Day 5 | River Thames Cold Therapy | Raising Awareness for Mental Health + Steem
This is the full video for Day 5 of my River Thames Cold Therapy + some after thoughts!
The clip of the jump is already posted on Twitter and Instagram.

Watch the video to see me do a random shriek and jump into the river, not a belly flop or faceplant as some seem to imply :P and also for my after vlog ;)
You can read the back story of why I'm doing this on my post a few days ago: https://steemit.com/dtube/@redrica/fhbajd67
But the gist is: I am jumping into the river for cold therapy, a new commitment I'm adding into my Mental Health practice. I am posting clips of myself doing this and posting it on Social Media to help raise awareness for Mental Health, and also Steem and Crypto.
Soon I will be taking suggestions and donations in Crypto!
The plan is:
Every day at approximately 8am GMT, I will be posting a clip of me jumping into River Thames on Twitter and Instagram
What I wear and do before I jump in, will differ every day, and will most likely be a bit kooky.
I will usually only post a clip on Twitter, and will post the full video on Dtube and Youtube.
ANY SUPPORT APPRECIATED!
Let me know if you have any fun suggestions or thoughts!
And feel free to send me lots of encouragement, it helps a lot :)
Much Love from Red

Saw your ReTweet and now I’m gonna start taking cold showers from today
They suck. And doing things that suck everyday will help build your resilience.
Cold exposure has multiple health benefits
They allow you to practice getting control of your mind
Wow respect!!! Let me know how it goes for you, and check the Wim Hof Method's way of doing it ;)
Cold therapy is really good for overall body inflammation. I jumped into lake michigan when the water was 30 degrees a bit after a hip surgery. It was better than any nsaid or pain medication.

Wow that's cool! I'm still getting to know all the health benefits of cold therapy.. I've been doing it as part of my mental health practice, and really enjoying it so far. Hope your hip's better now :)
