Oh wow! That looks like Heaven- except I'd have to get REALLY hot before I'd consider submerging myself in ice water. I used to do the sweatlodge/snow plunges when I was a kid (and I've hated being cold my whole life), but I never minded the snow because my body was so warm that the snow felt wonderful. Man, thank you! I haven't pulled those memories up for decades!
Looks great! Love the outdoor setup near the cold plunge👍 Right now we have a small grow tent and far infrared lights, the type used to hatch baby chicks. All indoors. Maybe we will add steam to the mix. Thanks for sharing, Nate.
yes those can be effective as well... I have one inside that is a small grow tent with a steam generator that basically just boils water and pumps the steam into the room... it's fantastic because of how convenient it is and you get a really decent sweat from it.... still doesn't come close to matching the wood fired tent though!
Hi Nate, Thank you so much for sharing this with the tribe today ( 9-9-24 ) winters in Indiana have always been so hard for me, I know this is going to be a life changer for me !!!
What about all the smoke that escapes from the fireplace into the tent and your BREATHING? How i that experience and your lungs afterwards from smoke inhalation in SMALL ENCLOSED space? Sincerly?
This isn't an option for the PSG, im thinking an electric kettle in the cupboard upstairs with a sage stick, you need to improvise and overcome sometimes.
@@thrive-like-a-viking Hi Nate, I’m so sorry that I didn’t respond with sending my letter/package to you yet. Yes, I was thrilled when I received the package. I had just had my second hand surgery and was not able to write my note to you or drive to the post office to send you a package due to the surg. I am so grateful and planting them today. Should be mailing out a package for you by the end of this week. I’ll let you know when it should be arriving..may have some plants in it as well🙏😊
Hey Nate, do you ever use essential oils in your sauna water? We have a lot of Finns around here, strong sauna game, one of them was using eucalyptus oil in his water. Such a great aroma and really clears out your airways
absolutely yes we use them every session!!... I always put some actual herbs in the boiling water pot like sage or rosemary... then periodically drop oils into the pot during the sauna like peppermint and eucalyptus... but I never put it in the actual water that goes on the rocks
in 10f it requires the wood to be very dry hardwood like hickory or elm or oak... then yes it easily gets to temp but I'll leave the damper wide open so its like a blast furnace!!
Some people spend thousands of dollars to travel and have a zen experience like this...vikings just have it in their back yard. 😄😍👍💯

Hello nate. I have one of those portable saunas. It's not a tent, but i love it
What about all the smoke that escapes from the fireplace into the tent and your BREATHING? How i that experience and your lungs afterwards from smoke inhalation in SMALL ENCLOSED space? Sincerly?
Wow!! Those coals are GLOWING 🤩
As always, looking forward to my next visit! 🔥 🪵 🔥

Great video! How was your experience in 10 degree winter? Did it take longer to heat up?
in 10f it requires the wood to be very dry hardwood like hickory or elm or oak... then yes it easily gets to temp but I'll leave the damper wide open so its like a blast furnace!!
toasty!
👍👍👍
