You'll learn why more heat and longer sessions are not always better, how infrared exposure may influence circulation and cellular energy, and why it can be a valuable addition to the fundamentals of healing. Infrared therapy is not a replacement for movement, hydration, nutrition, sleep or medical care but it can help the body create a better internal environment for recovery. In this episode, Dr. Perry chats with Connie Zack the co-founder of Sunlighten Saunas. We discuss: The differences between far, mid, and near-infrared wavelengths Why hotter and more isn't better.  How infrared therapy may support blood flow, oxygen delivery and nutrient movement The relationship between infrared light, mitochondria and cellular energy Potential benefits for relaxation, sleep and nervous-system regulation How infrared sauna may support exercise recovery and inflammation regulation How beginners can start "low and slow" with shorter sessions How session length should be adjusted based on health, energy and tolerance Why consistency matters more than forcing yourself through an intense session The goal is not to chase another complicated health intervention. It is to understand how a simple practice helps calm the nervous system, move the fluids, support cellular energy and improve the conditions in which healing can occur. ✔️ Discount code to save up to $1500 on your SUNLIGHTEN for Stop Chasing Pain Subscribers Code: 'stopchasingpain'  Website for Sunlighten Sauna

If you've ever dismissed a sauna as a spa luxury, this episode will change your mind. In this episode, Connie Zack, co-founder of Sunlighten, breaks down how infrared light interacts with the body at the cellular level — and why it's genuinely different from just getting hot. Connie covers all four wavelengths, the SoloCarbon blood pressure trials, why deliberately exposing yourself to heat can actually reduce hot flash frequency, how infrared shifts you from sympathetic to parasympathetic in minutes, and the full case for sauna as passive cardio. She also gets into the practical stuff: minimum effective dose, habit stacking, morning vs. evening, hydration, and what to expect in week one versus week 100.

Most of us are doing all the things — and still not feeling vital and energized. This episode might reveal the missing piece…   In this week's episode, I sit down with Connie Zack, co-founder of Sunlighten Saunas, and her story alone is worth pressing play for. It starts with someone she loves, a health crisis that wouldn't budge, and a discovery that quietly changed the direction of her life.   We get into what infrared light actually is — and why it's so much more than just a hot room. We cover how it works at the cellular level, and what that actually means for detox, circulation, and the kind of deep rest most of us aren't getting. We also had a really honest conversation about the nervous system — why you genuinely cannot heal when you're stuck in fight-or-flight, and what it actually takes to come back into regulation.   It's not about adding another step to your wellness routine. It's about understanding what your body needs to do what it is innately designed to do... to heal.   If you feel like you've been running on empty and can't quite figure out why… I think this conversation is going to open something up for you. If you follow me on Instagram, you know how obsessed I am with my infrared sauna. It's my mini oasis where I go to replenish and reflect.

Infrared saunas can be pricey — so it's a great time to remind you that the sun is the most abundant and free source of infrared light. Spending 10–15 minutes outdoors in the morning or late afternoon will also give you a healthy dose of rich spectrum near-infrared rays.

In this episode, we explore how infrared sauna use and infrared light therapy can support hormonal balance and mental health. Unlike traditional saunas, infrared heat penetrates the body more deeply at lower temperatures, helping activate the parasympathetic nervous system and reduce cortisol levels. This stress-lowering effect plays a key role in supporting hormones, including thyroid function, insulin sensitivity, and overall endocrine balance.Infrared light therapy, particularly red and near-infrared wavelengths, works at the cellular level by boosting mitochondrial function and increasing energy production (ATP). This can enhance recovery, reduce inflammation, and support brain health. These cellular benefits may also contribute to improved mood, with research suggesting positive effects on anxiety, depression, and neurotransmitter balance.Both infrared sauna and light therapy can promote endorphin release, improve circulation, and support better sleep—key factors for mental clarity and emotional well-being. When used consistently and alongside healthy lifestyle habits, they can be powerful tools for managing stress, optimizing hormones, and enhancing overall resilience.Connie Zack is the co-founder of Sunlighten, the global leader in infrared sauna and light therapy. Inspired by her brother's health transformation, she and her husband, Aaron, left successful pharmaceutical careers to revolutionize the industry with science-backed innovations. Connie is a pioneer in infrared light technology, driving widespread education on its benefits through collaborative partnerships. A passionate advocate for holistic health, Connie integrates nutrition, exercise, mindfulness, and infrared therapy into her life. As a mother, wife, wellness enthusiast, entrepreneur, she brings light, hope and happiness to the world through her expertise in how infrared light and heat impacts healthy lifespan. Shop Sunlighten Saunas (mention me for a discount!)

