    Good advice there. I think the key there is to start out not with ice cold
    water, but simply adjust the temperature of the water to a comfortable cool,
    and then gradually week by week continue to adjust the temperature little by
    little. In this manner you give your body time to gradually adjust over time.
    What you will find by doing this is that at some point in the future very cold
    water doesn't quite affect you in the same manner that it does now.

    This is the manner in which I had to do this as very cold water on my back
    would send me jumping through the roof...Lol. Now I can turn the cold up quite
    a bit and it's not quite as bad as it use to be.

    In Light,
    Ron

    Dear Ben,

    Sounds like, just like myself, you are just quite sensitive to
    changes in temperature. I would reccommend you to warm up your
    showers just enough for them to stop causing your nose to run. After
    a short while, once you feel that your body has adjusted to that
    temperature, start *gradually* lowering it (not throughout one
    shower, but from day to day) until you achieve an appropriate cold
    temperature.
    It is always better to start lifting weights with light objects and
    slowly work up to heavy ones than to immediately start with heavy
    ones - from personal experience (not with weight lifting :), the
    second way is a lot slower, and the results are for more fragile.

    Good luck!
    Daniel
