2022-03-26: [ ] Missed day 6 of week 1. I don't remember this day much at all at time of writing.

2021-03-27 0645 ET: [X] Week 1 Day 7 Shower 7 of Wim Hof Protocol. Performed indoors.

It's hard to engage this today, but I did. I was going to try the breathing, but haven't yet.

I took a shorter, cooler (kind of warm-hot) shower. It was hard to resist the urge to raise the temperature of the water, which sits in counterpoint to my habit through my teens and 20s of always turning the temperature colder and defaulting to showers without any hot water at all.

It was harder to stand under the cold water for 30 seconds, and I shivered with only my arms getting wet. Afterward, it's much less invigorating, to only have my arms gotten cold. Motion toward looking up that horse stance to have confidence with shivering.

The situation can seem harder from how my psychology engages my autonomic nervous system, but it makes sense to have had a little less capacity since the shower overall was colder. My previous long hot showers gave much more capacity. Plan is to still work it.
