Tips for a successful cold bath
- Bring a towel and warm, dry clothes to put on after the bath.
- Feel free to have a towel to stand on when you get out of the water.
- A bathrobe can be nice to wrap the body in after the bath.
- Hat and mittens if it is cold.
- Breathe calmly and take control of your breathing. Take 10 calm breaths.
- Take it easy when going in and out of the water.
- Do not bathe alone. If no one is accompanying you in the water, you probably have a friend who keeps you company from the land.
- If you have previously had heart disease or high blood pressure - consult your doctor first.
