I took a cold shower once and it does help your memory. It was years ago and I can still remember how cold it was. 😂
🤣🤣🤣
hahahaha Curtis, that was very funny :)
I used to have to jump in a cold pool at 7 AM and do laps. I was in shock the rest of the day from the hypothermia (my metabolism wasn’t up for it yet at 7 AM.). Never again! 🥶
hahaha

I have been having cold showers for months. A big benefit is that it builds your willpower. It has really helped my motivation.
What time you take a cold shower?..
@@vokzz8179 usually in the morning, but I generally have a coffee first to wake up the system a little bit. I know some people have one first thing in the morning but that's pretty hard core. On days that I'm going to do exercise I just have one after that. On occasions that i don't feel up to it I incentivise myself by promising myself a hot shower in the evening as a treat.
Danny, I was hoping your motivation would have stopped at that horrible comment you left the world to read.
Bruh this is easy; I could do it for an hour and I just started.
@@dannyhendy ur "motivation" comes from the caffeine u ingested not the cold water
I started taking cold daily shower a week ago. It benefited me in the following ways:
1. WillPower - Forcing yourself something you don’t want to do increases your mental strength
2. Energizes you - I’m always surprised how I feel really tired, but then I have all the energy I need right after cold shower
3. Save time - I typically spend less than 2-4 minutes in shower
4. Save energy - no need to run bathroom fan because there is no steam
5. Bathroom mirror won’t fog
Number 5 might be best the best reason to do it lol.
@@MDAM12716 ahahahahahahaaah yess
5th one is most imp 😂
and i think hot showers cost more and gen z needs the will power part like most of us gen z is down bad in every way shape or form
6. It also prevents dry and itchy skin from hot showers
7. Upgrades your cold resistance skill
I am almost 50 pounds down with Cold Showers, Intermittent Fasting, and No Sugar! Thank you Dr. Berg :)
Remember man, thank yourself for it too, not just like you owe it all to the people saying things.
calorie deficit is the only thing helping you
@@michealjaymurphy exactly lol
@@no3ironman11100 Thank you for your kindness!
@@no3ironman11100 You probably planned for him to comment that
Took my first cold shower ever and let me tell you, it was not easy! But after the shower you will feel so calm and happy. I will definitely continue this.
Does cold water means the same normal room temperature water or cooler than it
@@lokimani4658 just the cold water on nothing of the hot sir
I believe at first body is in shock and fear of dying however you can simply tell it(because you know it's true) that it is safe and what is happening is not going to harm it. It is also a great mental exercise of will to endure.
@@harisdiz.5817 that's just water hitting your face and your brain thinking you're drowning.
I'm always happy to not be suffering from hypothermia anymore
I have been taking cold showers everyday for the past 2 weeks and I can tell you my experiences. The first 10 seconds kinda takes your breath away and then you get really used to it and it feels amazing! It makes your hair smooth and your body smooth and the rest of the day you feel really energetic and wanna do things! I would definitely recommend!!!
Really?
@@lastyear2239 yeah! You should try it!
@@Hailey90617 it will not affect your hair's health right?
@@lastyear2239 I don't think so. Hot water usually dries the hair while cold water makes shining hair and it helps with hair growth. Cold water is said to be way better for your hair then hot water. So far it has made my hair more smooth and less frizzy.
@@Hailey90617 my hair is thin... That's why I asked
Thanks for your reply 👍
I have been taking cold showers every evening since March 14th. The first two times, my immune system was triggered, and I had that feeling you get before catching a cold, but I did not become sick. After that, the feeling went away. Cold showers help clear your mind of anxiety and stress, and you feel amazing afterwards - crystal clear. Although I still feel uncomfortable on some days, I continue to do it consistently because I know I will feel better afterwards.

@Dr. Eric Berg DC it's been three months of cold showers and my body has changed the peripheral neuropathy the cactus accident (prickly pear 300 entries in legs); my diet no sugars eating mostly sea weed then a month ago BOOM I VOULDNT BREATH I was told I had walking pneumonia I tried fighting it to no help and I got a script of amoxicillin for five days now I'm good but still the cold showers did not seem to change my life I sopposed I'm a different human than others as now I'm back to depressed and short tempered
Cold showers saved my life. Everytime I feel suicidal or depressed I take a cold shower and all the dark thoughts dissapear. I feel great rest of the day and I sleep like a baby.
Edit:
I can answer some questions in the comment secton below. I've been depressed since I was 17, now I'm 32.
My depression did not go away but cold showers gives me a 100 x better antidepressive effect than any pills. I've tried atleast 20 different medications and nothing really works.
Why I feel suicidal is because i can't feel anything, I'm catatonic and the only way out is death in my mind.
Instead of lying in the bed and feeling sorry for myself I ALWAYS promise myself to take a cold shower. Why? Because when that cold water pours over me and I can feel every cell in my body then I know I'm alive. The effect maybe only last 4 hours in worst case but it usually lasts the whole day. It's the best technique I've discoverd. Combined with the wim hof method it's a life saver. My showers last between 2-5 minutes, I live in an old house in Sweden so the showers during winter time are brutal.
I’ve found that reducing sugar and exercising helps my mood too.
100% agree
Mr Fylledal you’re incredible. Good for you! You’re a champion. A whole lot better than the medical crap! Keep going! Keep inspiring. Thank you hero! From NZ 😉
My Grandfather swore by cold showers, and he loved to be 95!
