A traditional Finnish experience

6:19

foreigners to

6:19

experience a very traditional

6:21

wood-heated sauna. You know, you can't

6:23

really visit Finland without visiting a

6:26

sauna because it's it's not you haven't

6:28

experienced what true Finland and true

6:31

Finnish culture is all about.

6:35

We Finns don't sweat and run. When

6:37

you're finished in the sauna, shower off

6:39

with soap. Taking a shower will calm

6:41

your heart rate and complete the

6:43

experience of physical and mental

6:45

cleansing.

6:46

Then continue this experience with a

6:48

cold drink and a snack to hydrate and

6:50

restore the sodium that you sweat out.

6:52

Conveniently here at Löyly, we have a

6:54

restaurant with plenty of refreshing

6:55

options. I recommend the traditional

6:57

fish soup.

6:59

The most important thing now is to take

7:01

some time to enjoy the blissful

7:03

post-sauna feeling.

7:09

Some Finns might love the sauna for the

7:11

social aspect. Others might love this

7:13

experience for the physical and mental

7:15

benefits. What's universally agreed upon

7:18

in Finland is that the sauna is the

7:20

perfect way to let stress melt away. It

7:22

just might be the key to why Finns are

7:25

the happiest people on Earth.
