Episode Summary
Over the last couple of weeks I have been experimenting with taking cold showers and trying out Wim Hof’s breathing exercises based on his free introductory course. I have been impressed with how my tolerance of the cold has improved even over just a couple of weeks.
I have also been inspired listening to Wim Hof explain how and why his approach works and how he has opened his abilities up to the scrutiny of scientific research.
And so based on all of that, when an offer came through on his 60th birthday, I decided to invest in the Wim Hof Fundamentals programme. I share what’s in the package in this episode.
Episode Show Notes
The Wim Hof Fundamentals course is a Ten Week programme with over 13 hours of instruction spanning 43 video lessons. The ten weeks cover the following topics:
- Go Deep
- Stress Control
- Energy Management
- Inflammation
- Endurance
- Longevity
- Under Pressure
- Spirituality
- Creativity
- Life Adventure
Included in the programme are these additional resources:
- A copy of Wim’s book “Becoming The Ice Man”
- Course Workbook to track your progress
- A report outlining how the Wim Hof Method evolved, the physiological effects and the scientific results from the research that’s been carried out.
There is also a WIm Hof App available for iOS and Android devices.
The app is free and introduces the basics of the Wim Hof method to new users. If you are signed up to the Fundamentals programme, it also includes meditations linked to each week.
Over the next ten weeks I will be going through the programme and will keep you updated of my progress.
