Yesterday (I wrote this text on the 18th of April, 2024), while doing street photography, I felt the power of cold.
I went straight out of my office job to do street photography. I wore the www.adammazek.com t-shirt. It was 6 degrees Celsius (42.8 degrees Fahrenheit), and I did not have a winter cap and gloves. When I felt the chilling coldness, I became happy and powerful. I do not have to mention that during weeks earlier, it was almost 30 degrees Celsius (86 degrees Fahrenheit) in Poland. That’s why I felt pure joy when I realized I could cool down my body efficiently, and the winter of 2023/2024 was not over yet. While writing all these things, I realized it’s been over two and a half years since I started to walk in summer clothes in frigid temperatures while doing street photography.
I hope I will be able to do it in the following decades.
Luckily, I do not have to wait for autumn and winter to feel the power of cold. Freezing showers provide me with energy practically daily. I won’t stop taking it until the end of my life. There is no better way to boost your energy level than exposing your body to coldness, my Dear Friend. That’s the power of cold. If you doubt it, you should read one of Wim Hof’s books about exposing one’s body to cold. Luckily, the next will also be quite cold. I will use them again to feel coldness in my body.
Undoubtedly, I feel more robust and powerful after exposing my body to frigid temperatures. It is not a coincidence that professional football clubs use cryotherapy to help professional football players recover faster from hard matches and training. There is no better way to feel alive than to feel the power of cold. Okay, maybe only working out and fasting can be another powerful tool to feel like a demigod.
