Key takeaways from deliberate cold exposure and how to warm up afterwards
If you're feeling good, do deliberate cold exposure and don't worry too much about warming up afterwards. However, it's important not to stay really cold for more than 10-30 minutes and to bundle up or put on clothes after exposure. If you're not feeling great, warm up well afterwards, possibly by drinking hot tea or fluids. If you're feeling malaise or rundown, avoid any stressful or challenging activities and focus on slowing down circulation. Resting when sick is beneficial as it allows the body to allocate its resources to recovering from the infection.
