RE: Day 2 | River Thames Cold Therapy | Raising Awareness for Mental Health + Steem

in #dtube6 years ago

Good going.... your neighbor is right. Crazy is the word 🤪😉

But crazy people are the most interesting and creative.

I tried the cold water therapy this morning (cold shower like something from a 1960's borstal), right after doing the breathing and it has made a difference in how I feel today.

I wouldn't say I'm a complete Wim Hof convert just yet, but I'm gonna keep trying it and see where it goes 🙂

Hahah yes I've come to embrace my crazy! It's taken some life lessons and fine tuning to make sure I channel it for good though ;)

I love that you were willing to try it out and amazing that it made a difference to how you felt today! Just wow!

Sooo do you have a cold river near you? Sounds like you'll be up for joining me in this stunt soon enough Haha :D

It's good to embrace the crazy. I spent years battling against myself before I realized that's not the way to go. As you said, it's all about channeling it in a positive way.

For me, it all goes into my creative writing... and particularly horror short stories. Sometimes I worry about my own mind when I edit them 🤣

Sooo do you have a cold river near you?

Ha ha, yes the river Mersey... but I'm a little concerned about the possibility of picking up a rare disease jumping in every day. I have scuba dived a wreck in the Mersey bay b4 so I know it's reasonably clean these days. Maybe in a few months time if my health improves.

P.s. I'm guessing you're near to the source of the Thames? I used to holiday at a place called 'ShipLake' as a kid which was near to the source of the Thames. I have hazy memories of learning to row a boat at ShipLake and swimming in the river in the summer 🙂

Lol, I've gone epic with the comment again 😆
