Mia Ben-Ami – Banya Master & Mantra Singer
In the sauna, Mia Ben-Ami invites you into the gentle and sensory universe of the banya culture, where heat, water, and wild herbs blend together into a ceremonial, holistic experience.
Mia is a banya master with roots in the Slavic bathing tradition and brings her own unique Nordic approach—rooted in nature and gently anchored in the body.
Her gus sessions focus on mindfulness, breathing, and opening the senses.
Mia works intuitively and gently with heat and steam—and with natural infusions created from her own foraging trips with wild herbs, flowers, and roots gathered from the surrounding nature.
There are no set programs here—just a warm invitation to let go, open your senses, and let yourself be carried away by the scents, the steam, the fan, and the rhythm of the soft strokes of the brushes.
