I’ve started taking cold showers 🚿

Jul 05, 2022

I love heat. I hate cold. I love pleasure.

I’m doing it because someone said it would be good for me.
How can you sell a comfort-loving, pleasure-seeking woman of the world cold showers?

With the power of credibility.

I watched “my teacher the octopus” and the narrator is swimming in 9 degrees water: relaxed, calm, enjoying the natural wonders. I’m in awe. I could never!
He’s swimming in water as cold as my fridge. That’s unimaginable to me.

He says “something about the cold water brings your brain to life”, first it stings, then you have a window of 10-15mins where your body is open and you can move.

Now I’m going to believe what he’s telling me about the benefits of cold water because he would know! I heard “brings your brain to life”. I’m looking to live my potential and have clarity and focus in my day. I heard I can hack my potential with cold water. I heard that the body resists it initially and then eases into it.

As I woke up the next day feeling groggy and moany, knowing I had a day with the kids ahead, single parenting- I got into the shower and checked out what the cold could do to get me out of my low-grade misery. I’ve never had a cold shower for long, I might have mentioned I don’t like the cold-I usually go just for the shock after a sauna. I did a few seconds and my skin hurt, I did it again. I was certainly awake after. And my state had changed. My energy levels were up. I felt great. Forget coffee.

I did it again the next day, this time with no warm shower before. It feels amazing to be warm coming out of the shower. I’m hooked.

I’m fascinated how quickly I was able to implement this idea that is so deeply uncomfortable to my normal ways. It comes down to the fact that I respect the guy in the film so much because he did what he was talking about and I saw it. I saw it because it was filmed.

When you have a skill or knowledge and show it on video you become influential.
That’s the power we have using the camera.

What is an area of expertise you can demonstrate on video and talk about?
You won’t need to do underwater filming btw. Storytelling on video works too..
