OK, hear me out before you write this article off. I am the last person in the world who would have thought I’d be encouraging others to submerge themselves into cold water since I’m always cold! I hate being cold and cold water is a big fat ‘no’ for me -...

Dear Janine,
I saw your story on Instagram (I love watching your daily stories btw), taking questions and hope you can perhaps help me.
