We appreciate your presence by the fire. This retreat promises to be an intimate gathering, where both seasoned and first-time participants bring their unique prayers, intentions, and heart medicine. We kindly ask everyone to extend kindness, patience, and respect to one another. We never truly know the journey another person is walking, and our shared space is dedicated to healing, connection, and community.

Please take a few moments to read all the information provided and plan your journey in advance.

Important travel information: The retreat is held at Berkeley Farm. Please be aware that some GPS systems incorrectly direct visitors to a neighbouring property. Do not enter the neighbouring property, as the GPS is not always accurate. If you are using satellite navigation, please double-check that you are arriving at Berkeley Farm before entering the driveway.

If you are unsure of the location or have any difficulties finding us on the day, please get in touch before entering any property.

We look forward to welcoming you and sharing this special time together around the warmth of the sacred fire.

🌿 Programme

Duration: approximately 2 hours

🕯️ Arrival & Opening the Fire

12:00 – 1:00 pm

Participants arrive and are welcomed into the ceremonial space.
We begin by lighting the sacred fire and heating the volcanic stones, an essential part of the temazcal tradition. This time allows participants to settle, ground, and prepare mentally, emotionally, and physically for the ceremony.

An introduction is offered, including guidance on intention-setting, safety, and the meaning of the temazcal as a space of purification, renewal, and connection to the elements.
