Episode notes
Autumn Clean Prevents Winter Trapped Allergens
- An autumn deep clean matters because open-summer windows let pollen and allergens settle, then winter hunkering traps them inside.
- Removing summer-settled dust, mold and allergens before closing windows reduces indoor exposure months later.
Anna's First Ice Bath Journey In Bali
- Anna Lorck tried hot and cold plunge therapy in Bali, starting with feet then full submersion; she progressed from 30 seconds to 3–5 minutes in one day.
- The cycle of hot then cold produced strong endorphin/dopamine effects and clarity that hooked her.
Use Breathwork To Do Cold Plunges
- Pair cold plunge exposure with breathwork training to manage the stress of immersion and extend tolerance.
- Anna trained under Johannes Egberts and now runs mobile ice-bath sessions, teaching breathing techniques first.
