Summer Cold Plunge Challenge

Altered States Wellness combines cold therapy with community giving in a 30-day wellness challenge, inspired by the founder’s personal loss.

DALLAS, TX, UNITED STATES, June 2, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- As summer temperatures rise in Texas, a local wellness studio is encouraging the community to do the opposite—by voluntarily plunging into 39-degree water. Beginning June 15, Altered States Wellness will launch its Summer Cold Plunge Challenge, a 30-day wellness initiative that invites participants to complete 10 cold plunges while raising awareness and funds for the Alzheimer’s Association.

The concept blends cutting-edge wellness trends with a personal story that’s driving the movement.

A Personal Cause, A Public Challenge
The challenge was inspired by co-founder Kyle Struebing’s late mother, who passed away from early-onset Alzheimer’s. The loss led Kyle and his wife JoJo to explore tools for brain health and longevity—ultimately building a wellness business grounded in evidence-based therapies and community support.

“This challenge isn’t just about cold water—it’s about resilience, brain health, and turning pain into purpose,” said JoJo Struebing, co-founder of Altered States Wellness. “We’ve seen firsthand how devastating Alzheimer’s can be. If we can raise awareness and make a small difference while helping people feel better in the process, it’s worth every chilly second.”

The Science Behind the Soak
While cold plunging may appear to be a passing trend, research suggests otherwise. Studies from institutions like the University of Portsmouth have shown that brief cold-water immersion can boost dopamine levels by up to 250%, support nervous system regulation, and reduce inflammation. Other benefits linked to cold exposure include improved sleep, mental clarity, and stress resilience—key pillars for long-term brain and body health.

Cold therapy has seen a dramatic rise in popularity among athletes, biohackers, and wellness seekers nationwide. Altered States Wellness aims to make the experience accessible for all, offering guided plunges in private rooms designed to calm the senses and support mental restoration.

How the Challenge Works
Participants can register online or in person and complete 10 plunges within 30 days. The challenge includes:

10 cold plunge sessions to use at any Altered States Wellness location

An in-studio leaderboard and motivational texts

Charitable contributions to the Alzheimer’s Association

Optional upgrades including sauna sessions and red light therapy for contrast benefits

The studio emphasizes that no prior experience is necessary. Staff provide guidance, breathing techniques, and encouragement, particularly for those new to cold exposure.

A Growing Movement in Wellness and Longevity
Cold plunging is just one piece of a broader longevity and wellness movement that’s gaining momentum in the U.S. According to the Global Wellness Institute, the wellness economy is projected to reach $7 trillion by 2025, with longevity-focused services playing a growing role.

“People are looking for non-pharmaceutical ways to manage stress, anxiety, and cognitive health,” said Struebing. “Cold therapy is one of the most powerful tools we’ve found—and when it’s paired with community and purpose, it becomes transformational.”

Media, Community, and Public Involvement
Local residents, wellness influencers, and members of the press are invited to experience the plunge firsthand. Interviews with the founders and participants are available upon request, and media passes can be arranged for in-studio visits.

The Cold Plunge Challenge will run from June 15 through July 15 at Altered States Wellness studios in located in Coppell, TX and Richardson, TX.

ESOMAR announces major update to the ICC/ESOMAR International Code to reflect AI and emerging technology

