After years of regularly practicing cold exposure, I unexpectedly found myself taking a break when my pond became too warm for cold plunging. During a particularly stressful season, I came down with an illness and began wondering how much I had been relying on cold exposure—not only for stress management, but perhaps for supporting my immune system as well.
That experience inspired me to welcome back Professor Thomas Seager, PhD, engineer, researcher, educator, and founder of Morozko Forge, for Episode #58 of the Essential Therapies Podcast.
Together, we explore the science and practical applications of cold exposure, including:
• Stress management and resilience
• Immunity and recovery
• Heart Rate Variability (HRV)
• Mood and energy
• Vitamin D and seasonal health
• Metabolic health and adaptation
• Practical considerations for beginners
• Why cold exposure is more than just a trend
Whether you’re new to cold therapy or have years of experience, this conversation offers thoughtful insights, scientific perspectives, and practical takeaways for optimizing health and resilience.
