Go swimming on the winter solstice 2023 to overcome your cowardice

Mondo Psychological Updated on 2024-01-30

December 22 is the winter solstice, I have eaten dumplings at noon, and I should go winter swimming in the afternoon.

I wrote the article I was going to write before 4 p.m. and sent it out via the internet. So, turn off the computer and get ready to go swimming. Bring all the swimming trunks and swimming caps you need to bring, and ride your bike to the bus transfer to lock the bus and take the bus to go swimming.

The four wheels of the bus were faster than the two wheels of my bicycle, and I soon arrived at Yulong Bay at the junction of urban and rural areas in Xinxiang. After I went through the swimming formalities at the front desk, I quickly went to the changing room to change my clothes and went to the outdoor hot spring pool for a while. Moreover, it is my habit of swimming in winter. Then, you will go to the pool to do jumping, kicking, squatting and chest expansion exercises, and when your body temperature has dropped down, you will put on your swimming cap and swimming goggles and go into the water.

After entering the pool, I felt that the water temperature was better than yesterday, and I didn't feel cold. When I was at home, I thought about taking a short swim if the pool was cold on the winter solstice. Since the water temperature is okay, swim another 600 meters.

My swimming habits are unhurried, not very fast, but not too slow. In winter, swimming only in the breaststroke position is a kind of spiritual enjoyment. You don't need to be so impatient, just let your body move without being fast or slow. In this way, the blood supply function of the heart and lungs can be slowly increased, which is conducive to physical and mental health. We don't participate in swimming competitions, we just challenge ourselves with our bodies and perseverance, and we just exercise our will to endure the cold. Only by overcoming one's own cowardice can one bravely swim in the groundwater.

In fact, as long as you keep swimming, there is nothing to be afraid of, cold is relative, not absolute. Only by challenging one's own limits can one exercise a strong will and perseverance. Everyone's strong will and perseverance are not innate, and can only be tempered after a long period of work. It's not okay to be afraid of this or that.

Swimming 600 meters back and forth is actually very fast, only taking more than 20 minutes. As long as you insist on stretching your body to swim, the cold is not terrible, and the body will gradually feel not cold, and the blood in the body will be more comfortable to provide sufficient blood supply for your exercise, and it will be a little ruddy. Before I knew it, I swam enough for 600 meters, and I didn't feel like it, so I swam 100 meters more.

After swimming, soaking in the hot springs is a very pleasant spiritual enjoyment. Moreover, not only is the outdoor air good;Also, you can see the snow in winter. It must be said that this is an extremely wonderful spiritual pleasure. What's even more interesting is that you can also talk and laugh with your friends in the hot spring pool, which makes people feel that they are not fairies but they are better than fairies.

For me, it is not only necessary to soak in the hot springs, but also to sit by the pool and do some stretching exercises with the help of the heat of the hot spring pool. If you feel a little cold, then go back to the pool and soak in the hot springs for a while. Then, sit by the pool and continue to do the gym, which is much better than doing the gym at home.

When you're done, you can go back to the bathhouse to take a shower, change your clothes and take the bus home. Taking the bus to go swimming, this is the latest thing for me, I used to go by bicycle. As long as the weather warms up and it is no longer -10 degrees Celsius, I will continue to go swimming on my bike. Because, cycling is also a good way to exercise. (Guo Xilin).
