Meet Ian! Ian owns the property where our lovely sauna operates and is a dear friend. He happens to be a HUGE lover of saunas and even built his very own. He comes down in his sauna hat and gear to join a session now and then and everyone always enjoys meeting him. He has been a sauna fan since his early 20's and nothing has changed 50+ years later. He even has a crazy story of saunaing up North on Baffin Island where they all tried to leave the sauna but had to turn around and go back in because.....THERE WAS A POLAR BEAR OUTSIDE EATING A SEAL CARCASS!! I think it's safe to say not many folks would have THAT story to share.
The sauna is a place where all ages can connect and chat. From what we understand about Blue Zones and longevity, being connected to community members of ALL ages is very important for our health. We have a few seniors that frequent the sauna, but not nearly as many as we saw when we lived in Ireland. That was our fav part. Meeting and talking with folks of all ages who experienced life differently. We loved all their stories!
As age and mobility become a factor, the sauna is an easy tool to keep your health in check. Aging doesn't mean you can't make new friends and have new experiences. Feeling lonely? Wanna talk? Come to the sauna.
