How the Infrared Sauna helps you switch off

How the Infrared Sauna helps you switch off

The Infrared Sauna has a lot going for it, so let’s start with the one thing pretty much everyone is carrying around right now: stress, and how to switch off from it. ‍

Oh yes, we’ve all been there. That overwhelming feeling of having too much to do and too little time. That feeling of barely keeping your head above the surface, not sure when you last took a proper deep breath. That feeling of constantly doing something and still never doing enough. Do you need a break from that feeling? A break from all that stress? We got you.

Thirty minutes in the heat is one of the few places your phone can’t follow you. It gives you room to sit still, breathe and be present, and most people walk out calmer than they walked in.

A very common symptom of too much stress is tension headaches. Not only will a sauna session help you drop your shoulders down from your ears and allow you to breathe deeper, the heat itself helps your shoulders and neck let go. Just remember to hydrate before, during and after your sauna therapy session!

A relaxed body also settles more easily at night, and that is where the recovery happens.

Basically, 30 minutes “locked up” (don’t worry - the door is not locked unless you want to, you are of course welcome to leave at any time) alone in the infrared sauna without your phone will give you a deep sweat, a calmer body and a clearer mind. And some well needed alone time. Come on in and sweat all that stress away.

Does this sound like something you might need? Yeah, we thought so. Try this:

  1. Book a 30 or 50 min infrared sauna session at www.heatbysophialie.se (if it’s your first time 30 min in the sauna is enough). Don’t forget to hydrate!
  2. When entering the infrared sauna, leave everything that’s going on in your life outside the room. No stress allowed in here.
  3. Choose the blue light, the calmest setting.
  4. Put on some soothing music or why not try a guided meditation? You can easily connect your phone to the sauna speakers and play whatever you’re in the mood for.
  5. Leave your phone outside the sauna.
  6. Lean back, close your eyes and breathe.

Sit back, sweat it out, and walk out calmer, lighter and ready for the rest of your day.
