#ColdPlunge
1 post
I woke up at 3:47 AM today.
Not because my alarm went off.
Because my body no longer requires sleep.
I walked barefoot across the frozen deck.
The ice didn't crack beneath me.
It parted out of respect.
I lowered myself into the water.
2°C.
I used to think that was cold.
Then I stopped thinking altogether.
45 minutes.
My breath slowed to once every four minutes.
A nearby hawk stopped mid-flight to observe.
My cortisol didn't just drop.
It went negative.
My doctor called it "medically concerning."
I called it "a baseline."
My resting heart rate is now a number my smartwatch refuses to display.
Because it respects me too much.
This is why I cold plunge at 2°C every morning for 45 minutes.
Not for the health benefits.
For the leverage.
