It's official. They just topped the World Happiness Report for the 8th year in a row.
Here's the Finnish Happiness Secret (that reduces all-cause mortality by 40%):
Finland has 5.5 million people and around 3.2 million saunas.
That’s nearly one sauna for every two people.
The average Finn saunas 1–3x a week at temps between 160–200°F (70–90°C).
This isn't just cultural tradition—it's their medicine.
I'll be honest: I used to be skeptical about saunas.
Turns out, so did longevity expert Dr. Peter Attia.
In this clip from his conversation with @tferriss he shares a Finnish study that tracked 2,000+ men for over 20 years—and found regular sauna use was linked to a 40% drop in all-cause mortality.