New version strengthens ethical standards for the global research and data analytics communityOur goal was to ensure the Code continues to protect individuals, promote transparency, and support the responsible innovation that is essential to our profession.”— Joaquim Bretcha, Director General of ESOMARAMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS, June 25, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- ESOMAR, the global community for data, research, and insights, in collaboration with the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), has announced a significant update to the ICC/ESOMAR International Code on Market, Opinion and Social Research and Data Analytics. The revised 2025 Code reflects transformative changes in the data and research landscape, including the rise of artificial intelligence, the increased use of synthetic data, and the evolving roles of researchers, data scientists, and technology providers.The update, formally adopted at ESOMAR’s Annual General Meeting earlier this month and validated by the ICC Executive Board, marks the most substantial revision to the Code in nearly a decade. Developed by a joint ICC/ESOMAR Code Revision Team, the update draws on extensive consultations with global legal experts, privacy advocates, national associations, and ESOMAR members worldwide. Maintaining trust across multi-country research projects requires clear obligations for all involved, and reinforces the critical role of self-regulation in upholding public confidence and industry integrity.“The revised Code is a response to the complex realities of today’s data environment, where the disintermediation of the value change, and AI and emerging technologies are rapidly reshaping how research is conducted,” said Joaquim Bretcha, Director General of ESOMAR. “Our goal was to ensure the Code continues to protect individuals, promote transparency, and support the responsible innovation that is essential to our profession.”Key updates in the 2025 revision include:- New principles addressing AI and synthetic data: Clear definitions and responsibilities around AI, synthetic data, and synthetic personas, with a new emphasis on transparency and human oversight.- Greater clarity around primary and secondary data use: Revised articles guide practitioners on consent, notification, and legal requirements, especially when using immersive or biometric data collection methods.- Expanded guidance on data protection and subcontracting: The Code addresses the fragmentation of the research process, clarifying the responsibilities of clients, data scientists, technology providers, and subcontractors.- Stronger provisions for inclusivity and fairness: Researchers are required to design research that reflects the populations studied and identify potential sources of bias.- Emphasis on duty of care: A new principle mandates respect for participants and outlines protocols for vulnerable individuals and emergency situations.First established in 1948 and jointly adopted with the ICC since 1977, the ICC/ESOMAR International Code serves as a global framework for ethical self-regulation in research and analytics. It is endorsed by over 60 associations in more than 50 countries and is mandatory for all ESOMAR members.The full updated Code and supporting materials, including a summary of changes, are available at https://esomar.org/code-and-guidelines/icc-esomar-code. Translations will be made available in multiple languages to support global adoption.About ESOMARSince 1947, ESOMAR has been the global hub for research, insights, and analytics.

Polskie przedsiębiorstwa otwarte na transformację w kierunku gospodarki obiegu zamkniętego. Nowa mapa drogowa mogłaby w tym pomóc

Do 2030 roku z gospodarki o obiegu zamkniętym ma pochodzić co czwarty surowiec. Aby przyspieszyć ten proces, w Polsce potrzeba nowej, międzysektorowej Mapy Drogowej dla Gospodarki o Obiegu Zamkniętym – wskazywali eksperci w trakcie Polish Circular Forum. Obecny dokument nie spełnia już swojej roli i wymaga aktualizacji. Na braku jasnych przepisów i systemu wsparcia najbardziej cierpią przede wszystkim małe i średnie przedsiębiorstwa. – Z naszych badań wynika, że tylko 3–3,5 proc. firm z sektora MŚP jest świadomych i przygotowanych do transformacji – ocenia Agnieszka Zdanowicz, wiceprezes Klastra Gospodarki Cyrkularnej i Recyklingu.

Wspólna polityka rolna do deregulacji. Trwają prace nad uproszczeniami dla rolników

Prawie 1,6 mld euro – tyle mają wynieść roczne oszczędności dla rolników po uproszczeniu wspólnej polityki rolnej. Zaproponowany w maju przez Komisję Europejską pakiet zmian zakłada redukcję części obowiązków administracyjnych, które dziś spoczywają na rolnikach ubiegających się o unijne wsparcie. Szczególnie dotyczy to płatności dla drobnych rolników. Jak podkreślają eksperci, wszelkie zmiany, które będą działać na rzecz konkurencyjności unijnego rolnictwa, są wskazane, ale przy uwzględnieniu wysokiego poziomu bezpieczeństwa żywności.

W rosyjskiej niewoli może przebywać kilkadziesiąt tysięcy Ukraińców. Napięta sytuacja geopolityczna sprzyja Rosji

W rosyjskiej niewoli przebywa około 10 tys. obywateli Ukrainy, z czego ponad 8 tys. to żołnierze. Łącznie jednak może ich być nawet kilkukrotnie więcej. ONZ podaje, że ponad 95 proc. ukraińskich jeńców wojennych jest poddawanych torturom. – Pogarszająca się sytuacja międzynarodowego bezpieczeństwa i wzrost wpływów do budżetu Federacji Rosyjskiej ze względu na wzrost cen ropy mogą się negatywnie odbić na planowanych wymianach jeńców – ocenia Michał Dworczyk, wiceprzewodniczący Komisji Bezpieczeństwa i Obrony w Parlamencie Europejskim.
