I passed the 3 year mark of doing the WHM breathing everyday and it has changed my body and my life. I don't think I'll ever stop. Thank You Wim, so much love
What are the benefits and charges you have. Will be great if you can share. Thanks.
@@roselinesuki6931 sure, this is my experiences doing 4 rounds per session. I found very quickly (4 days to 4 weeks) inflammation reduced in my body (for me, gums & abdominal) and I had more mental clarity around emotions and thought. After maybe 3 or 4 months the fat on my body completely rearranged and was in the places it's supposed to be and not where it isn't. All bodily systems seem to get into harmony and your health gets more and more solid overall. I can genuiniely feel my cardiovascular system has Greatly improved. When around people that are sick with cold flu etc, I never get ill.
The charges... you HAVE to make the time, but it's only 15-20 mins (I now do 20-30 mins) and, I feel, WHM breathing is an energy practice, so be prepared to undergo some changes as you readjust to your body having a nice ctrl+alt+delete reset everyday.
I have experienced and heard of others who say their ears ring more often (I've had that most my life) but it's momentary and doesn't do any harm or damage.
The only other thing, if you are to take it seriously, is to know you start to use your heart alchemically. You should feel things easier to cope with emotionally and less anxiety in general, which can feel abit weird at first if you worry about things that's all!
Hope this helps :)
I am new here, where do I start?
Respect
Did you do cold shower too or only the breathing exercises?
Before I found out about Wim and his amazing cold exposure and breathing methods, my life was just for supporting my family, secretly wishing for the day I'd finally go to eternal peace. But now, I'm really grateful and excited about life because I've discovered how to find comfort whenever I need it. I love pushing myself to the limits. Thank you Wim !
Same ❤
That gratitude breath
That’s beautiful man! Makes me joyful to hear that 💚 I’m on a similar journey. Now I can access the deep joy within
Wow I'm so glad for you👏
@@minoei4384 Thank you so much !
I have experienced that when I sometimes have too many thoughts spinning around during the retention phase it automatically gets shorter, whereas when I am not distracted by the mind and just follow the feeling I can hold the breath for a bit longer. I think that length & quality of holding the breath also very much depend on how busy your mind is with thoughts and how much you follow the actual feeling.
I have adhd and the worse my stress the harder to focus and find that stillness. That feeling that” it’s not working” braatjjg faster and deeper tend to help over come the worse days. Which in turn slows he thoughts down for the rest of the day
Watch Wim in his garden every morning then do my breathing with Wim and then outside for cold water shower. My 14 year old son is outside in the morning under the hose then into his gym then goes for a bike ride. Thank you Wim changing our lives 😊🙏❤️
For me is the best on empty stomach and when stretched/ in good posture/ open posture. Breathing goes through the roof then! When not doing this the effect feels way less. Good stuff Wim, much love to you!
I feel the same as you do. Empty stomach in the morning is the best for me!!
Wim also states it indeed IS best on an empty stomach in the morning, period. Because you are able to fill your lungs to max capacity. And so I do it a while after I’ve woken up in the morning and then go and experience a cold shower 😊
My first time ever trying the Wim Hof method (2 days ago), I was able to hold my breath for 2 minutes, couldn't believe it, second day 2:30 minutes. First day cold shower, I didn't do the breathing prior, I struggled to stay in the cold shower for 30 seconds, second day, I did the breathing first, then easily did 2 minutes in the cold shower. Today is my 3rd day (and my 4th day of Fasting). I fast quite often and I have to say, doing the 4 day fast this time has been extremely easy - I have had so much energy - doing intense cardio sessions in the Gym with 3 days of no food. Unbelievable. I can't wait to work myself upto having the Ice Bath in the middle of winter. I wish I found Wim Hof years ago. Thank you Wim Hof.
Can you explain how you worked yourself into fasting? I can fast for a day but it’s difficult as I have a very physical job and get light headed. Thank you
@Ronathon02 - one more thing I forgot to mention. Try fasting over the weekend for your first 3 day fast, that way you don't have to worry about work, maybe start on a Thursday night (after dinner), then eat again on the Sunday night.. But try to do something to keep your mind busy and active during the fast.
