Chapter 1: What is the significance of light exposure for health?

0.031 - 19.151 Brian Richards

So when we use our fire light bulb in our sauna, you get the warmth that you want to get from the sauna. It's hot enough that you also get this light emission that you can't quite see with your eyes, but your body sees and it feels. And that's where we get what we call red light therapy. When I looked into sauna, I was like, the research is amazing, you know, and all that.

Yeah. The, the, it really started with my own health issues. And even before that, like it starts with my parents, actually my mom who was very natural minded, even though she's a physician and like she was prescribing supplements and vitamins in the eighties in Montana. And my dad is a now retired radiologist. So I grew up with both of those perspectives.

100.678 - 112.945 Brian Richards

And when I was at the end of my college career and I had some insomnia and acne and some other things related to adrenal fatigue, I decided to call my mom. I figured like...

You probably just need a detox. So you need to get a sauna to detox. So I was intrigued by that concept. And when I looked into sauna, I was like, the research is amazing and all that. But there was this really interesting story about the electric light bath. And that's what really got my eyes lit up. Literally this... this sauna that was powered with incandescent bulbs.

143.664 - 167.792 Brian Richards

So there's a whole story behind that. It dates back like 130 years or more. And anyway, I found this concept out and I was like, I want to use that type of sauna and I built my own. And I used it right before bed and I slept really well. So that was kind of like the aha moment for me. I was like, wow, this is amazing.

Chapter 8: What practices can enhance the benefits of light therapy?

168.173 - 190.104 Brian Richards

And I ended up using it for like six months and all my acne, all my energy issues. I kind of had some brain fog too. And that cleared up too. But even with my healing experience, I was still doing rental real estate at the time. So I wasn't like involved in health and wellness. I didn't really like business per se. I thought I was not going to be a business person.

190.184 - 197.095 Brian Richards

I guess I looked down at it out of ignorance, you know, that it's like too focused on money.

197.296 - 199.8 Dr. Tyna Moore

The man. You don't want to be turning into the man. Yeah, all that kind of stuff.

215.896 - 238.605 Brian Richards

A few months into it, I had this amazing new sort of like early adopter customer, this woman who had an onset of autoimmune disorders and lost her job and couldn't go out of her house and her life was like totally wrecked. And she said, Brian, after using your sauna for three or four months, I have my job back.

239.366 - 239.447 Unknown

Wow.

239.467 - 245.194 Brian Richards

I have my life back. Wow. And like all my symptoms of my fibromyalgia and other type symptoms

245.343 - 274.219 Brian Richards

uh went away and this like she was crying and she made me tear up too this made me cry and I was like whoa like what am I doing with these hammer and nail and stuff and drywall at this house like there's an opportunity here to empower people to be well to heal to help them understand that you know we can heal anything within so that was the start um was I kind of dropped my tools and got a business loan and started sauna space like officially

274.233 - 282.045 Dr. Tyna Moore

Amazing. So tell me about the bulbs. Originally, were they always the red incandescent bulbs, or did you start out with just regular incandescent bulbs?
