Sauna: The Power of Deep Heat by Emma O'Kelly, photographs by Maija Astikainen

There is a new wave of sauna culture spreading across UK and beyond. Saunas are being built in unique settings providing tech-free spaces in which to gather, share stories and enjoy nature. The tradition has a rich history, filled with rituals that encourage us to soak up the mental and physical health benefits of deep heat. 

This book honours the old, embraces the new, and plunges headlong into the transformative power of steam. 

"Smartly written and beautifully illustrated... A celebration of a cultural resurgence and a reminder of the power of connecting with nature and something larger than ourselves. It's a tonic for my heart, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did." - Mikkel Aaland, author of Sweat.
