cold plunge

Are you ready to take the plunge?
In addition to the many physical health benefits of ice plunging, Lizzy’s approach is derived from building mental resilience. If you can tough it out for the full 2-minutes in 0-3 degree water, you really can do anything!
What to expect:
You and Lizzy will start off by co-regulating through breath. Once you are ready, you are invited to step in and get right into a seated position in the tub, fully immersing yourself up to your neck. You may want to get out (fight/flight mode) but Lizzy’s guidance will encourage, motivate and have you stepping into your power, bringing you to your 2-minute goal mark!

Additional Cold Plunging Facts
