It's cold as shit in my pool, but it feels enlivening to push through the cold and shift the feelings of discomfort into strength and power. Cold-water adaptation is actually used to help treat anxiety and depression. The theory is around our stress response and inflammation. Immersing yourself in cold water puts your body into fight or flight mode. Starting with the cold-water shock response, dipping into cold water puts your body under stress. As you repeat this experience, you diminish this stress response. And having a better rein on your stress response means being able to better cope with life’s many minor irritations that add up to chronic stress. Very cool stuff, right?! So now that you know, will you join me? :)
