In this episode, you will learn about the cold water swim cure and the amazing benefits of swimming in cold water. We talk about how Mark - himself a doctor by profession - found out about the benefits of cold water twenty years ago and what he has learned ever since. We talk about hypothermia, stress, depression, anxiety and what all of these have to do with cold water. Or rather what cold water can do to prevent and also cure. We talk about physiological and mental benefits of cold water swims and we discuss selected success stories that will blow your mind. You will also learn how to prepare yourself for cold water swims and why you don’t have to be extreme in order to reap the benefits discussed.

Make sure to let me know your thoughts and join the conversation.
