The Wim Hof Method – what is it?

The Wim Hof Method is a natural pathway to an optimised state of body and mind.

It harnesses the power of the natural elements our bodies already interface with, namely the air and the cold.

The Wim Hof Method trains our cardiovascular, nervous and immune systems to become more robust, provide energy and life force to every cell in our bodies and equip us to be better able to reduce stress and anxiety; enabling us to become healthy, happy and strong.

Breathing

Almost all of us breathe inefficiently. Life is often lived in the fast lane and especially when we are stressed, we tend to forget to breathe deep into the lungs, increasing our stress levels and further losing out on the energy breathing correctly provides.

Only when you become aware of your breathing, will you be able to learn how to breathe properly and when you do your body will immediately feel energised and your mind will be calmer.

Gradual Cold Exposure

When heating systems were first developed in ancient Greece, cold baths were still thought to have carried health benefits. In the Wim Hof Method, the scientific studies show that gradual cold exposure is a vital force involved in building mental, emotional and physical resilience.

Practising safe cold exposure is challenging, but it yields enormous benefits to both mental and physical health.

Mindset

Although the more subtle of the three pillars, mindset is particularly important and super-charges the breathing and cold exposure but brings with it other benefits.

During the Wim Hof Method practise, you will discover the true power of the mind, the untapped inner strength you have and the shift in mindset from avoidance to growth.
