You feel absolutely invigorated, it's like the life force is somehow raised for a moment, an extra jolt of electricity and yes it also gives you a great sense of awareness and indeed as you say fearlessness.
I’m over 30 days of ice cold showers and must say I am experiencing huge benefits And oh now that you mention it my skin is no longer dry and flaky wow didn’t even realize that til just now. I was battling dry skin for years. Along with nofap, plant base diet Now I just gotta get up 5am

Hey Nikhil bro, watsup? How have you been? This is Abhishek from Kolkata, India. Today I have completed 10 weeks of NoFap and it feels amazing. It seriously has life transforming benefits. I stay motivated all the time and very much focused on my goals. Working harder than ever. Energy levels are sky high and have lost weight drastically(I used to be quite a bulky guy .....

Very inspiring bro, keep it up 👍 reading such comments inspires me lot. I am also on nofap from 27/12/2018, . I am also experiencing same benefits, specially clarity of mind, sense of confidence and happiness . I am little bit lazy in doing yog asans, but I will try to make it part of my daily routine. Thank you
@@boseabhishek111 Hi Abhishek, I am also from Kolkata but live in England. I have done NoFap twice for 2 months each time and don't feel that much benefit. I suffer from brain fog a lot and would love to get rid of it. Did you do any more than your comment? Give me any tips thank you.
@@rishsengupta5337 Well, I strictly follow exactly what i have just posted. Though I'm not a specialist in this field I would like just like to share my experience. As far as brain fog is concerned, meditation early in the morning accompanied with pranayama, will help you. That's my take on this issue. Hope it works.
I have been inspired to take action on waking up early in the morning, take cold shower and meditation for 3 months since I watched this video. And it really works out for me. Also I have been following your channel for about 1 year. You are truly amazing with your high energy. Thank you for everything. Love
Cold showers make me laugh a bit but the feeling of absolute concentration, amazing relaxation and natural warmth is absolutely fantastic. The only downside that i find to it is that i will feel tired earlier on in the day although it's more a mental exhaustion. Previously i could be mentally awake for ages but now it has kind of balanced itself out really well. That mixed with a few days of NoFAP and I'm honestly feeling happier, more alive, more motivated, better looking and almost like a magnet to everything or at least most things that I've always wanted. So dedication to not relapse is a high priority now, especially since I've gotten all the data that i personally needed to collect👌🏻
I've taken a freezing cold shower every morning since Jan 1, 2017. It helps with clearing the morning thoughts of negativity and getting your day rollin' and rockin'. There is never a day I don't say "I really don't want to get into that freezing cold" but then I think "In the time you take to think about how you don't want to do this, you could be in the shower." So, bam, in you go. You yip and yap and "woah!" but force yourself to let the water hit your back, both pits, yer yarbles (if equipped) and hair. When you're finished, baby, you are WIDE AWAKE! Now go get 'em!
You rock! I've been doing cold shower rinses, after my hot shower, for over a year also. I have well water, so it's REALLY cold. In the past 3 years, I've been sick only twice.
Just started following Wim Hof and have been doing cold showers for a week now. Man oh man I wish I'd done these before! No warm water at all just pure cold water and other than the first 15 seconds, it's amazing how fast the body jumps on board. I'm finding so many benefits to taking a cold water shower and as a 62 year old man I can't believe how great I feel! Look into the Wim Hof method if you haven't already. He takes it to a whole new level! Again, wish i'd had done this before! Thanks for getting the word out. All the best, Monte
I am 67 y.o. now and have taken cold showers every morning for the last 25 years. It has become such an integral part of my life that i don't notice the difference any more in daily life, except for the fact that i haven't been ill one day ever since.
Im 17, and today i had my very first (intentionally) cold shower ever. Gotta say, it was quite the experience, and i likely will not be able to keep on a continuous streak, but fuck yeah am i going to do it. Wish me luck yall
I've been taking cold showers for 2 weeks. I have the knob set to where if I go any colder the water shuts off. One thing i have to say though is how i was able to get to that point wasn't by sheer determination, but by running a mile first and then taking the cold shower. It makes it far easier to get accustomed to the cold temperature when your body is warmed up. Now i am used to it and can take the cold showers without running. If you're having trouble starting this ritual, try some cardio first :)
@@elifauss7023 yeah, I'm doing it. Not many changes on my skin... maybe a little less oily? I'm not doing complete cold though, my doc said that would screw up my already screwed up neck muscles. Also don't do completely cold showers right after a workout when ur heart is racing and ur muscles are hot, that could cause a heart attack if you have some sort of a weakness that you don't know about. Other than that,it's great! I feel more refreshed. Also on psychological level it does a lot of great things to ya, even if it's just a placebo effect. My dude in the video was right about breathing, it taught me to breath better too. So even if I'm in a cold place I can somewhat control my comfort levels.
