At this year's tour, besides many workshops and gong massages, thanks to our special guest Andrew Begay you could also join an antient (american-indian) Navaho ceremony called Sweatlodge. The perfect basecamp for this event was ensured by our beloved Jana Hrušková in Pacov. The participants didn't only sweat, but they also built the whole lodge on their own.
