EARTH WOMB - SWEAT LODGE IMMERSION


A sacred journey of purification & renewal with Antara, wisdom keeper

February 9th to 13th in Goa, India
FOR WOMEN AND MEN

Daily : Sweat Lodge - Rituals - Liberation Dance - Singing Circle

A profound five-day journey into the ancient wisdom of the Sweat Lodge. Each day we honor a direction and its elemental force, weaving spirit, body, and Earth into one prayer. Guided by the majestic Antara’s wisdom.

We begin by building the Temazcal temple, shaping the clay womb that will hold our songs and prayers. From this act of creation, each day unfolds as ceremony, Sweat Lodge, Ritual, Singing Circle, and Liberation Dance, a rhythm of cleansing, remembrance, and rebirth.

Guided by the elements and the breath of nature, we return to the heart — to remember what it means to be human, to be alive, to be home.

After two beautiful editions in Portugal, Earth Womb now travels to India for its next unfolding.

WHAT IS A SWEAT LODGE ?

The lodge is a sacred space, built with deep reverence. Heated stones—Grandmothers— are placed in the central navel of Mother Earth's womb, carrying the wisdom of the earth. Water is poured over them, releasing purifying steam. Prayers and songs guide the experience, allowing the body and spirit to release, transform, and align with a greater truth.

The Sweatlodge invites deep inner work. As the heat rises, it opens the body, the mind, and the spirit, allowing you to let go of what no longer serves you. Through breath, prayer, and intention, you surrender to the process—offering yourself to purification, renewal, and connection with something greater than yourself.

This is not a practice to be consumed but a ceremony to be honored. The Sweatlodge is a place of huity, presence, and transformation. It calls for listening rather than speaking, surrender rather than control. Here, healing unfolds as you become part of something ancient and sacred.

This is not a practice to be consumed but a ceremony to be honored. The Sweatlodge is a place of humility, presence, and transformation. It calls for listening rather than speaking, surrender rather than control. Here, healing unfolds as you become part of something ancient and sacred.

The Lakota phrase "Hóka-héy" is often translated as "It is a good day to die", but its true essence is an invitation to fully embrace the present, to release fear, and to step into life with clarity and courage. As you enter the Sweatlodge, you surrender to this sacred process — letting go.

Earth Womb Story

Earth Womb was born from the sacred sisterhood between Lina and Antara.
Lina, student of Antara and Moon Dancer in Austria, has walked by her side for several years, their bond deepening into true sisterhood and friendship.

During the Moon Dance, Lina experienced the profound medicine of Antara’s Temazcal (Sweat Lodge) and felt called to receive it more often. From that calling, the vision of Earth Womb was born.

The first edition in May, in Portugal, was a deep and transformative journey for all who joined. There, Lina and Antara discovered the perfect harmony between Sweat Lodge, Singing Circle, and Liberation Dance, a powerful trinity for healing and rebirth.

After its beautiful beginning, Earth Womb continues to grow, as women around the world feel the call to bring this sacred immersion to their own lands.

Wisdom keeper : Antara

“ I'm fully committed to the path of transformation, truth, growth and self knowledge. I had been  in  many sacred places of Mother Earth, from ashrams to  indigenous ancient ceremonies, where ancient knowledge has flown through my being, opened to receive and to reconnect with my own wisdom, power and love. 

I honor all Great Masters, Sacred Traditions and  Ancestors-Wisdom Keepers of Mother Earth.
They are the ones who remind me to walk my path with love, integrity, acceptance, truth, courage, awareness and compassion.

Since 25 years Sweatlodge arrived to my life, receiving the medicine and blessings of abuelos and abuelas from the path… surrendering myself to this ancient wisdom, I found a sacred  refuge to release  and  find strength in the womb of mother earth..in my womb. 

And I'm Antara Dakini: Moon Dancer and Founder of Moon Dance Austria & Italian Circles, Founder of Liberation Dance, Yoga Teacher and Deeksha Trainer, Sweatlodge Guide and Mother. “ Antara

Program

Feb 9th : Seeding a Sweat Lodge is a ceremonial experience that goes beyond building a physical structure. We come together to honor the spirit of the land, asking permission to the heart of the Earth to create this sacred space of healing and remembrance. As a community, we offer our best intentions and prayers for all who are called to enter the mother womb.

