How Cold Plunging Builds Mental Resilience & Energy with Kris Rice

In this episode of Mind Over Matter, host Sana explores the power of cold immersion therapy with guest Kris Rice, founder of ChilPod. Kris never imagined she’d become an advocate for cold therapy, especially since she hated cold water. But after years of prioritizing her daughter’s mental health, she realized she had been neglecting her own. She was searching for something quick, effective, and transformative—which led her to a simple 2-minute cold plunge practice that changed everything.

Kris shares the science behind cold immersion, its impact on mental resilience, anxiety, focus, and stress management, and why high achievers swear by it. Whether you’re a skeptic or a believer, this episode will give you insights into how embracing discomfort can rewire your mind and body for success.