A good kick between legs has the same effect
It’s been a year now since we’ve been doing cold water immersion. One of the benefits that doesn’t get talked about a lot, but we were discussing the other day, is the mental benefit of making yourself do something that you really don’t want to do. I think there is great carry over to living life in getting better at doing uncomfortable things.
Thats right!
True. And if you suffer from depression *everything* is uncomfortable.
I substitute cold shower with early morning workouts. A government employee, I deal with discomfort all the time.
Right on!
Agreed.
Its incorporated in Navy SEAL training.
I been doing it for 3 days and it feels amazing… I’m on the path to changing my life physically, spiritually and mentally since I’m going through some health problems and a lot of stress.
God bless you,iam doing that,for Trigenimo Neuralgia,im getting much better,4 weeks,i feel great,i bless God for He is good😃
I hope you are doing ok
I do this off and on, but I prefer ice baths. The trick is to wash with warm water, than change it to cold and see how long you can handle it, increasing the length each day.
Edit: This guy knows his stuff
Taking notes amigo
I started working out recently in the mornings, by the time I get home I'm still hot and sweating so I take cold showers to cool off. The feeling of a good workout and a cold shower combined is one of the greatest feelings. I'm awake, more alert, energetic and in a better mood throughout the day.
I also do this…it’s great!
I'm doing the same thing after walking for 30 minuted in thr morning.I take a cold shower. How good and energetic I feel also my mood changes.
God help me, I'm going through serious blood sugar swings..I can't do the showers yet, I know I need to. I'm still trying!
You'll lose muscle gains that way. Generally you should take hot showers after a workout. Or wait 3 hours after workout to take a cold shower
@@eddietheman8870 this is true!!! It will harm the gains after the workout. I always love cardio after weight lifting then later in the afternoon/evening throw the cold shower in to eliminate more cortisol and call it a day!🤙🏼✊🏼
Been taking cold showers everyday for about a year. I can attest to the benefits. I don’t really feel the cold harshly at all anymore. And winter outside is more comfortable.
Did you go right into it or did you gradually make the showers colder and colder
@@MSwobs I started out with normal showers with about 15-30 seconds of full cold at the end to finish. Did that for about a week and then got rid of hot showers and went pure cold 3-4 mins. Occasionally have a blasting hot bath in and out of cold shower. Better circulation, better moods, better skin even.
How cold is cold? As cold as the shower will go?
@@nimz8521 yeah tap set on hard cold. In summer it wasn’t cold enough.
I dont take showers.
I started taking cold showers during our heatwave and noticed a change in the softness of my skin, my hair is softer and I have more energy, I can now take only cold shower without any warm water for 10 minutes. I love it! 🙂
I take twice a day in this heatwave ,and true my skin better and anxiety decreased
It definitely makes you hair super soft
@@emilune107 hahaha. ❤
Nice, timing-wise, cuz i've started over this not-so-wintry winter, tho i am up in Canada.
Me too. Its Great
Thanks to wim hoff I starten 2 montessori ago. 😊❤
Before I became a mom, my husband and I were young and starting off rough. We couldn't afford electricity or heat. I took cold showers every single day for about 6 months. I remember during the winter I would step out of my freezing shower feeling like needles poking me in the legs. Don't recall getting use to it, just remember thinking "Do what you gotta do"... We finally got back on our feet. However, one thing I also noticed was how gorgeous my hair was. I mean shiny, volume. It was just healthy looking..
Cold showers are rough, especially during winter time when you have no heat or electricity, but cold showers do wonder to your hair! 🙂
Couple of tips -
- Start off warm then drop temp gradually
- Breath deeply when dropping temp, it takes the shock off.
- Dont forget to leave on normal temp for partner :-)
i ve don this for about a month but still cant get used to really cold showers
@@keisuketakahasi4584 weak turkey haha
I like the last tip the most lol
@@davidwood8439 It depends on which role you have in the partnership. If they are the boss, put the temp back. If you are the boss, push them in the cold shower... it’s for their own good. 😂
It’s what I do anyway.
I have been doing cold showers everyday (straight under the cold water) everyday this year (2022). The first 30 seconds can be tricky but after that your body gradually gets used to it. I’m finding now that after 5 mins it just feels like warm water:)
I crave it and feel great after the shower.
That reminds me of the winter freeze in Texas,, I remember a pipe busted and they're ran under our house and I was getting soaked when trying to fix it and it felt warm so I didn't mind it but I take cold showers all the time. Very rarely do I take hot showers. I've been taking cold showers since I was 15 and I'm 27 now and I had no idea there were any health benefits, I just hate the heat.
I’d rather have a hot shower for 5 minutes.
Every (space) day.
Wow 😮 these comments have me over thinking about starting tomorrow.
Cold showers bring so many benefits from self discipline to increased muscle mass and concentration it’s mad and it’s something they don’t teach us in school along with semen retention. Anyway I just made a vid on all this and went in deep I’d appreciate if you take a look you’ll learn something great 💯💪🏽
Been taking 5-7 minute cold showers at 3:30am for almost a month. Makes me feel unbelievably awesome until I go to bed 18 hours later. I HATE doing it, but the payoff is just too big in terms of how fantastic I feel every minute of the day. So I do it every day.
