Episode Notes

The Blue Room podcast founders Sabra Lane and Julia Mansour talk about how to prepare for swimming in cold water. They offer their tips, tricks and advice. For some, swimming in cold water is not just a winter pastime, it's something they do year-round. How to prepare, what to bring with you before and after you swim. Note: cold water swimming is not for everyone, as with other activities, there's a risk of injury and it's not suitable for everyone.

The book referenced in this episode is Winter Swimming; The Nordic Way Towards a healthier and happier Life by Dr Susanna Søberg (publisher MacLehose Press).
