“…he [Scipio] opposed “destruction of Carthage, Rome’s imperial rival at that time, and resisted Cato’s proposal for its demolition.

Cold plunge a few times a week - it's great. Usually water is around 37-45. 3 minute cycles with sauna use. Sense of euphoria is intense. Wim Hof breathing I've dabbled in off and on, interesting stuff.
Alan, this is one of the most important observations I’ve seen this week: “being chewed up and spit out by the institution they risked their lives for day in and day out.” With a great way of putting it, too. Beautiful writing.

I started cold dipping late last fall through winter and spring in lakes and oceans
20 minutes is no problem even in ice and snow
It is similar to the participation in Martial Arts
The mental anticipation and satisfaction is rewarding.
I highly recommend recommend this habit
Great article
