A sauna is more than washing — it is a return to yourself.
The first time can feel a little overwhelming, especially if you don’t know what to expect, but with a bit of preparation it becomes a beautiful and liberating experience.
🌿 Listen to Yourself
Before going to the sauna, take a moment for yourself. Ask — how do I feel, what do I need today?
A sauna ritual is not a competition but a journey toward inner peace. Allow yourself to simply be — just as you are.
🧺 What to Bring
- Towel and robe — to stay warm after the ritual.
- Comfortable clothing — easy to put on afterward.
- Openness and time for yourself — the most important things.
If you prefer, you can come in a swimsuit — that’s completely fine, especially if nudity feels uncomfortable.
Your wellbeing is what matters most.
☕ Before the Sauna — a Light Meal
Choose light food a couple of hours before the sauna.
A full stomach or alcohol makes it harder for the body to feel the warmth and relax.
Better choose warm tea, honey, fruit.
🔥 During the Sauna
Listen to your breath. If it becomes too hot or you feel tired — say so.
A sauna ritual is a shared process between you and the sauna master, and your body’s sensations are the most important guide.
💧 After the Sauna
After the ritual, allow yourself a moment of silence. Drink warm tea, sit down, and enjoy the lingering warmth.
Remember — the sauna’s effect continues long after you’ve gone home.
Your first time in the sauna often becomes a turning point.
It helps you see how much strength and peace there is in natural warmth and touch.
Next time you’ll already know — this is a place where the body gives thanks and the mind smiles.
