| Watsashower User ID: 26289251 11/18/2012 03:04 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I share a daily bath with my wife as the council have restricted our water supply to a dribble because of overdue accounts. Luckily the bath is only small but still takes three hours to fill. Forgotten to say, water is life and comes freely to the just and unjust in equal measure. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 55149 Everyday. Too much? No offense, but yes. IMO There are absolutely no better conditioners for the human skin and hair than our natural oils. Problem with showering daily (or twice) is that your skin is always bare to the elements, because you washed away it's protection. I shower once every two or three days, depending on how oily or grimy I'm feeling (I never stink). By the time I shower, I can see all the pollutants from the last couple of days going down the drain. I also try to never shower at the beginning of the day, instead I Usually plan it for when I'm in the house for the rest of the night so that my skin will have a good layer of oil on it by the next day before I expose it to the elements and pollutants again. Your morning showers are allowing all the griminess of the world to go straight into your skin rather than get caught up in our naturally protecting oils, where soap and water might not be able to reach them to take them away. You just have to find a nice balance between overcleaning yourself and outright letting yourself go. Stink is bad, slightly oily skin and hair isn't. I dated an overshowerer once, and the smell of shampoo and soap was nice at first, but I actually found myself missing their natural human musk before long... That's not why it ended BTW, but just it didn't help. |

I wash everything that I bring inside, from outside. I'm super aware of contaminates from Fukushima. If I don't do these steps, I'll feel like I'm not doing everything I can to limit my exposures to toxins and more. Although I'm showering more (getting some toxins there) I'm saving my skin from contaminates elsewhere, saving internal organs etc. |
| zenobiaphobia Dancing to the beat of a skinless drum User ID: 27968504 11/18/2012 03:55 AM ![]() Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Some people have diving reflex problems in the shower. Just depends on how sensitive they are. This can kill you. [link to www.divingmedicine.info] "This reflex is present to some extent in humans. When a human is immersed in cold water there is vagal stimulation which slows the heart, as well as sympathetic nervous stimulation which constricts blood vessels to the skin and other organs. Because the reflex is only incompletely developed in man, there is often a rise in blood pressure but minimal or no fall in cardiac output. This increases, rather than reduces, the work of the heart. The result of this process in man is increased work of the heart as well as the development of cardiac arrhythmias."

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 27505470 11/18/2012 06:43 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Showering with lifeless,chemically or electrically polluted water does tend to drain the life-force from the person showering,so I suggest one short daily shower.There are ways of re-energizing water through alternative technological means,such as spiralling the water and with coded crystals.I certainly seem to notice the difference between energized and non-energized water,I hope it's not a mere placebo-effect. Quoting: Common Sense 1595 So I suppose you prefer to bath in Ganges. This river is full ofs life (well, technically is full of deads as well) but lets focus only on the bacteriological side. And I never felt like after vampires bite when I left the shower. So maybe I use the drained energy force of previous people to regenerate my own spiritual batteries. Yes ... I know the water has to go throughout water treatment plant but still has to contain at least some residues of energy. |
