    Greetings, Gabrielle!
    Your fan and a newbie is here, glad you have such a friendly community. I found answers to my questions here, though there’s still something that troubles me.

    Long story short. As I’m practicing at home and there’s not a single hot yoga studio near me, I’m doing my research to make an improvised studio of my own. That’s why I’m remodeling my basement. Room is 14×10 in total.
    But we have very dry winters here, so I think that with temp over 95 degrees it would be impossible to breath in a basement. That’s why I’d like to ask, which humidifier do you use? I was thinking about getting one of those which are recommended to use for dry air (so I just googled some, like these and that).
    Though since there are hundreds of such reviews, I decided to ask you whether you have any suggestions/preferences? Or as it was said, any humidifier from Costco or Home depot would be just fine?
    Or maybe I should look at sauna kits (as I was recommended by our constructor)? Well, I suppose it might be an overkill, though I need to keep humidity at 40% and the room is as big as our bedroom, so…

    I’ve already checked some existing topics (like this one), but unfortunately there’s not so much info around. So I hope you might help me with this one.

    Namaste!

    Hello Chaya

    I am not at all familiar with sauna kits. Maybe you can tell me/us a little about what they include. I don’t want to discount that without knowing a little more. Without knowing more about them (including investment etc) I would probably go the inexpensive option first. I would look at well-priced large capacity humidifiers… Go up-spec on recommendations for your size room. Insulate really well and see how you fare. It’s hard to be more specific because models change all the time and yoga machinery is less my expertise than the yoga itself! 😀 😀 😀 Haha. If sauna kits are, say, hundreds of dollars compared with a $70 humidifier, then that may be a consideration.

    Namaste
    Gabrielle 🙂
