Is this as simple as taking a hot shower - and ending with cold water? If it's more complicated than that, yes, i'm interested in reading more about it.

… conclude the usual shower activities with a cool-down-- there's a lot of research about how effective it is to health and wellbeing (written about here) and, it's easy because, it's not the cold so much as it is the change from hot to cold. So, it doesn't have to be an icy-cold shower to effect a positive new outlook on the day.

If interested, I'll fetch the link.
