PSA: if you like saunas but don't have easy access to one, those IR sauna bags you can buy online work great.

Some people find it gross to basically sweat inside a powered sleeping bag, but if you don't mind that you can get the same effects of a sauna while lying on your (covered) couch and watching YouTube.

Wow, they look really quite dangerous. I wouldn’t want to pass out in one. Yeah you can pass out in a sauna too, but it feels easier to lurch for the door than to fight with a sleeping bag.
There's a timer shutoff. I know I can sit in mine for the full hour at the highest setting, so it's not anything my body can't handle. You can set it for less time at a lower heat setting, too.
