I feel so nutty. I did your guided breathing and about 30 seconds after I finished I just started laughing. But the type of sincere laughing I haven't done in years. I have been stressed depressed and anxious for years and it felt like the clouds parted for me and I got a look at my genuine self again. I'm grateful for that, truly.
Thats a release of trapped/supressed emotions Its pretty common with this method. And its one of the best things you can ever do, physically letting go of baggage and moving forward with a lighter mind and body.
@@keelobrown4991 how long have you known about this method and the breathing? Did it improve your health, state of mind or both? This is just my second possibly 3rd video in a row by him. I'm just trying to find out more about him. I have been diagnosed with severe depression, ptsd, anxiety and insomnia since 98. I want to actually enjoy my life. So when I heard about him I decided I'd watch his videos to learn more. Any feedback that you can give would be appreciated.
I've been practicing WHM since January. Last three months I do only cold showers, and 4-6 rouns of breathing before shower. Retention time is 3-3.30 minutes easily. During lock down I finished 10 weeks online course. I can not describe how good I feel.
I forgot to mention brown fat activation: after around 5 months of every day cold exposure I felt for the first time cold water as worm in the chest and back area. On the head, legs and arms feels cold (but without discomfort), but on the whole torso is worm.
I love it, he's so in tune with my style of self improvement mentor ( rather than a ' guru ' ) , he sees himself as a teacher, not a guru, and has a no nonsense and fun approach.
Everybody has to give this a solid try. Most people I know only do one round half-a** and that's that. They said they tried it. However the 15% of people who honestly try 4 rounds, implement it into their lives. It took me a little while to get the technique under my belt, but it was worth it. Life changing. And, thankfully Master Hof has opened the door for us. There's so much more to explore.
@@RomanianButterfly18 we all start from somewhere, but after a while the body gets conditioned. Once the body is conditioned, the magic generally happens after the 4th round.. Everytime.
When you do atleast 3 rounds of Wim Hof Breathing every morning (directly after waking up and drinkin some water), this can enhance your life on so many levels. Thank you Wim!
I could hold my breath for 1 minute before the breathing tecnique, now I can hold my breath for over 2, 30 minutes! I do also take cold showers and feel great, my anxiety is redused a lot and I am a lot less stressed. Thank you Wim!
The "carrier of the soul" answer was one of the MOST unique deeeeep real knowledge I heard spoken by a human in a LONG time. Wim is brilliant man! Thank you for EVERYTHING I learned from you 🙏🙏🙏
I got to know WHM a few days ago. Wim is so awesome. Most people in 🇰🇷Korea don't know him and this miraculous technique. I respect him a lot. I always have a body ache, which bothers me and gives me depression, panic attack. I do hope I can be healed, stronger. From yesterday on, I started to take a cold shower. I had only liked a hot shower. I shouted "I can do it!" when cold water fell on me. I am a newbie but I believe I can take an ice bath. Thank you for being here and now ❤
This man is the perfect example of oneness,some ppl follow gurus,some spiritual teachers and some find this oneness themselves,this goes to show you that this 'UNION' isnt found in an indian temple,its not found at the top of a mountain either,you wont find it in religious books and there is no sign post to direct you......just follow your breath and turn inwards,you only experience life within yourself,I personally feel the oneness when surrounded by nature.....if you can discover nature you'll discover your true self ❤🙏
Had a crazy panic trip on a weed shroom cookie last night, Wim Hof breathing didn't "cure" it but certainly helped ride the 6 hour wave tremendously. I think wim hof breathing provides remarkable relief for disassociation and may have great potential for psychosis.