The "Scottish shower" is more of a mental thing for me, overcoming something that is uncomfortable. It's help me with disassociating with anything difficult and just embracing what needs to be done for the results that I want.
Brown-Pride I agree (ironically apart from the bias as I obviously love my culture more😂)! Every nation, their culture, ancestry, history, native people/demographic is something to be proud of, cherish, preserve and learn from, for the good and bad, to become better people. I am glad you have pride in your ethnicity/nation, as I do in mine. All should protect and preserve their own and others’ nation/ethnic native people. When we lose our unique identities, we lose ourselves and our roots, everything we represent, symbolized through our unique story-like biology (our phenotypes tell us exactly who we are, cultural origins, our history, ancestry, etc).😊
Brown-Pride That doesn’t prove much about culture, more so historical (maybe modern) ethics, and thus actions. ‘Historical influence’ is a far too vague and subjective statement (and problematic if glorified) as ‘influence’ can be good or bad, or derived of good or bad actions. A majority of historical ‘influence’ is actually just the effect of invasion, war, empire, slavery and spread of demographics globally, thus the spread of ‘influence’. It isn’t a measure of anything except for immorality and disregard for other national and demographic individualism and respect, thus leading to the dissolve and dilutions to foreign ‘influence’. The other end of ‘influence’ is rarer of history but simply, peacefully, foreign cultural adoption by choice, such as art, ideologies, symbolisms, foods, languages, inventions, etc, although this all generally turns into culture-less commodity and trade to benefit native lifestyles, or changes/adapts to reflect the culture of the new demographics and becomes a distinct part of their identity/individualism. However, influence is also completely dependant/relevant to only specific geographical nations and people. India, for example, has no direct significance to my identity and nation, but might to the British in some way or another, little or largely. Overall, ‘historical significance’ is far too specific, a trivial/problematic measurement and subjective in a wider context. I appreciate everyone equally, whether it is a small aboriginal tribe of Australia to a massive historically to modern dominant demographic such as the British. As I said previously, all that matters is we learn from history and change for the preservation of all ethnic identities and demographics.
Brown-Pride I never challenged subjectivity of historical influence to be due to a lack of proof... Historical influence is incredibly insignificant with regards to the value and worth of culture for the exact reasons I mentioned of the reason ‘influence’ spreads and exists. It adds no value of a culture. No matter the global influence of a culture, being big or small, they are all worth existing and significant by demographical adherence. India was a good place to exploit wealth, I am aware of that. Indians fought in WW2, I am aware of that. None of that historical significance/influence adds anything with regards to cultural ‘importance’ over others. Cultural influence is incredibly subjective with regards to the ‘origin of all influence’. Indians are a collective group of ancient demographics/races of different nations and backgrounds, apart from the first settlers. The whole of Scandinavia could subjectively be said to be influenced of each other, yet many of us also say we are completely unique of culture. Historical influence is subjective in this sense. When you say ‘European’ imperialism I recommend you be specific to Britain, etc. My ancestors took no part in that side of that history, that’s like me calling the Islamic Turkish empire ‘Asian imperialism’... including every nation of Asia of it. I have a lot of criticism for your ‘revenge’ sentence. Everyone should be nationalist, not just you, as it is respect and acknowledgement for nation and demographic individuality and global diversity. However, you are not a nationalist if you participate in empire, invasion, even in the case of ‘revenge’ as you call it, as you hold no value over others’ demographics and global diversity, you seek to destroy it through enforcing your identity’s prevail over others.