Feb 10th: Early morning, we pray together the stone and light the sacred fire all together. While the stones are heating up we prepare the altar together and open that space for sharing and singing.
Once the stones are ready, it’s time to enter the sweat lodge, the ceremony of purification.
After the sweat lodge, we have a free time to go lunch in a restaurant by the beach, followed by some free time to rest, swim, and enjoy the ocean.
At 6pm, we come together again for the deep practice of Liberation Dance, closing the day in movement, presence, and gratitude.

Feb 11-12th :
As the day before, we will sing while the stones are heating up, sweat, go foe lunch and share the practice of Liberation Dance.

Feb 13th : For the last day of our time together, we have our regular morning and then the closing ceremony after lunch. The retreat finishes around 4pm.

TESTIMONIALS

  • Allegra

    Earth Womb 2nd Edition

    Earth Womb was an initiation and a ritual of passage.

    Antara brings together the ancient way of the Camino Roho like a perfect flecha, sharing depth without dilution — with simplicity and perfect direction — merging the fermeza of the Temazcal with the sensuality and fluidity of dance.

    The sweat, the prayers, and the songs — precisely squeezing, healing, and aligning the field of all my relationships — bringing clarity, resolution, and expansion.

    Gratitude for the ancient wisdom, and for Antara and Lina for creating a safe, profound space of remembrance, sisterhood, and liberation.

    I feel lighter in my womb, and in resonance with the heartbeat of the Mother. I’m home.

    ♥️

  • Marta

    Earth Womb 2nd Edition

    I went without knowing anyone, open-hearted, guided by my intuition.
    I found myself in a group of women, diverse and united.

    We followed Antara's simple, profound, honest, gentle, and intense invitations. And in her sweet firmness, we entered each day, hand in hand, into a beautiful sisterhood that sustains and nourishes.
    Lina conceived, and gave body and presence to this work/prayer.

    My soul and heart thank Antara and Lina for everything and so much 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 and all the beautiful souls who co-created these days of love and sisterhood 🌬️💓💓💓✨✨✨🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🥁🥁🥁

  • Lisa

    Earth Womb 1st Edition

    t’s hard to put into words what can truly unfold in these kinds of spaces. They hold something sacred, beyond explanation.

    All I can say is: if you feel the call, answer it. There is beauty, depth, and power woven into every practice.
    The medicine of the temazcal touched me deeply — it’s by far my favorite.

    To be part of its preparation, and to enter the womb of the Earth four days in a row, was an experience I will carry forever. When combined with the power of sung prayers and the liberating dance, this retreat became a true rite of passage.

    A shedding. A rebirth. A remembering.
    Antara’s presence is pure alchemy. And with Lina they held a space where I could go deep — with strength and softness.
    The kind of space where you can fall apart and rise again — held all the way through.

    Special mention for the group, the stunning setting, and the delicious food, all of which offered precious support throughout the journey.

  • Mathilde

    Earth Womb 1st Edition

    I feel deeply nourished and empowered from this profound and magnificent journey into the depths of the earth and of the womb.
    A return to the source, to the elements, to the essential, which makes me feel deeply connected and supported by all living things and so humble at the same time.

    I would like to honor the incredible and rare generosity of Antara and Lina in the transmission of ancient wisdom, bodywork practices, their qualities as teachers, artists, but above all, as human beings that’s make us the luckiest to have been able to cross their path.

    And beyond the individual processes, I will remember a true collective prayer with dear sisters.

  • Diana

    Earth Womb 1st Edition

    4 days to let us be embraced by the warmth of the unconditional love and constant and silent support of mother earth, to return into her womb, the temazcal, ancient and precise technology, to purify the body and clear the mind, to let old parts of ourselves die, choosing to come to life again, in our power, with clearer intentions on how we want to walk this path on earth.

    4 days among women, to reconnect with the sacredness of the feminine, of life itself, diving in beauty, dancing liberating dances, to remember the blood that pulses through the veins, singing sacred songs to bring back the power of the wisdom that runs deep in everyone of us.

