The Longevity Edit

I’ve been reading about cold exposure benefits for years—better metabolism, dopamine spikes, improved resilience—but today was the first time I actually tried it.

Science-Backed Benefits of Cold Showers
📌 Doubles dopamine for hours (Huberman Lab study)
📌 Increases metabolism (Wim Hof research)
📌 Reduces inflammation & boosts mood

Day 1 Cold Shower Breakdown
✅ Before: Feeling sluggish, not motivated
🚿 During: Full-body shock, instant regret
😳 After: Weirdly awake, like I had 3 cups of coffee

Day 1 Takeaway: Worth the Pain?
🔥 I expected misery. What I got was a huge energy boost that lasted hours.

📌 Tomorrow’s goal: Try breathing exercises before to see if it reduces the shock.
