Heat is a hormetic stress.

Not all stress is bad. Some stress teaches the body to become more resilient.
This is called hormesis.
Sauna, hot baths and controlled heat exposure can act like a tiny βtraining sessionβ for your cardiovascular and stress-response systems.

The key word is controlled.
Too much = burden.
The right dose = adaptation.
This is why anti-inflammatory living is not about avoiding all stress.
Itβs about choosing the right stress, in the right dose, with enough recovery.
A hot bath can be more than comfort.
It can be a signal: adapt, circulate, recover.
Do you prefer sauna, hot bath or warm shower rituals? π
