Uncomfortable Situations
If you haven't been to Texas in the winter then just know that since we have high humidity the temp can feel extremely colder than it actually is. This past weekend there were once again weather reports about ice and what not. So I said perfect! This would give me the opportunity to not only wake up at a time I'd rather be sleep but also to expose my body to the elements.
The rush you get from exposing your body to cold temperatures is hard to describe without feeling it for yourself. It's a surge of energy. Your blood starts rushing through your body in order to try to heat your body up. The key is to control your breathing and take deep breaths. You should try to suck in as much oxygen as possible. I promise it helps. I've been taking cold showers for over a year now and actually going outside in these kinds of temps is just another way for me to put myself in uncomfortable situations. It's all mental. You are much bigger than the cold.Would you do this challenge?
@humanearl,
Now your body is accepting this challenge after a series of cold showers! But unfortunately mine is not like that :D
Cheers~

You are a courageous soul @humanearl! And I am sure you are quite right; being in the cold strengthens the body — it's much like the Tibetan monks who sit and meditate in the snow, high in the Himalayas. They don't get cold, and they hardly ever get ill, either.
The subtext in your message, for me, is that there were no promises offered that life is going to be easy or comfortable so we have to be ready to take things as they come for us.
Bright Blessings!

The way you read it is right. We are not entitled to a "good" life. This is why I train my mind to deal with not only life's struggles now but the times we are headed in.

Cold can kill
With extreme cold weather comes health hazards like increased risk of heart attacks, frostbite to mention a few.
Cold can heal
Just playing on my keypads though...☺️. Nice post @humanearl

I'm fan of Game of Thrones and I'll name you King of the North. Haha. Hello Jon Snow. Conquering the cold is one of the most terrifying things for me. Haha. I, too, live in a cold temperature place here in the Philippines and every morning is a challenge for me. But I overcame it by taking a bath with no heater. My body get used to the cold. And I barely feel it while taking a bath. Hahaha. Nice post brother. Thanks for the support man. I will be posting pizza tomorrow. Haha. Hope you check it out. Thank you!

@humanreal, I saw you uploaded Dtube video of Texas winter season. Its rough winds here. Cold temperature very difficult to face. I have never experience about winter season's temperature coz my country has only summer. But I can give some suggestions for solve this cold condition. I saw from you, you are more healthy and fit , the more easily your body can cope with these stresses. I think a good technique to stay warm in a cold climate is by the use of the inner furnace to generate heat from within.This is your body's way of telling you it needs more fuel to keep warm. If you can put up with constantly feeling cold, it's a possible way of losing weight. Probably cold weather can be increase heart-attack risky. When we are cold your body reduces the circulation to the extremities and skin surface. This increases the internal blood pressure. Also you can do fast walking or jogging in fact. It increase inside of body temperature.

I'm from Texas and really hate the cold weather. I can't stand even getting out of the shower when its cold. I don't know if you know who the life coach Tony Robbins is, but he has a morning routine where he sits in an extra hot sauna for 5 minutes and then dips himself into a pool of 18 degree water. Supposedly it a finnish tradition that helps keep your heart healthy.

I know Tony. I don't listen to him though. Only heard of soundbites. The alternating between hot and cold is another method too.

This is a strong video
You have learned to be intolerant of the cold. This can be compared to know what? This can be compared to the fact that under the cold you mean your life's problems and difficulties. But you show yourself and all of us that you can get used to all life's difficulties! Every problem can be overcome. It is necessary to take the small step to meet your place and not be afraid of anything!
Thank you for motivating me with this! I have very difficult times now

Internally our body maintain a certain temperature and if cold is being resisted by body upto certain extent it is good for health as it will make the pumping of blood more so as to maintain the body temperature but again this theory hold good upto a certain limit.

After #coldshower now cold in a different form is making you immune.
I tried cold shower many times in past after reading your blog.
But I believe whatever be the case, waking up early in the morning gives a different form of energy to our body altogether.
Thank you and Have a great day.

I also like to watch you from day to day tempering yourself, temper your body and your mind. You're getting stronger. The main thing in the life of any person is movement, and this movement must be forward. Even if it is slow - you must continue.
You and America are now quite cold, this winter surprised you very much. But we in the Slavic countries - it was always very cold and there was a lot of snow. Now we have little snow and the winter has become very warm. What does this tell us? The fact that the world is changing climatic zones. This is bad.
But tempering yourself to the cold is good, your body must get used to the changes and inconvenience. This is useful.

Wow I didn't know it was getting warmer over there. I think there's much evidence for global climate change.
I also love what you wrote in your language. It's Russian right?

Yes, the first line is written in Russian
I thus expressed my emotions from watching your video, I liked it
before winter was much colder here. In the new year (December 31), snow always rejoiced - now the last 2 or 3 years we do not have snow for the new year. Snow appeared relatively recently - less than a month ago. But this happens cyclically, the temperature rises and the snow melts. The day passes and the temperature drops - the snow falls back.
