A pause to breathe
The calm after the storm
Between the cold and the heat, the circuit includes a breathing pause: a few minutes for your body to find its rhythm again.
What happens in your body
Breathing slowly, especially with long exhalations, activates the parasympathetic nervous system: your pulse drops and the calm that follows thermal contrast comes more easily.
