Cold showers – love ’em or hate ’em, they’re having a moment. And for good reason. There’s some science behind why they’re so good for you. Cold showers offer profound benefits from boosting your mood and energy levels and improving circulation.
But let’s face it, hopping into a freezing shower isn’t easy. You can ease into it by starting with your legs and feet and gradually working your way up. You can also try doing shorter cold blasts at the end of your regular shower – even just 5 seconds can make a difference.
Consistency is key here. Make cold showers a regular part of your routine, even if it’s just a few times a week, and you might find a new go-to energizer.
Now it’s your turn: Challenge yourself. Try ending your next shower with 10 seconds of cold water. See how it feels, and don’t be afraid to increase the time gradually. Your body (and mind) will thank you.