Something I've never heard you talk about, perhaps because nobody has ever pointed this out to you, is that your breathing technique is the cure for panic attacks. Long story short, was struggling with panic attacks for most of my adult life. By chance, and for reasons not related to anxiety, I tried your breathing technique. I didn't know what to expect, but had been told I'd feel a sense of calm... this was initially wrong. As I got to the 10th or 11th breath, I realised that I was experiencing exactly the same symptoms as a panic attack, except this time it felt even more weird, because I had induced the feelings of tingling and light-headedness. Nonetheless, I continued to breath 20. My entire face felt like it was a metre away, I felt electrified, like a panic attack x 1000, but with a weird sense of control. I held my breath, and to my amazement, all those panic attack symptoms (tingling, numbness, light-headedness) went away. Since then, I have never had a panic attack because I feel like I have a tool to combat it, should it occur... and that's what most people who get panic attacks are worried about; having a panic attack - fear of fear. Makes sense because you involuntarily hyperventilate when you're having a panic attack. So yeah, hold your breath, congrats on the cure.
Thanks for sharing. I have to write a ten page paper on panic disorder for a graduate class, and I will check out the effectiveness of the WHM for controlling panic attacks.
Yes, yes and triple YES, I discovered the method when the lock downs started and got into for a while. I got distracted for a few months and recently started having major panic attacks and remembered to start again. I thought I was going to have a cardiac arrest but a few rounds of this exercise and the feeling was gone, have been doing it multiple times daily ever since
Doing this Wim Hof breathing everyday for two months... Really helping with anxiety and stress. Learning how to relax the body deeply and let go of stored stress and unresolved childhood trauma. 4:30 minute breath holds. Woohoo!
Sheesh my brother. What you said about the breath being the very first, and very last thing the ushers our soul in and out of this place, hit me in the heart. Whew...Thank you. 🙏🔥🙏
He is 110% right, each of you just stop for a moment and think about breathing, when you are angry( road rage or someone pissed you off so much you wanna punch him in nose) your breath is short, fast- you feel like its out of your control- you feel pressured, you wanna attack, but when you slow your breath down and take deep breaths you will start feeling more peace, that you are in charge of this situation, when you are nervous before your 1st skydive or your 1st ever driving test on the road, the slower and deeper you breath - the clearer thoughts become, same on psychedelics- i teach others how to find peace with yourself and solutions for your problems, i cant describe it in words how amazing feeling is to slow your breath on lsd for example, you feel like all energy in the universe is here to heal you and make you aware of disctractions on this world, i wish everyone to find their happiness and be healthy❤
The best breathing exercises I have come across, ever since been recommended by a few people with chronic illness, it really has changed my life in such a short time thank you so much
Wim I’ve been cold plunging 4 minutes 43 degrees 4 to 5 times a week and your breathing technique 8 minutes a day. It has profoundly changed my life for the best and improved my health. Thank you sir. If you ever have a public event I hope I know so I can go ! ❤
Hi, I'm Dr Asha age75, from India. I have started doing your breathing exercise and I was able to to do 4 rounds in 2 days. I'm feeling better for sure but need more practice. Thank you for your unique method which actually works.
I downloaded your app Wim and have been practicing every day 3 times at 9rounds. I have had Covid for the last week and the breathing has made a massive difference to the tightness around my chest. It has relaxed me, it has rejuvenated me and I feel myself getting stronger through breath every day. Thank you
Thank you Wim. I do the breathing daily and nightly. You've reversed my panicking attacks and helped me heal emotional trauma. I have so much work to do. I have let go of MaryJanes hand well and truly thanks to you after 21 years of addiction... I owe you. Thank you thank you thank you. God Bless You Wim Hof. You are extraordinary!
Breath is the soul and without it the body is an empty shell. Man became a living soul when God put his own breath into man. Wim thank you once again you’re knowledge through feeling is incredibly real and that is a direct way of finding this path of wellness and happiness
I have been practicing this method every day some times three times a day for my anxiety and stress and it really helps. I'm in the moment when I'm breathing thank you for this.
