While some people challenge themselves to swim once a year in ‘polar bear’ events, Cesar Andrade swims in cold water every day at Rockaway Beach in New York City.

Andrade swims in cold water to improve his physical and mental health. Swimming in cold water removes those feelings, and gives him the confidence to overcome fear, he told me.

“I want to feel harmony with the universe… and feel alive,” he said. “self-doubt is our worst enemy.”
