Join Adele, Somatic Practitioner, for a women’s evening of coming home to your body. Through gentle somatic practices and a guided inner journey, you’ll learn simple tools to regulate your nervous system - and reconnect with the quiet wisdom that lives within you. We’ll weave this inner work together with the heat of the sauna and the cold plunge, letting the hot/cold therapy deepen what the body is already learning. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or simply craving time to slow down, this evening is an invitation back to yourself.

*Engaging Discomfort, Men’s Sauna Evening*

Men are often taught to push through discomfort. Few are taught how to stay present with it.

This guided evening moves between the heat of the sauna and the cold of the ocean, exploring how we meet intensity in the body and in life. Through simple embodiment practices, breathwork, and grounded conversation, we’ll create space to slow down, regulate, and engage discomfort with awareness rather than resistance.

No performance. No pressure. Just a chance to step outside the usual patterns and experience something real together.

Come as you are. Leave with a stronger capacity to stay.

Booking essential, booking link attached. ✨

Last week we gathered at Simon’s Town for a very special evening of Sauna & Stargazing with 🔭✨

Between rounds of heat in the sauna and cool dips in the ocean, we stepped outside to look up. With hibiscus & cherry blossom tea gently on the boil, Shaun shared stories and knowledge of the night sky as we peered through the telescope.

Jupiter was shining brightly, and through the lens we could see three of its moons sitting beside it in the darkness. Moments like that remind you just how big and beautiful the universe really is.

There was a heatwave in Cape Town yesterday, but between the sea breeze, the sauna, and the stillness of the night, we hardly felt it. Just good company, warm tea, starry skies, and the rhythm of sauna and cold water.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for such a special evening under the stars. 🌌

The world can wait.
The emails can wait.
The noise can wait.

Inside, it’s just heat, breath, and presence.
A moment to soften. A moment to reset. A moment to return to yourself.

This is your permission to pause.

ARTICLE UPDATE! 🔥
We realize this issue has been out for several months, but we’re a bit slow on the uptake sometimes.

Read Jari’s take on sauna, cold plunge and a bit about ShuShu’s journey!

This is from the October 2025 issue of Balanced Life magazine. Pick it up wherever you may still buy magazines! Or most likely purchase it online. The way our grandparents did.

At this past year, we had the honour of meeting
Steven is cold plunge facilatator and someone who truly values moments of stillness through ice baths and sauna.

For him, sauna is more than heat.
It’s a reset and a recalibration.

Here’s his take on what sauna does for him. 🔥❄️

We had the incredible lead several sauna journey’s with us at Retreat Yourself, showing us how heat, cold, and breath are our the teachers.🔥🧊💨

A sauna journey is no ordinary session, with some expert instruction we join a cohesive atmosphere quickly, focusing our beings and letting ourselves be carried through the wisdom of the teacher.✨

Have you experienced a guided sauna session and what was your biggest take away? 🌬️

We partnered with over the weekend to bring a little extra sweetness to the sauna ✨🍫

Their artisanal chocolates were an absolute client favourite the perfect indulgent treat after a session of heat, connection and relaxation.

We felt nothing but love walk through our doors. Thank you to everyone who chose to celebrate with us ❤️

Here’s to warmth, community, and sweet collaborations.
