OK well not just cold showers actually hyperventilation in combination with cold showers change everything!
So for the past 44 days I have been practicing the Wim Hof breathing technique and cold shower therapy. If you don't know who Wim Hof is watch the below documentary VICE did on him or better yet listen to Joe Rogan's Podcast #712 with Wim Hof! Really good information in that one.
Bottom line here is that Wim Hof climbed Mount Everest in nothing but sneakers and shorts! He did this and broke many other records with a simple breathing technique that anyone can do. He has trained others in this breathing exercise and they have completed tasks just as Wim Hof has. From climbing mountains in shorts to controlling their immune system to fight off a toxin injected into their blood stream and fought off all sickness. This is really amazing stuff.
So in the past 44 days I have felt more confident throughout the day, content, my posture has improved and dealing with stressful situations with ease. These are just what I have felt and experienced. There is a lot more going on under the hood that has been studied like increased immune response.
I would recommend watching the documentary or listening to the podcast. The below youtube link is also a great video from a Youtuber "What I've Learned" which goes into what your body does during the breathing technique.
I have been doing daily video on the method and you can check those out on my channel:
