Cooking with a friend

I've been inviting my friends to try the magic of the infra-red since installing the sauna in November. My best pal Jo popped in after work to heat up and chill out with me on Tuesday. The calories in the Marks & Spencers carrot cake Jo brought with her were soon burned off, which is just as well as we were both over-indulgent over the festive season. I have developed a theory therefore that naughty foods consumed just before a sauna do not count, and they might in fact aid toxin release, as my skin was pouring on this occasion. I'd also been suffering from a tension headache and that was eased.

Jo and I tried all the different colours of light, listened to some tranquil music and breathed in the Harmony blend of aromatherapy oils. We also discussed the cons (couldn't find any pros) of managing people and how it's so difficult to really be part of a team when the friendships you form with members of your team must remain at a superficial level in order to be professional in managing them. We both miss being on the same level as the rest of the team. By the end of her first session, Jo was ready to purchase her own sauna, she enjoyed the experience that much!