Brown-Pride Vice versa. Again, historical ‘influence’ is completely reliant upon the subjectivity of what people like about your culture. Not to mention it historically depended upon population, empire, invasion, war and migration to which India, regarding its history and being a mix of different demographics and backgrounds, had no shortage of during its lifetime in comparison to my nation. My nation had influence upon most of Germanic Anglo, Proper and Scandinavian European nations and demographics (to which you wouldn’t understand or know), with little to no contact upon further lands, so of course it would have little ‘influence’ in those regions (apart from perhaps a ‘Chinese whisper’ effect, cultural influence upon nations my people never contacted). Sorry but you are completely conflating and polarizing historical contexts under an arbitrary argument, that India held significance outside its exploitation by the British. How is saying ‘India was a good place to exploit wealth’ ignorant or dismissing of anything? The British siphoned trillions out of India, with no reinvestment back into India itself at the time. To further my point that Britain seriously did not give a damn about India other than its economic potential, you keep mentioning ‘they fought in WW2’ yet the British were responsible for the genocide of 4.2 million deaths of the Indo-Aryan, Bengalis after they were stripped of all food supplies for the British troops in battle... After, Winston Churchill quoted “its their fault for breeding like rabbits”. Like I said before with regards to historical influence, the ‘influence’ can be good or bad, or derived of good and bad actions. It has *nothing* to do with culture. I almost feel like you do not understand what culture is or means... In another perspective, if you believe your culture is so great and superior, why do you value it off of the approval of foreigners? I value my culture off of the fact it is *my* identity, my history and ancestry, something uniquely bound to my demographic. Indians are not ‘one race’, that makes no sense even if they were one dissolved/diluted identity. They have a few main racial lineages (and thus many branch races) within them, due to having native ethnic origins outside of India that brought their own cultures and identities with them, that still haven’t mixed demographics as of modern day. Christianity is a theocratic ideology which influences cultural *values*... not culture. You are correct however in that our true, original paganism, to which was suppressed under Christianity, held many cultural references and significance, to which many Icelanders, the Christians and atheists, in modern day, are returning to through a appreciation of our root values, history and culture. Yes it does make you less of a nationalist. Being a nationalist is about respecting and preserving national roots, culture, representation, demographics, not only of your own nation but others. It is reciprocated appreciation and acknowledgment for individuality, global diversity and all to prevail. The action/imitation of what was done to your nation was done through a globalist mindset of cultural, demographic, national insignificance and disregard. The British diluted and dissolved Indian representation and identity, invaded, killed and then left them neglected and to suffer, like they had done nothing wrong (in fact many claim they overall helped India)... Now you want to do the same to them? Hypocrite, you’d be no better than them by values and actions. (A person’s value is completely subjective, you base a person’s value over purely cultural/demographic allegiance, that’s your choice but I think that is extremely ignorant and naive. You’d value an Indian rapist/pedophile over a good hearted/minded Japanese man for example...) Anyway I don’t have time or can be bothered engaging in this discussion any longer so won’t be reading replies any further. Bless.
Had cold showers for 3 years, winter included when I was 20. Was suffering from asthma. quite severe until I was 18 and then it got a little bit better. But after I started taking cold showers I can say I never got an asthma crisis again.
I have one massive beef with this. Define cold shower. Because "cold" water is very different in different places on Earth. In India it might be something like +20°C, in northern Finland 0-(+4)°C. Good luck with taking that shower every day.
When I first started showering with cold water the cold shocked me but then I continue to take cold showers I don’t get cold shocks anymore and more to enjoy shower with cold water becoz the weather is humid and stop turning on the water heater and showering cold water is a joy it heals many areas so I did just that 😊
Cold showers used to be a staple of elite private boys' schools in both the U.S. and Britain. I think they were felt to be vaguely 'character building.'
Started cold showers about 2 weeks ago, when my family began Covid-19 self isolating. I actually did it spur of the moment, to break the monotony I was feeling. I only realized I had chances on to something special afterwards. Better than coffee! I have built myself up to 8 minutes, twice a day. So many benefits I am only just starting to notice. Folks do it! Start with 30 seconds at the end of your regular routine, and build up.
The cold showers don't really play such a dramatic role on my mentality now. I've just gotten used to it I suppose. It just feels nice and refreshing. In some way, I think and it triggers a sense that I am connecting back with nature more than anything else. Quite nice to think of different destinations whilst enjoying it.
My skin and hair improved a lot since taking cold showers. My hair dermatitis is almost gone, and i don't feel cold as much as i used to. Now can go outside in summer clothes on a cold, windy winter day without feeling cold at all.
sometimes when I take a cold shower it feels SOO GOOD at the end and I don't want to get out of it Also now I take quicker showers and my skin doesn't get dried up from the heat
same. it really is like a drug. I will never in my life not take daily ice cold showers or cold submersion! Try facing the shower head and let the ice cold water hit the back of the top of your neck for about 2 minutes. You will uncontrollably just start smiling and giggling. Its INSANE! Literally!
