In a sauna, the distribution of heat in your body depends on your body’s position. If the sauna isn’t crowded, it is more efficient to lie flat on the bench to allow for the heat to reach the entire length of your body.
One thing to remember during a sauna session is that it is supposed to be RELAXING! Try to focus on the present moment, and cut off all extraneous thoughts and upcoming “to-do lists”.
The experience of relaxation can be enhanced through the use of added essential oils to promote calmness and well-being. Aromas such as lavender, sandalwood, and eucalyptus are particularly effective in soothing and uplifting your mood.
