I hate going in but after a few minutes I'm almost euphoric. There is a great sense of achievement and overcoming. You've stepped out of your skin as an ordinary man and become a superman. A God!
There is just something so clear and attractive about cold water. A little over a year ago my warm water shut off for a few days because of a power outage and I was forced to take cold showers. It turned out to be inspiring and I kept with it until now. Something that was really cool to me was that cold water stopped being an enemy or something that had to be avoided anymore and if I see a frozen lake I no longer view it as inaccessible which is very freeing. It's been an amazing experience and I actually no longer like swimming in warm water ha ha.
Beautiful job done on this. Cold water is nature’s unconditional love. Always a challenge. Always new. Sometimes the very last thing we want but ultimately what we need. It’s the gift that keeps on giving. “Go to the sea to drown the miserable man”. You simply cannot come out of the sea the way you went in. Transformative whether you like it or not,
I am a daily open ocean swimmer for 7 years now. Can't express in words the stamina clarity peace confidence and joy that swimming in cold water had on my body and mind during and after effect. I don't reacall getting sick even to covid-19 exposure and others. water is life itself in various vessels . the seen (water) and the unseen(air) is the ELohim The fountain of youth.
I started going in every day in the Pacific since October. It was 18° and now it's down to 16°. It's not cold like this, but it's still cold. The first three minutes hurt, but these are the benefits I've been getting: lifting depression; headache relief; better looking skin (actually reducing wrinkles); a buzz that lasts hours; decrease in anxiety; feeling intensely alive for 15 minutes; being IN the world's most beautiful setting; playing; having great contacts with other swimmers and surfers; feeling a sense of power by facing the pain each day; feeling empowered to do other things. In short, it's totally worth it. Give it a shot. Beats any drug.
Hi Kassandra! I love seeing the waterline showing when slowly going all the way underwater a couple times and especially on an accident! I loved seeing the waterline showing when coming all the way out of the water a couple times! And after slowly coming all the way out of the water, sometimes I love seeing the waterline showing when going all the way underwater from halfway underwater like after going halfway underwater at the same time especially in an accident a couple times! I especially love seeing the waterline when also going all the way underwater with you too at the lake! Underwater is so beautiful!🐟🐬😘💦😍😊🌺🌷💕💧👙🙂❤️🐳👍🌊🐠🥰🌸🦋🐋

Well done and put together Kassandra honest authentic and heart felt.. yes i have been working on cold water immersion since the death of my identical twin brother. I am not a water baby infact i perjhaps have an inner fear of water. I am a yoga teacher and i use the yoga breathing in cold water immersion. i have a small pool at my home that i decided not to take down in the autumn. So i am immersing myself thorugh the winter. i feel that this work that i am doing has really helped with deep held emotions. Thank you for this video. I am sharing this to help others.
Thanks a million for this easy to grasp and understand video, I too experience a state of high vigilance anxiety and fear on a daily basis I wish for yourself and everybody in the world this day inner peace health happiness and joy x
to find the right woMAN.. I think it's like being able to cross a sea 🚀 of flames with a boat made of wax. I managed 🌋to get to you from İSTANBUL without burning.🔥 we are like birds 🕊🕊with broken arms and wings in separate lands, now we need happiness in the SAME DREAMS 🔮🌸
Great video. You set the tone, mood really well..and the information was clear, well delivered and 👍spot on..I've been outdoor swimming for a year and 'skins' circa 6 months
Wonderfully inspiring, I’ve recently started cold water swimming, it’s truly life changing stuff and so addictive. Thank you for your excellent videos, I recommend anyone to get out there and try it.
I have signed up for you so that I can understand the Northern language and culture. I like you better if you write me longer sentences. Hello from Turkey, which is now your second homeland.🧿
