Detailed program description

Welcome, a tasting of delicious signature tea, and getting guests ready for the practice.

First encounter with the heat. A gentle warm-up helps you tune into your sensations, quiet your thoughts, and prepare your body for the practice ahead.

The program begins with a hot steam room. Fragrant steam made from fresh herbs, music, and light breathing practices guided by the host help you relax.

Transition into cold water (7–8°C) guided by the host. The goal is not to endure, but to experience the contrast calmly and mindfully.

Relaxation in the warm pool. Cool water is offered to enhance the effect.

After the cold, you return to the warm steam room. Breathing evens out, the body recovers, and the effect of the contrast unfolds even deeper through this second cycle.

A final pause for rest and recovery: kvass, tea, silence, and time to feel the changes in your state. Guests usually leave the practice calmer, more focused, and filled with positive energy.

The heat gradually opens up the body, releases muscle tension, and helps you slow down. Breathing becomes deeper, and attention naturally shifts from the outside world to inner sensations.
