mixing things up a bit, decided to do cold plunge this morning before sunrise. air temp 2.5°c, water 1.8°c, 5 min session. rainy and windy as usual this time of year.

use to do 2 sets of 2-3 min plunge sessions. but I find that the body relaxes, settles down at about 4 mins so able to go an extraminutes. plunges have become a dedication time of meditation and prayer.

My standard was 6 mins in the tub (53F - temp from well), but this week I started cycling (3 mins. full hot shower, 3 mins. cold) x3 ... not sure which I like better but both are excellent for stress relief.
