What is Inipi?

Inipi is a spiritual, emotional, and physical purification ceremony as historically and contemporarily
practiced by the Lakota People and the followers of Lakota traditions.  A more commonly used term is
"Sweat Lodge" or "Purification Lodge".  Variations of this ceremony are common to almost all
indigenous peoples across North America.  Historically, Inipi was used to purify and prepare one's
self prior to taking part in other ceremony or rites.  More recently it has evolved into a significant
ceremony in it's own right, and is used for prayer, cleansing, healing, and general wellness, in
addition to it's historical usage.  For more information click Inipi 101