    Thanks Lina for creating this space of prayer.

  • Mafalda

    Earth Womb 2nd Edition

    The Earth Womb was a balm to my femininity.

    For five days, in the company of a circle of women, we gathered around the fire, listening to the elements - softly inviting me to remember that within complexity lies a profound simplicity, held by an eternal love for all living things.

    We were guided by Antara, an embodied, grounded woman with a voice that carries the wisdom of the stars, and by Lina, whose joyful, sensitive, and empowered presence lit up the space.

    Each day, we sweated, sang, danced, learned new songs, and shared delicious food. I felt myself opening more and more - becoming lighter, more connected, more alive.

  • Milene

    Earth Womb 2nd Edition

    Earth Womb took me deep into the core of myself, through feminine softness and power, calling me back into wholeness. Prayers & songs deeply anchored in the fertile soil of my womb, I am left full, grounded, cleansed & clear.

    Immense gratitude Antara and Lina for this work that is so deeply needed for the Earth & for the sisterhood, remembering and practicing together ancestral ways to guide us back home.

  • Orelie

    Earth Womb 2nd Edition

    I had the joy and honor of participating in the Earth Womb retreat with Lina and Antara. I encourage all women to live this wonderful experience.

    It is a profound process of liberating the feminine within.
    Temazcal, song, and dance are powerful medicines for freeing the body and voice.

    These are sacred spaces that awaken our feminine power and reconnect us with our Essence.
    You will also have wonderful encounters with other women, in an atmosphere of sisterhood and authenticity.

    Antara and Lina are two exceptional facilitators, with great depth and presence.

    They fully embody their power and inspire great confidence.

    I felt completely safe, accompanied, and supported throughout the process.

    This retreat requires courage and love—the love to face our fears, our blockages, and our wounds. But it is the path of transformation and healing to our power and the beauty of the sacred feminine. 💖🙏

  • Silvia

    Earth Womb 2nd Edition

    These days at the Mojo were so precious and enriching for me. Feeling the connection with my sisters, going through all the shared processes, and being accepted and embraced in my uniqueness was a truly wonderful experience.

    Thank you, Lina, for holding the space and allowing it to keep growing…

    Thanks also to the entire Mojo team for taking such loving care of us.

    Thank you, Antara, for your presence, your wisdom, and the love you tirelessly share with all of us – and for your blessing. I still feel deeply touched and filled with gratitude that I had the opportunity and followed the call to take part in this retreat.

    The time we shared brought so much lightness and joy into my heart. I am still deeply moved by the warmth and confidence that surround my heart.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you.
    The Temazcal is a very powerful and transformative medicine.Sometimes we forget how much strength lies within ourselves. Our true power flows from within – quiet but unstoppable. It is always there, even when we don’t feel it. We just need the courage to listen to our inner voice – the one that whispers:

    You can always rise again. You can choose which thought you give your power to.
    I was reminded of this while singing, sweating, praying, and dancing together with such wonderful women.

    The Earth Womb Retreat with Antara and Lina was such a powerful and heart-opening journey.
    They created a beautiful and safe space where I could truly surrender, feel held, and reconnect with my inner strength and softness.

    I’m deeply grateful to learn from them. Thank you Antara, for your clarity, love, and wisdom, and thank you, Lina, for your gentle and joyful energy.
    It was a deeply healing journey of sisterhood, trust, and joy that I’ll carry in my heart for a long time. ❤️

  • Iris

    Earth Womb 2nd Edition

    The Earth Womb was a profound journey.

    Over four days, I went through cycles of release, reflection, and renewal ,dying and being reborn in ways that can only be felt, not spoken.

    It was a deep process of shedding layers, coming home to my body, and remembering my connection to the Earth and reclaiming my feminine strength and wisdom.

    I feel deeply honoured to have sat with Antara, whose wisdom and presence carry such depth and grace, and with Lina, who held space for our transformation with so much care.

    And to the women in the circle — thank you for your courage, your vulnerability, your sisterhood.

    I leave this experience with a quiet strength and an open heart , grounded, humbled, and reborn.
