Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- When my body screams alarm I almost always cave and bail, in the cold and everywhere else, and I want to prove to myself in a small contained way that I can choose discomfort and stay steady through it instead of always flinching away.
- I get fired up and do a big dramatic session with ice baths once, feel amazing, and then never do it again
- My feed is full of people swearing this fixed everything that was wrong with them and made them practically invincible, and I honestly can’t tell what’s real and what’s wishful
- The blast of cold makes me gasp and tense up and I want out the second it hits, but I’ve heard that learning to stay calm and breathe through it is the whole point
- The second things get tense I snap into the same move every time without choosing it
