But after years of supporting her daughter’s mental health, she finally recognized she had been ignoring her own. She knew what she should be doing—meditation, exercise, mindfulness—but there was never enough time in the day.Desperate for something quick but effective, she secretly bought a horse trough and set up a makeshift cold plunge in her backyard. She didn’t tell anyone—what if she hated it? Spoiler alert—two minutes a day transformed everything. Her anxiety calmed, her energy returned, and she felt better than she could ever remember.That DIY horse trough led to a realization—nothing in the cold plunge industry was designed with the human body in mind. So she created ChillPod, a luxury cold immersion system built for high-achievers seeking a fast, effective way to reset—without adding more to their already full plates.Now, Kris helps people transform their energy, build strength and resilience, and feel their best with simple, science-backed strategies that actually fit into real life.RESOURCEShttps://www.instagram.com/krisricewellnesshttps://www.linkedin.com/in/kris-rice-chillpod/https://www.thechillpod.co/THE JŌRNI RESOURCEShttps://thejornipodcast.com for show noteshttps://thejorniblog.com for more holistic healing and mental health resourceshttps://thejorni.comLIKED THIS EPISODE?Share this episode on social media and leave us a short reviewhttps://thejornipodcast.com/episode-285-cold-therapy-with-kris-rice
