I’ve been polar plunging for 5 years now. Why? Why endure something painful? Because the after feeling is immaculate.
#1. I find it so much easier to choose the harder but better choices. I eat healthier, I choose to go on that walk rather than sit on my phone, etc.
#2. I feel more present, not controlled by my emotions. Being present is directly linked to happiness and I feel that deeply.
#3. Helps increase brown fat which boosts your metabolism.
#4. My brain feels much clearer the rest of the day.
#5. Reminds me I’m strong, powerful, and able to handle tough situations and CHOOSE into them. Even run straight in to them. Also peep my little neice who decided to join me. So fun! Teach em while they’re young, it’s easier to install healthy habits from a young age rather than trying to learn and install them when you’re older!
