sweat, stillness, and being human #

I’m Dima Garkush — a steam ritualist, researcher, and host of communal sauna experiences.

After years of exploring traditional and experimental approaches to heat, I’ve come to treat the sauna as more than a wellness tool. It’s a medium for sensing, reordering, and returning.

I trained with the International Bath Academy and the Steamology Institute, and now I run guided sessions in the Czech Republic and beyond.

I also write about sauna as a cultural, somatic, and creative practice - and study its therapeutic potential for modern, overloaded minds.
