I used to have cold water bath in the morning. This could make me more refreshed and energetic to begin a new day.

Before going to bed I prefer warm water shower. The massaging effect of the warm shower really makes me relaxed and comfy.

After enjoying the warm water bath normally I could be able to sleep more peacefully.

Hi there. I most definetly prefer the hot showers, one in the mornings and one in the evenings...


myLot reputation of 99/100. lkbooi (9346)   ranked 14 out of 26,919 in people  5 years ago

I suppose the place you live is rather cold so you like to take hot showers all the time.:)


myLot reputation of 98/100. Nardz13 (4317)   ranked 573 out of 26,919 in people  5 years ago

Hey. The weather in New Zealand is not too bad, it can get cold and it can get hot sometimes, but not as hot as other countries get though... Thats just me, Im always down for hot showers, even in summer lol...


myLot reputation of 99/100. lkbooi (9346)   ranked 14 out of 26,919 in people  5 years ago

Hi Nardz, I envy the place where you live. In my impression I always associate your country with fresh cool air, the snowy mountains and vast greenish meadow. In my country Malaysia, nearly all year round the daytime weather is quite hot but at the night time or rainy day the water is rather cold. So the people here used to take cool shower during daytime.

I like warm showers of cold. for the main reason is that when I take cool showers I get goosebumps and the whole shower is awkward. The heat makes people tired, well most, and therefore helps me sleep. PersonaI think that cold showers are for people a really bad hang-over.


myLot reputation of 99/100. lkbooi (9346)   ranked 14 out of 26,919 in people  5 years ago

I suppose it is true that cold shower could really make a person to get goose bumps, worst still if it makes the person shivered. As the heat could make you tired it is advisable not to take warm shower too long in the bathroom so as to avoid falling asleep in it lol...


myLot reputation of 81/100. Wario_1 (746)   ranked 1,828 out of 26,919 in people  5 years ago

That could be true, i remember almost falling asleep during warm baths, so there is a possibility to fall asleep during a warm shower. I could not, because i don't like getting water over my face, feels like its hard to breath when it happens.


myLot reputation of 99/100. lkbooi (9346)   ranked 14 out of 26,919 in people  5 years ago

Hi Wario_1, I totally agree with you as once I did experience this while having warm water shower in a hotel bath room. The water of the shower there was quite powerful. I did feel like suffocated when heavy water was pouring on my face.

yes it is so true! Warm water bath will relax all the tension on your muscle. Everytime i feel tired after a long day in office I will have a warm tend to hot shower and let it shower my whole body for 10 minutes then I'll swap to cold water suddenly for 1-2 minute You may jump at first but resist it for 20-30 seconds and you will get used to it. afterwards, I will switch to warm water and taking bath (using shampoo or soap). Believe me you will have deep sleep and wonderful feeling in the morning!
My other suggestion is to soak your feet (or your whole body if possible) on the warm tend to hot water with 5 big spoonful of salt (raw salt prefferable) afterward hit the shower with warm water

PS: People with High Blood Pressure should seeking medical advice prior doing this bath ( involving Salt one)


myLot reputation of 99/100. lkbooi (9346)   ranked 14 out of 26,919 in people  5 years ago

Thanks for your valuable information as how to perform a healthy shower bath.
It is really wonderful to take a cool shower immediately after a hot one. This reminds me of the way we used to make good steel by pouring cold water to glowing iron. lol...
I believe the magic effect of this treatment and I will try it later on.
I did have the experience of soaking feet in warm water but instead of using salt I used herbs. I felt rather comfy and pleasant with this treatment.

i prefer warm water i hate the cold water!!!!
i cna't able to do shower if not


myLot reputation of 99/100. lkbooi (9346)   ranked 14 out of 26,919 in people  5 years ago

I believe it is normal for people in temperate countries like Italy to take warm shower rather than the cold one as the temperatures there are rather low as compared with my tropical country here.
As for me I couldn’t take cold water bath at all when I visited a foreign country during a winter season few years ago.

Hello ikbooi!(",)

I would prefer cold shower everyday because its very refreshing and cool. I also found out that cold shower has lot's of benefits to the body such as the following:

In an article from http://www.earthclinic.com/Remedies/showers.html the following benefits of cold water were noted

* Brings blood to the capillaries, therefore increasing circulation throughout the body.

* Cleans the circulatory system.

* Reduces blood pressure on internal organs.

* Provides flushing for the organs and provides a new supply of blood.

* Strengthens the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems.

* Contracts the muscles to eliminate toxins and poisonous wastes.

* Strengthens the mucous membranes, which help resist hay fever, allergies, colds, coughs.

Let's enjoy a cold shower everyday!(",)


myLot reputation of 99/100. lkbooi (9346)   ranked 14 out of 26,919 in people  5 years ago

Hi lani0529, thanks for supplying me the valuable information which could give us many benefits for our health. It is really great to take cold water shower. I enjoy taking it everyday especially in a warm weather.


myLot reputation of 69/100. madlees (1119)   ranked 5,679 out of 26,919 in people  4 years ago

I too think like that lani, I prefer to take cold water bath daily. If I have hot or luke warm water bath, I don't feel as if I had bathed at all. I prefer the zing in the cold water even during the winter times as much as I can. Snce Iam getting older for that I am thinking of changing for my health sake. I do not want to get sick...


myLot reputation of 99/100. lkbooi (9346)   ranked 14 out of 26,919 in people  4 years ago

Hi madlees, I also encourage people to take cold water shower as it could give all the advantages as mentioned by our friend, lani. As long as it is bearable I do always try to take cold water shower. What you said is true. Age is another factor to be considered for health sick when having cold water shower or bath.

Welcome to mylot, foxcandy, I hope you are patient and enthusiastic to stay on at mylot for long. I noticed that your posting number still remained the same after five days and I supposed that you were busy with some other business.

Yeah, you are a all rounder of warm shower. Hope you continue enjoying your way of bathing:)

Hi klusik, I believe you are still fresh here as you might have posted your response as a comment so that your response was placed under foxcandy’s response (the above) and not under this discussion directly. I propose whenever you want to any discussion you need to click on respond to this discussion which is found on the lower right portion of the discussion you intended to reply.

That is true, the difference in temperature after taking warm shower as compared with the room temperature could make us feel rather uneasy. So it is better to take cold water bath and we don't have to worry about the coolness later on.

Happy postings and good luck.
