All right, fine, make fun of me in the comments, but cold plunges and cold showers have drastically changed my life. I've been doing cold showers for the last 2 years and cold plunges for about the past 6 months every single day. And I know there's all the science and the chromosomes, the math, whatever crap. For me, it just freaking wakes me up like crazy and I am so stoked when I come out of that thing, like I'm gonna take over the entire world. So if you haven't tried it, I'm gonna go challenge you guys. Go jump in a cold shower or a cold bath or something and tell me when you get out you're not more depressed or anxious than you were before. And I'd say, Especially if you have like anxiety or depression. I personally, I think it's almost impossible to be depressed when you're in a freezing bath, 'cause you're like fighting for your life. I'm putting you to the challenge, but go try it out if you haven't. It's absolutely changed my life.
