Biohack/ Jedi Training: Cold Thermogenisis

Be cold! 
Have you seen anyone from a cold climate come to San Diego in the winter? They are easy to spot, usually sporting shorts and tank tops while locals are bundled up. You have probably heard of acclimatization before but do you know what is going on within the cells?  You see nature has a way of providing mitochondrial benefits to those who do not access to regular sunlight. The cold weather actually trains the mitochondria to become more efficient heat generators. Efficient mitochondria are essential for energy production and fat burning. Think of the goosebumps you get as a mitochondrial workout. When the cold no longer bothers you, you have become efficient at heat production, which is energy production which is metabolism, fat burning.  Now imagine practicing this with sunlight harvesting at the same time.
The goal is to work up to ice baths. I admit this technique has been the toughest. This how I eased into it. If I can do it, then anyone can.
- If starting in  Winter or Fall no heater or robe and getting ready in shorts only. This was sufficient to get some shivering and goosebumps going.

-Finish off showers with cold water rinse, when ready next:

-Entire shower taken in cold water, when ready next:

-Submerge face in ice water, this is recommended protocol from Dr. Kruse: The safest way to adapt to is to submerge your face first into water in a sink where you add ice to with a cooking thermometer.  Wait until the water is between 50-55 degrees, and enter face first and see how long you can tolerate it using a time piece.  Record the time.  For the next two weeks work your way up until you need to take a breath for O2.

 If you have taken ice baths before and can handle it, you want to start there. The rest of us will have to work our way there.

What is happening: heat expands and cold contracts. So if cells are smaller, it will take less time for the signals to get to there destination. Making for faster and more efficient reactions.

Cold temperatures and strong electric currents are the only two things in the universe that increase magnetic flux. Increasing the efficiency of signalling and cellular processes. 

It seems brutal at first, but remember: you are not stressing your body, you are stimulating its quantum heat machines (mitochondria)  to work better by releasing heat.  Heat is infrared light.

As of now Sept. 2015, I have been doing the face dunks inconsistently over last couple of months. Energizing for sure, if your feeling a little sluggish or drowsy definitely give it a try. I have worked up to a minute, but then some days you try and do less. Supposedly saturated fats beforehand helps out duration. Clients that have tried so far have all reported positive feedback, whether with aches or pains, or with energy. This is looking to be a "mandatory" technique to use daily, make it a habit.
