π What is a Temazcal ceremony?
+
A Temazcal is an ancient Mayan sweat lodge ceremony used for physical, mental, and spiritual purification. It involves sitting in a small dome-shaped structure while heated volcanic rocks create intense steam. A guide leads prayers and intentions throughout the ceremony, connecting participants to ancient Mayan traditions of healing and renewal.
It is a profound and powerful experience. Participation is completely optional if you prefer not to take part.

π What are cenotes?
+
Cenotes are natural sinkholes or cave pools formed by the collapse of limestone bedrock, revealing an underground freshwater river system beneath the YucatΓ‘n Peninsula. The Maya considered them sacred gateways to the underworld and used them for rituals and as primary water sources.
A cenote adventure is available as an optional add-on for this retreat β individually or for the full group. Reach out for pricing and details. The water is crystal clear, refreshing, and unlike anything you’ve likely swum in before.

Every single experience is optional. AdZENtures chose each experience on this retreat based on firsthand knowledge and the unique value it holds for our guests. You are always welcome to choose your own AdZENture by sitting something out. No pressure, ever.
