Then cold showers are a simple 'hack' you can use. A cold shower is a great way to improve your health and fitness while strengthening your mind and sharpening your discipline.<\/p>\n
Here are some of the reasons why a cold shower is a fantastic idea for so many people...<\/p>\n
The benefits of cold showers<\/strong><\/p>\n Vigilance<\/em><\/p>\n Many of us wake up feeling sluggish, tired and down. This is not how a \"warrior\" should start their day, and it is not conducive to productivity or a good day.<\/p>\n This is one of the reasons why a cold shower can be so beneficial. A cold shower releases adrenaline and noradrenaline, which speeds up the heartbeat and increases blood flow to the brain.<\/p>\n This can wake you up immediately and boost your energy levels so that you can start the day productively.<\/p>\n Discipline<\/em><\/p>\n The discipline to do things you don't feel like doing is the key to the warrior mentality. It's about motivating yourself to work when you actually want to relax. It's about resisting the urge to eat snacks from the kitchen and go to the gym when you'd rather sleep a little longer and set the alarm.<\/p>\n It takes a lot of discipline to jump into ice-cold water. It takes a lot more self-control to stay underwater.<\/p>\n Think about it: if you can stand under an ice-cold shower, imagine how much easier it will be to motivate yourself to get things done this evening. Or to tidy up the house first thing in the morning?<\/p>\n Another benefit of cold showers is that they put you in a positive mood. Did you know that Hugh Jackman used cold baths to get into the wild mindset of Wolverine when he first played the role in X-Men?<\/p>\n