I take cold showers now. For the first few weeks I would dread it but now my body’s use to it and is no longer a big shock. You feel alive !!! Won’t look back
We do the Same!! and we absolutely love it! You're right this is the best way to start the day, We actually just posted a new video called “The Ultimate Training To Strengthen Your Mindset (Cold Shower Challenge)” and is super fun we would love to hear your thoughts since you are seen to be interested in this topic ruclips.net/video/WVV5MsvEvME/видео.html.
Love cold showers. Slowly the fiancee is embracing the idea. She runs warm like i do. Clearer skin, better hair, more positive putlook and more libido confirmed. Not a placebo. These are things she brought to my attention. Keep up the great work
Take if cold showers is so good, I took one this morning and I feel amazing. Only if I knew about this earlier, but let’s see if it helps me longer term 🚿
I have heard a ton of praise about this practice, but have yet to try it. But from other experiences of mine, I can perhaps understand why this would reap several psychological benefits. I am guessing the shock of being exposed to cold water, and the mental endurance to prevail through it, releases the same endorphins as two other hobbies of mine that follow the same line of reasoning: running and weight lifting. There are points in my run where I push myself so hard I almost fall on my knees gasping for air, and points in my weight lifting where I push myself so hard I almost faint from the pain. Both of these experiences create a heavy sense of euphoria afterwards, and always keep me coming back for more. Its the way humans are programmed, to survive through pain or a traumatic experience and prevail just makes you inherently joyful and proud.
Question: is it better to go for a morning run first thing after you wake up then take a cold shower or to take a cold shower immediately after you open your eyes in the morning? LIKED.
Hussein Al-Hashimi take a cold shower after workout, it helps alot with muscle recovery and I would suggest you to do weight training, running produces stress hormone which reduces your levels of testosterone and weight training increases testosterone. Want to get lean the right way? Do HIIT High Intensity Interval Training it increases testosterone and HGH up to 200%.
@@MrChillaa1 maybe after a run, but after a workout for muscle growth, it's actually counter-productive. Cold showers reduce inflammation which is actually what happens to your muscles after you lift, and is the reason your body would rebuild the muscle bigger and stronger. Don't take cold showers after a workout. It will decrease the stimulus for hypertrophy.
I did this because i had no choice. My heater burst so i had to turn it off and i couldnt afford fixing it. I had to get a new tank etc. So i resorted to cold showers for a long time. During winter too lol. It was rough but overall i think i felt better. Fresher daily, better mental state

Thanks to Win Hof and many other videos like yours I have started cold showers + deep breathing exercises to help with insomnia as a result of chronic stuffiness. I breathe through my mouth so at night it is especially difficult to fall into a deep sleep. I already feel a difference. I welcome any other suggestions that does not involve surgery. Thanks so much for the info, so well articulated and thorough.
Every time I would shampoo my hair it would result in running nose throughout the day. The moment I've started bathing with cold showers, I haven't faced running nose issues in 2 months! This works and it is not the only positive. Trust me, this will change your life :)

@@rishsengupta5337 Well, I strictly follow exactly what i have just posted.
Though I'm not a specialist in this field I would like just like to share my experience.
As far as brain fog is concerned, meditation early in the morning accompanied with pranayama, will help you. That's my take on this issue. Hope it works.
I have been inspired to take action on waking up early in the morning, take cold shower and meditation for 3 months since I watched this video. And it really works out for me.
Also I have been following your channel for about 1 year. You are truly amazing with your high energy. Thank you for everything. Love
There's something about you that makes people root for you and gravitate towards you. Keep going & God bless
Cold showers make me laugh a bit but the feeling of absolute concentration, amazing relaxation and natural warmth is absolutely fantastic. The only downside that i find to it is that i will feel tired earlier on in the day although it's more a mental exhaustion. Previously i could be mentally awake for ages but now it has kind of balanced itself out really well. That mixed with a few days of NoFAP and I'm honestly feeling happier, more alive, more motivated, better looking and almost like a magnet to everything or at least most things that I've always wanted. So dedication to not relapse is a high priority now, especially since I've gotten all the data that i personally needed to collect👌🏻
I've taken a freezing cold shower every morning since Jan 1, 2017. It helps with clearing the morning thoughts of negativity and getting your day rollin' and rockin'. There is never a day I don't say "I really don't want to get into that freezing cold" but then I think "In the time you take to think about how you don't want to do this, you could be in the shower." So, bam, in you go. You yip and yap and "woah!" but force yourself to let the water hit your back, both pits, yer yarbles (if equipped) and hair. When you're finished, baby, you are WIDE AWAKE! Now go get 'em!
