      I prefer to take hot showers to relive muscle tention producing dopamine in my brain then slowly lowering it to cold water

      So you just turn It down to cold or do you just let the water go down to cold?

      I've heard that cold showers can help train executive functioning and impulsive behavior. I usually blast myself with cold water for the last minute of my shower. It might be defeating to purpose.

      Yes. As you adjust to the cold, the sympathetic nervous system slows down as the parasympathetic system takes over, directly affecting the Vagus nerve.
