What is it?

Cold plunging, or immersing the body in cold water (typically 50°F/10°C or colder), has gained popularity for its numerous health benefits. Some of the reported benefits include:

    • Reduced inflammation and muscle recovery
    • Improved circulation
    • Boosted immune function
    • Enhanced mental clarity and focus
    • Increased endorphins and mood elevation
    • Improved stress resilience
    • Better sleep quality
    • Metabolism boost

While cold plunging offers many benefits, it’s important to ease into it gradually, especially for those with cardiovascular conditions or other health concerns, and to ensure the body is properly warmed afterward. Please consult your doctor before participating.

You’re invited to practice with us weekly in person in Port Colborne, Ontario or live online on Zoom.

Insight Meditation, Wednesdays 7pm ET (90 mins), with Heather Fenton — Start and/or maintain a regular meditation practice. Each week, guided meditations are combined with instructions for bringing mindfulness into daily living. This meditation class is offered freely.
