Notes: We are too comfortable and not exercising our positive stress response. Cold water therapy improves lymphatic circulation, stimulates blood flow and improves cardiovascular circulation, balances endocrine system, reduces muscle inflammation. It really activates the body’s natural healing mechanisms. 

It really helps us penetrate fear and train ourselves to have delayed gratification. After a hot shower I am cold, after a cold shower I am warm. 

Cold therapy is not a new invention; it is among man’s earliest medical treatments. The Edwin Smith Papyrus (3500 BC), the most ancient medical text, repeatedly mentioned cold therapy

It also: 
Stimulates activity of BAT (brown adipose tissue) or Brown Fat. 
Fights inflammation 
Increases lifespan (as per studies done on fish, flies, and mice) 
Enhances detox pathways
Strengthens Immune System 

Increased longevity via cold-exposure could be due to hormesis. Hormesis refers to the paradoxical adaptation that makes animals stronger and more efficient if they are exposed to environmental stresses. Think about it, a freezer extends the life of foods! 

Cold temperatures act like a mild workout for the nervous system, which adapts and strengthens it.

Wim Hof (“the ice man”) has been instrumental in showing the world that, through specific training techniques using cold exposure and breathwork, a person is able to control their autonomic nervous system. Before this research was done on Wim, the autonomic nervous system was largely thought to be beyond conscious control.
