In many cultures sauna, sweat lodge, or banya (bathhouse) is associated with the place of Power where the cleanse happens: not just for the body but also for the soul and spirit. Often, people go to the bathhouse not only to wash, but also to cleanse themselves of ailments and the evil eye.
To get the full benefits of sauna cleanse, few things can be considered in selecting a right sauna:
Firstly, the location. The sauna is a place that is neither one's own (like a house where one lives) nor someone else's (like a forest or the spirit world). Traditionally, the bathhouse was usually located on the border of the forest or even by the river - on the border between land and water. This placement defined the sauna as a place of transition, a place where the door to the subtle world of spirits is always ajar: which means that the energies here may not be from our world at all.
Secondly, all the fundamental elements of the natural world are combined and manifested very vividly in the sauna: fire, water, earth, air. Reason for the presence of fire is clear, the same goes for water and air - but in the old times when the floors were bare and earthen, the earth used to be more accessible; closer. Nowadays, the element of earth is personified by the stones on the stove, or by the bricks from which a stove is made. The element of earth is also represented by wood - the cedar siding of the room itself, the firewood in the stove; benches, brooms.
As such, a person is never a full-fledged owner of the sauna, but rather someone sharing this space with the elements of nature and energies from another world. This gives a visit to the sauna a special meaning, an experience interwoven with rituals and beliefs, fairy tales and legends.
