~ $10-$20 Suggested Donation. No one will be turned away for lack of funds or offerings~ *It is traditional to bring an offering to the facilitators as an expression of gratitude for the healing benefits of the sweat lodge purification ceremony. It has been said that in order to fully receive that which you are coming for, it is first necessary to give something in order to create a space within yourself to receive the gift/healing you are seeking.  This offering may include sage, tobacco, sweet grass, cedar, fire wood, yarrow, mullen, osha root, sweat stones, money or anything that you feel inspired to give from your heart.  Donations will go towards covering the cost of supplies and supporting future ceremonies.
