WHAT’S A TEMAZCAL?
A temazcal is a traditional Mesoamerican steam bath ceremony used for healing, purification, and spiritual growth.
Held in a dome-shaped structure that represents Mother Earth’s womb, participants sit around heated volcanic stones
doused with herb-infused water, creating steam. Guided by a shaman, the ritual includes meditation and chanting
to encourage physical relaxation, mental clarity, and a deeper connection to nature and ancient traditions.
WHAT’S A CEREMONY LIKE?
Inside this small, sacred space, a mayan shaman guides you through chants, prayers, and rituals. As the heat and steam
envelop you, your body detoxifies, your soul purifies, and balance is restored. This powerful journey renews your spirit and
reconnects you with the wisdom of ancient traditions.
WHY IS IT CALLED TEMAZCAL ÚTERO?
Our temazcal at Mizata is named Útero to symbolize rebirth and renewal. “Útero,” meaning “womb” in Spanish, reflects the nurturing nature of the temazcal experience. Participants cleanse, heal, and emerge renewed, much like a rebirth. After the purifying heat, they exit through a water canal, symbolizing the transition from the warmth of the womb to the refreshing embrace of new life.
