Join us for HEART FORGE, an experience designed to center participants
in healthy HEART-mind connection while drawing on Aufguss style sauna
practice. HEART FORGE IS BUILT FROM RESEARCH INTO HOW THE HEART
IMPACTS PERFORMANCE, functions, and influences our lived
experience. Unique to the SESSION WILL BE THE COMBINATION OF HEAT
THERAPY (which triggers the thermo-regulatory system) while
intentionally wiring the intelligence of the HEART. Participants will
be invited to engage in meditative techniques that bring the body into
coherence: a state of physiological and emotional alignment associated
with positive health benefits. The SESSION WILL BE LED BY 612
MEMBER-owner, JASON KAASOVIC, and incorporates his personal practice,
insight and research into the topics. What to bring: - Good parking
Karma! It's ski season and parking at the Trailhead can be difficult.
If you can't find a spot in the Trailhead lot, you may need to park at
the old Chalet and walk down to the trailhead. We appologize for the
inconveneince but we promise that the warm-up will be worth the walk!
- Bathing suit (required) - Water bottle - 2 Towels - one to sit on
and one to use after your SESSION. Your sitting towel should be long
enough to place your feet on the towel as well. There are hooks in the
hot room to hang your sitting towel between rounds. - Flip flops -
Lock for lockers. (Locker room and showers available onsite.) SAUNA
SOCIETY CODE The Sauna Society Code has been identified to ensure that
all guests have an enjoyable sauna and can be immersed in the health
benefits of the activity, and can be summarized as follows: At the 612
Sauna Society, our intention is to support a welcoming, respectful,
and inclusive space to enjoy the health and community benefits of
sauna. We are aware of ourselves, each other, and our surroundings to
ensure a safe environment for all sauna guests. We are aware of our
own health and safety, and we are also aware of the health of other
guests. We and our guests believe that everyone is equally worthy of
love, respect, and dignity. We believe that differences of race, age,
culture, religion, politics, sexual orientation, gender, gender
variance, body shapes and sizes, nationalities, (and beyond) are
simply part of being human and all are welcome here. In short, we
endeavour to treat each other as a family—one that loves and
respects each other. Thank you for helping us create a safe and
comfortable space for all. SAUNA TIPS Please arrive hydrated so you
can enjoy the full benefits of your time on the bench. Sauna promotes
healthy blood flow by activation of the thermoregulatory system.
Practicing full “rounds” will provide the full health benefits. A
round consists of 10-20 mins in the hot room (your body will tell you
when your time is up), followed by a cool-down period outside. Letting
your body cool down between rounds by relaxing and cooling off at the
rinse station will increase your circulation and provide the full
physical and mental benefit of the experience. A typical sauna SESSION
CONSISTS OF 3-4 rounds of this hot-cold treatment. Learn more about
the health benefits of Sauna here. AND MORE - Alcohol is not
permitted. - The Sauna will be staffed by a trained host. If you have
further questions about Sauna, The FORGE OR THE 612 SAUNA SOCIETY,
please ask a member of the Stoker Team, or email us at
volunteer@612saunasociety.com. - See you on the bench!
