  • Wim Hof (@Iceman_Hof) is a Dutch world record holder, adventurer and daredevil, commonly nicknamed “The Iceman” for his ability to withstand extreme cold. Wim is an autodidact and taught himself how to control his heart rate, breathing and blood circulation. All these functions are regulated by the autonomic nervous system.
    He is the creator of the Wim Hof Method and holds more than 20 world records. Wim is an outlier of outliers, as he routinely asks scientists to scrutinize and validate his feats. We dig into all this and more.

    I listen to the majority of Tim's podcasts and I almost didn't finish listening through this one and it might have ended up being the biggest mistake of my life. I was thinking to myself "This dude seems a bit arrogant". Looking back at it I probably stumbled across that episode on a bad day, projecting my shortcomings on Wim. However, after a month or so with this episode sitting in my podcast player's playlist i finally got through it, and immediately gave it another listen in one sitting, which fully woke my curiosity about Wim's teachings, and since that day my life has taken a completely new trajectory. Thank you Tim, Wim and all your other guests for everything you bring to this world.

      I think it is because of our life long programming that the cold will make us sick and only sick, that there is nothing healthy about sitting in water that is almost freezing over, I've noticed that the colder the water the better the relaxation afterwards.
      So glad we are doing this on a global scale to become healthy strong and happy. Breathing exercises should be taught from first graders to the end graduation. That is how we were once living in full purpose alive and vibrant, for thousands of years expanding, growing and evolving ❤

    NOW I can understand Tim's obsession with the cold stuff. Wim is awesome, the neurology seems legit for switching to parasympathetic side and thus enjoy life more with all the benefits. Personally I've been a shallow breather excluding childhood fascination for holding my breath and now having so much fun experimenting with this long lost hobby with some feelings of increasing vitality!

    also 1 thing that wim hof is very powerful with his immune system is because of his 1 day a meal per day. this habit of eating is also another thing he should explain to others. this eating habit help a lot when it comes to immune system. you halt your engine for a while, analyse what's the problem, make the maintenance, and start again. plus his powerful breathing method, i think many micro bac virus have no chance at all.

    I'm a new subscriber and I love your vids so so much. I've been interested in the Wim Hof method but I have never found a clear explanation of how to do the exercises ??? I know you breathe in 30 times and hold it but do you have to do this while your in the shower as well in order to not feel the cold? Or do you do it before? Do you think about being warm while your in the shower and just meditate on the idea of heat? Im very confused but I really want to try this!

    • @antoniodias1925

    Mandela wasn't all he was cracked up to be by the MSM :
    " Everyone thought Mandela was a known entity, but he turns out to have led a double life, at least for a time. By day, he was or pretended to be a moderate democrat, fighting to free his people in the name of values all humans held sacred. But by night he donned the cloak and dagger and became a leader of a fanatical sect known for its attachment to the totalitarian Soviet ideal.
    When Ellis first aired this theory, it read like a Cold War thriller, but when Mandela died last month, the African National Congress and the SACP both issued statements confirming that it was true: at the time of his arrest in 1962, Nelson Mandela was a member of the SACP’s innermost central committee."

    I love the wim hof method, and have been using it for about 3 months now, but as an avid pursuer of truth, listening to Wim talk about decalcifying the Pineal gland, and how the Pineal gland controlled everything else really bothered me. Thats not what the Pineal gland is for, and it bothers me to hear one of my inspirations so taken in and convinced by this ridiculous pseudoscience. With how many real world effects he has proven his program to have, I dont know why he has to walk this line of woo-woo hippy shit.

      That OneGuy do we fully understand the pineal gland? It creates melatonin and it’s believed that it releases DMT during the dream state. I don’t think we fully understand it’s functioning fully yet. More scientific studies need to be done, however I don’t think we should discredit Wim for his claim. People have been able to produce psychedelic trips through his breathing methods.
