25 years ago I said the autonomic nervous system (that controls the immune system) will no longer be autonomic. Many people mocked me and said I was crazy. Now we know. We showed at Radboud that after just four days of training in the mountains and 6 days of solo practice at home, the autonomic nervous system could not only be influenced, but accessed deeply and activated. We did that through the Wim Hof Method breathing techniques, through breath retention. The breathing techniques really go as deep as the autonomic nervous system, and the innate immune system. That’s what brings them under control. Instead of being alienated and disconnected from this control, and having a lot of trouble with inflammation and stress in our lives, we now have control over our adrenaline and cortisol. Looking back at this conversation with Jay Shetty. It’s a reminder of a truth I’ve been sharing for decades.

Fastest way to fall asleep if you’re stuck in fight-or-flight. The Wim Hof breathing exercises go deep into the hormonal system, the endocrine system. When doing these exercises, we’ve seen that the adrenaline spikes and then comes back down. This controlled spike helps reset your body and your hormonal balance. Then, the melatonin can come in and do its magic. You’ve cleansed the chemistry of the cortisol that was keeping you awake. Just a few rounds to find your peace and go to sleep. Ready to reset?

This is how it started. A question many people didn’t think was worth asking: Can we influence our autonomic nervous system and innate immune system? So we put the Wim Hof Method under scientific scrutiny. In 2012, I practiced the method while being injected with an endotoxin. The outcome was clear: fewer flu-like symptoms and lower inflammation than anyone expected. Many said “that’s just the Iceman”... A few years later, we repeated the same experiment with new participants. And they got the same results. Not just me. Anyone can do it. These studies may have been small steps, but they uncovered something meaningful. Human physiology is far more capable than we thought. The results speak for themselves: real, measurable, repeatable. But the best proof is in your own experience. You can learn the Wim Hof Method anytime, anywhere with our most comprehensive video course. Get 50% OFF now:

What happens at the winter expedition stays with you forever. So thrilled when a beautiful soul who joined me last year sent over this song. Born directly from the magic of their experience out in the wild. ❤️ Come write your own story this December in the freezing Swedish wild.

Are you someone who suffers from cold hands? This ice-bucket exercise helps. 🧊 Fighting the cold with the cold might seem counterintuitive until you try it for the first time. People who often complain of cold hands or feet suffer from poor vasoconstriction and dilation. The muscles around the veins in their hands and feet do not function well and need to be retrained. If you typically have cold hands or feet, try doing this exercise daily. Adaptation occurs rather quickly. After a couple of days of this exercise, you will find that your extremities aren’t so cold anymore. Track your daily results in the Wim Hof Method app, and discover more cold exposure and breathwork routines practiced by millions.

I'm a man on a mission. I’m here because of the light. It has guided me on a mission to reveal the true nature of humanity, which is LOVE. It’s time to wake up to that love. It’s time to awaken to a mind that is not vulnerable to manipulation or corruption, that is 100% yours. How do you achieve that? By breathing, going into the cold, becoming conscious, reflecting the soul. We get there by being the light. 🎥: UPROXX

There are many ways to enter cold water... mostly slowly. Not me though.
