactivation of skin cells.
The
elimination of fat and stimulation of the blood
vessels is activated in the bath, bringing also
beneficial effects to the respiratory,
circulatory and digestive systems. This
is a holistic experience for men and women
alike.
You
will be led through the various phases of the
process, from the recognition of North, East,
South and West and their significance to the
Mayans with the smudging ceremony. Then you will
get into the Temazcal, where you will experience
the four phases of cleansing and the five points
of visualizations. After one hour in the
Temazcal you will emerge reborn and rejuvenated.
As
part of the cooling down process, you are
invited to bath in the fresh water cenote only a
few steps from the Temazcal or rinse off in a
freshwater shower. Then feel free to enjoy and
relax in a hammock while delighting in the fresh
fruits and juices which are grown and harvested
on the Xkan-Ha Reserve.As
a departing gift each guest will be given a
glyph as a necklace indicating the participant’s
birthday according to the Mayan calendar.
