One of the best parts of my job is gaining access to the latest health and wellness teachers, products and research (sometimes before they hit the market). Plus, I’m always looking for ways to hook you up and give my readers practical tools to uplevel your life!

I recently discovered the wonderful world of far infrared saunas. I can honestly say it’s changed my life and is one of the most effective tools I’ve experienced for physical and mental wellness!

For the upcoming holiday season, my friends at Sunlighten Sauna are offering my readers exclusive sale pricing and a special gift with a purchase of one of their top-selling mPulse, Signature or Solo saunas. They’ll be offering the deepest discounts of the year!

 
Because you are my treasured readers, I worked with them to include a free gift and special access to early-bird pricing (which starts today)! I’m so honored and this is fantastic because they rarely do this…so if you’re ready to make an investment in your health and happiness – or if you know someone who is struggling with a chronic imbalance (Cancer, auto-immune disorder, weightloss, anxiety) …now is the time to splurge and save some money!

I recently fell in love with the calming and detoxing effects of Sunlighten saunas and now go at least once a week for a 30 min. “sauna meditation”. Personally, I’ve been on an intense emotional roller-coaster lately and nothing helps me calm down, release toxins, emotions and get clear like this peaceful oasis. I sit in the dimly lit sauna (imagining it’s a meditation cave in the Himalayas), turn on a soothing playlist (you can plug in your iPhone or iPad) and begin a 30 min. meditation/visualization. I can literally feel the stress and toxins melting away.

It’s like yoga from the inside out – with an amazing array of health benefits and state-the-art technology! While you sit and relax, far infrared rays prompt your cells to do all the work – toxins are drawn out of the body through a deep, detoxifying sweat. It’s unlike any sweat from exercise.

The sweat produced from an infrared sauna is 7x more detoxing + effective than a traditional sauna!

So, how does this happen?  Far infrared rays have the ability to penetrate human tissue at the cellular level where most of our toxins reside (inside the fat cells).  Scientific analysis has shown that sweat produced from infrared saunas is about 80–85% water. The remaining 15–20% consisted of toxins such as heavy metals, sulfuric acid, sodium, ammonia, uric acid other fat-soluble toxins. Compare to a traditional sauna which is 97% water and 3% toxins.

Another huge plus you get from Sunlighten saunas is that they increase your core temperature by 3°F, which is the catalyst for nearly all of the known health benefits of infrared therapy.

In fact, the owners of In-Spiraling Movement Arts (where I get my saunas), brought an MPulse Sunlighten Sauna into the spa after their research on cutting-edge technologies for cancer care. When Lisa-Marie was diagnosed with breast cancer several years ago, Jessie (her husband and one of the best bodyworkers I know!!) was determined to seek out the leading edge in cancer treatments, chemotherapy/radiation recovery and immune system strengthening. He stumbled upon the vast scientific research advocating full-spectrum infrared saunas and discovered that Sunlighten was the most reputable brand. They immediately had a Sunlighten sauna installed in their spa for guests and now they both use it daily.

See the scientific research here.

Here’s a sample of just some of the CLINICALLY – PROVEN HEALTH BENEFITS:

• Pain relief – Researchers have found therapeutic benefits to back, neck, arthritis pain and injury recovery from regular use of infrared heat therapy.
• Detoxification – Studies using a Sunlighten far infrared sauna have shown a rise in core temperature resulting in a deep, detoxifying sweat at the cellular level where toxins reside.
• Weight loss – Mid and far infrared wavelengths heat the muscles and produce an increase in blood flow similar to regular exercise. It’s like getting a passive cardio workout while relaxing!  Only Sunlighten saunas have been clinically shown to help lower weight and reduce waist size during a three-month period.
• Lower Blood Pressure – Sunlighten’s Solocarbon heaters were shown to lower blood pressure through a program of 30-minute infrared sauna sessions 3 times per week.
• Anti-Aging – Flushing out harmful toxins leaves skin supple, radiant and glowing, moisturizing it from the inside out.

While I’ve often heard friends including Kris Carr rave about Sunlighten saunas, I had never experienced it first-hand. Now, it’s an integral part of my health and self-care regime…I go every Friday morning!

You can rest or meditate inside or even practice some opening postures, taking them deeper.  A recent study from Auburn University Montgomery showed that stretching in a full spectrum infrared sauna increased flexibility and range of motion, more so than without.

My personal favorite is the mPulse Sauna because it is the only one with full spectrum infrared heaters. The full infrared spectrum consists of near, mid and far wavelengths—all of which provide different health benefits. These are not your old-school saunas powered by hot rocks and steam. They work by using infrared light – the invisible part of the sun’s spectrum you feel as “dry-heat” (without the UVA/UVB rays). They’re super safe – what hospitals use to warm babies. In fact, when scientists began using infrared rays to treat wounds, they noticed that the skin around the affected area was stronger, more resilient and radiant (younger looking). Now, many aestheticians use Infrared treatment during facials for it’s anti-aging benefits! (My facialist just used an infrared lamp on me last week!)

Sunlighten saunas are also super eco-friendly: made from only sustainably harvested woods with tongue and groove construction and easy to install in any home. There are several sizes and models to choose from to meet your specific needs!

I know a sauna may seem like a pricey investment in your health and happiness, but it’s actually much more reasonable than you might think (less expensive than hot tubs or traditional saunas) and extremely energy efficient to run. Plus, you can always add it to your HOLIDAY WISHLIST or consider a purchase for someone in your life who is struggling with a chronic illness or Cancer.

If you’re curious, take a spin around the SUNLIGHTEN WEBSITE to discover the benefits and immense scientific research backing it up. Full-spectrum infrared saunas are commonly used in Europe and Japan as an integral part of a comprehensive, efficacious medical protocol.
