About the Event
At CIP we draw inspiration from our native Celtic traditions but have our roots in the Lakota tradition of sweat lodges. Our founder is an initiated Lakota Sundancer. We use knowledge from many sources, but the main source is the inner primordial knowledge and wisdom which exists within us all. The Sweat Lodge is very much a spontaneous event, but generally involves storytelling, visualisation, meditation, singing and chanting. The duration of the lodge does vary, but it usually lasts between 3 and 4 hours which is broken up into ‘rounds’ of approximately 20 – 30 minutes. After the sweat lodge, everyone shares food around the fire (baked potatoes, Veg Curry or similar and hot drinks are included). It is important to have this period of relaxation after the lodge.
What you need to bring:
2 towels (one for sitting on in the lodge and one to dry yourself with afterwards)