I've been doing these amazing techniques for half a year)) Love, Strength, Health, Happiness have become the companions of my Life! Huge respect to Wim Hof and all involved! And no questions needed, just do it with all your heart))

I am doing the breathing techniques now for a week. I also take a cold shower every morning.. and i really have the idea it is helping me. With managing stress and inner strength. Thank you Wim
Wim Hof has changed my life! Three months ago My daughter introduced me to Wim’s breathing technique to help me regain calm and balance after a rather traumatic relationship break up. All I can say is WOW and THANK YOU. 😊🦋. I am having a double hip replacement operation in 2 weeks and I am confident that the combination of breathing, cold showers and exercises I’ve been doing will speed my recovery. I’ve never been more content in my life. Bless you Wim Hof!!! 🙏
@@LifeStyle-zs7xr Hi Khadija I’m not sure if I can answer your question properly without knowing what help you need. Do you mean with my relationship break up or hip operation? I can share with you that I followed Wim Hof on RU-vid doing his breathing exercises then I downloaded the app which has lots of other exercises and information. Visit wimhofmethod.com I was also journaling A LOT 😊 going for walks and gentle yoga. I’m doing more intense exercises now - a combination of yoga, Wim’s exercises from the app and physio. I hope this helps a little. I’m happy for you to email me if you want more specifics at djmallos@optusnet.com.au
I really thank you for this win haf method. For a little while I have been over thinking a lot. I did the win haf method almost everyday for a couple months. I noticed even after the first time, I had stopped over thinking and finally my mind is at peace. Thank you so much for making my life so much better!!!! I truly think you are a blessing by god!
amazing the revelation this man has seen that lines up with Biblical teaching! Ruach, Spirit, Wind, Breath! This is Biblical truth! God bless this man!
I started WHM in 2021 then drifted from it due to life distractions - no excuse really. At the end of 2021, I experienced the most traumatic episode of my entire life. And today I started practising again during or just after a major bout of emotional distress. I had heard WH talk of "getting high on your own supply" but never experienced that during my practices in 2021. However, after just one intense round, and breath holding for 2+ mins, I inhaled stopped, then just could not stop laughing. Buzzing. I felt just as high as during my chemical-addled former raving days and couldn't explain it .. the high lasted for maybe 5 or 10 mins and the laughter was uncontrollable. I am almost cautious about practising again because the effect was so powerful, but I will do it again before bedtime to see what happens.. ;) Just incredible. Love to WH and all the WH followers world wide xx
Wim hof. Thank you for your work to improve our health. I live in east Africa. You come all the way to climb Kilimanjaro but we haven't even thought of doing that. My question is . How did you manage to walk through the hot desert without drinking water and not getting exhausted. Or what method of breathing while you were doing the walk? Thank you
I've been on the VHM journey for over 18 month and it has transformed my health. I do my breathing exercises whilst out walking my dogs every morning and haven't had my shower thermometer past the coldest setting for over 14 months. My skin and muscle tone is much better from it too and highly recommended everyone to stick with it and feel the benefits.
You are our brother in nature and you are blessed I would like to thank you for your generosity and helping us to evoluate your method is a miracle it heals from inside and outside thank you so much
Thank you brother!! I Appreciate you sharing the importance of our breath and going deep within. Breath in life and vital force energy. Breath out habitual unconscious stress and death. Love the breathing technique! Listen to Wim but more important, starting acting and doing these techniques he’s sharing. Life changing! Thanks again bro! 🙏🏽
After 11 days straight of getting into the lochs and rivers in Scotland. I'm now getting to a point where I feel I can sit there and swim about for a long time I'm absolutely loving it. But I'm now worrying about how long is to long.
Dear Wim, I've just discovered you and have started doing your breathing technique and love it. I'm wondering if you've worked with people who have tinnitus and whether you believe this technique may eradicate it in time. Mine is quite pronounced and I live in hope that one day a cure may be found. Thank you for the inspiration!
