BRAIN FREEASE BASICS

Service Description

BRAIN FREEASE BASICS is for folks who already have all the knowledge and experience they need to participate in Deliberate Cold Water Exposure (DCWE). They know all the benefits and just want the basic education on how to use our facilities, become 'FREEASERS' (club members), and maximize the benefits of DCWE without it being a terrible exercise in endurance. This class will: Give an overview of the neuroscience of DCWE; Teach participants how to leverage Mindset, Breathing Techniques, & Autonomic Nervous System functions to adapt to cold water and benefit from its use; Train participants to successfully adapt to cold water during a guided/supervised 3-minute dip in one of our 'FREEASE PODS'; and Teach & Practice various methods for warming up following DCWE. Upon completion of this class, participants will be authorized to purchase memberships to the 'FREEASER' club at an additional cost and get individual access credentials to use the FREEASE PAD facilities. (See MEMBERS section for more information) BEFORE CLASS DAY: Please print out the BRAIN FREEASE BASICS GUIDE and bring it with you to class. Arrive 10 minutes early and be prepared to stay the full 2 hours. Wear a bathing suit under your clothes or an appropriate cover-up. Finish your daily hot/warm shower with cold water everyday between now and then (build up a little each day from 30 seconds to 2 minutes and try to learn to enjoy it!) Consult with your physician before engaging in this or any activity that induces physical and/or psychological stress. PARTICIPANTS ASSUME ALL RISK AND LIABILITY- BY REGISTERING FOR THIS CLASS YOU ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR OWN HEALTH, SAFETY, AND WELLBEING.
