Join us for a one-off guided sauna ritual in Mothecombe at Somewhere Sauna, led by sauna host, owner and Sauna Master Sarah Wossidlo. This special 2-hour sauna ceremony is a deeply immersive, sensory experience inspired by traditional European sauna culture and designed to restore body, mind and nervous system.
Sarah grew up immersed in European sauna traditions, where sauna is not just about heat, but about community, ritual and connection. Drawing on this rich heritage, her sauna rituals guide guests through multiple rounds of heat and cold, encouraging relaxation, release and deep presence.
The experience begins with a gentle meditation and simple breathing techniques to calm the nervous system and help you settle into the warmth of the wood-fired sauna. Through carefully chosen sounds, scents and therapeutic oils, Sarah creates a safe and grounding atmosphere, allowing you to fully arrive in your body.
As the ritual unfolds, nature is gradually brought into the sauna using traditional leaf whisks. These are used to direct steam, stimulate circulation, release muscle tension and support mental clarity. Whisking involves gentle tapping and brushing of the skin, enriching it with the natural oils and vitamins released from the leaves.
Guests will then enjoy homemade salt scrubs to exfoliate and refresh the skin, followed by a nourishing seaweed mask, rich in minerals to support skin health and vitality. Between sauna rounds, you’ll experience the powerful contrast of hot and cold, supporting circulation, resilience and deep relaxation.
To cool down gently, fresh juicy fruits are shared in the sauna, with herbal tea served outside, helping you rehydrate, integrate and feel truly wonderful.
This invigorating and rejuvenating sauna ritual in Mothecombe is an invitation to slow down, reconnect with your body and immerse yourself in the healing benefits of sauna, nature and ritual; all set in the beautiful surroundings of the Flete Estate with views of Mothecombe Beach.