💯💯💯
You rock! I've been doing cold shower rinses, after my hot shower, for over a year also. I have well water, so it's REALLY cold. In the past 3 years, I've been sick only twice.
Just started following Wim Hof and have been doing cold showers for a week now. Man oh man I wish I'd done these before! No warm water at all just pure cold water and other than the first 15 seconds, it's amazing how fast the body jumps on board. I'm finding so many benefits to taking a cold water shower and as a 62 year old man I can't believe how great I feel! Look into the Wim Hof method if you haven't already. He takes it to a whole new level! Again, wish i'd had done this before! Thanks for getting the word out. All the best, Monte
Nice, Can u list some of your benefits?
I am 67 y.o. now and have taken cold showers every morning for the last 25 years. It has become such an integral part of my life that i don't notice the difference any more in daily life, except for the fact that i haven't been ill one day ever since.
Nice, did it help you with your Testosterone levels.
Im 17, and today i had my very first (intentionally) cold shower ever. Gotta say, it was quite the experience, and i likely will not be able to keep on a continuous streak, but fuck yeah am i going to do it. Wish me luck yall
I've been taking cold showers for 2 weeks. I have the knob set to where if I go any colder the water shuts off. One thing i have to say though is how i was able to get to that point wasn't by sheer determination, but by running a mile first and then taking the cold shower. It makes it far easier to get accustomed to the cold temperature when your body is warmed up. Now i am used to it and can take the cold showers without running. If you're having trouble starting this ritual, try some cardio first :)
Started taking cold showers April 1st every day since then and now look forward to them.👍
I have been taking cold showers for about 2 months straight, and I will continue to take them for the rest of my life.
beautiful
I too turn off the warm knob to all cold at the end....
Mother nature takes good care of us if we let her :)
yeh cuz no 1else wants to look after u cuz u gay
Yea, let’s forget diseases that kill us
@@skillfuldabest man created diseases not mother nature.
@@thewavychannel So malaria was created by man?
The Wavy Channel Bruh, what?
Having less showers is just important as the temperature of the shower. My skin looks and feels so much smoother and full of colour now.
Ok, I'm convinced. I'm gonna try it and will come back in a couple of weeks with an update. Wish me luck!
Инкубус How is it going? Are you still doing it?
@@elifauss7023 yeah, I'm doing it. Not many changes on my skin... maybe a little less oily? I'm not doing complete cold though, my doc said that would screw up my already screwed up neck muscles. Also don't do completely cold showers right after a workout when ur heart is racing and ur muscles are hot, that could cause a heart attack if you have some sort of a weakness that you don't know about. Other than that,it's great! I feel more refreshed. Also on psychological level it does a lot of great things to ya, even if it's just a placebo effect. My dude in the video was right about breathing, it taught me to breath better too. So even if I'm in a cold place I can somewhat control my comfort levels.
In Malaysia , and we always take cold shower (except the ones who use shower heater) and indeed cold shower is the best.
we in the west are too soft
The "Scottish shower" is more of a mental thing for me, overcoming something that is uncomfortable.
It's help me with disassociating with anything difficult and just embracing what needs to be done for the results that I want.
Just started cold showers, to boost my immune system, great video, have subscribed.
Rip kobe 😭❤
Millit Kapila :’(
Beautiful bro beautiful!! Cold showers are just truly a blessing!! Pure magic!!
couldn't agree more!
It’s actually in my Icelandic culture to have cold lake swims.
I sometimes wish I had Viking ancestry haha, would have been badass
Brown-Pride
I agree (ironically apart from the bias as I obviously love my culture more😂)! Every nation, their culture, ancestry, history, native people/demographic is something to be proud of, cherish, preserve and learn from, for the good and bad, to become better people.
I am glad you have pride in your ethnicity/nation, as I do in mine.
All should protect and preserve their own and others’ nation/ethnic native people. When we lose our unique identities, we lose ourselves and our roots, everything we represent, symbolized through our unique story-like biology (our phenotypes tell us exactly who we are, cultural origins, our history, ancestry, etc).😊
Brown-Pride
That doesn’t prove much about culture, more so historical (maybe modern) ethics, and thus actions. ‘Historical influence’ is a far too vague and subjective statement (and problematic if glorified) as ‘influence’ can be good or bad, or derived of good or bad actions. A majority of historical ‘influence’ is actually just the effect of invasion, war, empire, slavery and spread of demographics globally, thus the spread of ‘influence’. It isn’t a measure of anything except for immorality and disregard for other national and demographic individualism and respect, thus leading to the dissolve and dilutions to foreign ‘influence’.
