When most of us shower, we make the water a bit steamy. But you could be losing out on health benefits by cranking the temperature up on your showers. Here are five benefits you can experience from taking a cold shower.

Benefits of Taking a Cold Shower

It helps you remain calm under pressure: You’ve probably heard the term hot-headed before. If that’s you, take a cool shower. Cold water can literally cool you down and make you more resilient to cracking under pressure.
It breaks you out of your comfort zone: When you wake up, you’re tired, warm, and cozy. Taking a cold shower can kickstart your energy levels. If you’re brave enough to dip in cold water first thing in the morning, then you will probably find that you become more fearless and courageous in other areas of your life too.
