An Early Morning NM Cold Plunge

PUBLISHED: 9/25/2025


Water is an essential part of my life, and spending time in or around natural bodies of water really cleanses my soul. Recently I spent time in Cloudcroft, NM and was able to swim in a waterfall I randomly read about (I don’t remember the name - sorry).

It was a cloudy, cool morning and there was no one at the waterfall which made the experience all the better. Just me, the lovely nature around me, and my love for water.

I spent about 40 minutes soaking on and off in the cold water, and I mean cold! It was great being able to ground myself and be completely absorbed in the present moment. I highly recommend taking the time to venture out and ground yourself in nature, whatever that may look like for you. And cold plunges in natural bodies of water is a must, and waterfalls are a plus!!

Thanks for reading! 💛
