Title: Using a Sweat Lodge for Detoxification
Post by: zeno on November 23, 2011, 11:41:03 pm

I spent some time on a bison ranch in California. While there, I constructed several sweat lodges and participated in several ceremonies.

I recently built a sweat lodge myself for the first time with a friend.

Sweat lodges are a great way for a powerful detoxification through the pores even throughout the cold winter months. Moreover, you can harvest all the materials from the natural environment (depending on your area), which is a great way to interact and become acquainted with the natural environment surrounding you. If you cannot find these materials in your area, supplies can be purchased, too.

Here are three guides to help you get started: A Sweat Lodge (http://www.welcomehome.org/rob/sweat/sweat.html), Building your Own Sweat Lodge (http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2006/7/22/225040/700), Building a Sweat Lodge (http://www.think-aboutit.com/native/building_a_sweat_lodge.htm).
