"Wim Hof if you're really into it 
Also amazing for the immune system. Especially paired with a sauna. Take some doing though if you are a cold arse like me  "
I've only done a little of the breathing stuff (when we were getting over Covid) and didn't get too extreme with it.
I have cold showers every morning though which are particularly cold at this time of the year 
A sauna would be nice  |

I've been doing the Wim Hof method, and similar pranayama techniques for About 5 years now, very rarely get ill, never get a cold, not caught covid. Nasal breathing is definitely the way to go. |

I do it after gym sesh. Sauna as hot as I can stand for 15 mins, freezing cold shower for as long as I can stay under it. Usually a minute or two,then back in sauna. Repeat depending on how much time I have that day.
Get those cold and heat shock proteins flowing. Feel great afterwards. |

I like the sound of that. Although you should aim for more than a minute or two in the shower  |

I haven't tried one of those. I do love a plunge pool though and wild swimming (but not round these parts after reading about the sewage releases  ) |
