Get Cold To Stay Warm!

 

WINTER IS COMING! If you’re freaking out about the pending cold the Army has some advice. It’s the same way they train themselves to get used to cold weather: DON’T GET WARM!

 

What? Yes! Don’t turn up the thermostat right away or wear a ton of clothes and climb under blanket mountain.  The faster you allow your body to adapt to cold weather the less it’ll haunt your nightmares.  Wear a light jacket and maybe even take a cooler shower. (Don’t do anything crazy or dangerous though- just cool-ER.) Your blood vessels won’t constrict as much which keeps you from shivering like crazy and the cold won’t bother you as much. You’ll adjust more quickly!

Good luck!
