Schule in Deutschland 
Nach den Sommerferien beginnt in den unterschiedlichen deutschen Bundesländern die Schule zu unterschiedlichen Zeiten. Im Bundesland Sachsen ist der Ferienanfang früh im August, in Bayern erst Mitte September. Der Hauptgrund ist, dass man die deutschen Straßen nicht durch den Urlaubsverkehr überlasten möchte. Im deutschen Bildungssystem gibt es natürlich noch andere Unterschiede: Zum Beispiel hat jedes Bundesland eigene Abiturprüfungen, eigene Lehrpläne, eigene Schulbücher und so weiter. Allerdings beklagen sich Lehrer in jedem Bundesland über die gleichen Probleme: Die Klassen sind zu groß, es gibt immer mehr problematische Schüler und die digitale Ausstattung ist nicht gut. Und fast alle deutschen Schüler finden, die Schule ist nur ein notwendiges Übel.

Top 10: Best Mexican Beaches

It might sound like the worst start to your day — you get into the shower, and it's ice cold. But while you might not enjoy it, a cold shower could actually be good for your health.

Spending time in cold water is not a new idea — the Ancient Greeks used cold water as a form of therapy as early as 3,500 BC. And things like cold water swims and ice baths have become quite popular around the world.

Experts believe there are a few reasons cold showers could be good for us.

Corey Simon, a doctor at Duke School of Medicine in the US, told CNN that having one or two cold showers a week helps him be more mentally present.

He believes the reason for this is that he has to mentally prepare himself for something stressful: the cold water. But once he's in it, he feels like he's in control of that stressor.

In fact, a 2022 study found that participants who showered for a minute in 10- to 14-degree water every day for two weeks had lower stress levels than a control group.

Cold showers could also be good for our immune system. In a study done in the Netherlands in 2016, people who spent 30 to 90 seconds in a cold shower took 29% fewer sick days from work.

Cold water has also been found to improve circulation, and can reduce muscle pain after a workout. Research suggests that taking a cold shower often could increase your metabolism too.

But experts say it's important to speak to your doctor before taking cold showers often, because it could be dangerous — especially for those with certain conditions, like heart or circulatory problems.
