That's what a sauna is about !

A 20min session (10min/1min pause/10min) and jumping in cold water will give you a dizziness state, lay down and enjoy !

You will feel refreshed, new-born, all negativity drown away, no-invasive thoughts of your subconscious... Just a climax-feeling of peacefulness ! (Until you're back to you 10-17 routine...)

Sauna sessions are awsome !

Oh I totally agree. Saunas are awesome. I just don't have one in my house.

Isn't going from a sauna to cold water and back bad for the heart? I worked with a French-Finnish guy for a while who told me half his family are on heart medication because of it.

I heard everything and it's contrary. But that's more of a how many times/week you do it thing IMO.

I'm not a doctor or any specialist but rather on the safe side of things. It's the dose that makes the difference. If you drink 5 liters of water in less than 1 min, it will probably kill you... But that doesn't stop me drinking water every day.

And yes I can imagine all Nordic people doing it like 5 time a week? Is probably way to much... It also depends on other factors (genetics?).

Just my 2cent, don't take it for granted.
