About This Experience

Sauna builds. Cold tones. Breath activates. Together they train your vagal tone and speed up recovery. Michael breaks down how to stack heat, cold, and breath into a simple protocol for a more resilient nervous system, and how to track the change with your own heart rate variability. Includes a live breath practice you can pair with your sauna and cold plunge routine. Walk away knowing how to turn contrast therapy into real, measurable nervous system training.

This session will take place in a carpeted room. For added comfort during the session, we recommend bringing your own yoga mat
