Temazcal Temptation
An ancient ceremony reborn
Translated as house of heat, the Temazcal “sweat lodges” have been used since ancient times to perform purification ceremonies to cleanse the mind, body and spirit. At Chablé, a hilltop hacienda renowned for its wellness therapies on the Yucatán Peninsula, a shaman leads the ritual in which heat is generated by volcanic stones dipped in medicinal tea.
With darkness freeing the senses from distraction and a group energy channeling positive vibes, the ceremony is an uplifting event for all the participants. A more intimate couple’s version is also available, enhancing an experience at one of the country’s most authentic retreats.