To those who have doubts and fear about cold shower, I wanna say that it is possible for anyone to start practicing and there will be a time when it will just be a part of life, even during the winters.
Right. Thanks for the advice.
If you're here for the part about losing weight:
Do a plank during the cold shower.
If you're already torturing yourself, you might as well double down on it.
Lol
Remarkable insights, I'm doing this!
Wish I wasn't too tall for this... Perhaps I need to go with a handstand.
This comm is underrated
It's amazing what people will do to avoid going for regular walks and the occasional run.
To anyone struggling with the cold. Relax . Try not to fight against it . The key is acceptance. Your body is strong , you can deal with its affects, we’re built to deal with such conditions . Go get it
“The key is acceptance.” So true for so many things that are initially difficult…that kind of thinking will help you get through so much in life.
Exactly!
Amazing comment.
This is inspiring
@Koosha Las Vegas Ex Muslim Did Jesus build himself, or did the father, or are they the same person? I'm confused...
I've been doing cold showers everyday for over a year now. I'm so used to it now I actually look forward to it. The jolt boosts my mood and energy and my waistline has definitely shrunk. I was very glad to see I still had my washboard abs under the spare tire I had grown since college.
That’s tough over a year you’re an inspiration, way of the warrior, I have a long way to go.
@@MightyMonk360 they say it takes about 2 weeks to form or break a habit before it starts to feel routine. Any perceived difficulty or temptation to quit is just mental and fades away eventually. The water is no less cold but as I said I look forward to it now, because I know how refreshed and alive I will feel afterward. It's easier than drinking Apple Cider Vinegar, in my opinion.! I do a lot of difficult things for my health, but cold showers isn't at the top of list.
That's awesome man.
Ive been doing cold shower for a month after Sauna. Now I can manage 10+ min under the "cold rain". And I Don't walk into the Sauna imidiately because the afterward effect feels wonderful.
I will start doing ice baths this spring. Where I aiming for 1-3 minutes.
I'm 72 and I've been taking cold showers everyday for months. I divide it up by doing thirty seconds on bad wrist, 30 seconds on feet and ankles, 30 seconds on knees, 30 seconds on bad shoulder, 30 seconds on face and eyes and then about a minute on rest of body. I have reduced my aches and pains by about 90 per cent from doing this routine. In the past I've always experienced a lot of pain after a hard workout. Now, when I do a hard workout it's like I didn't do the workout at all. The cold showers have been that effective in pain reduction.
Been doing this for two years now. Anxiety gone, T levels up, brain fog gone. This was life changing for me.
whats dr berg refer to is room temperature water right? when its morning water usually cold, that kind of cold right? or ice cold?
@@imanafdar As cold as you can tolerate.
Thats amazing brother been dealing with brain fog and anxiety myself gonna give this a go
I’ve been taking only cold showers for that last 4 years and I do 12 hr fasting. I’m in my late 40’s and have not been sick since then.
I have been struggling with brain fog for years. I will definitely give it a try ASAP!
Cold showers basically shock your entire system to run more efficiently and not be in its comfort zone.
It also helps you regulate your body temperature if you feel cold all the time. (Which was perfect for me)🤓
But how does one handle the cold? I always loose my breath
@@andrewmeiklem5098 are you a man or are you a mouse... I'm only kidding. Yes yes, it does take your breath away, it does shock you to say the least, but the benefits.... oh the benefits...
@@olcraigsen LOL
My body does better with hot showers, except during the summer. Otherwise cold showers for me promotes imbalance in my body which means less efficient.
@@babajaiy8246 same with me. I have sinuses and mucus problem so cold shower makes me sick. Also for women,. during menstrual cycle cold shower is the worst..
I actually love Dr Berg's videos he's a realist and not a fraudulent pharmaceutical drug pusher
I've been taking cold showers for 3 years, adopted the 5 am victory hour this year and recently 16/8 intermittent fasting and 10+20 mins of HIIT sessions each day. All these help me to be a top performer in a stressful and pressured tech sales environment. Make more money and better health. Give it a go everyone.
Does it really help mental health as promoted?
@@moosha786 Definitely!
Hey that’s awesome to hear, keep it up! I was just wondering if you are performing your HIIT while fasting and if so what is your fasting time frame so I can try and implement that to my schedule too, thanks!
@@xCRAZYF1GHT3Rx I skip breakfast so the 10 minutes session at 5am is light, I do abs or low impact exercises. My 20 minutes HIIT session is during eating window, so it's all good there. It feels so good to have a healthy routine that suits my life style, really wish I started this many years back.
@@thelongnguyens Do you do the face peel mask like 'American Psycho' too?
Only kidding, good for you. I only do the cold shower bit, I love it
I had an elderly neighbour who told me once that he had cold showers every morning and had done for over 50 years. He lived well into his nineties.
My grandma drank red wine, ate pizza and smoked like a chimney and lived into her 90s too, what's your point?
Wow 🐱👍🏿
@@mattsmith7019 you sure told him!
@@mattsmith7019 I'm on her plan, good to know...
Yes David living Well is the key! Thank you for sharing. From NZ
I'm doing a cold shower after I wake up at 04.00-05.00 am, been doing it for three months now. Headache, back pain, simply gone. I don't even have a problem with my high blood pressure anymore. ✨
wow
Incredible discipline you have 👍
@@Drberg yeah ! Wow
@@Neddy540 anything for health man. Actually there's a time when I overslept or when it feels too cold to take the bath on early morning. But since I really feels the difference on my body compared when I'm not taking cold shower, I forced myself to continue doing it.
