This read hit me at a different level after coming home from SoulCycle today. If you're looking for another health-focused cult I would check out infrared sauna experiences in Houston, they are typically a bunch of regulars obsessed with "bio-hacking". It's my new guilty pleasure.

Oh my gosh I loved learning this about you Hesam! I laughed out loud at the “never chosen to blow out the candle”. I love SoulCycle and fully understood in your essay how you came to enjoy it as well. Particularly once you find an instructor that really resonates. I enjoy indoor cycling in general, but nothing beats the experience at SoulCycle. Taylor Swift is always a good choice for music. I once did a Punk Rock ride and it’s stayed as one of my favorites!
