HOW THIS WORKSHOP CAME ABOUT

6 years after promoting this ancient practice of self-care and launching our packs of yoni herbs in Mexico, Colombia, Spain, the UK and Ireland,

we have established ourselves as pioneers in this wisdom within the Spanish speaking world

This workshop has benefitted greatly from the input of a number of traditional Mexican midwives notably Angelina Martínez Miranda, one of our collaborators.

The content has been guided by the hundreds of testimonials from our clients and the over 2 THOUSAND replies to our Questionnaire by women requesting guidance and assistance with specific symptoms.

We have reached far and wide with this Medicine, but realise we can reach even further by training people to share these techniques in a safe, substantiated and organised manner

LINEAGE

Why Atl-tlachinolli?

Atl-tlachinolli translated as “burnt/burning water” is as old as the Early Classic Aztec concept symbolising the sacred opposition between two naturally distinct forces,

in particular the water and fire found within each one of us reminiscent of the Taoist principle of Yin and Yang with the union of the polarities evoking the balance of our tonal and nahual, i.e. the conscious raising of human consciousness.

The Atl-tlaachinolli symbol appears in all transcendental  moments in the history of ancient Mexico, for instance. as the symbols of the omen which resulted in the founding of the Great Tenochtitlan.

This duality present in the prehispanic Cosmovision expresses the idea that there is no good or bad, black or white but rather that everything is a fusion where opposing forces combine to create balance and harmony.

We invoke the concept of Atl-tlachinolli in this workshop to honour the ancestral origins of the techniques involved, but also to describe the alchemic process that takes place when we combine seemingly rival or opposing elements, such as water, fire and the life force and synergy of the therapeutic herbs and flowers of each blend.  As the water boils in this sacred ritual, it evaporates into a lighter substance that rises into steam containing a higher vibratory frequency.

Atl-tlachinolli takes place throughout the creative/blending/preparation/steaming processes where each element is a source of energy and life-force (including the destructive forces of transformation)

Atl-tlachinolli also guides our labour and inspiration as we aim to benefit our receivers with formulas which are balanced and holistic, by taking into account not only their physical symptoms, but also aspects which are often seen as separate from the physical body, such as the emotions and the mind-body.

SUSTAINTABILITY

Atl-tlachinolli invites the fusion and convergence of all the Elements and Directions to create Unity and Wholeness where EVERY element is deemed as sacred

due to its connection with the primodial wisdom and tradition of all humanity as ONE.

As such,  Atl-tlachinolli is at the core of our guiding principles of sustainability not only in the botanical realm,

but also when it comes to the supportive AND respectful application of ancestral indigenous therapeutic practices