@@alhakch.402 great determination in your part and thanks for the encouragement and inspiration. I use outdoor old fashioned bath amongst olive trees in NZ 🛁
Been taking cold showers every morning for like a year allready, didn't skip a day. Yes, it's still uncomfortable sometimes, but wouldn't want to skip a day! Besides the physical benefits, the cold shower perfectly makes you ready for whatever the day will bring!
Keep it up man!👍
Another great video ! I’ve been taking cold showers for 18 months and the benefits physically and mentally have been massive. It helped me to quit alcohol, I lost 13kg of weight, all of which was fat. I feel better, I look better. Start gently and with regular practice you’ll be be taking 100% cold showers easily, even in winter!
Can you explain how it helped with weight loss? I don’t understand the link
@@MJ-qb5ph alcohol makes you fat. Cut the booze and all the fat disappeared. Cold showers gave me the mental strength to stay off the drink.
Should I still take cold showers even tho it hurts my ears whenever I do it after
I'm a 30 year old guy in Ireland with multiple sclerosis. I have numbness and tingling in both hands. I recently read a study that MS patients with these type of symptoms started having big improvements and noticed the numbness and tingling started to disappear. I'm going to start having cold showers today to see how I react, happy to provide updates if anyone's interested!
Interesting to read your comment because I suffered a brain stroke abs from that my whole right side as barely any feeling and lots of tingling going on. Allot of nerve damage as well. I’m happy to hear “cold showers” helped you and again, hearing this helped you I’ll give it a shot as well.
Yes please let us know how it goes. Hope it works for you
Has it been helping 2 weeks later?
I am 58 Had MS since 1997 I take lukewarm- cold showers,hot showers i almost pass out,in summer alot i shower outside under the water hose,Just if u over heat Do Not Jump in a Cold shower I over heated and did that i had a bad headache for 2 days,i cooled my brain way to fast,try CBD oil helps the Numb & tingling well or it did for me
Would love to know how it's working for you, have a lovely day
I have been taking cold showers every day for over two years now. It's nice to know about the health benefits because I mainly adopted this practice to save over $50 a month on my electricity bill (along with stopping using my dryer and oven).
I did it for two years from summer 2019 to summer 2021, without any warm showers. I stopped because I didn't really have a reason to continue and I'm not dieting or anything lol
No no don’t become a cheapskate
Me too, except the cold shower.
Biden's America...
@DAT 💀 💀
I’ve been taking cold showers for at least six months or so. We are in the winter months now and the water out of our tap on full cold is 54° currently
at the beginning of January.
It’s a whole new challenge this time of year because what I thought was cold in the summer was nothing compared to this! I enjoy the challenge and the feeling of accomplishment after each shower.
I cold shower in summer, not in winter in the UK
Ive been doing like 90% cold and switching to full cold is a whole other thing its painful to the skin only lasting 30 sec on that level on 90% percent no problem at all.
@@MsFlipper1969 Is that's why it hurts 😂
@@cryptosteve5377 it's the getting warm again afterwards! Brrrr
Yup. And you notice if other showers run colder/warmer
Tried during winter, and can totally recommend, it really makes you appreciate warm showers that much more and adds a further understanding to what pain is.
what?
@@LovettbalngoodsLLC can you read?
@@wanghaf_Gl0yper 😂
LMAO
By far the most noticeable benefit is reduction of stress and anxiety. You are immediately calm afterwards - and remain that way for the day.
Thank you David for the encouragement. I have an outdoor old fashioned bath. From NZ. 🛁
The first 40 seconds of a cold shower is painful but than your body adapts to it, I’ve been taking cold showers for 3 minutes a day for about 2 years now and it’s definitely alleviated feelings of depression.
I clean my body the same way I scrub my dirty dishes. There is no way I could ever take a 3-minute shower.
I clean my self first with warm water and then I change to cold shower for a few minutes.
Actually no I have to have mine warm only weirdos take cold showers
@@jtown1bb I wouldn’t either
@@MelB868 don’t knock it until you’ve tried it, and yes I am a bit weird and proud of it.🤪
Great advice. I cool down my showers consistently and at age 68 years, all of my body markers and youthful vitality are outstanding. Good job, Doc.
I think you and your videos are going to save my life. I'm real healthy for a fifty-year-old but didn't realize how unhealthy I am! Thank you so much. This is clearly the kind of information the pharmaceutical industry doesn't like. I'm surprised they aren't limiting your reach. I also believe you couldn't put a price on this information so you are a blessing from God to anybody willing to listen to you. Thank you Dr. Berg.
My dad is 70+ years and there was never a day when he skipped his morning cold shower. As you rightly mentioned, he is fit as a fiddle with no BP or diabetes or any ailments that usually people at this age suffer.
I'm sure he probably had other good habits for his health right?
@@chrisafp071 yes and I am anxious to know too.
If he is concerned with his health enough to subject himself to cold showers everyday, he's obviously doing other things that contribute to his overall good health. This is what we call an anecdote.
My neighbour is 73 and as healty as anyone can ever be. He never took a cold shower in his life. On the other hand: no alcohol, no cigarettes, eating healty, and daily 45min run.
one incident does not make a case......there are too many variables, etc, to say....
