Wellness routines come in all shapes and sizes—whether it’s daily supplements, meditation, or a rigorous workout. For Carson Daly, however, the secret to feeling his best is something a bit chillier. In a recent interview with Page Six at the Project Healthy Minds Gala, the 51-year-old Today Show co-host revealed that the key to his wellness regimen is none other than daily cold plunges.

“One year ago, I was at this event at maybe one of the lower points in my mental health,” he told the outlet at the Thursday, October 10 event. “Physically and mentally, I was a wreck, and I thought, ‘Next year I want to get better.'”

To turn things around, Daly committed to daily cold plunges. “I’ve cold-plunged every day for a year,” he continued. “I have a home cold plunge. 40 degrees, literally two minutes every day. It’s really hard to do, and it turns out doing hard things is good for you.”

Daly isn’t the only one reaping the benefits of cold plunging. As NewBeauty previously learned from Repêchage founder and CEO Lydia Sarfati and Mohonk Mountain House spa director Margaret Lora, cold plunging is known to alleviate muscle aches, reduce inflammation, aid in weight loss, treat pain, boost endorphins, and stimulate blood flow. And it’s only gaining popularity: According to Yelp’s 2024 Beauty & Lifestyle Trend Report, searches for cold plunge therapy skyrocketed by an impressive 521 percent from 2022 to 2023.

Although Daly didn’t reveal the exact cold plunge he has at home, there are plenty of options to explore—from affordable Amazon finds to more luxurious setups like the Plunge. If bringing one into your home feels like an impossible commitment, you can still enjoy the benefits by visiting a spa near you, where cold plunges have become a popular wellness offering.
