I was first introduced to cold immersion by Wim Hof a few years ago and now one of my favorite hobbies it to study the work of Dr. Andrew Huberman of Stanford. His research includes documents the myriad of benefits of cold-water immersion:
  • Metabolism, Optimizing Brown Fat Cells
  • Mood (Dopamine regulation), Mindset, Mental Health Recovery
  • Exercise Recovery
  • Pain & Inflammation regulation
  • Focus & Mental Resilience
I am 100% seeking the psychological change.  I am training for psychological resilience on a daily basis with deliberate periods of physiological discomfort. Through repetition we can develop a Habit and build more neurological feedback loops in the direction of taking action in the face of stress, strain and discomfort.  
By utilizing the powerful connection between psychology and physiology we can change our narrative and remove our self-imposed limitations.
