Man switches off phone, finds real rest in sauna

Alexander hadn«t rested in a long time in a way that involved no notifications, work chats, calls marked »urgent,« or thoughts that he had again failed to do something. Work, home, chores, endless tasks. In the morning — on the phone, in the evening — too, and at night he would reach for the gadget again to check if anyone had written. At some point, the man realized: this can»t go on. And he did what no one expected of him.

He simply turned off his phone. Without warning. Without saying, «If anything, I»m here.« He turned it off and went to the sauna.

«I really let go for the first time»

While Alexander was missing for three hours at the Mir Saun center, people were looking for him. Colleagues couldn«t get through. Friends wrote in messengers. Relatives began to worry. At that time, he was sitting in the steam room, drinking tea, breathing in essential oils, and for the first time in a long time, he wasn»t in a hurry.

The Mir Saun center features six separate saunas and one hammam. They are all different in atmosphere, size, mood, and style. You can come with a large group of up to 15 people, as a couple, alone, with children or friends.

— It«s convenient that the sauna is open 24/7, so it»s very easy to choose the best time for yourself. When I called the reception, they told me about each sauna, how they differ and which one would suit me. I really let go for the first time because there was no rush, loud sounds, or triggers.

Review of the saunas at the center

The first thing Alexander noticed — it«s really beautiful here. Not »normal,« not »will do,« but atmospheric and warm. The halls are different: with a blue pool and bamboo relaxation area, with billiards, a small pool and an area for hanging out with friends, plunge pools and a hammam.

Every room is thought out to the smallest detail. Don«t like the heat of almost 100°C (212°F)? The hammam is suitable. It»s about 45°C (113°F), with wet steam and soft heat. You can warm up calmly without overloading your body. If you want to have cool fun — the sauna with billiards is suitable. If you come with children — you can choose a hall with table football.

What else Mir Saun impressed Alexander with

The man came here just to reboot, but in the end he also got a relaxing effect as a bonus. The thing is, the sauna helps to boost blood circulation, relax muscles, remove toxins, cleanse the skin and relieve accumulated stress.

— I felt such lightness, as if a backpack full of bricks had been taken off me. To consolidate the effect, I also went to the jacuzzi.

At Mir Saun, they advise using essential oils that aromatize the air in the steam room, saturate it and penetrate the body. There are oils of cedar, spruce, fir, pine, juniper, lemon, lemon balm, rosemary to choose from. They provide not just a pleasant aroma, but full relaxation: muscles relax and the head clears of unnecessary thoughts.

Who comes here

In the morning, families most often relax here. In the afternoon — quiet companies. In the evening — friends who just want to relax, and at night those who don«t want to end the fun. About 20% of the guests are women»s groups. Girls come for care, treatments, relaxation. They do masks, use their own products, rest without fuss. There are also records. At Mir Saun, there have been companies that stayed here for several days in a row because they didn«t want to leave.

They have everything

Here, you don«t need to bring bags filled with bathroom and kitchen supplies. Every guest gets a towel, slippers, shampoos, oils and care. For those who like to eat well, — the bar and kitchen work 24/7. You can order shashlik (skewers), plates of your favorite dishes, drinks. By the way, in the near future they plan to cook their own pizza. Precisely because guests often order it, especially when they come with children.

What was after three hours…

After three hours, Alexander turned on his phone. There was everything: missed calls, messages, questions: «Where were you?», «Are you okay?», «We already thought something had happened.» To which the man simply replied: «I was resting.»

After the sauna, he felt different: lighter, calmer, without internal tension and the feeling that he was late for something again.

At Mir Saun, they say: going to the sauna is a form of self-love. Not pompous, not showy, but normal and healthy. Sometimes for this it«s enough to just turn off the phone and enter the steam room.
