Limpia Ceremony - Traditional Ancestral Energetic Cleansing
A traditional Limpia (energy clearing/cleansing) is a ceremony we use for clearing and cleansing our energy centers Cueycueyos (like chakras). "Limpias," are a way to clear or rebalance your sacred energies used in the practice of Curanderismo. No two Limpias are the same and each Curandera (practitioner) invokes their own essence but the intention of the limpia is always about setting an intention and to cleanse oneself of unwanted heavy energies and shifting into a more balanced vibration. It is intended to cleanse the mind, body, heart and aura. Rebalances the life force within us and rejuvinates us for a more relaxed feeling and sense of being.
All living things collect energy wether it be positive or negative energy as we walk through our day we are constantly exchaning energy with all living things around us. This offering is rooted in the ancient ways of the Mexican Traditions of the my ancestors and is still used as a traditonal wellness practice in these modern days. During the session I help guide the release of unwanted energies and then call in the universal energies of the Teyolia the energy of the heart. Where love and life reside to come a fill you up.
A limpia is helpful for those experiecing feelings of fear, anxiety, depression, anger, sadness or overwhelm. Especially in these modern times. It can also help with dream work and interpresonal challenges. Limpias are also a great way of creating a ceremony to celebrate a new chapter in your life (new job, new relationship, break-up, home, business, coming of age etc.). We work on releasing what no longer serves you or we create the ceremony as a blessing and offering to yourself. A personal rebirth.
This Limpia Ceremony is based on the current season of the East, South, West and North directions of the Mēxihcah Medicine Wheel the Rumbos. Each season provides an opportunity for lessons learned and to grow and blossom 🌹 with beauty. You will be guided and supported through the 90 minute session.
We start with opening ceremony with honoring the sacred directions and elements together, you set your intention for your ceremony and you are guided to place your Ofrenda (offering) on your personal altar. Next is the Platica the sacred heart to heart talk focused on the intention of your ceremony and the season of the medicine wheel and how that relates to our own session.
After the heart to heart with your permission to shift I guide you through a grounding meditation and then you are ready to receive your **Limpia Ceremony - spiritual aura energy clearing and cleansing. This always includes a sacred smoke smudging, element of the season clearing and a dream planting aqua florida (floral water and flower bundle) blessing to bring love, joy and beauty into your life. We close the ceremony with a cup of tea and mindful breathing offering thanks to the sacred ways and space. You will be given an herbal bundle with instructions for taking your sacred bath at home to seal and complete your ceremony.
The Limpia takes about 90 minutes. It is best that when planning your ceremony if possible leave yourself some personal time open after to process and rest. You will also recieve an email with details on how to prepare in advance for your Limpia Ceremony.

ALL Limpias Ceremonies are held in person at the healing arts studio The Therapeutic Collective in Livermore, CA. I do not currently offer virtual limpias. I do however hold 1:1 Xochitl Blossoming Sessions for guidance, healing and mentorship.
There are no scheduled ceremonies during the Nēmontēmi from March 6th - March 11th. This is a time before the SHIFT in the sacred calendar what some call the Mēxihcah New Year. This is a time of rest, fasting, sitting in prayer, connecting with nature, journaling, and clearing all that we no longer want to prepare for the Shift ahead.
**For all Limpia Ceremonies the client is fully clothed. The spoken words shared in sacred platica is confidential between the client and the practitioner.
