Weight management is such a charged topic. Let's not overthink it. we need to work the body. We need to change our mindset. We need to take action. 

Sauna Session
- 55 to 60 degrees
- We want to work the body harder than a typical sauna session
- 20 to 30 minutes depending on your comfort levels. We should be pushing for the last few minutes, counting down the time and breathing heavy. We want the body to be working, in a slight discomfort. Heat stress is great for weight management.
- 1 to 1.5 litres of water

The Cold Shower

A cold shower afterwards does amazing things for the body. The hot to cold creates thermogenesis in our brown fat stores which helps assimilate these harder to move fat stores. 

The cold makes our body release norepinephrine and dopamine which leaves us with a natural feel good 'high' and improved mood. 

When exposed to even more mild cold temperatures of 14 degrees, the cold activates cold shock proteins. CSPs have been shown to regenerate brain synapses which leads to increases memory function.

The short is, if you go from sauna to cold shower or pool. it will help you clear away fat. increase our circulation and improve our mood and memory. A pretty good deal for just 30 seconds of discomfort.

Oils:
- Using citrus oils like grapefruit & tangerine may helps mobilise fat stores. 

Tea:
- Try cold brew peppermint after sauna to refresh and invigorate
- Dandelion tea can act as a diuretic which will help you detox more effectively.
