benefits include
  • Muscle Relaxation and Tension Relief: Hot showers can help relax muscles and reduce body tension, contributing to a feeling of comfort and well-being, especially after a long day or strenuous activity.

  • Improved Sleep: Taking a hot shower before bed can help you fall asleep faster by dilating blood vessels, which helps the body dissipate heat and lower core temperature.

  • Skin Hydration and Freshness: Warm water can result in fresher skin that feels more hydrated.

  • Evaporative Cooling: While it might seem counterintuitive, the heat from a hot shower can actually help cool your body. As the water evaporates from your skin, it creates a cooling effect.

  • Increased Blood Circulation: Hot water opens up pores and increases blood circulation, which helps to transport soreness-inducing lactic acid away from tired muscles.

  • Stress Relief: Many people find that taking a hot bath or shower is a relaxing ritual that helps to soak away the day's worries and boost their mood.

  • Nasal Decongestant: Hot showers can act as a nasal decongestant, helping to clear congestion.

tired of people trying to gaslight me into thinking cold showers are better when they aren’t!

nothing better than taking a hot ass shower to burn all the oil and pollutants off my skin from a day of exploring