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, I have been doing the breathing for 3 months and feel a benefit from this it does work, just the thought about it before I do it makes me feel calm, I am not very good with the cold shower but will keep at it, I put my feet in cold water and can cope with this my respect to you 💜
Hi Wim! Love your method and thank you much. I have a question- what is the youngest age you would recommend starting children on your breathing techniques? Much love-
Thanks a lot Wim. I’ve read you book and started to do breathing exercises every day and also cold water swimming- I can say now - you save my life. I wish you a lot of love around you, you are great man with deep soul. Many lives were saved with your help and will be saved.
This is awe-inspiring and has helped me greatly. Life changing doesn't star to describe it, more like history changing. Much love and respect for you Win Hof.
I do the breathing in my sauna. It’s difficult at the start but after 6 weeks, every day my lungs are like rockets. I feel amazing, i can hold breath outside of sauna for 4 min no problem
Thank you so much Wim! I would love to ask you something ive been wondering from such a long time: how do you breathe among the day? how do you recommend us to breathe while working, studying, even before sleep? Thank you so much again !
Been doing your breathing and cold shower stuff now for 4 months and I feel amazing I see that life isn’t about money and stuff! I don’t stress about pointless things such as work anymore I just take every moment as it comes even if others get stressed with work I’m like hey just relax we will sort it (: thanks Wim you have showed me what life it really about (:
I'm happy that I found Wim Hof's videos few weeks ago. So cool. I practice since then every day. Question: Is it normal that I reached my longest breathholds during the first week of practising the WHM? I started with 2.11min and after 5 days with rising times I could hold my breath for 3.41min at day 6... This was the "record" so far, but I never reached a similar breathhold-time near that again. In fact it's rare that I reach the 3min. I know it's not about records, it's about feeling, but I'm curious if somebody else experienced the same decline? Was it perhaps only a kind of initial enthusiasm?
“Shut off your mind. Feel.” Reminds me of the Yes Theory video, when the guy is freaking out in the freezing cold river water, and Wim says in the same freezing water “Let it go! You are thinking!”
Twee jaar geleden burn out en stempel chronisch astma met dure medicijnen. Laatste jaar elke dag adem oefening gedaan. Nu gebruik ik geen medicijnen meer. Dank je wel Wim Hof
I am just crying because this is so truth! I understand this exactly! It's about time that i am going to listen to my soul and understand it, breath it.
I am exciting to start it Wim. Since march 2020, I started having a breathing problem. Maybe bcs of the masks, private changes or whatever. Thought about asthma, a heart problem, allergie etc. Hope your technique will show me that I just breathe wrong....🙏
After 6 months of breathing and cold showers my weight dropped by 10kg to my ideal weight. Amazing. First time in 30 years. No cut in food intake. The only other thing I did was to affiirm my ideal weight every night just before I fall asleep. Thanks brother Wim. You are an eternal inspiration. We are the same age: I turn 61 soon. But the mind and body feels 40 again. My son now lives in the Netherlands: when I go and visit I HAVE to meet you :)
With love and gratitude. Thank you Wim, your message is going out to the world. I am eternally thankful for your work. Your spirt of purity is exciting. I suggest to all those reading this, get the app it’s just so easy to use tracks your progress and applauses your success. One year in in the morning and before bed life changing three minute holds and cold showers and every day I look forward to my time with me
From Portugal. I'm 74 yars old. I take some times a bad in morning autside...it is good and easy if I breath and relaxed my body. Tankou for iour teaching.
I'm conservative as heck and still need help tapping into my God given strength through faith and belief! We are fearfully and wonderfully made. Denying yourself of self in order to heal and reach a higher potential in life??? YES!! our souls live on!! The battle is in the mind and the heart is wicked through and through. Strength through faith/believing in the Creator and believing He created you to love wholeness and salvation! Take care
Hi, will your breathing technique work to control the body response to warm? Some people are highly resistance to the hot like in the desert, would it be interesting to see if your technique works with the opposite stress. Cheers
Thank you so much Wim. I'm a bigginer. I can't hold my breath for two minutes. How long will it take for me to get there? By the way I'm from Iran. I thank you already and am waiting to hearing from you! Warm thoughts! Mina
