| | | BRRRR | | TikTok Made Me Try Cold-Plunging & I'm So Glad It Did | Have you heard about “cold-plunging”? It’s exactly what it sounds like: dunking yourself in freezing water. It’s all the rage on TikTok, says Samm Davidson: “I saw people boasting about the benefits of their #dailydip on my FYP (the ‘for you page,’ for those more mature than I), saying they felt a real sense of accomplishment after doing something so tough. I couldn’t help but get curious.” So she decided to try it out. Fortunately, she lives in New England with easy access to frigid water, and a friend recently took up the practice: “We met in the beach parking lot on a Friday morning, and it was obvious that I was a newbie. She was fully prepared with a warm, easily removable plunge parka and a pair of neoprene shoes, while I arrived in an old fleece bathrobe and a pair of Crocs. This wasn’t a fashion moment, and I couldn’t let my lack of accessories derail me.” And believe it or not, she was glad she gave it a try. Can you picture yourself giving it a try?

| | | | | TELL ALL | | From The Confessional: ‘I Didn’t Sleep Train And Regret It’ | Remember how sleep used to be, before you had kids? Honestly, at this point, I barely do. Perhaps you feel the same! Lots of folks in the Scary Mommy Confessional certainly do, and that’s the theme of today’s roundup. “I kind of resent my H for being a heavy enough sleeper to miss midnight wake ups,” admits one reader; fortunately, another has a genius solution: “I wear earplugs so my hubby does all the MOTN wake ups.” If you’ve got any other brilliant hacks to share with the rest of us, the link here.