@@ajbarry99 ok awesome thank you 👍🏻
intense cardio sessions while fasting hmmm 🤔
@@erinbail8583 Yes, it's great, burn a lot of excess fat off, I wouldn't do Strength or bodybuilding during fasting, that would be pointless as your body is not getting any external protein.
Please talk more about the breathing and emotional changes and spirituality please. So thankful for this and the method. Thank you once again.
Wim you are one of my heroes, thank you! I'd been curious about the lack of tingles as I have been doing the breathing exercises daily for over two years now. The duration of the breath holds have been going up but I have yet to make it to the three minute mark. Any how this new video provided some good information and put a huge smile on my face the whole while I was watching 😁 love you Wim and all the love happiness and power to you and your family! Thank you!!!!!!!!!
For me, the trick to holding your breath for 3 minutes is being able to relax my brain. I feel the tension to breathe in the lower back of my head. When I can hold it relaxed, I can get to three minutes. As long as I can focus on just keeping my brain from tensing, I can keep holding my breath.
Not sure, but I swear diet effects it. If I'm fasted or had a low carb day my breath holds are quite a bit longer. Also laying down as opposed to sitting.
@@mikemolaro4198 Wim recommends doing the breathing on an empty stomach. I almost always do that.
Health, happiness, strenght
That was the perfect comment
HAPPY RESURRECTION DAY! Thank you for all you do to help so many.
Wishing the whole ice gang very small eggs during this Easter season 😉 Stay cold, my friends! ❄🥚🥚
😂
Ya man so funny wish thats right mf 😂
First I didn’t get it but then it became to slowly sink in 😂😂
Well, only about half of the ice gang 😉
Love love love
Took a couple listens to the joke to realize it's about military time. The 24 hour clock! In the US we still use the elementary school am/pm.
thank you, was searching through the comments perplexed about the joke haha!
Happy Easter Wim and the ICE GANG🎉❤
The laughing comes about because through the act of deep breathing, the ratio of air starts to become more like nitrous oxide which is laughing gas.
You change my life, I love to do the breathing and I combined with yoga.
My longest time was 2 min. I don't do it every day, but when I practice I feel amazing good. Thank you for sharing all your expirence with us.
Thank you, Wim. Your knowledge and wisdom have immense value. My deepest gratitude.
Love Wim Hof's enthusiasm and energy
Thank you foe changing my life wim! Love you!
Yes by your deep breathing and going deeper I have overcome all my negative forces within me by which I am feeling lot better. God bless you.
The Wim Hof method is an invaluable gift to us all. The breathing makes me feel incredible and the cold is like a super power!
6 Months with the WHM, turned 50 this week and I never felt better than now! Thank you so much, Wim!! ((Good Joke..! 😃))
Absolute great video !, I've started your breathing method and cold showers pretty committed now. I've experienced a very big burst in energy accompanied by ALOT more positive motivation throughout the day. Since I had started, one other co-worker of mine started as well ! Community will prevail !
Thank you!!! These were all questions I had! I thought I was failing!
it was taking me a long time to get over covid so i watched your vids , started with cold showers and breathing , 1st time holding breath i could do only 25 sec then panic set in , two days later and its 40sec , feel i have more energy already , thank you
gimme an update i had great success with the breathing when i had covid so i would like to hear some experiences what happens if u use it after covid
I love you man, thanks for everything !
Thank you Wim, lets hope and pray that the whole world may get to know you and your method. Lots of love from @breathpower !
I get the giggles but only sometimes. I love it, even though it totally disrupts my rounds. Go with the flow!!!
Great questions, thank you for the answers Wim!
Nearly at two and a half years of breath holding.From depression to total control and presence. I do two rounds of 20 breaths through the nose.10 and 12 minutes.
Very good! You provide encouragement and hope to others.
12 minute breath holds!?!?!
Thank you for your encouragement.
So far, I did the breathing exercises while I was taking cold showers:
Now, I learn it is better to do the breathing when I'm in a warm environment in order to open up my body: Thank you for this advice, I'll do it this way 😌
He has said for like 1000 times that dont do it in the shower or bath or anywhere standing, lay down on couch or bed.. :D?