For anyone finding it difficult: start with 5 seconds of the cold water just on your head. Then wait about 30 seconds before starting a full cold shower, the rest of your body won't feel much of the cold shock.
Thanks for the tip.
.
Yes, I always start with my arms, my legs, then my head, and finally full body.
Thanks for the tip I'm willing to give it a try. Cold showers generally irritate me and put me in a bad mood.
@@lindasue8719 You're the only one that's saying this.
Wim Hof didn't recommend getting your head cold, as I seem to recall bad things could happen (like passing out or something). Something about sympathetic vs parasympathetic.
I been doing cold showers in the morning every day for 3 months, i feel full energetic, mental stronger, heavy workouts, better sleep. Keep it up! oss
Just found this video…I am on 8 weeks of cold showers already! Because ive watched Wilm hoff. I’ve forgotten all
The reasons why - but I love it and it’s great!! Thank you dr Berg for
The reminder!!!
For those hyper sensitive people, I took an extremely slow approach. The first day I would just do my hands, the next day my arms, etc. I would only add what I could stand. The thing is, your body adapts over time so the body part that was sensitive today will become less sensitive tomorrow and over time my whole body was able to take the shock of the cold without any problem at all.
I'm very hypersensitive to touch and sound. I can attest to the building up of strength. I've been taking cold showers for about two almost three months and I started with dry brushing first and then I started jumping in a cold shower afterwards and it's tough, no doubt. I have to remind myself that the cold shower is literally the hardest thing I have to do because after that EVERYTHING feels manageable. I started noticing myself leaning into it more, noticably more because I take a lot longer cold showers than I used to and for the first time I actually washed my hair in the cold shower (I have a lot of hair). I still struggle to do it especially because I started in winter weather but practicing in winter will make it all the more enjoyable and rewarding come summer time. Next winter I hope to be able to do the cold immersion in a local river or lake. Who knows, maybe I'll be able to do it at least once this winter... 💁
I just turn it on straight in my face, like ripping off a band aid, gets you used to it very quickly haha
@@rae9603 same lol
That's good advice and useful to know - thank you!
Pro tip: Splash cold water from the sink on your face and body before getting into a cold shower. Makes it so much easier
a few years ago, my water heater broke during the coldest month in southern california, i had to take cold shower everyday for 2 weeks. i dont remember the benefits, but i remember how happy i was when i finally had the hot water.
The coldest month in so cal thats funny.
A whopping 62° probably lol
Dude it is mind set
I've come across a couple of your videos and your stuff is simple and straight to the point. Thank you!
I’ve been doing showers for past month for fibromyalgia. Definitely has been helping!!
I’ve taken a cold shower almost every day for the past year and it’s changed my life in so many ways.
How so?
@@Screenwriting more energy, better focus, decreased inflammation (helps with my psoriasis), I used to get a cold frequently and bad allergies and now that’s all gone. I’m more alert and I get better sleep. 2-3 minutes a day can change your life.
@Ali Ali I was wondering the same thing. I shower every day but dont wash my hair every day as it would take too long to dry & I need to get to work.
@Ali Ali i hadnt thought of that but you might be right to be concerned about it
@@thelongevityproject Awesome. Thanks for that great info. I'm gonna try it. I've heard that another thing that helps with Psoriasis, eczema and acne is juicing with organic celery juice. Look up medical medium.
The first time I took a cold shower I noticed my skin’s sense of touch was very acute and reactive afterwards. It reminded me of when I was a kid, when my senses were sharp and awake.
lol what are you 80?

LOVED this. I am healing right now and I went out in the sweltering heat to walk somewhere and man, my body really did some wonderful things, chemically speaking! A ton of my insulin resistance went away! I mean, I couldn't STAND when my blood sugars would drop or when my mind and body started beggining for food but this was greatly diminished AFTER going in the heat! I really enjoy Hormetic effect Therapy now 😃.
I have been suffering from psoriasis for more than 35 years now. Through life this make you feel different. The whole day you feel your dry skin and you leave scales all day all over the place. Late 2019 i started taking cold showers (2-3 minutes each day ) and stopped taking WARM SHOWERS ALL TOGETHER. At the start more than 30% of my body was covered with psoriasis plaque. It took about a month to see a clear difference (less scaling) and maybe 3-4 months to reduce the covered skin to less than 5% (the legs were hard to clear.) This was the first ever time in my life were the psoriasis went a away without using UVB therapy or other treatment.
Then i did something stupid and i started mixing in warm water and after 1 year > 30% was covered again. How stupid is that?! How did i forgot this?? Because warm water is comforting?? So 3 months ago i started again. It is summer over here, so cold isn't really that cold. (15°C...20°C) Guess what?: most of it cleared already.
When i tell people, they don't believe it and says it is a coincidence. Ya rigth...2% of people suffer from it and this is just a coincidence. That does not make sense statistically.
My answer to that is just try it! Try it for a month and see what happens. If anything it will reduce you're gas bill. I believe that warm water does withhold your skin from healing a psoriasis spike. The spots now still appear, but in stead of getting larger, after a while they disappear again.
Where in nature do mammals take daily warm showers?
