I take a cold shower every morning. In truth, I take a regular hot shower for seven to ten minutes. Then I turn the shower as cold as possible for two minutes. I do this every single day. Sometimes, when I’m having a bad day, I take two cold showers.
For me when I do the cold shower thing I always feel like it improves my mindset - "if I can get past 2 min of freezing cold water, then the rest of the day will seem awesome in comparison".
Also this was my reminder to keep fighting because I have felt like I started coasting again.
This article should come with a warning not to YouTube Wim Hof videos 😂
In all seriousness two questions.
1. Though it sucks everyday. Curious if the effects are sustained. Meaning, if the night before you decided, as a random example, to drink old fashions to the fail point, I imagine the following morning the shock of the cold has a stronger effect than the day to day. But on regular days do you really feel the effects as sustained?

2. Do you do the breathing also?
