Yesterday I attended my first ever sweatlodge, I found Sacred Groves on google and noticed that was the first event coming up on their website so I joined! Iv been working on some personal healing being a mom and battling some heavy postpartum depression and anxiety. Iv been searching for a retreat to get away too, but most of them are out of State, too expensive or they just plain don't speak to me. When I found Sacred Groves on google I just KNEW this was the place and I couldn't wait to get there. I had never been to a sweatlodge before and didn't know much about it so before I signed up I did my own research on it and thought, ok, I could do this, I'm open to almost anything. Five days later I found myself stacking rocks in the fire pit that would be heated and then brought into the lodge. I came humbly, nervously, excited, broken, hungry to learn and respectfully.
What I left with was a feeling of love, gratitude, kinship, family, health, renewal, insight and most of all a yearning for more. I seriously cannot WAIT to go back and visit the girls, kiss the earth, pee in the trees and just simply receive two of the best hugs!
This my friends is the PERECT place to partake in your first sweatlodge in my opinion. They were gentle, full of knowledge, Sacred, and so so much more. Thank you Tere and Therese read more