Hey Lex, my close relative had it awful. On elbows and legs. We didnt see each other for about a month and his was almost cleared. I ask what did he do and he had read not to shower every day. He went the first week not showering to 3 x over week. Its amazing....a miracle! I always thought it was internal from diet, but this proved me wrong. Thanks for sharing. Today was my first cool shower!
I’ve been taking a cold shower for a month at the moment, and not having anxiety, I actually forgot that I had anxiety for two years 😂 I hope u get what I mean, it is life changing for me ✨
I take shower in my garden. All the time, no matter what month. Yes, in December, in Europe. Wintertime. After the shower, no towel. Just staying in the sunlight for another ten minutes.
I love it.
Sunlight in December? Are you on the Moon named Europe?
We have an outdoor dog bath/shower. Time to repurpose that this winter!
@@joosepnilk6978 Sunlight in December, for sure. And I'm in a Mood. :-)

This is something the ancient Romans understood and embraced. Many of you already know this, but their public bath houses had separated temperature pools (baths): the caldarium (hot), the tepidarium (warm), and the frigidarium (cold), much like the baths Dr. Berg tried on his vacation. It was a part of the daily life of a Roman citizen. I think that is so cool! Literally!😀
I love it. Started last year and I haven’t stopped. Feels refreshing.
Wim Hof is the man. I do his method everyday ( breathing in the morning and cold shower after my warm one )
I'll speak on personal changes I noticed, from the cold shower.
Anxiety literally goes away, No exaggeration. I would get anxious going into the unknown or big events, now, I am so damn calm, It's like I'm a different person.
Another thing, stamina. I was helping a friend move during the summer, when the heat wave first hit. 90+ all day, no clouds, started around 2PM, ended at 10PM. I only stopped once to drink water and kept moving, lifting, etc.
After it was all done, I felt I could do it all over again. That was the first time I noticed the effect of the cold showers.
Now, you will hate it, we all do. That initial first time you will be scared and do little by little, with your foot, then your leg, etc.
That's what I did. Then I did my back one day and could barely stay in without shaking so much then jumping out.
After the 4th day, I got so pissed off and say THIS IS WATER YOU BITCH. Then I pushed my whole backside into it and stayed for 10 sec and DID IT.
That gave me the confidence to keep at it.
Once I got my back used to it, then I did the front ( front is harder ) and now, I do it everyday.
Even though you get used to the cold, you still will have it in your head "Ah man do i really want to do this..." and you do it anyway, that gives you the power over your mind, and you become who you were meant to be...a F-IN BEAT IN CONTROL.
"This is water you b!tch" 😂 I remember doing this, and insulting the water like C'MON 👊💪, IS THAT ALL U GOT?! with really heavy metal music in the background or something to pump me up even more
Say "This is water, you b**ch" with boiling water and see how that works out.

Especially in countries with chloride and fluoride in the water cold showerd will save you from getting carcinogenic damps in your lungs. Also the these chemicals will be less absorbed through your skin with your skin pores closed as a reaction to the cold.
I have been taking cold showers for almost two years and my acid reflux is gone praise to God 🙏🏾
Tried my first cold shower this morning. It was great.
Here is an idea. You actually don’t need to take a cold shower with soap and shampoo because that is really uncomfortable. 😂
Take a regular shower and than when finished turn the water to cold for 3 to 4 minutes. 🥶
Worked perfect this morning!!

You are wasting too much water

@@ramonmendoza2510 lol wut. You can’t waste water. It’s not even possible. Turn off the propaganda. 😂

I started doing cold showers one month ago. Started at 1 minute, now at 5. I love them! I feel mellow and energized at the same time. One thing not covered is the temperature of the "cold" water. It will differ based on time of year and your location. A cold shower in July in Alabama is a lot different than a cold shower in Minnesota in February. It's mid December here in New Jersey and the water is getting colder every day. I wonder how the cold water will feel to me when spring and summer arrive...will it be cold enough?
I'm in South Carolina and in the summer the water is not nearly cold enough.
I'm not from US, but I have the same issue when summer comes. And the solutions are: a freezer like the one Wim Hof using or a bath tube filled with water and ice. Wim Hof's advise to have at least 15 deg Celsius as a max temperature. It would be perfect to be 12-13 deg Celsius. Of course the best is to have from time to time a ice cold water temperature - about 2-3 to 5 deg Celsius.
@@hristiyaniliev3863 It's fine having the water temperature to be "less cold" during summer. I think It's a more natural way to take showers. Like eating vegetables that are in season. We shower with water that is "in season"
I live in Minnesota.. those early morning cold showers in february hit different bro
in summer, your body also heats up more / sweats more overall. it’s all about the temperature difference to ambient. at least the effect is not dulled too much.
I've been taking cold showers for the last few weeks, and I've definitely noticed a positive change in my mood and alertness.
Been doing ONLY cold showers for the past 7-8 years. Best decision ever.
I can confirm helped me:
1) cope with my severe depression
2) immune system ( i haven.t caught a cold since then - most i ever got was a running nose, even though previously the routine i had at least 2 severe cold and pisodes / year)
3) better than coffee (insta wake up in the morning)
4) I go outside in tshirt it temps are above 6-8 C and do not feel cold.
5) kept hemorrhoids in check
Now in February (coldest season in europe) the shower water shows 7C degrees celsius.
I'm going to follow in your shoes!

I started taking cold showers about 2 months ago. The difference in how I feel is absolutely amazing! Better workout recovery, less stress, more energy, etc. Cold showers are here to stay!
