This Might Be the Best 'Exercise' You’re Not Doing

There’s all kinds of science available on why saunas are so good for us.

The Scandinavians have been big fans of this practice for countless years, and now we can catch up. Long-term studies show that using a sauna a few times a week is good for your brain, your heart, your mood, and your lungs. Win after win!

This article on Health.com tells us that sauna use “has been linked to a lesser risk of high blood pressure, suffering a stroke, and developing respiratory diseases and dementia.” Regular use can improve blood flow and overall cardiovascular health, which is very good for the brain.

It’s essentially exercising while sitting still.

And this is what most people associate the sauna with: a good sweat. This combo is a two-pronged calorie burner. Your heart is working as if you’re on a brisk walk, and your body is working hard to cool you down.

All that’s required is sitting for five to twenty minutes and enjoying the benefits. Well that, and the actual sauna. To see more protocols, check out this article on the Huberman Lab.

Best At-Home Red Light Therapy Sauna

And if you love using a sauna, you’ve probably dreamed of having one in your home.

Luckily for you, there are a bunch on the market now that range in both price and size. If you search around, you’ll probably come across a bunch of build-it-yourself one and two person sauna kits.

But maybe you’re short on space. Or maybe you travel a lot and you want the benefits of a sauna without having to find a spa everywhere you go. It’s true that there are also these types of portable options on the market, but they may be bulky to travel with.

We love living in the time we do, because it means access to things like the LifePro Sauna Blanket.

At its best, technology makes things easier AND fun. And that’s exactly what this does. You can get the same benefits of a sauna except you’re laying down in your house. Or at your friend’s house. Or at a hotel. Because you can take this baby anywhere.
