You will learn to meet cold water with steady breath and clear intention. Theo Grant guides you through the real physiology: how your skin burns, your lungs tighten, and then your body quiets into something like peace. You will start with a cold tap at your kitchen sink, practice the exhale that steadies panic, and progress to finding your first outdoor spot with honest, practical steps. The Two-Minute Rule and dressing for the swim you are actually doing keep you safe without romance or fear.
