One of our friends that we met at Kripalu, Sarah, is in Seattle for a medical conference so we got to hang out Friday night. We went to a happy hour downtown and then went to Banya 5 to hang out in the sauna. Afterwards we hit the happy hour at the Pink Door for some awesome pizza.
The sauna is Russian style and it’s around 210 F on the upper benches. If you really want to get hot, you can beat yourself with supple oak branches. Then you go jump in the cold dip, and then it’s on to soak in the tepid salt water pool. It’s a rush.
