I've been saving in a file all the replies of my

personal interest, and I have these valuable notes

written by Sadhant.

 

"The benefits of cold showers are as follows:

 

They open up the capillaries, flush the internal

organs, prevent the body from developing an extra

layer of fat, cause the body to eliminate toxins &

poisins, strengthen the mucous membranes, keep the

skin young & shining, help liver function, reduce

nervousness, and build immunity to colds, flu, etc.

Gururattan has also mentioned that it is good for

the aura.

 

Also, a cold shower acts as a tonic(a stimulant for

better health, improved blood circulation, and better

muscle tone), and stimulates the glandular system,

speeds up metabolism, and Strengthens the entire

nervous system.

 

Throughout history, hydrotherapy with cold water has

been useful for treating shock, fever, cancer, skin

diseases, infections (including abcesses, carbuncles,

and prostatitis) and hemorrhages (including

cerebral hemorrhages). It is useful in chronic

conditions where body functions are below normal, for

example: diabetes, obesity, hypothyroid conditions,

and low blood pressure.

 

More benefits for women: corrects unbalanced menses,

prevent early menopause, help with skin problems,

maintain your natural glow!

 

One caution: if you have a circulatory disease such as

Reynaud's syndrome, cold showers (or baths) are

forbidden.

 

A mild alternative (or introduction) is a cold sponge

bath - you might also use a loofah or rough cotton

washcloth. Expose one section of yourself at a time

and scrub until the skin is red with new blood, and

follow this by drying briskly. Repeat for each part

of the body.

 

More notes: it is best to prepare by massaging

yourself with almond or sesame oil.

Women should wear shorts that cover about half the

thigh to protect the thigh bone from sudden

temperature changes (the thigh regulates calcium and

magnesium production & balance). Men should wear

underwear or shorts to protect the testicles. Don't

stand still - dance - move - breathe deeply! Move in

and out of the water, rubbing your skin vigorously.

 

If you are very cold sensitive, try these tips.

Pre-heat the massage oil. Have a cup of hot herbal

tea. Do 26 frogs, run in place for 3 minutes, and do

2 minutes of leg lifts (lying on the back, hand under

hips, inhale and lift the legs to 90 degrees, exhale

back down)."

 

This group it's a wonderful gift, full of ligth.
