What are your negative experiences in saunas?

1. Men.

2. Didn’t get the appeal of being hot and sweating. Tried a few times, not my thing.

3. The heat and the sweating. I passed out after 10 minutes.

4. I burned my hand when I was younger, maybe 4 yo. My parents always took me to sauna with them (Finnish tradition)

5. I don’t think I have negative experiences even though I’ve been to a sauna so many times since pretty much every house has their own sauna or many houses share one common sauna you can go to, and it’s very common to go to a sauna. I have been to women’s only and mixed saunas both a lot.

   Sometimes if I haven’t drank water I get a bit dizzy, maybe that.
