And what if I told you that you could do it with 3 step method that is simple, can be done at home, and that anyone can do? On this episode of Growth to Freedom you're going to learn that and a whole lot more as I speak with Wim Hof. Wim is known as “The Iceman” because of the many world records he has broken in the realm of extreme cold endurance. He has hiked Mount Everest in nothing but his shorts and has taught many others to do similar feats. How is it possible? Wim has discovered a 3 step method that enables you to take control of your mindset and inner physiology to accomplish incredible things both physically and psychologically. Join me for this fascinating conversation on this episode of Growth to Freedom. When Wim begin breaking World Records for extreme cold endurance he got the attention of the scientific community. Many prominent scientists approached him and wanted to look into his method and validate what he had been teaching was true. The result: a scientifically proven 3 step method that you can apply to shield disease, overcome depression and anxiety, destroy migraine headaches, and increase your personal performance.

[1:49:23] What Wim suggests you should check out in his training.   In this episode… Few people have established such a place of reverence in their particular field as Wim Hoff has. Wim is a very unorthodox example of a man who took his beliefs seriously and has fought to prove them to be true. Wim is affectionately known as “The Ice Man” because of his extreme endurance feats in cold temperatures. Wim has climbed Mt. Everest and Mt. Kilimanjaro among others, in nothing but his shorts. But that’s not all. He’s also trained others to do the same thing in relatively short periods of time, in an effort to prove that the human brain and body are capable of so much more than we have believed in the past.   Wim is a native of the Netherlands and is not University trained in science or conditioned professionally to be an endurance athlete. Even so, he’s been able to accomplish some of the most spectacular and truly unbelievable feats in the world. He first came into contact with exposure to cold when he was 17 years old and in his words, “The cold became my teacher.” Somehow that experience put him in touch with his body in new ways and he’s been experimenting ever since.   What motivates a man to do the kinds of things Wim does? He says it’s for two reasons: #1 - to bring health, happiness, and strength to all the children of the world. He truly believes that the breathing and conditioning methods he’s discovered can not only bring healing to the body but also peace to the soul. And #2 - to gain attention for the research and beliefs he’s pioneering in regard to how breathing and pH levels in the body impact sickness and health, endurance, and the ability to perform at a much higher level mentally.   Some of the most incredible results of Wim’s experiments is the effect his breathing techniques have had on sickness. In one instance, after training a group of people with his breathing practices, they were intentionally subjected to a particular strain of bacteria and their bodies were able to fight it off with incredible strength. Wim attributes the result to the higher pH levels of their bodies because of the breathing techniques they’d been practicing.   In Wim Hoff’s own life, his breathing techniques and mindset practices enabled him to push beyond the grief that threatened to consume him when his wife was killed in an accident. Wim is convinced that the mind is much more powerful that we have believed and that the right personal practices and disciplines can eliminate things like stress, worry, grief, and even physical sickness.   This is a very interesting, unbelievable conversation that I know you’ll enjoy.

He finished the marathon in 5 hours and 25 minutes. In 2011, Hof also ran a full marathon in the Namib Desert without water. So how does the Iceman do it? Wim describes his ability to withstand extreme cold temperatures as being able to "turn his own thermostat up" by using his mind. And in today's audio episode, we're going to delve into his tips, tricks and biohacks to conquer the cold and get quantum leaps in performance, including. -How Wim uses the science of breathing to control his body temperature and resistance to the cold... -Wim's meditation technique... -How Wi ran full marathon in the desert with no water... -Whether cold thermogenesis give some kind of adaptation to perform better in heat... -Why cold doesn't really make you sick, and the true effects on the immune system... -Why Wim took a group of thrombosis patients into the icy Sweden wilderness... -How you can learn Wim's secret techniques from the Iceman himself... ----------------------------------------- Wim's Breathing Technique ...from : The Method 1) Get comfortable and close your eyes Sit in a meditation posture, whatever is most comfortable for you. Make sure you can expand your lungs freely without feeling any constriction. It is recommended to do this practice right after waking up since your stomach is still empty. 2) Warm Up Inhale deeply. Really draw the breath in until you feel a slight pressure from inside your chest on your solar plexus. Hold this for a moment and then exhale completely. Push the air out as much as you can. Hold this for a moment. Repeat this warm up round 15 times. 3) 30 Power Breaths Imagine you’re blowing up a balloon. Inhale through the nose and exhale through the mouth in short but powerful bursts. The belly is pulled inward when you are breathing out and is pulled outward when you are breathing in. Keep a steady pace and use your midriff fully. Close your eyes and do this around 30 times or until you feel your body is saturated with oxygen. Symptoms could be light-headedness, tingling sensations in the body, electrical surges of energy. 4) Scan your body During the 30 power breaths, delve into your body and become aware of it as possible. Trace your awareness up and down your body and use your intuition as to what parts lack energy and what parts are overflowing. Scan for any blockage between the two. Try to send energy/warmth to those blockages. Then release them deeper and deeper. Tremors, traumas and emotional releases can come up. It can be likened to kundalini rising. Feel the whole body fill up with warmth and love. Feel the negativity burn away. Often people report swirling colors and other visual imagery during this exercise. Once you encounter them, go into them, embrace them, merge with them. Get to know this inner world and how it correlates to the feeling of tension or blockages in your body. 5) The Hold After the the 30 rapid succession of breath cycles, draw the breath in once more and fill the lungs to maximum capacity without using too much force. Then push all of the air out and hold for as long as you can. Draw the chin in a bit so as to prevent air from coming in again. Really relax and open all energy channels in your body. Notice how all the oxygen is spreading around in your body. Hold the breath until you experience the gasp reflex on the top of your chest. 6) Recovery Breath Inhale to full capacity. Feel your chest expanding. Release any tension in the solar plexus. When you are at full capacity, hold the breath once more. Drop the chin to the chest and hold this for around 15 seconds. Notice that you can direct the energy with your awareness. Use this time to scan the body and see where there is no color, tension or blockages. Feel the edges of this tension, go into it, move the energy towards this black hole. Feel the constrictions burning away, the dark places fill with light. Relax the body deeper as you move further inward, let everything go. Your body knows better than you do. After 15 seconds you have completed the first round. Start this practice with one or two rounds. Try to do it daily and add two more rounds in a few days. After you feel more comfortable with holding your breath you can start to add exercises and stretches. Work up to a minimum of 15 minutes or 6 rounds with exercises. You can do this practice for how long it pleases you. If you feel dizziness or pain, get out of the posture and lie on your back. Breathe easily again and stop this practice session. Reserve at least 5 minutes after this practice to relax and scan the body. Summary 30 times balloon blowing Breathe in fully Breath out fully and hold until gasp reflex Inhale fully and hold for 10-15 seconds. Repeat until finished Take 5 minutes to relax and scan your body Bonus Power-ups -Add push-ups or yoga poses during the time you are holding your breath until you wait for the gasp reflex. Notice that you are stronger without air than you would normally be if you could breathe! -Charge the energy up the spine by holding moola banda, contract the rectum & sex organ and pull the navel inward towards the spine. -Stand up in squat position and do the balloon breath. Try to breathe away the burn. (get seated again the moment you continue the cycle, you don’t want to be standing and faint) See if you can get the energy overtake the pain. Don’t give up easily and see how far you can go if you have the willpower! ----------------------------------------- Resources In This Episode: -Wim's ... -... -Study: ... -Wim's book: ""... -The book ""...
