Whats a banya?

In materials form it’s a steam bath. But in my experience is much more than that it’s a way of being a way of finding peace in your natural surroundings.


Every culture treats communal cleansing a bit differently.  Some like it really hot some want aroma in their steam others wanna jump in a very cold pool right after the sauna.  Some may assign spiritual alignment - a soulful lifting - or cleansing of your worldly concerns.


I must have a banya!  A place to be with nature and reflect on the chaos out there.  In not sure how I get there, but I promise to help you on your own banya ques, whatever your banya may be!