But a freezing shower hurts and is stressful I love them nice and warm not feeling like ice
@@MelB868 This goes away.
Don't ya feel cold ?
@@haidysama3005 For about 30 seconds or so. Then your body gets used to it and you are good to go!
@@MelB868 I felt the same way until I tried it. Try starting off with a hot shower and then end it with a cold blast for 60 seconds.
Preach on Dr. Berg! Cold exposure is fantastic. Add facing a fear daily to the therapeutic effect. You feel like you can tackle most anything when you face down a self induced cold situation.
I’ve done this everyday when I take my showers even on winter. When I’m fatigued, I allow myself to feel relaxed and let the cold water run for awhile. Meanwhile, rain is great too. I used to make angel wings on ❄️ snow and run and playing in the rain. It’s fun and fun... definitely energy booster for me. All natural.
I've been doing them since 2018. Absolute game changer! I do hot first, then switch to cold. You get used to it. It has done more to help my mood/depression than any medication ever did. Focus on controlling your breathing and keep your head under the water as much as possible. (Blue spot of the brain.)
Do u think it helps with weight loss?
@@ruthietreselan of course. Energy & blood flow help with everything. Stress & cortisol levels, poor sleep- are all HUGE factors in weight gain, or keeping fat. Anything that helps your blood flow, mood, energy & sleep- will help with weight loss 👍

You are right, I do same, hot and then cold shower, great stuff.
@@lolawants2008 Maybe he is in the Blue Man Group.
With the C019 I saw a Doctor recommend this on a different level. He said to do 3 min Hot, 3 Min Cold, 3 Min Hot, 3 min Cold, then do 1 min Hot,1 min Cold. Fully on the Head, no skimping! This he said would activate the immune system to protect the body. He did it everyday after working in the E R all day. He also said it was very cleansing for the mind, emotions, and over all sense of well being psychologically.
Our bathroom got renovated due to water damage. Our shower door hasn't been installed, so I started taking showers without the door. To minimize the water getting everywhere, I have to jump in right away, and the water is COLD.
I actually feel really good during and after 🤩. I do feel stronger, like I'm accomplishing something. It also helps my muscles and joints after my workouts, too.
I started it at first in our other shower and followed the instructions to RELAX and deep breathe. Don't fight it. I'm wasting less water, too. Love from California 🌴 🌞!
I usually shower at night, so I use hot water to cool my body for better sleep. But in the morning I still shower (I don't wash my body) with cold water. Really helps wake me up and I feel great
I'm 52..and I've been following your advice since Jan 1 '22.....I'm down 30 lbs....my energy is back to like my early 30's.....and my body feels GREAT! Dr. Berg has saved my life....please listen to him!

@@ronaldrenegade8519 no.
Actually people follow this religiously. I used it to loose 30lbs and kept it up for years
I just started this routine. I would start off with my usual hot shower for about a min. Then turn it more on the cold side little by little every 30 seconds to adjust. I would do that for 5-10 mins. Its pretty amazing really.
UPDATE: I am now use to cold showers and never sleep better at night 💯
I used to shower normally with warm and then also towards the end before i got out turn it lower and lower until it's the coldest. Might not have as good an effect, but it's a good way to get into it, and maybe start doing it more and more cold bit by bit.
I been taking cold showrrs without thinking about it. I need to cut back on hot water n clean faster
@Mekehl not if the purpose is to get used to it first
It's my 2nd day. The first day i was gasping for air, i couldn't breathe after 5 seconds. Thought i was going into cardiac arrest. Day 2 i managed deep controlled breathing (exhaling fast) and i love it now. I feel so great afterwards. I have a warm shower for 1 minute and then move it to cold. I only stay under for 15-20 seconds though, will gradually increase.
@@veclubby I am the same gasping and I am unable to continue

hi.. may i ask how long do you wait before you take a shower after your workout?
I'm replying to your comment 8 months later - how did it go or is it going? Can you give us an update please? Thanks :-)
When I started cold showers I went all in, no hot to cold just straight to cold. Now I live in Florida so cold is not freezing. Still it was torture at first. I am now into Florida winter and even though the water is much colder the shock is very minimal. Cold showers are like running. I don't look forward to it but once I start i feel great.
@jow popper. I feel the same way about running too.
Great analogy.
It’s wonderful to hear you discuss the cold showers and cold exposer. My long-term exposure to cold showers made me believe in thermogenesis. I’m 59 years old, and a former college professor encouraged me to take cold showers to prevent sinus and flu episodes when I was 21.
I gave it a go, starting with hot showers and working my way up to the cold exposure-no more hot baths after that. As a result, I had fewer cold episodes in forty years and no other health problems. I had more energy and focus, better and smoother skin, and fewer sports-related injuries. You will not be sorry if you give it a shot. Greetings from Brazil.
So NO hot showers at all? Sounds painful, when you shave? Well, if you shave in the shower, that is. :D
How about cold showers at night after workout?
Getting out of your comfort zone often will break up complacency mind set and better prepare one for unplanned happenings .
Fully agree.
@@carstenhansen5757 I vary between lukewarm and cold occasionally, but never hot. I’m a bearded dude, therefore I just shave below my neckline and above my cheek line (LOL). In fact, a smidgeon of lukewarm will suffice. Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment.
