Which Winter Wellness Type Are You?
In partnership with our friends at Clearlight Saunas
You know a wellness person when you see one. Or do you? Out of a million ways to get invested in well-being (and sometimes show it), these are the three wellness-minded types we aspire to be this winter.
The Sweat Seeker
You feel most yourself when you’re breaking a sweat. The glow you get after the toughest workouts? Unmatched. A hiking trip to somewhere hotter than here? Already booked. And you’ve graduated from your weekly booking at the sauna studio down the street and shelled out for an infrared sauna of your own. It might not be your biggest flex, but it is your favorite.
-
The height of luxury is a personal sauna pumping out far and full-spectrum infrared heat. This one measures four by four feet and plugs into a standard outlet, so it’s well-suited for small spaces (whether that’s a master bathroom or the living room of your teensy downtown flat).
