cold dip
Chilly water immersion
Cold dip is a brief immersion in cold water—a lake, ocean, or ice bath—taken deliberately for invigoration or health benefits.
The practice has gained popularity alongside claims about metabolism, inflammation, and mental clarity: I started every morning with a cold dip in the river.
Distinguished from a polar plunge by being a regular habit rather than a one-time stunt.
