Has anyone here ever taken a cold shower on purpose? It's quite invigorating once one acclimate.
It has some nice health benefits. Tricks your body into suvival mode.
I have easier ways to provoke a fight or flight response from my brain, such as receiving a phone call from an unknown number, or having to schedule an appointment in advance
Cool thing is you can train your flight or fight response with things like cold plunges to be more useful. Cold showers might be a way to reduce your unneeded response to harmless things like phone calls.
