G'day,
I took a 50 degree Fahrenheit shower in Ottawa (Canada) over Christmas when
it was -4 degree F (-20 Celsius) and it was far from what I would call
warm...I even went back and tried a couple more times just to be
sure......It was certainly invigorating....perhaps its my antipodean
upbringing in Bendigo where on a cold night only gets down to about 23
degrees F. I prefer my poison hot....Yin:Yang - its what makes the world go
round!
All the best,
Darren Doherty

Cold showers are tolerable. I have been taking them outdoors all winter
long.
When the ambient temperature is 40 degrees or so then 50 degree water
feels warm, really.
That is a cool way to take a shower and save energy; good for mind and
body.
And you have a great view of the sky and yard too. Truly inspiring.