Is the sun actually the ultimate anti-aging medicine they've been trying to keep from us? While we've been scared away from sunlight for decades, groundbreaking research reveals that specific light wavelengths might be the key to reversing the hallmarks of aging at a cellular level. But that expensive red light device you bought might be nothing more than a colorful lamp with zero therapeutic benefits. With the explosion of light therapy products flooding the market, how can you tell which actually deliver cellular transformation? Natalie Jill welcomes back Sunlighten founder Connie Zack to cut through the misinformation around the red light therapy trend. You'll discover why most consumer devices completely miss the mark—including why visible red light alone is insufficient and how specific frequencies (660nm for red light and 880nm for near infrared) are essential for therapeutic effects. Connie explains the crucial difference between mere heat therapy and cellular light medicine, revealing how proper infrared creates a "vibrational molecular activation" that makes water molecules dance inside your cells. She dispels the common misconception that hotter is better, proving that temperature is completely irrelevant for results—the benefits start the moment you turn on an effective device. Learn how different light wavelengths affect your body – how far, mid, near infrared, and red light each target different biological systems. The conversation tackles how infrared therapy combats five major hallmarks of aging - addressing everything from zombie cells and inflammation to mitochondrial health and gut function.  Whether you're dealing with hormone-related mood changes, energy dips, or skin concerns, this episode offers practical insights for incorporating light therapy into your wellness routine. Natalie shares her personal experience using infrared therapy to instantly transform her mood, energy, and recovery - calling it the one age-optimization tool she wouldn't live without.   ☀️ Have questions?

Today, I am blessed to have Connie Zack, the Co-Owner of Sunlighten. Sunlighten's story began over 20 years ago when Connie and Aaron Zack watched her brother's life transform with the help of infrared light—a decade of failing to find relief from a debilitating illness had brought him to a dark place in his health battle with chronic fatigue, mercury poisoning, and spinal injury. A dentist recommended infrared light therapy, and it changed his life. He came to life again, able to create his art and do what he loves once again. He founded Sunlight saunas to share what he had found and bring this healing light to others.  Purchase Sunlighten products here: https://get.sunlighten.com/ketokamp use the coupon code KETOKAMP for up to $600 off!

Today, I am blessed to have Connie Zack, the Co-Owner of Sunlighten. Sunlighten's story began over 20 years ago when Connie and Aaron Zack watched her brother's life transform with the help of infrared light—a decade of failing to find relief from a debilitating illness had brought him to a dark place in his health battle with chronic fatigue, mercury poisoning, and spinal injury. A dentist recommended infrared light therapy, and it changed his life. He came to life again, able to create his art and do what he loves once again. He founded Sunlight saunas to share what he had found and bring this healing light to others.  Inspired by his experience, the Zacks harnessed their history as pharmaceutical associates and committed everything they had to grow Sunlighten and mastering infrared light, bringing the most amount of infrared—and most health benefits—into the body so others could live their best lives too. They've poured their lives into helping others by innovating and leading the infrared sauna industry. In this episode, Connie dives into the transformative power of infrared heat therapy, particularly emphasizing its efficacy in weight loss, inflammation reduction, and pain relief. She highlights how infrared therapy, such as Sunlighten's, increases core body temperature by absorbing low resonance energy into cells, leading to caloric burn and significant reductions in waist circumference. Plus, Connie discusses how inflammation, a primary contributor to aging, can be regulated through far infrared therapy, promoting overall well-being without the side effects of medications. We explore the energy-boosting effects of infrared sauna therapy and its positive impact on cognitive function and emotional wellness.