The other end of ‘influence’ is rarer of history but simply, peacefully, foreign cultural adoption by choice, such as art, ideologies, symbolisms, foods, languages, inventions, etc, although this all generally turns into culture-less commodity and trade to benefit native lifestyles, or changes/adapts to reflect the culture of the new demographics and becomes a distinct part of their identity/individualism.
However, influence is also completely dependant/relevant to only specific geographical nations and people. India, for example, has no direct significance to my identity and nation, but might to the British in some way or another, little or largely.
Overall, ‘historical significance’ is far too specific, a trivial/problematic measurement and subjective in a wider context. I appreciate everyone equally, whether it is a small aboriginal tribe of Australia to a massive historically to modern dominant demographic such as the British.
As I said previously, all that matters is we learn from history and change for the preservation of all ethnic identities and demographics.
Brown-Pride
I never challenged subjectivity of historical influence to be due to a lack of proof...
Historical influence is incredibly insignificant with regards to the value and worth of culture for the exact reasons I mentioned of the reason ‘influence’ spreads and exists. It adds no value of a culture. No matter the global influence of a culture, being big or small, they are all worth existing and significant by demographical adherence.
India was a good place to exploit wealth, I am aware of that. Indians fought in WW2, I am aware of that. None of that historical significance/influence adds anything with regards to cultural ‘importance’ over others.
Cultural influence is incredibly subjective with regards to the ‘origin of all influence’. Indians are a collective group of ancient demographics/races of different nations and backgrounds, apart from the first settlers.
The whole of Scandinavia could subjectively be said to be influenced of each other, yet many of us also say we are completely unique of culture. Historical influence is subjective in this sense.
When you say ‘European’ imperialism I recommend you be specific to Britain, etc. My ancestors took no part in that side of that history, that’s like me calling the Islamic Turkish empire ‘Asian imperialism’... including every nation of Asia of it.
I have a lot of criticism for your ‘revenge’ sentence.
Everyone should be nationalist, not just you, as it is respect and acknowledgement for nation and demographic individuality and global diversity.
However, you are not a nationalist if you participate in empire, invasion, even in the case of ‘revenge’ as you call it, as you hold no value over others’ demographics and global diversity, you seek to destroy it through enforcing your identity’s prevail over others.
Brown-Pride
Vice versa.
Again, historical ‘influence’ is completely reliant upon the subjectivity of what people like about your culture. Not to mention it historically depended upon population, empire, invasion, war and migration to which India, regarding its history and being a mix of different demographics and backgrounds, had no shortage of during its lifetime in comparison to my nation. My nation had influence upon most of Germanic Anglo, Proper and Scandinavian European nations and demographics (to which you wouldn’t understand or know), with little to no contact upon further lands, so of course it would have little ‘influence’ in those regions (apart from perhaps a ‘Chinese whisper’ effect, cultural influence upon nations my people never contacted).
Sorry but you are completely conflating and polarizing historical contexts under an arbitrary argument, that India held significance outside its exploitation by the British.
How is saying ‘India was a good place to exploit wealth’ ignorant or dismissing of anything? The British siphoned trillions out of India, with no reinvestment back into India itself at the time.
To further my point that Britain seriously did not give a damn about India other than its economic potential, you keep mentioning ‘they fought in WW2’ yet the British were responsible for the genocide of 4.2 million deaths of the Indo-Aryan, Bengalis after they were stripped of all food supplies for the British troops in battle... After, Winston Churchill quoted “its their fault for breeding like rabbits”.
Like I said before with regards to historical influence, the ‘influence’ can be good or bad, or derived of good and bad actions. It has *nothing* to do with culture.
I almost feel like you do not understand what culture is or means...
In another perspective, if you believe your culture is so great and superior, why do you value it off of the approval of foreigners?
I value my culture off of the fact it is *my* identity, my history and ancestry, something uniquely bound to my demographic.
Indians are not ‘one race’, that makes no sense even if they were one dissolved/diluted identity. They have a few main racial lineages (and thus many branch races) within them, due to having native ethnic origins outside of India that brought their own cultures and identities with them, that still haven’t mixed demographics as of modern day.
Christianity is a theocratic ideology which influences cultural *values*... not culture.
