Bliss Mobile Wellness

Six days until Banya Fest. 🔥

This is one of those days I look forward to all year.

It feels a little like being invited to someone’s house—sauna, cold plunge, good food, hot tea, fire, conversation, and absolutely no need to rush through any of it.

Come for the heat. Stay awhile.

📍 Banya House · Prior Lake
📅 Saturday, October 3
⏰ 3–9 PM

And if you’re coming, come find me. I’ll be there with Bliss.

There are sauna events… and then there’s Banya Fest.

This is my favorite sauna day of the year—and one of those Minnesota things I wish more people knew about.

On October 3, Banya House brings Slavic banya tradition to their private property in Prior Lake: steam, cold plunges, venik whisking, massage, Slavic food, tea and fire.

And this year, you can stay overnight.

Camp. Sauna. Eat. Sit by the fire. Sleep under the stars. Wake up and have breakfast here. No rushing home.

It feels less like a wellness event and more like stumbling into a little piece of Eastern Europe in Minnesota.

If you love sauna, cold plunge, nature, good food and experiences that feel genuinely different—this one is for you.

Just toured All’s Well sauna + waterspa … 🤍

Highlights:
• Gorgeous tile, textures, and color palette.
• Light everywhere.
• Plants that make it feel like an indoor forest.
• Smart details (numbered towels—why doesn’t everyone do this?).
• Beautiful lockers for your things.
• Sauna circuits built for slowing down, not rushing.
• A space that makes you want to linger.

Bringing the feeling of forest bathing indoors, year-round, in Minnesota?

Sign. Me. Up.

Huge congratulations to everyone behind this beautiful project. (Including Mike)! I’m excited about the possibility of future programming together and can’t wait to spend more time here.

This is where Bliss comes from.

Lately I’ve been craving more casual ways for people to gather.

Summer evenings.
Sauna.
Cold plunge.
Music on.
Flowers everywhere.
Good conversations that happen when nobody is rushing.

Thinking about opening up a few Thursday nights at my place this summer for a small “Summer Steam Club.” 📸 photos by
