I was introduced to cold immersion by Wim Hof a few years ago. Now I study the work of Andrew Huberman of Stanford University, Stanford University School of Medicine . His research documents a myriad of benefits:
- Metabolism, Optimizing Brown Fat
- Dopamine regulation, Mental Health
- Exercise Recovery
- Pain & Inflammation regulation
- Focus & Mental Resilience
Iโm 100% seeking the psychological change. ย 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 connection between #psychology and #physiology we can change our narrative and remove our self-imposed limitations.
Multiple mornings have gone by where I say โugh โฆI donโt want to do thisโ. I even begin developing justifications and excuses โฆโ This is Excessiveโ, โWho do I think I am?โ,โ Iโve done it long enoughโ. I almost quit. As soon as I hear that voice and get that feeling in my Vagus NerveโฆI take IMMEDIATE Action in the opposite direction. I do it any wayโฆ I step and WIN that small mental battle.
This is me keeping a promise to myself. My #SELF heard me commit to cold showers and each time I live up to that promise, I solidify the belief that I am a person who does what they say they will do. ย ๐๐ฌ ๐๐จ๐ง ๐๐ข๐ ๐ฎ๐๐ฅ ๐๐ฎ๐ข๐ณ ๐ฉ๐ฎ๐ญ๐ฌ ๐ข๐ญ ๐ข๐ง ๐๐ ๐ซ๐๐๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ ๐ โ ๐๐ ๐๐ฆ๐ฉ๐๐๐๐๐๐ฅ๐ ๐ฐ๐ข๐ญ๐ก ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐๐จ๐ซ๐.
At some point throughout the day and life there will come times that I have to endure discomfort and each day I prove to my SELF that I am capable.
The water is also never as cold as I think it will be the second before step in. The narrative in my mind is worse than reality. The #meditation I use while in the cold helps me focus on:
Where else in my life is my narrative worse than reality?
Where am I suffering my imagination in advance?
Where do I procrastinate? ย โฆmaybe the water isnโt that cold.