You are correct however in that our true, original paganism, to which was suppressed under Christianity, held many cultural references and significance, to which many Icelanders, the Christians and atheists, in modern day, are returning to through a appreciation of our root values, history and culture.
Yes it does make you less of a nationalist.
Being a nationalist is about respecting and preserving national roots, culture, representation, demographics, not only of your own nation but others. It is reciprocated appreciation and acknowledgment for individuality, global diversity and all to prevail.
The action/imitation of what was done to your nation was done through a globalist mindset of cultural, demographic, national insignificance and disregard. The British diluted and dissolved Indian representation and identity, invaded, killed and then left them neglected and to suffer, like they had done nothing wrong (in fact many claim they overall helped India)...
Now you want to do the same to them? Hypocrite, you’d be no better than them by values and actions.
(A person’s value is completely subjective, you base a person’s value over purely cultural/demographic allegiance, that’s your choice but I think that is extremely ignorant and naive. You’d value an Indian rapist/pedophile over a good hearted/minded Japanese man for example...)
Anyway I don’t have time or can be bothered engaging in this discussion any longer so won’t be reading replies any further.
Bless.
Had cold showers for 3 years, winter included when I was 20. Was suffering from asthma. quite severe until I was 18 and then it got a little bit better. But after I started taking cold showers I can say I never got an asthma crisis again.
That's cool, gonna try that
@@lizzy4827 Be careful with the head though, I would advise lukewarm water because the hair takes more time to dry.
I have one massive beef with this. Define cold shower. Because "cold" water is very different in different places on Earth. In India it might be something like +20°C, in northern Finland 0-(+4)°C. Good luck with taking that shower every day.
If it feels cold to you, it's cold, voila.
When I first started showering with cold water the cold shocked me but then I continue to take cold showers I don’t get cold shocks anymore and more to enjoy shower with cold water becoz the weather is humid and stop turning on the water heater and showering cold water is a joy it heals many areas so I did just that 😊
Wim Hof!
Cold showers used to be a staple of elite private boys' schools in both the U.S. and Britain. I think they were felt to be vaguely 'character building.'
Dang, watching this today on January 26th 2020 and when you said Kobe Bryant I died a little 💔 RIP
Yes, I felt the same way when watching this video on January 27th 2020. Good advice about cold showers and well articulated. RIP Kobe.
Started cold showers about 2 weeks ago, when my family began Covid-19 self isolating. I actually did it spur of the moment, to break the monotony I was feeling. I only realized I had chances on to something special afterwards. Better than coffee! I have built myself up to 8 minutes, twice a day. So many benefits I am only just starting to notice. Folks do it! Start with 30 seconds at the end of your regular routine, and build up.
Few days ago I called you crossed eyed nerd or something similar. I took a cold shower and I'm sorry for that
After taking hydro therapy in my Physical Therapy program I've been doing these for years. Thanks for promoting...
"Even more effective than prescription antidepressants" ... that applies to just about everything ...
The cold showers don't really play such a dramatic role on my mentality now. I've just gotten used to it I suppose. It just feels nice and refreshing. In some way, I think and it triggers a sense that I am connecting back with nature more than anything else. Quite nice to think of different destinations whilst enjoying it.
I paused the video and went to take a cold shower, i just can’t tell you how happy and proud i got lol
JAAJAJAJAJ u the man!!
Good talk. You have a good way. Not as irritating as other presenters
not irritating like ur comment
@@epickittylover489 mine more constructive than your bizarre reply

I’m new to cold showers and the wim hof method and I myself laugh out loud when showering!
Cold shower day 1, let’s go boys
Hell on earth, right?
My skin and hair improved a lot since taking cold showers. My hair dermatitis is almost gone, and i don't feel cold as much as i used to. Now can go outside in summer clothes on a cold, windy winter day without feeling cold at all.
Cold showers without soap in the morning and warm showers at night to clean up
John Knight sounds reasonable.
Same here
Right on!! Thank you so much for this very informative message
sometimes when I take a cold shower it feels SOO GOOD at the end and I don't want to get out of it
Also now I take quicker showers and my skin doesn't get dried up from the heat
same. it really is like a drug. I will never in my life not take daily ice cold showers or cold submersion! Try facing the shower head and let the ice cold water hit the back of the top of your neck for about 2 minutes. You will uncontrollably just start smiling and giggling. Its INSANE! Literally!
Man, your videos are stellar.
Personal opinion accompanied by good research.
