There are forms of remembering that cannot be accessed through information alone.
They live in the pelvis, in the bones
In hormonal rhythm
In cyclical intelligence
In the living relationship between body and earth
The Earth Womb Rite is a 13 day immersive descent into ancestral female medicine through embodied ritual, ecosomatic practice and the remembering of the inner curandera.
This is not a casual retreat space.
It is a contained threshold
For thirteen days, you will enter a sacred living container where:
Ritual is practiced not performed
Symbol is embodied, not interpreted from a distance
Curanderismo is lived through the body, not romanticized
You will work directly with:
Pelvic intelligence
Hormonal Awareness
Cyclical Rhythm
Earth based ritual
Plant relationship as medicine
Nervous system capacity and embodied descent
This is remembrance approached through the body.
Thresholds We Revisit in the Rite
During the 13 days of the Earth Womb Rite™, women are guided through a series of initiatory processes that revisit foundational thresholds of life and womanhood.
These processes are rooted in Mexican curanderismo and traditional earth-based medicine, and are approached through embodied ritual, somatic practice, and relationship with the land.
Rather than isolated ceremonies, these initiations unfold within the larger field of the Rite, allowing women to move through remembrance, repair, and reorientation within their bodies and their lineage.
Some of the thresholds we work with include:
• Menarche Rite — reclaiming the first blood and the initiation into womanhood
• Journey Into Life — revisiting the threshold of birth and our arrival into the world
• Rebozo Ritual — calling the soul and restoring the body’s energetic field
• Temazcal — purification and rebirth through the traditional sweat lodge
• The Four Altars and Sacred Directions — orienting the self within the cycles of life
• The Medicine Wheel — understanding the stages and energies that coexist within the feminine journey
Each initiation is held within a carefully guided container where ritual, body, and earth become pathways for remembrance.
These are not performances of tradition, but living practices of reconnection.
This Rite is for women who:
• Feel drawn to ancestral feminine medicine
• Are ready to engage in deep embodied work
• Desire to reconnect with the intelligence of the womb and the pelvis
• Feel a call toward ritual, earth-based practice, and initiatory processes
• Are willing to spend 13 days in an immersive container of presence and transformation
This Rite may be especially resonant for women who sense that something ancient in them is asking to be remembered.
At the same time, the Earth Womb Rite™ is not designed for everyone.
It is not a retreat for casual curiosity or spiritual entertainment.
It is not a quick personal development experience.
And it is not a space for those who are unwilling to engage with their bodies, emotions, and life thresholds with sincerity.
The Rite asks for presence, commitment, and openness to entering a process that may move deeper than expected.
For the women who feel the call, however, it can become one of the most meaningful thresholds of their lives.
Over Thirteen days, you will enter a contained ecosomatic field where ritual, somatics and land are woven together.
You will experience:
Guided pelvic descent and womb based embodiment practices
Ritual processes rooted in Mexican traditional medicine and andean medicine
Hormonal and cyclical literacy as lived body awareness
Nervous system regulation within and initiatory container.
Earth based immersion and relationship with plantas as medicine
Daily practice designed to remember inner curandera intelligence
Silence, witnessing and presence
A cohort container that supports depth and continuity.

Earth Womb Rite is intentionally intimate to preserve depth and integrity.
During the Earth Womb Rite™, each woman receives a private one-on-one session with María Kiekari experiencing her healing practice Great Mother Bones Method™.
This work is one of the foundational practices of the Earth Womb methodology.
Through the Great Mother Bones Method™, María guides women through a deeply embodied healing process that restores the body’s relationship with the bones, the womb, the soul, and the living Earth.
This practice weaves together elements of traditional curanderismo including:
• rebozo bodywork
• bone touch and structural listening
• soul recalling
• womb-centered awareness
• reconnection with the Great Mother Earth
Through this work, the bones of the body are invited to remember their natural orientation with life.
Many women experience a profound sense of grounding, belonging, and inner reorganization as the body reconnects with its deeper intelligence.
This private session allows each participant to receive the work directly within the container of the Rite.
Throughout the 13 days of immersion, women do not only witness the method — they experience it.
The practices, rituals, and initiatory processes of the Earth Womb Rite™ are designed to allow participants to embody the foundations of the Great Mother Bones Method™.
For some women, the Rite will remain a powerful personal journey.
For others who feel called to eventually guide and accompany women through this work, the Rite becomes the first step toward learning the method within the Earth Womb Guide Path.
In this way, the Rite serves both as a profound initiatory experience and as the living foundation of the Earth Womb methodology.
The Earth Womb Rite™ is not designed as a retreat for temporary inspiration.
It is a threshold.
During the 13 days of immersion, women enter a field of practice where body, ritual, land, and lineage begin to reorganize how they relate to themselves and their lives.
While every woman’s experience is unique, many participants describe shifts such as:
• A deeper relationship with their womb and pelvic intelligence
• Greater understanding of their cyclical nature and hormonal rhythms
• A restored sense of belonging to the Earth and its cycles
• Healing and reorientation around key life thresholds
• A renewed connection to ancestral feminine medicine
• A stronger capacity to listen to the body and move from embodied authority
Rather than creating something new, the Rite supports women in remembering what has always lived within them.
A woman does not leave the Rite as someone different.
She leaves as someone who has crossed a threshold of remembrance.
The Earth Womb Rite™ unfolds within a carefully held container designed to support depth, safety, and integration.
Participants arrive one day prior to the formal beginning, allowing the field of the Rite to open gently through grounding, orientation, and a welcoming threshold ritual.
From there, the immersion moves through 13 full days of initiatory process, where ritual, body-based practices, and relationship with the land weave together.
Each day may include elements such as:
• embodied womb and pelvic practices
• earth-based ritual and curanderismo traditions
• initiatory processes revisiting life thresholds
• teachings around cyclical feminine wisdom
• time in nature and relationship with the elements
• collective witnessing and guided integration
While the Rite is structured and guided, the rhythm of the days also allows space for rest, reflection, and personal integration.
Participants depart the morning following the closing of the Rite, allowing the process to seal before returning to daily life.
In total, the immersion is held within a 15-day sacred container, with 13 days of full initiatory work.
The Earth Womb Rite™ unfolds over 13 full days of immersion.
The number thirteen carries deep resonance within feminine and earth-based traditions. A lunar year contains thirteen cycles, mirroring the cyclical rhythm of the feminine body and its relationship with the moon.
Across many ancestral cultures, thirteen has been associated with initiation, transformation, and the passage through important life thresholds.
Within the Earth Womb Rite™, these thirteen days allow enough time for the body to slow down, the nervous system to soften, and deeper layers of memory and wisdom to surface.
Rather than rushing through practices, the Rite moves at a rhythm that honors the natural intelligence of the body and the Earth.
Thirteen days create the space needed for descent, remembrance, and renewal.
The Earth Womb Rite™ takes place in a natural setting chosen intentionally to support the initiatory process.
Surrounded by land, trees, and open sky, the environment becomes an essential part of the work. The rhythms of nature help the body slow down, allowing deeper listening and reconnection with the cycles of the Earth.
Throughout the immersion, participants spend time in relationship with the land — through ritual, walking, silence, and embodied practices.
The place itself becomes part of the Rite.
It holds the process, mirrors the cycles we are remembering, and supports women in returning to a more intimate relationship with the living Earth.
Participation in the Earth Womb Rite™ is intentionally limited to 4 participants in order to preserve the depth and integrity of the container.
The Rite opens twice per year:
February Cohort
November Cohort
Because the immersion involves deep initiatory work and a shared ceremonial field, spaces are limited.
Women who feel the call are invited to reserve their place directly through the booking page.
Once your place is confirmed, you will receive all preparation details to support your arrival into the Rite.
The Earth Womb Rite can be experienced as a complete initiatory journey on its own.
Many women come to the Rite as a personal process of reconnection with their body, their cycles, their lineage, and the living Earth. For them, the immersion is a powerful threshold that stands complete in itself.
For others, the Rite becomes the beginning of a deeper path.
Women who feel called to eventually accompany other women through this work may apply to continue into the Earth Womb Guide Path, the online training where the Earth Womb methodology is transmitted.
This path is open only to women who have completed the Rite, ensuring that those who guide others have first embodied the work themselves.
Earth Womb is a school of ecosomatic female initiation devoted to the remembrance of ancestral womb medicine.
Through embodied ritual, earth-based practice, and initiatory processes, women reconnect with the intelligence of their bodies, their cycles, and their relationship with the living Earth.
The work is rooted in Mexican curanderismo, feminine cyclical wisdom, nervous system awareness, and rites of passage practices.
Founded by María Kiekari, Earth Womb offers immersive experiences and training paths for women who feel called not only to remember this medicine, but to embody and eventually guide it.
