Home & life updates + cold plunging in the bathtub 🧊

FOR THE INFRARED SAUNA: email [e-mail] or [e-mail] and mention my name and they will give you a discount on an at-home sauna (I think $500 off!).
Welcome to a day in my life vlog in the suburbs!
While I’ll probably do a separate video showing you guys a final look at the house (showing the full house remodel-all of the home renovations and how we styled the spaces), I thought I’d use this vlog to give you a few life updates, take you along as we implement new wellness routines around here, and share some before-and-afters around the house (WE’RE OBSESSED!).
CHAPTERS:
00:00-03:38 - cold plunge
03:39-07:34 - wellness chat/update
07:35-10:06 - cold plunge
10:07-11:26 - investing in an ice pod & sauna
11:27-14:13 - our sauna
14:14-15:35 - before & after house updates
First, a quick update on this past weekend: I went on a weekend trip with my sister- it was kind of like a replacement bachelorette party for her + a little sissy getaway-and within 10 hours of getting to the hotel property, I slipped down a flight of stairs. The full story is in the vlog but, basically, no one wanted to touch me because they didn't know if I hit my spine, so they called an ambulance, and I wound up in the hospital getting an x-ray….and our trip was cut short. :(
Thankfully, no bones were broken but I am definitely very sore. The doctors told me to ice the area, which is great because Michael and I have been getting into cold plunging/ice and cold therapy and this was the perfect push to keep going.
Over the summer, I did cold plunging paired with sauna usage. There are physical health benefits, of course, but there are also mental health benefits, and I could benefit from both of those right now. I chat more about it in the video, but I'm trying to work on using these therapies to improve my overall wellness.
We did decide to invest in a cold plunge pod (coming soon!), but in this video, we experimented with filling our bathtub with store-bought bags of ice and cold water and using it for a little DIY cryotherapy. I filmed the whole thing so you can experience the cold plunge in real time with me. If you’ve been looking into the benefits of cold therapy and want to try it out for yourself, this will give you a glimpse into what it’s like! Make sure you have someone watching you, though...and check with your doctor first!
Perhaps the best part of this update is that we also invested in a small infrared sauna! It's basically this little square box that goes inside our house-it even plugs into a regular outlet. It was their smallest model and the least expensive one we could find, and we are so impressed with the quality. Watch the video for a peek inside our at-home infrared sauna!

At the end of this vlog, I walk you through a few home remodel updates-a quick look at our new basement bathroom, our dining area, and a peek into our kitchen remodel! I can’t wait to share more befores and afters with you guys.
