    I feel good now that I've started taking cold showers. My energy level has dramatically increased and I'm tired during the day anymore.

    Anyone else?

    All joking aside, my Grandfather used this to completely quit smoking in 7 days. When he felt the urge to smoke, he jumped into a cold shower.

    I take cold showers and don't use (regular) soap/shampoo.

    It is very healthy for your skin and hair.

    If you take a cold shower and immediately watch the last 40sec you will start to feel warm as hell, parts of your body will get insanely hot.

    Tried this just now - couldn't get myself into the shower. I just knew it would be too uncomfortable. I hate that cold shock feeling and losing breath because of it.

    Try holding your breath then let the cold water hit your back first then exhale.

    I just tried it as well. The toughest part was actually getting into the water. That cold shock feeling was rough, but once I got past that part, it was great.

    Once I got out of the shower, I had a completely different feeling than I do when I take a warm shower. Can't really say if it was a better or worse feeling... just different.

    When I was a kid and went to El Salvador for vacation in the early 90's I had no choice but to take cold showers in an outhouse using rain water. Thought it sucked then and still do now.

    What I do is shower with warm water to soap up and then full blast with cold water to rinse off.
