It’s exactly what it sounds like: dunking yourself in freezing water. It’s all the rage on TikTok, says Samm Davidson: “I saw people boasting about the benefits of their [#dailydip]( on my FYP (the ‘for you page,’ for those more mature than I), saying they felt a real sense of accomplishment after doing something so tough. I couldn’t help but get curious.” So she decided to try it out. Fortunately, she lives in New England with easy access to frigid water, and a friend recently took up the practice: “We met in the beach parking lot on a Friday morning, and it was obvious that I was a newbie. She was fully prepared with a warm, easily removable [plunge parka]( and a pair of [neoprene shoes]( while I arrived in an old fleece bathrobe and a pair of Crocs.
