The closing ceremony “Swaddling”

The Closing Ceremony is a complex recovery treatment, which includes a lot of body care, and psychological and plant (herbs&cacao) treatments.

This ritual can be done for ANYONE who is going through an important transition in life, regardless of gender, age and religion. It helps to close one life cycle and enter another: giving birth, changing life values, moving to a different country, loss of someone, menopause, etc.

About

In many traditions, it has been held for a woman after giving birth to honour a new period of life, bring back heat to the body and celebrate the Mother.

These ceremonies last 5-7 hours and usually take place at your home. It includes:

  • a warming drink made from water, cocoa and spices
  • time to process your story
  • making mandala from herbs
  • rebozo massage
  • cleansing ritual in bath with herbs
  • body oiling
  • pravki (an old slavik technique of abdominal massage)
  • swaddling, cocoon wrapping and putting 7 locks down and then up on the body with the help of garment.

During this ritual, a person receives a lot of care, love, and warmth — and vitality is returning back. The ceremony often gives the feeling of being reborn.

We make cacao with spices to warm our bodies and soul
You take a purifying bath
At the end, we put seven locks on seven energy points of the body
