After a long day of deadlines, commuting, and mental overload, your body often holds onto more tension than you realise. A home sauna offers one of the simplest and most effective ways to transition from “work mode” to a state of calm.
Here’s a simple evening ritual you can follow to unwind, reset, and end the day feeling renewed.
✨ Step 1 — Create the mood (2 minutes)
Before you step inside, take a moment to set the tone.
-
Dim the lights in your room
-
Choose a warm glow on your sauna’s 7-colour therapy light
-
Connect your phone to the Bluetooth dual-speaker system and play soft music or ambient sounds
A calm atmosphere prepares your mind before the heat even begins to work.
✨ Step 2 — Set your sauna temperature (1 minute)
For a relaxing evening session, aim for:
-
45–55°C (113–131°F) in an infrared sauna
-
60–70°C (140–158°F) in a traditional steam sauna
This range encourages gentle relaxation instead of deep sweating — perfect before bedtime.
If you're using an Aurevia Ember or Ember Pro infrared sauna, the carbon or full-spectrum heaters provide steady, soothing warmth that’s ideal for restoring balance after a stressful day.
✨ Step 3 — Slow down inside the sauna (20–30 minutes)
Once inside, let your body unwind naturally.
Try any of the following:
-
Slow breathing (4 seconds in, 6 seconds out)
-
Light stretching for the neck, shoulders, and back
-
Quiet reflection or meditation
-
Enjoying the warmth in silence
Allow the heat to loosen tight muscles and calm your nervous system — something your body rarely gets during a busy day.
✨ Step 4 — Cool down the right way (5 minutes)
When your session ends:
-
Drink a glass of water or herbal tea
-
Rinse with a warm shower
-
Avoid checking work emails or notifications
This part is crucial — it “locks in” the relaxation and completes your evening reset.
✨ Why this ritual works
An evening sauna session:
-
Releases tension and stiffness accumulated from sitting all day
-
Helps your body transition from stress to recovery
-
Clears your mind and improves sleep quality
-
Provides a personal moment of peace that’s hard to find elsewhere
Your sauna becomes more than equipment — it becomes a daily grounding ritual that signals your body: the workday is over.
✨ A final note from Aurevia
Whether you use a traditional steam sauna like Nimbus, a gentle carbon-panel Ember, or the fully equipped multi-system Apex, each one is designed to support your evening wellbeing and create a calm space just for you.
