Please join us for a sweat lodge ceremony in what has become a Beltania tradition. Whether you have done a sweat lodge ceremony before or if this is your first time, you will not want to miss this opportunity for a great spiritual experience.

Most of the sweat lodges ceremonies will be lead by Jordan Beard. He is not Native American and while he follows a Native American spiritual path he is a polytheist that converges many faiths together. If you are looking for an authentic Native American sweat lodge, this is not it. Our lodge is eclectic like the people that come together to build our community. It will reflect that variety of traditions and views.

Unless stated otherwise all sweat lodges will follow the rules below:

Due to safety concerns we cannot at this time accept minors in lodge. Most lodges are co-ed. Please bring plenty of drinking water and a towel. You may bring a drum or rattle if you wish but you do not have to. Necklaces and bracelets made of metal are discouraged due to the high heat and possibility of injury. Clothing inside the lodge is optional, however everyone must enter and exit the lodge with some form of covering (ie. towel, sarong, shorts, tank top, underwear).

The sweat lodge is a community ritual, because our community is so diverse and open we must accept those of viewpoints different from our own. All viewpoints, faiths and beliefs will be respected within the lodge at all times. Alcohol and drug use of any kind will not be tolerated in the lodge, just prior or after the lodge.

The sweat lodge schedule is available on the Beltania website as well as in the info guide. We are also looking for individuals that are interested in helping build the lodge itself on Thursday morning at 10 am. Early admission will be available for these folks. Please contact sweatlodge@beltania.org if you are interested or if you have any questions.
