Settle in the here and now.
Reach down into the center
where the world is not spinning
and drink this holy peace.

Feel relief flood into every
cell. Nothing to do. Nothing
to be but what you are already
Nothing to receive but what
flows effortlessly from the
mystery into form.

Nothing to run from or run
toward. Just this breath,
Awareness knowing itself as
embodiment. Just this breath,
awareness waking up to truth.

Just Breathe by Danna Faulds

    Detailed directions will be in your booking email.

  • The guide is there to make sure everything runs smoothly and to help you enjoy the experience to its fullest. We will keep the fire hot, answer questions, walk you through a typical sauna cycle of hot, cold, rest, rehydrate, and repeat.

  • To get the most out of your sauna experience we recommend hydrating prior to coming. Make sure you are drinking plenty of water and not eating too close to your session. Once you arrive a guide will check you in and give you some tips on getting started. You’ll grab a towel and head in to enjoy the heat (usually 180°F - 200°F) for about 10 - 20 minutes. Remember to always listen to your body. Taking a break when it feels right for you is completely ok and recommended. Next, you’ll get to enjoy some cold! Depending on the season and where Fox & Flame is located, you’ll be able to enjoy the cold via a dip in the beautiful Lake Michigan, a cold dip in an ice bath, a cold shower, or maybe just relaxing in the cool outside air. When ready, allow yourself time to rest and rehydrate prior to starting the cycle over again. Remember that everyone is different and what your body needs can change each time you join us. A typical session allows for 2-4 cycles.
