I used hotter water, and let myself turn the temperature up habitually and spend a longer time again, before turning it all the way down for the 30 seconds, which rise to 1 minute tomorrow I think. I didn't shiver this time.
I used to suppress my shivers, and that seemed to help me develop better cold tolerance, in the past. Something else I could eventually try.
I also breathed deeply, not for the protocol but to ease the shock sensation while not feeling strong. I did it a little too much and my face got tingly, and having read the warning not to do the more extreme breathing exercise at the same time helped me not push myself too far and keep the experience seeming reasonable.
