Trying an OST: Cold Showers

 I chose Lawrence's OST because it tied into my own and I felt it was another thing I could do to help with my cause of mitigating the effects of climate change. On his blog, https://ost5shower.wordpress.com, Lawrence talked about how taking cold showers spanning only five minutes could significantly help reduce our water usage. 

I initially really related to what he wrote during the trial run of his OST because I too tend to win fake arguments or contemplate the meaning of life when in the shower. Additionally, because it's gotten so much colder outside, I found that the temperature to be too low unless I was mentally prepared. I also found that taking cold showers was easiest after doing cardio (aka walking up the stairs). Lawrence also briefly mentioned some benefits he noticed, but I want to add that during my experience, cold showers have made my hair healthier and are known to boost metabolism. 

Overall, I think this was a great small thing because it helps to reduce water waste with added benefits.