@@ilaripori6148 True, he did. Gonna do the breathing while feeling comfortable 😌
Awesome work.
Thank you Wim , Happy Easter! Love your joke! 😁
Thanks Whim, thanks to your method I overcame PTSD, Anxiety and a lot of things. : )
Guru Wim, you legend! We love you. Just be the same 💪🏼
Thank you for your hard work and dedication to sharing this important research and information, I own the book, get it. it's worth it
Muy buenos días, me encanta ésta técnica.
La vengo haciendo hace 1 año , saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷
all the love, all the power...
love you my lovely Wim ❤❤❤
Is it weird that I don't like the breathing part, it gives me anxiety but love the breath hold part. I find it relaxing when I am not breathing.
Nope I'm the same, I feel at peace on the breath hold, although might be because the breathing bit is harder.
Same here. The breathing part gives Me anxiety and Anger.. I have it:( does anyone know the reason?
@@joannakd5479 that is the purpose, you are putting your body into a stress response state and then training it to calm itself with the breath hold and mind relaxation. the benefits of the breathing also include the alkaline cleanse of your blood and reset of your system. so do not fight the anxious feelings when breathing, accept it and let it flow through you, then enjoy the peace of the breath hold and breath it all out once more.
1. ❄WIM HOF ❄, you have all my respect for what you do;
2. YOU are a super HUMAN, not necessarily by the world records you broke, but by the human qualities that you have and by the desire to share your knowledge with your peers, to live together on this earth as happily as possible (I greatly admire the fact that your religion is human happiness, not religious details 👍);
3. May GOD give you many years on earth, "HAPPY, STRONG and HEALTHY" (like You said);
4. With such people the human species truly evolves.
5. No comment !
6. Just RESPECT 🙏.
Thanks Wim Let the healing begin there's nothing as invigorating as the breathwork and a cold plunge or cold swim
Healing saga continues
@@vytkoicaro IKR Good days and bad days The healing path is bumpy but with Wims tools life won't stump me
Love this guy 🎉🎉🎉
That WAS funny :)) Thanks Wim, once again !!!
Good Vid ! Love it ❤
Happy birthday Wim
I love your videos
had this burst of laughter after trying a few sessions, think my body was trying to tune me into the silliness of it and embrace the lasting effects as it becomes a practice. the halo like electricity around my head and i notice my the back of my hands and fingers like pulling the heat from the air around me. i felt like i could like ignite a persons cigarette with my eyes. core heat.
Love you Wim
Love you, Wim
JUST BREATH! HOW SIMPLE, YET COMPLEX. ANY THAT WILL, WILL BECOME A BELIEVER.
lately i've been doing 20+ rounds of the bedtime breathing (in the app) in the evening. i would love to see and/or learn about a comparison between 1 hour of WHM and 1 hour of hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Ahh thank you!! I’ve been doing this breathing every day for months (years on and off!) and never get high or dmt/visions or anything but I can do 2+ minutes breath holds. Good to know it’s still working! Would be fun to see something ridiculous once in a while though 😂
I love it when you laughed at your own joke!
My girlfriend says "nobody cracks you up like you do."
I'm glad Wim Hof does the same.
Love ya bro!
Thank Wim! Doing my breathing sessions in my MiHigh portable infrared sauna like sleeping bag!👍
This guy is the best
Gracias Wim
A warm hello from Sydney Australia
love you mr wim
Love the positive vibe of this guy. Also the joke at the end lol
Love wim ❤
Thanks!
What is the main difference between medittion and breathing exercises? In meditation I find it hard to do for long periods of time but your breathing technique I feel as if it is more comforting
Think of the both as a tool to cleanse your body.
The breathing exercise is a broad sword. It will always have an impact in cutting through your emotional baggage/traumas. A broad sword will always have some kind of effect, that’s why is easier and more suited to our western culture.
Meditation however is more like a scalpel. It usually takes more time and care but you can be way more accurate and aware of what you are doing within yourself. But that takes time to learn. Training, in a way. In the end a scalpel can have the same impact as a broad sword tho.
Hope that helps.
