We’d do just about anything to find that one special “cure-all” that has the power to make us feel happier and more energized, while also boosting our metabolism.

So, why don’t more of us take morning showers on a regular basis?

With all the incredible benefits that a quick A.M. shower has do offer, it’s amazing that so many of us aren’t taking them.

Still thinking of sticking to your nighttime showers? Here are just a few reasons why you might want to reconsider:

  1. They make you feel more attractive: In a survey performed by Herbal Essences, more than two-thirds of the female participants said they felt a lot more relaxed right after a morning shower, while over half said they actually felt prettier and more attractive.
  2. They might help you lose weight: Cold showers never sound very appealing, but what if we told you that taking one could actually help you shed a few pounds? Well, according to a recent Scandinavian study, it can! The researchers found that bodies exposed to cold temperatures increase the metabolic rate of brown fat, which can help you lose up to 9 pounds each year!
  3. They will help you wake up: While showering in general will make you feel more refreshed, a cold shower will really do the trick when you need a pick-me-up! Think about it, what will get you moving faster: freezing water or a cup of coffee? ##MN_RESP##
  4. They will make your skin glow: If you’re prone to oily skin, nothing will help keep a greasy forehead at bay faster than a morning shower. You’re basically revitalizing your skin before you even leave the house!
  5. They can make you feel happier: According to researchers at the Department of Radiation Oncology at Virginia Commonwealth University School of Medicine, a freezing cold shower stimulates the brain’s blue spot, which can help ease the symptoms of depression.