Head to http://www.beamminerals.com and use the coupon code AZADI for a sweet discount!   [00:15] The Power of Infrared Heat Therapy for Weight Loss, Inflammation, and Pain Relief Infrared heat therapy, such as Sunlighten's, can aid in weight loss by increasing the body's core temperature by absorbing low resonance energy into cells. This process causes water molecules to vibrate, elevating the core temperature and converting energy into caloric burn.  Clinical studies have shown significant reductions in waist circumference with infrared therapy, offering a convenient way to burn calories while relaxing at home. Inflammation is identified as a primary contributor to aging, and far infrared therapy has been shown to regulate genes controlling inflammation. Unlike medication, infrared therapy addresses inflammation throughout the body by being absorbed into cells and working with mitochondria, offering a broad-spectrum approach to reducing inflammation without the side effects associated with medications.  Infrared heat therapy can alleviate pain and reduce the need for daily medication, providing relief while promoting overall well-being. [07:30] The Energy Boost of Infrared Sauna Therapy for Weight Loss and Overall Wellness Weight loss through infrared sauna therapy can be seen as a byproduct of upgrading one's overall health and metabolism.  By using infrared saunas regularly, individuals can enhance their metabolic rate and experience increased energy levels, positively impacting their ability to engage in physical activity and maintain a healthier lifestyle. One of the significant benefits of infrared sauna therapy is its boost in energy levels. Many individuals carrying extra weight often struggle with low energy levels, hindering their motivation to exercise or engage in physical activities.  By using infrared saunas, people can experience a surge in energy, making it easier to incorporate movement into their daily routines.  [14:35] The Power of Sauna Therapy for Cognitive Enhancement and Emotional Wellness Infrared sauna therapy consists of different wavelengths, each positively impacting mitochondria. By exposing oneself to multiple wavelengths, such as near-infrared, individuals can optimize the benefits for their mitochondria, enhancing overall brain function and health. Near infrared, being a short wavelength, penetrates the skin deeply and reaches the brain effectively. When absorbed by mitochondria, light energy from near infrared excites these cells, resulting in improved brain function, including heightened cognitive abilities and reduced brain fog. Far infrared therapy, by elevating core body temperature and regulating thermo-regulatory functions, has shown promise in aiding individuals with depression and sleep disorders.  By facilitating the body's natural ability to regulate temperature, far infrared therapy promotes better sleep quality, positively impacting mental health and stability. [26:20] Sunlighten's Patented Infrared Therapy for Maximum Absorption and Therapeutic Benefits Infrared therapy is a complex form of energy that requires precision to deliver effectively. Sunlighten has dedicated years to perfecting its technology, achieving an impressive absorption rate of up to 99%. This high level of infrared absorption ensures that every minute spent in a Sunlighten sauna maximizes the therapeutic benefits for the user. Sunlighten's dedication to excellence is exemplified by its patented technology, which guarantees users the highest quality infrared therapy. The patent provides peace of mind, knowing that Sunlighten saunas deliver unparalleled performance and efficacy compared to other products on the market. While various sources emit infrared energy, not all are equally effective for therapeutic purposes. Sunlighten distinguishes itself by filtering out impurities and delivering infrared energy in its purest form, optimizing absorption rates for maximum benefit to the user. [51:00] Infrared Therapy for Deep Cellular Activation and Holistic Wellness Infrared therapy differs from traditional heat because it penetrates the body deeply rather than merely heating the surrounding air. This allows the heat energy to be absorbed by water molecules and mitochondria within cells, comprising a significant portion of the body's composition.  Infrared therapy activates and works with approximately 60% of the body, leading to a more profound physiological impact. With infrared therapy, particularly in products like the Sunlighten Impulse, users receive a spectrum within a spectrum of energy. This includes far, mid, near, and red wavelengths, each having distinct effects on mitochondria and various bodily systems. The comprehensive spectrum facilitates a biochemical cascade throughout the body, promoting holistic wellness. One of the most significant benefits of infrared therapy is the inclusion of light energy, specifically near-infrared and red light. Unlike traditional heat, infrared therapy provides the body with essential light energy, often lacking in modern lifestyles.  [55:00] Infrared Therapy: Wellness and Productivity Enhancement Infrared therapy has been extensively studied and has shown positive impacts on various aspects of health, including detoxification, heart health, stress reduction, immunity, skin health, and sleep quality. The comprehensive nature of these benefits makes infrared therapy a valuable tool for promoting overall well-being. Unlike traditional saunas, which can be difficult to endure for extended periods due to high temperatures, infrared saunas allow users to enjoy the experience for longer.  Extended enjoyment enables individuals to engage in habit stacking, combining sauna sessions with activities such as breathwork, intention setting, visualization, strategic thinking, or even work planning. Traditional heat and infrared heat activate heat shock proteins, which boost the immune system and strengthen cells. Contrary to common belief, one can maintain high temperatures to activate these proteins. Any form of heat, including hot water or tea, can trigger the production of heat shock proteins.

