I am writing the "Liver Health" module, the topic is sauna and I wanted to share few thoughts on this. Let's go back in time :) Growing up, sauna was not a wellness tool. It was just life. Every single night without fail, we had a sauna, 100-120 C degrees! We sat, we sweated, we forgot about the day. We talked, we let the body relax and we wound down. That was how the day officially ended. And in winter, we would run from the steaming hot sauna straight to the frozen lake, jump through the hole cut in the ice, completely naked, then run back in. It was glorious and completely normal to us. That is where my relationship with sauna started. And it has never changed. I genuinely believe traditional sauna is one of the most powerful health and wellness tools available to us. The heat, the sweat, the cardiovascular response, the nervous system reset, the sleep that follows. There is nothing quite like it. And decades of serious research backs this up. Studies following thousands of people over 20 plus years show significant reductions in cardiovascular disease, dementia, respiratory conditions and overall mortality. This is not trend wellness. This is a thousands of years old practice with real evidence behind it. And then there is infrared....... I'll be honest. I can't get on board with it and here's why. Infrared feels to me like a modern, convenient, slightly sterile version of sauna that arrived with very big marketing claims and very little actual research to back them up. I am not convinced about the exposure to the frequencies either. The studies on traditional sauna have been building for decades. The infrared research is thin, recent, and in some areas raises more questions than it answers. My concerns around infrared come down to a few things. Near infrared has been linked to cataract development with repeated exposure, there are open questions around how it interacts with cells that already have some damage, and sitting centimetres away from heating panels multiple times a week for years raises EMF questions that nobody has properly answered yet. Not proven harmful, but not proven safe either and that gap is enough for me.

We had quite a few light bulb moments during this session, and it was full of surprises. Here is the raw, uncut version of our conversation. We covered: • What is behind most self-sabotage situations • What opportunities may be hidden within these moments • How we can expand our understanding of these so-called "weak" moments • How to turn internal pressure and feeling stuck into a more relaxed and even fun experience A few things I wrote down for myself were: LIFE IS CHANGE and OPPORTUNITY I'd love to hear your thoughts. Please ask your questions, share any light bulb moments, and let us know if there is anything you think you can do differently from now on. Thank you, Ben, for your presence, guidance, and insights. His community is YOUR EMPOWERED PATH in case you feel the pull to check out his work :)

Just a quick reminder and a link to the Live session today at 3.30 pm AEST with Ben Grant Mitchell. Our topic will be self sabotage and not being happy with our own body. I cant wait to pick his brain :) The access link is below. Feel free to leave any questions here in case you can't attend the live. CLICK HERE to go to the live or find it in the Calendar tab.

I am excited to let you know that Ben Grant Mitchell (Freedom from self-sabotage coach) will be joining us live on Tuesday, 16th June at 3:30 pm AEST (Brisbane time). Our topic will be self sabotage and not being happy with our own body. Please save the date if you'd like to join us live. The access link is below. Ben is also the author of a book "Your Word Is Law" and the creator of Your Empowered Path, a community focused on healing frequency hypnotherapy, subconscious transformation, confidence, creativity, abundance, health, relationships, and personal growth. What I find particularly fascinating about Ben's work is his approach to mindset. He combines affirmations, hypnotherapy, binaural beats, and healing frequencies into a daily practice designed to help create lasting change from the inside out. Ben also has a background in acting and music, which really shines through in the quality and depth of his audio experiences. During our conversation, I'll be picking Ben's brain on all things mindset, healing, self-talk, subconscious patterns, and how the words we repeat can influence the way we experience life. I cannot wait to ask my questions, and I would love your help too. If you already know you won't be able to attend live, please leave your questions in the comments below and I'll do my best to ask them during the interview. Don't worry if you can't make it live. A recording will be available afterwards. I'll also share a link to Ben's community, Your Empowered Path, for anyone who would like to explore more of his work. 👉 Live access link or go to Calendar and click on the live event to jump in. 👉 Your questions for Ben: Leave them in the comments below.
