Despite dry cold and a few frosty nights this winter has been rather mild, hasn’t it? Naturally, some of you would vehemently disagree saying it’s been absolutely freezing and that you can’t wait for the spring to come. Whatever your view on the matter, winter has its benefits and cold may bring long-lasting benefits. In recent years I have become acquainted with wintery chill and tested the way my body and mind react to low temperatures. Surprisingly, as I became more accepting of the cold, I gained a more positive outlook on life as well as a noticeable boost in my energy levels and general condition. Over the past 3 years I haven’t caught a single cold, suffered from a sore throat or sinusitis, which plagued my health for many years before.
This winter again, I’m trying to take advantage of colder months and purposely choose slightly lighter wear whenever I’m out in the cold and even won’t shy away from taking a cold shower now and again. How about you? What are your winter habits? Do you think the cold could work for you too? The chances are you may not know the answer even though you think you do. 😊
