The interview

Why is Sunlighten your sauna of choice?

Sunlighten is my sauna of choice and one that I recommend both to my friends, my family, and my audience because number one, I know they stand behind their quality they are deeply obsessed with saunas and infrared technology and staying on the cutting edge and they also stand by and have great customer service.

How often do you use your Sunlighten sauna?

I love my Sunlighten Sauna, I'm on my second one not because my first one went bad. Actually, we sold the first one and got even a bigger one because we just use it so much.

What is the primary health benefit you teach your clients regarding saunas?

One of the key things that I teach my clients to do is detoxify daily and one of the most important ways that you can detoxify is by sweating. Exercise of course is one great way to do that but another great way to do that and especially to get into those toxins deep in your fat is through an infrared sauna.

What unexpected benefits have you noticed since installing one in your home?

It is the best thing to do before bed to really help enhance your sleep. Next off, I'm finding that's really helping me recover from the gym and reduce that inflammation and so it's gone way beyond, way beyond detoxification, it's recovery, it's reducing inflammation, it's improving sleep, It's just relaxing.

What was your experience with the different sauna programs?

At first, I was just using the detoxification program all the time and then I played around and hit the cardio, the cardiovascular program. And what surprised me the most was first of all, how much I sweated but also seeing on my Oura ring how the intensity it thought I was working out which was just crazy.

How does sauna use relate to your philosophy on aging?

Longevity means powerful aging to me and what powerful aging means is that we're able to do the things that we took for granted in our twenties and thirties and now we can do them in our fifties, sixties, seventies, eighties, and beyond. One of the key things with powerful aging is to preserve or better yet build quality muscle and saunas actually can help you with recovery and muscle protein synthesis.
