Traditional Sauna vs Infrared. Here's My Honest Take.
I am writing the "Liver Health" module, the topic is sauna and I wanted to share few thoughts on this. Let's go back in time :) Growing up, sauna was not a wellness tool. It was just life. Every single night without fail, we had a sauna, 100-120 C degrees! We sat, we sweated, we forgot about the day. We talked, we let the body relax and we wound down. That was how the day officially ended. And in winter, we would run from the steaming hot sauna straight to the frozen lake, jump through the hole cut in the ice, completely naked, then run back in. It was glorious and completely normal to us. That is where my relationship with sauna started. And it has never changed. I genuinely believe traditional sauna is one of the most powerful health and wellness tools available to us. The heat, the sweat, the cardiovascular response, the nervous system reset, the sleep that follows. There is nothing quite like it. And decades of serious research backs this up. Studies following thousands of people over 20 plus years show significant reductions in cardiovascular disease, dementia, respiratory conditions and overall mortality. This is not trend wellness. This is a thousands of years old practice with real evidence behind it. And then there is infrared....... I'll be honest. I can't get on board with it and here's why. Infrared feels to me like a modern, convenient, slightly sterile version of sauna that arrived with very big marketing claims and very little actual research to back them up. I am not convinced about the exposure to the frequencies either. The studies on traditional sauna have been building for decades. The infrared research is thin, recent, and in some areas raises more questions than it answers. My concerns around infrared come down to a few things. Near infrared has been linked to cataract development with repeated exposure, there are open questions around how it interacts with cells that already have some damage, and sitting centimetres away from heating panels multiple times a week for years raises EMF questions that nobody has properly answered yet. Not proven harmful, but not proven safe either and that gap is enough for me.

Thx Kelli great info. What’s your thoughts on steam rooms? My gym has both and I haven’t used them in years. One more question - is there an age limit to the benefits?
Support For Your Nervous System.
Me and Liz Patti (Master EFT Practitioner) are planning to create something useful for your mindset. We know that the mental chatter can create obstacles in healing. We will put together something that is effortless, simple and usable every time you need to reset your mind. SO we need your little input. Have a browse over these questions and just answer what comes in mind (you don't have to answer all of them). Type the number and leave your comment. This is co-creation. I am very excited about this because I know how much we all need this :) 1. The Instant Reaction When you slip up on a habit or eat something outside of your "plan," what is the very first thought that pops into your head? (e.g., "I already blew it, might as well keep eating," "I have no willpower," "I have to start over Monday."-- Use your own words here and be as specific as you can. 2. The Body Check-In When you feel like you aren't doing your health routine "perfectly," where do you feel that stress or tightness in your body? (e.g., a knot in your stomach, a tight chest, heavy shoulders?) 3. The Main Emotion What is the biggest feeling that hits you in those moments? (e.g., Guilt, shame, frustration, or fear of losing control?- something else?) 4. The Critic's Favorite Phrase If your inner health critic had one favourite phrase it tells you when you aren't being perfect, what would it be?

Alright detectives… it’s time to go through your kitchen 👀 Fridge. Pantry. Snack drawer. Find that “healthy” protein bar you swear is fine… 👉 Your task: 1. Find anything that might contain artificial sweeteners(or something you’re just not 100% sure about 🤔) 2. Then…Take a photo of the INGREDIENTS LIST (the back!) 3. Drop it in the comments And yes… we are going to ROAST them 🔥 (kindly… but truthfully). I will tell you if there is anything good at all or if it is total waste of money and health. You might be surprised where these sneaky little things hide… Let’s clean up your pantry one label at a time. I will go hunt some down and start the post.

LIVE 31 March: Mindset Patterns That Quietly Slow Down Healing (and How to Reset Them)
In this live session, I talk about the mindset patterns that quietly slow down healing and what you can do to reset them. We explore common habits I see in many women on their health journey — feeling overwhelmed, chasing perfection, rushing results, staying stuck in research mode, or finding it hard to prioritise themselves — and how these can affect the body’s ability to heal. I also share simple mindset shifts that help you move forward with more ease, consistency, and trust in your body, so your healing journey feels calmer and more supportive rather than pressured. 💛 Premium members get access here CLICK HERE

That’s a really good chat Kelli. I think I’ve nearly had all of those patterns at some stage. You are just so right about ‘slow down’ and watch nature- the body just loves that. Perfectionism was probably my biggest hurdle to overcome and I attribute practicing Yoga Nidra as one of the most helpful in this regard. I don’t think one ever overcomes the issue BUT one learns to recognise it - that’s the magic.