It’s a battle of the mind to get started but it’s so worth it
I've been taking a cold shower almost every day for a year, it's fantastic, I feel better. I have more energy, I feel more focused, less distracted. My mind is clearer, less thoughts after a cold shower and that's what I like best it makes me uncomfortable, it takes me out of my comfort zone.
Nice to see you cover cold showers, I've been doing them for a few years now and the boost it gives your everyday life is so good.
I do sometimes. Other times I do room temperature showers the warmest. I don’t get how people do those hot sauna temperature showers.

First day of my 14 day challenge - honestly … it felt AMAZING ! and it’s easier the longer you stay :) good luck to all the newbies like me :)
will try the same today and report
Day 2 : I was actually looking forward to it ! Yesterday I did 30 seconds - today 1 minute !!! i take my regular shower then I do it - I swear after the first 15-20 seconds I started to enjoy it ! I’m also doing a 3 day fasting (today is day 2 only water) & I feel amazing ! I love healthy challenges !
How Good went today?
hey, try breathing slowly few minutes before jumping under the water and keep the calm breathing even through the shower, helps a lot with the shock
Day 3: today I did 1 minute because I did something more drastic : place my head under the shower :) I live in Quebec so cold water here is colder than in my native Colombia - but I’m here for the challenge !!! :) also today day 3 of fasting - only water & I see and feel differences for sure !! I love this channel !!!
Actually, two years ago, I took a very cold shower in the winter, especially at dawn, until I got water at a freezing point. It is really very useful for two minutes, after which you do not feel cold.
Lies
It's true though lol. I worked at a summer camp and the hot water was busted, so I was forced to shower every night with cold water and just wash my face in the morning. You get used to it eventually from a couple seconds to a couple of minutes of exposure, your energy level does increase

For a number of years, I have had a cold rinse each day. Not willing to have a full completely cold shower (especially in winter). But found even having the cold rinse works well.
I started taking cold showers after a heatwave simply to cool down and help me sleep. At first I could barely stick my arms under the cold water without it taking my breath away. But you do get used to it. Now whenever I shower I'll switch to cold afterwards and stay there for about 8 minutes or so. Feels amazing.
I've taken more than 700 cold water showers, at the lowest possible temperature, and in places like Kyoto, Portland and the Himalayas. At least 365 of them were consecutive. The *only* benefit I gained was the ability to jump into a cold water shower without feeling nervous. That's it. Nothing else changed, life was still the same.
Perhaps you were pretty healthy already :)
Thank you. 🙏🏻
(Kinda sick of the "Misery Makes Miracles" dogma on the webs)
Your body was already well tuning or something fitting in between genetics, DNA... all of these buzz words that makes someone appear nerdy than they are.
I always felt better after a cold shower than if I took a warm or hot shower. I can corroborate that it's not enough to lose weight, if that's what you were hoping for. You still need a good diet and exercise routine, especially to enjoy more of the benefits of cold therapy.
Did this as a 30 challenge ~ 6 years ago. Have not stopped since and never plan to. Best change I've ever made in my daily routine.
I started taking cold showers after reading the Wim Hof book last October. Never got on with the breathing, but i absolutely stuck with the cold showers.
I am a different man now. Truly. So many changes started happening after a few months of cold showers. Stopped smoking and drugs after more than 15 years of massive use, my skin conditions went away, almost no dandruff anymore. better sleep. i don't really mind cold weather anymore. Started to get up early every day and go to sleep at a fixed time.
I am sure it's not because of the cold showers, but because of the new mindset to start the day with something truly uncomfortable, feeling so much better after it. Might start with the breathing again now that my lungs start to work better :)
Am dreaming of cold baths sometimes, but that's not an option currently.
How long do you take them and do you think a long cold shower is worse than short cold shower?
@@kenzieusa3356 For me, I am probably in there no more than 2 minutes. It's everything I need to feel great and ready to go in the morning. 5 min, like Dr. Berg recommends, is not realistic for me to maintain over the course of time. Any habit I pick up, most important thing, I think, is to make sure I can actually maintain it. Anything too extreme, I will never stick to over time... and compared to most people, I'm pretty extreme.
@@johnk3852 yeah that’s true consistency is key. I feel like even if I’m in there long enough and get used to it, it doesn’t work as well I’m not sure how to explain it
Thanks a LOT sir. I'll try it.
Explains a lot about myself, thank you this is a treasure trove of knowledge.
As someone who very slowly got into cold showers (reluctant like many), they have since become a near daily thing for me the past few years and have been absolutely life changing. It sounds too good to be true, and there is a cost of being uncomfortable, but I really have seen all of these benefits. I almost never get sick, my mild allergies are literally gone, my anxiety and brain fog (especially during the pandemic here) are 100x easier to manage and a cold shower is way more potent than caffeine for focus for me with no crash. I am less sore after workouts as I recover faster, and my 50 pound weight loss is probably much more due to healthy diet changes so it's anecdotal, but didnt hurt! Thank you SO much for sharing this and about Wim's work. He and you have changed my life! 🙏 Happy Holidays
im going to start today!
@@arcticmorning You can ease into it by taking a HOT bath for 15 min. Then open the drain and start running COLD WATER ONLY into the tub. Little by little plug the drain, then open it etc etc.. until you are sitting in REALLY cold water only. Sit there for 15 min.
