What is saunotus?
An experience rooted in tradition
A sauna ritual is a guided multisensory sauna ritual rooted in Finnish cultural heritage. It brings old sauna traditions to life through mythology, ritual songs, gifts of nature, scents, elements, and löylyâthe steam that is both the spirit and the warmth of the sauna.

Smoke sauna also for companies and groups
The smoke sauna offers a peaceful environment for occupational well-being days, small groups, and joint sauna evenings by the bank of the Sipoonjoki river. In addition to traditional sauna sessions, rituals, and treatments, the day can be combined with, for example, a forest walk, forest yoga, wilderness dining at a lean-to, or a whisk-making workshop.

A new episode of the Spirit of Sauna podcast has been released! đïž
The sauna is often associated with silence, calming down, and rituals. But the sauna has always been a place for celebration, too.
In this episode of the Spirit of Sauna podcast, we ponder what celebrating in the sauna actually means. âSauna parties,â where music, lights, and crowds are brought into the sauna, are becoming increasingly common around the world. In Finland, however, the connection between the sauna and celebration runs much deeper. The sauna has been a central part of Midsummer, Christmas, weddings, and other important moments of the annual cycle.
However, celebration does not have to mean noise. A meaningful sauna celebration can be quiet, slow, and ritualistic. Perhaps celebration is ultimately about giving a certain moment the attention it deserves.
What then makes a good sauna party? Can silence and celebration belong together? And what can old traditions teach us about the art of celebrating today?
Link to the episode in bio!
The busiest day of the week is behind us. Now the last shifts have been sweated in the sauna, the fires are dying down at the lean-to, and silence descends upon the Sipoo River Valley. And now darkness as well, like a great blanket.
Autumn is here! đđ»
You can come to the smoke sauna in many ways! đ„
If you are looking for company and a regular sauna evening, come to the public session. Men have their sauna on Mondays, women on Tuesdays, and Wednesdays are for silent sauna. On weekends, the sauna fills up with people from near and far.
If you want to dive a little deeper into the sauna tradition, on Peat Thursdays in the smoke sauna, a steam greeting and a peat ceremony are performed. On weekends, sauna rituals are held in Rauni.
You can also book the sauna entirely for your own group. A free public slot can be booked as a private session, Fridays are mainly reserved for private groups, and evening after-sweats are available after the public session of the day.
And if you are looking for treatments to go with your sauna experience, whisking, peat, herbs, and more thorough traditional sauna treatments are available.
Which of these sounds the most appealing to you? đ
You can book via the bio or at: saunotus.fi
Autumn's traditional sauna evenings are starting as early as next Friday! đ„
There is still room for a few more sauna-goers on the first evening. During the evening, you will get to experience a traditional sauna ritual in the heat of a smoke sauna, surrounded by birch whisks, herbs, and old sauna customs.
Traditional sauna evenings are held about once a month until Christmas. The cycle of the year is present in the sauna: moving from late summer's fresh plants toward the autumn Kekri time, darkening evenings, and finally winter's rest. Each evening is slightly different and follows the rhythm of the year's cycle.
If you are interested in the Finnish sauna and sauna culture in general, this is one of those experiences you just have to experience, at least once in your lifetime!

You didn't graduate as a saunamaster before, you grew into it. đđ»
Just a few generations ago, the art of bathing people in the sauna was passed down from person to person. Sauna bathing was learned by watching, listening, and doing together.
In the Terve Löyly sauna guide training, we have wanted to preserve as much of this tradition as possible. The days are spent in practical work, participating in seasonal saunas, practicing sauna treatments and ceremonies, and discussing themes related to the sauna and sauna guiding.
Every steam session teaches something, and every season reveals a new side of the sauna. Gradually, an understanding emerges that is difficult to convey other than in a nature-close environment by doing things together.
If this way of learning feels right for you, you can find more information and registration on our website: saunakoulutus.fi

A new episode of the Spirit of Sauna podcast has been released! đïž
There is still time to gather nature's gifts for winter sauna sessions, but not for much longer. That is why it felt like a good time to release this conversation recorded back in June.
In this episode, we dive into one of the deepest questions of the sauna tradition, namely the worldview.
How we understand the basic nature of reality affects everything. A worldview influences how we relate to the body, healing, rituals, nature, and ultimately even what we believe actually happens in the sauna. Before we can consider how to give a sauna treatment, we must first ask what we believe sauna treatments can influence in the first place.
Old sauna incantations speak of God, spirits, and invisible forces. But what are these actually referring to? Do these words point to supernatural beings, symbolic language, or something entirely different? The answer is not at all self-evident!
In this episode, these questions are not dodged. Instead, we openly explore whether there could be a coherent way of understanding reality behind old sauna traditions. We also discuss what sauna culture more broadly looks like from the perspective of an entire worldview.

The last working bee of the summer đż
Here, next winter's sauna scents are being prepared. The herbs are carefully dried so that their fragrances can be enjoyed in the smoke sauna even in the middle of the coldest winter.
It's starting to look pretty good already! đ€
At its best, a smoke sauna is also a place for gathering. Thank you @luontohenkiakatemia for your visit and rewarding discussions! đ„
âToday we went to the jungle.
No. Today Juha and I visited Sauna-Akka, traditional sauna therapist Laura Foo at the Sipoonjoki traditional sauna, to record online lectures for the Nature Spirit Academy. đż
Breathtakingly great stuff was created just as intended - and oh, what a place. People, go to the sauna and sauna treatments in Sipoo. Smoke sauna, ceremonial sauna, lean-tos, hot tubs, and whatever atmospheric sauna stuff you could wish for.
Warm thanks and hugs to wonderful Laura đ Material will be released in the Nature Spirit Academy in August.â
Now @sauna.ukko has hit the nail on the head!
âIf someone had told me as a kid that this is what I'd be doing when I grew up⊠đŹ
Thanks for the challenge @kolmecosmetics. Apparently, even the profession of a smoke sauna heater can be made to sound criminal. đđ„â