Very much appreciated as always dude.
cheers man
I noticed you got that lo-fi bumping in the background 🎶
I take cold showers now. For the first few weeks I would dread it but now my body’s use to it and is no longer a big shock. You feel alive !!! Won’t look back
lol leave a bit of distance between you and the camera, you are looking directly into my soul.
I love the cold spritzers at the end of my shower! Great listening to you. Sleeping on the floor sounds really interesting, too.
Ok it's off to the showers boys! Wait wait my bad that didn't sound right. All joking aside great info brother.
Ive been doing it every day for a week... Wooohooo x makes u feel alive ✌🏼
Trying it - i contorted like possessed...
But will continue to do it...
I do this for a few month now and now i love them. It's the best start for the day
We do the Same!! and we absolutely love it!

I always take Cold shower in even in fever 💕💕
Love cold showers. Slowly the fiancee is embracing the idea. She runs warm like i do. Clearer skin, better hair, more positive putlook and more libido confirmed. Not a placebo. These are things she brought to my attention. Keep up the great work
When you write "runs warm" are you referring to warm natured? If so, then I am, as well. I like the room cool as I get hot easily.
@@josephdockemeyer4807 Yes indeed
Take if cold showers is so good, I took one this morning and I feel amazing. Only if I knew about this earlier, but let’s see if it helps me longer term 🚿
Massive respect for the effort gone into the research for the benefits of cold showers. My guy you've done the research
James Bond and Wolverine- no need to have gone any further...
I have heard a ton of praise about this practice, but have yet to try it. But from other experiences of mine, I can perhaps understand why this would reap several psychological benefits. I am guessing the shock of being exposed to cold water, and the mental endurance to prevail through it, releases the same endorphins as two other hobbies of mine that follow the same line of reasoning: running and weight lifting. There are points in my run where I push myself so hard I almost fall on my knees gasping for air, and points in my weight lifting where I push myself so hard I almost faint from the pain. Both of these experiences create a heavy sense of euphoria afterwards, and always keep me coming back for more. Its the way humans are programmed, to survive through pain or a traumatic experience and prevail just makes you inherently joyful and proud.
Question: is it better to go for a morning run first thing after you wake up then take a cold shower or to take a cold shower immediately after you open your eyes in the morning? LIKED.
Hussein Al-Hashimi take a cold shower after workout, it helps alot with muscle recovery and I would suggest you to do weight training, running produces stress hormone which reduces your levels of testosterone and weight training increases testosterone. Want to get lean the right way? Do HIIT High Intensity Interval Training it increases testosterone and HGH up to 200%.
I might be a little psycho, but I take one cold shower immediately after waking, and another after the workout
@@MrChillaa1 maybe after a run, but after a workout for muscle growth, it's actually counter-productive. Cold showers reduce inflammation which is actually what happens to your muscles after you lift, and is the reason your body would rebuild the muscle bigger and stronger. Don't take cold showers after a workout. It will decrease the stimulus for hypertrophy.
@@detectivespoonan7603 microwave the arms?
@John Rawford i call that bullsht. Source??
I did this because i had no choice. My heater burst so i had to turn it off and i couldnt afford fixing it. I had to get a new tank etc. So i resorted to cold showers for a long time. During winter too lol. It was rough but overall i think i felt better. Fresher daily, better mental state
Well Sinbad I learnt cold showers from my mother and it creates always a feeling of well-being... Nice to see you do this aswell....🧐🙏🏾

Hi, love your stuff, came across you about a week ago. I too have been following the cold shower routine, for probably about 3 years now, i agree with you, it changes your life. Keep up the good work and more power to you spreading this good message (you know the one im talking about, I too learned about this from a book by Gandhi). Peace to you friend.
Thanks for sharing such valuable information. I really love them.
thank you Monojit ! :)

Wtf cold showers increase what? Testosterone??? Lmaoo let's goo
Thanks to Win Hof and many other videos like yours I have started cold showers + deep breathing exercises to help with insomnia as a result of chronic stuffiness. I breathe through my mouth so at night it is especially difficult to fall into a deep sleep. I already feel a difference. I welcome any other suggestions that does not involve surgery. Thanks so much for the info, so well articulated and thorough.
great video
Every time I would shampoo my hair it would result in running nose throughout the day. The moment I've started bathing with cold showers, I haven't faced running nose issues in 2 months! This works and it is not the only positive. Trust me, this will change your life :)
I would die at winters
Nice review of a great practice, people who know me think I’m crazy for doing them. I end every shower with one for a min of 2 minutes