Hey Heal Squad! On today's episode we have the co-founder of Sunlighten, Connie Zack, with us to discuss all things Infrared Light and the exciting things going on with Sunlighten. Connie walks us through how she got into Infrared Light, the 3 parts of what Infrared is, and the copious amount of benefits that Infrared Light provides. It may sound too good to be true, but after my experience with the Sunlighten saunas on my healing journey as well as this conversation with Connie, I'm a firm believer as to why Infrared Light is something everyone should have.  **For clarifying purposes** Red light and infrared light are different types of light that can have positive effects on our bodies. Red light is the type of light we can see, like the light from a red traffic signal. Infrared light is a type of light that we can't see, but we can feel it as heat. It can go deeper into our bodies than red light. There are three types of infrared light: near-infrared, mid-infrared, and far-infrared. Far-infrared light is used in infrared saunas. Far-infrared light can penetrate our bodies deeply and create heat, which can help us relax and detoxify.  Healers and Heal-liners Infrared is a necessary part of living, and naturally works with your body A few things Infrared can help with include: inflammation, sleep, and weight-loss Sunlighten is on a mission to make Infrared more accessible to all You can do anything you want inside the Infrared Sauna pods The Infrared spectrum has no UV rays which is what makes it different from the effects of the Sun Starting slowly and working your way up is the best when just starting out with Infrared Staying hydrated is important when using Infrared A great rule of thumb is one minute per age when figuring out how to get kids into Infrared saunas Learn more about Connie Zack and Sunlighten: Sunlighten Infrared Spa: https://sunlighten.com/healsquad?utm_source=MariaMenounos&utm_medium=Partner&leadsource=MariaMenounos&utm_campaign=MariaMenounos            Use this link and the code “HEALSQUAD” at checkout for $600 of your Sunlighten unit Questions about Sunlighten?

Connie Zach, co-owner of Sunlighten, a global leader in infrared light therapy and saunas, shared her expertise on the topic in the episode. Connie has dedicated over 20 years to bringing the healing power of infrared to people worldwide. Alongside her husband, she has been an innovator in the field, developing the Smart Sauna, a revolutionary product that allows users to isolate or combine different wavelengths of infrared light for maximum benefits.During the discussion with our host, Dr. Josh Axe, Connie highlighted the tremendous advantages of infrared therapy. Sunlighten's saunas are divided into different wavelengths: FAR, MID, NEAR, and RED, each offering unique benefits. FAR infrared light, for instance, has been proven to enhance mental health by reducing inflammation, improving circulation, and delivering nutrients to various areas of the body. It also aids in the regeneration and restoration of the body by repairing mitochondria. Connie also emphasized the research conducted by Sunlighten, which demonstrates their saunas and infrared products have a remarkable 99% absorption rate, making them highly effective.Other Topics Discussed:07:42 IVs with infrared light.08:00 Infrared light therapy.11:17 Infrared light therapy benefits.18:09 Infrared saunas and their benefits.25:23 Infrared sauna and longevity.28:43 Sauna benefits and detoxification..35:43 Healing digestive issues.44:10 Practical sauna recommendations.48:19 Mental health benefits of saunas.50:12 Saunas and their benefits.Save up to $600 on your Sunlighten Sauna purchase with the code AXE.
