Started feeling extremely depressed and had enough. Remembered this and thought "might as well give it a try, can't feel worse than how I feel already". Stepped out of the shower that day feeling like I could take on the world.

The effect really is amazing. There is actually a lot of ppl who smirk on you when you tell them about the power of the cold shower and all the positive effects it has. Kind of sad - for them. Anyone else experiencing a glowing ball in the center of your focus after stepping out of the shower? For like 1 min or so. Kinda weird

I take a warm shower every morning. And then I shock my body for another three minutes with cold water. It gets painful in the winter. It motivates me to do my daily morning exercises.

Breathwork and cold showers are part of my everyday life now. It has completely changed my mood and mindset. Thank you mr Wim Hof❤

Warm up first, too! I always find that either hot water or some light exercise to warm me up makes the cold more appealing. Huberman says that you only need to make yourself uncomfortably cold for 11 minutes a week to increase your dopamine baseline.

I’ve been doing this for 18 months no colds no viruses.. it works!! 💪💪

Did this today. My mood was poor and was feeling tired. I took the cold shower and my mood and energy improved immediately, I then went out and walked 2 miles !

Ok folks. I have been having cold showers for nearly two weeks now. Around 5/6 times a week. Initial 3 showers was quite difficult. But now I have become used to it and I don't feel the cold anymore. It's as if I don't feel cold, as if it's warm water. Now, is that abnormal ? Am I not supposed to feel the cold to get the full benefit ? Is that not the whole point of it i.e. to feel the cold ? Can anyone explain. Thanks

For whatever it's worth. What helped me adjust to the cold water was to spin in the shower so no part of your body is getting pelted with the cold continuously. After I spin about 10 times with each spin taking 2-3 seconds I'm able to stop spinning and let the cold water focus on different parts of my body.

I found this video this morning, and was listening to it during my shower,,,then Wim gets in the cold shower, so I quickly turned mine on and used him as my guide,,,so proud of myself I lasted the whole time plus a little more 💪🏼,,, this helped me not chicken out and keep focused! I will use this as a tool to stay in the cold shower. First time a cold shower , I lasted 10 seconds and cramped up. Now it’s a totally different experience.

I tried the cold shower but could only handle about 5 seconds before abruptly cutting the water off, swearing and gasping for air. In my next shower I managed 10 seconds. The next shower, low and behold, I did 30 seconds. The next day I did a full minute, then a minute ten seconds the next day. Each time when I am done, it feels like my brain was just rebooted. I always start laughing when toweling off because I feel giddy, energized, and amazing! Now my goal is to reach 2 minutes and do it every day.

I tried this for the first time this morning. We have a well and cold ground water. It was very shocking at first, but I persisted and within a minute it stopped being shocking and slowly stopped being cold. 18 months ago I had a moderate stroke, with no permanent damage. Since then though I have had pain in fingers and toes. This seems to help! I can do anything for 30 days and will build to 10 minute cold showers and see what happens! Any others with similar experience please reply/ share!

Also if you stand long enough you become climatized to the cold and it feels better than the warm and you can feel tingles in your body like you are being switched on make sure if you do this be careful to go by the way Wim instructs you.
