E202: How heat and cold therapy have the power to change your physical and mental health with Luis Leonardo AKA "The Sauna Papi"

The "Sauna Papi" is none other than Luis Leonardo, the co-founder of Sauna Strong, a sauna and cold therapy service. Luis's name developed organically through countless sauna sessions with close friends, who recognized his passion for creating a space where people could connect and share an experience while working through extreme heat.

With the help of his right-hand man, Harrison Klein, a breathing guru, Luis has now formalized the Sauna Papi lifestyle, applying breath to essential stressors such as sauna, cold, and exercise. This approach has transformed their lives and they are now excited to share it with the world.

Through workshops, classes, and retreats, Sauna Papi and Harrison offer a structured approach to wellness that enables individuals to develop a toolbox around breath and mindset, better equipping them to handle the stressors of life.

In this episode we discuss:

  • How heat and cold therapy can change your physical and mental health.

  • The story of "The Sauna Papi."

  • Process of submerging in cold water and what that experience is like.

  • Benefits of cold water therapy.

  • The power of breathwork during these therapies and beyond.

  • Community retreats and camps held all winter long in Minnesota.