Brilliant
Txh dear Wim.
Genio Wim !!!!
omg Wim, what a dad joke.
I love the tips, by the way. I would love to hear more.
Thanks
Legend
Took me second to get that joke at the end haha brilliant 😂😂
❤ thanks
We love you in Alabama, USA! ❤
A warm hello from VIRGINIA USA
How about 24:32 minutes? Thanks for getting me on this path of super humanity...what one human can do another human can do. Blessings on all of humanity and on joyous humor and if you sing with love you always sound beautiful 🙏❤🖖!!
Thank you so much for your support, I started with cold showers and doing cold plunges now 😎 Is it good to hold it longer than 15 sec on the recovery breath ? Lovely greetings ❤💪😁
I heard it’s absolutely fine, maybe on the ‘convergence lifestyle’ channel which has some good (different from usual) Wim-inspired breath sessions with music.
A hot hello from Yuma, Arizona 🔥
When the Joke goes too far. 😂
Is it a Joke? 😅 Still hilarious 🤣.
Happy easter
Hey Wim, would love to hear your thoughts on what's happening to the agricultural farmers in the Netherlands. What do you think?
Yes :)
Gracias
After breathing exercise and taking a cold shower in the morning I have a cold nose for the most of the day......how do I get rid of that cold or is it normal ? Thank you for your answer
What is the difference between normal slow or fast breathing?
The man got swag
Every time i go to the icebath (i take them straight after 3-4 rounds of breathing), i need to laugh.. I thought i'm crazy, so thanks for the explanation 🙏
Привет из Украины. Днепр. Вим красавчик. Благодарю . 😊😊😊🙏🙏🙏🌞🌞🌞🤝🤝🤝
Hi Wim! Could your method help with nose surgery recovery? Also could it help with empty nose syndrome (ENS)? Just curious because people with ENS seem to have a constant overactivation of their nervous system, and maybe retraining that could help in a way?
Obrigado !
Win
I’m not sure where to submit questions. I was curious I know that you shouldn’t do the cold exposure on a full stomach, but is it okay to do the breath work after eating??
Also, when is the best time to take a drink of water during the breath work? On the out hold? Or the in hold? Or should I pause?
Thank you!
Gracias Gracias Gracias Gracias ❣️ saludos Hombre Hielo 🍧 Gracias 🦋🦋
Absolutely stunned we got this video for free. Sod all else is.
There are dozens on his channel, all for free!
@@Marshallgill Have you read his book ? Not one sentence or word on actual ice baths, not a single one.
However you can "purchase" that off his website...... Unreal.
@@mooncat.787 Oh no, you have to pay for something?!!!! Waaaaaaaaaa. Possibly hundreds of free videos but everything isn't free so nothing is? You really need to practice the method. It would do you wonders.
@@Marshallgill I've practiced breathing methods and cold plunges for year's. Long before Wim Hof became known for it.
The method has been around for thousands of year's, it's nothing new.
Only to the likes of people like you though.
@@mooncat.787 LMAO! What does that have to do with all of the free videos being free? Ouch, you made me feel bad because something something?!! hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!! Thanks for the laugh!!
how long can you go without breathing?
i remeber this joke ...last year in Spain, when we were in the ice bath, you said exactly this =)
I love that man!😂
Hi Wim!
I always have a little trouble warming up after a cold bath or shower. Are there any tips or, do I have to do the horse stance in a specific way?
Been doing it months not far off a year can only get bout 1.40 usually do 3 to 5 rounds as well
I usually can hold my breath for 1 minute and 30 seconds. It's really hard for me to get to 2 minutes. It happens on the odd occasion though 😊 is the body alkaline at 1 minute 30? I was a little confused as towards the end of the video it sounds like that happens around 2 minutes.
Thank you❤❤
Thanks you for the video, pretty nice joke at the end.Keep doing and keep smiling 😊
Is there a variant of the breathing exercises or application of cold that helps older men with their typical complaints (prostate)?
Whm breathing is good for varicose veins?
Just started i suffered asthma When young still do a little ..finding it hard to hold the minute ..Will practice make this easier ?
How many time the effects Will remain after I do the breathing method?
