Cold shower? 🚿What?! 🥶 It's actually not as bad as it sounds I promise:) . Cold thermogenesis is a type of cold therapy that actually creates heat inside the body. To quote Dave Asprey from his book, Head Strong: . "It stimulates the release of proteins that burn glycogen from your muscles. This signals your body to increase production of testosterone and growth hormone which leads to a cascade of positive effects" . The ancient Romans, Norseman & others have intuitively been enjoying cold therapy for ages. They understood that regularly exposing the body to certain kinds of natural stresses like cold water could enhance health. . The good news is that it takes only 3 days to accustomise to the cold. Take your regular morning shower, then turn it on cold the last 30 seconds. After a few days you won't hate me anymore and will be basking under the icy flow for a minute at least which is plenty. . Pro tip: the summer is the best time to get used to this ☀️ . Who's up for a cold shower 7 day challenge?! 💪 The frigid confines of your shower box may be just exactly what you need 🤓 . #@bart_breakfreewellness #breakfree #coldtherapy #coldthermogenesis #immunesupport #guthealth #diseaseprevention #holistichealing #biohacking #coldshower #naturaltresses #ownyourhealth #healing #mitochondrialhealth #healthcoach #healthcoaching #functionalmedicine #alternativehealth #brainhealth #brainhealthy #brainfog #resilience https://www.instagram.com/p/CBWWKC0J4TN/?igshid=1fsz40522pp1y
