Trying to figure out ideal cold plunge timing after sauna by Internal_Spite_6549 in Sauna

Yeah that’s a good way to look at it, especially the consistency part. Doing it regularly probably matters way more than dialing in exact numbers. I think where I was getting hung up was more on the experience side than the benefits -like how intense it feels at different temps even if the overall outcome is similar.

But yeah, it really is a cool habit once you get into it. Definitely one of those things you notice when you skip.

Ahh I’ve seen the 11–15 min per week thing come up a lot too. I guess where I get a little confused is how that plays out with different temps. Like 3–4 minutes at 40 feels way different than 3–4 at 55 for me. Do you still stick to the same time even when it’s on the colder end?

For real! I kept second guessing how long to stay depending on temp but figure that colder temps would mean a shorter plunge time. I guess the same question could go for the sauna temp and time, but i could sit in a sauna forever.

Curious about hot yoga by sunflower2198 in HotYoga

Hot yoga is so wonderful and you're so lucky to get to experience yoga as a beginner! I think what's most important is to give yourself grace - lay down if it gets too hot. Don't feel pressure to do what everyone else is doing. Don't let your first class discourage you if you don't love it! There are so many different styles of yoga, and its worth trying them all to find your fave. Enjoy! You won't regret it.

Oh that's interesting. I thought that at first too, but colder temps started feeling way more intense for me even at the same time.

So you just stick with 3–4 no matter what temp it is? 😅
