I start this new klass today. I am 77 years old and I was a beginner for two month ago. Now i can 't go upp from my bed without this breathing. It is fantastic! Thank you very much from a older lady from Sweden! 🙏❤️
I can't do 3 rounds of this by myself without this recording. I've been to classes with a certified instructor and have the mobile app but this recording has been the key for solo breathing. Thank you for posting.
I’m really upset that no institution, no school, no government, no teachers, parents, no one!. Taught me this when younger!. Why?!, why I had to be old to know about this!?. Why didn’t I know it when I was in school competing with the rest of boys in sports? And I was always the loser and weak?. The things that I’m teaching my kids now and family thanks to videos like these!. So much gratitud Sr!!.
Unfortunately they didn't know it. I do know if more people did this, people would treat others and themselves with greater care, respect, and love. So all we can do is do it, and teach it ourselves.
Much of it is the fact that breathing exercises were unknown to be such a great tool for humans but….unfortunately the other big reason is this government we have and the ones put in control of research and keeping our best health as a priority don’t benefit “financially” as much from us being a healthy and happy society…….they and the lobbyists profit greatly by us being sick and mentally unwell. It supports and fuels the health industry, the pharmaceutical industry and most of all the stronger and more self-sustaining we the people are the less control and power the government has over us……..and this is the true threat to this government! Sorry to be negative and pessimistic BUT THIS IS JUST THE TRUTH! Win Hoff is a natural healer and phenomenon that is a large threat to many wealthy people and they want him gone, I pray for his protection and well being ! He is not here by mistake that is for sure! 🙏♥️
I did this method before for 1.5 minute for a while. But for the first time i did 2 minute breath hold. I did not even know i could do that. I like the enthusiastic narration in the video.
I've been doing this every day for about a week and I'm not gonna pretend that I know how the chemistry behind it works, but I've been feeling a lot happier and enjoying little stupid things a lot more. I'm very thankful for this.
two decades of extreme anxiety and depresion has caused my body to tie up, my muscles are so tight that i have trouble moving properly, i turn my whole body around just to look in another direction, i have trouble breathing, i have headache's that can last for month's , it feels like i am carrying a heavy backpack at all times and everything from under my feet, my fingertips and the top of my head hurts from the moment i wake up until i go to bed, i rarely feel true joy or happiness, just tiresome hopelessness, if not for the heavy handed chiropractic treatment i get too loosen my muscles, i would probably be insane by now. but i tried this breathing method just now and i'm in tears, my body doesn't hurt for the first time in years and i can't stop smiling, i can turn my head and gyrate my hipps with out pain, my back feels great, my body feels warm and i feel the blood pumping all through my body, this stuff fucking works!!!! thank's mr hoff👍
Reading this after my 3rd round and this comment almost had me in tears. Keep going bro keep pushing your going to be fine I promise you, stay positive and ask the universe for the help you need and I promise you'll get it. Your going to be fine.
murus micmac Yes, I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia and I was told there was nothing I could do about it but as I’ve been doing this breathing and cool showers, I’m becoming more aware of the fibromyalgia is just dis-ease in the body due to tension and trauma. It can be worked out!
CA. Im 186 days free from addiction . 12 step programme. Thank you for this meditation. Step 11 Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out
Unbelievable! Allowed me to go to a place of calmness and blankness in my mind, and I was hospitizaled with depression two weeks ago. This is life changing. Thank you! I'm going to practice this, daily. Every time I need to take a break he edge off.
Not gonna lie, I was really skeptical of this but I only went through one cycle, and when he told me to hold my breath I literally began to cry. I held it for a whole minute, I’m not in the best shape, and I’ve never done that before. I finally felt like this body is mine.
Hamish Mackay Same thing happened to me! I started uncontrollably crying which turned into uncontrollably laughter! Now I feel so calm and relaxed. Amazing stuff, will be practicing daily from now on
This is seriously amazing! Been suffering from anxiety and depression and it’s been tough. This has seriously helped me and even helping me face my fear of public speaking. I spoke briefly in front of 650 people this weekend and this helped me prepare. 🙏 Mr Wim Hof, you’re a legend! Thank you
Thanks for sharing! Been doing WHM for about a year now and it is currently helping me in my search to find my real self. The amount of traumas inflicted on me in my youth made me insecure, anxious and angry most of the time. With the help of Wim Hof, Aikido, Archery, Reading books and several other things, I am getting closer to myself again. ❤💪🏻🙏🏻
can you tell how you handled it and used WH's breathing? I guess lots of ppl are also in depression [especially these days] and would benefit your experience. Tx.
Today it’s 11 July 2019, Oh my gosh. The best breathing exercise I’ve ever had. I have been suffering from sinuses that I can’t breathe without having to get rid of mucus first. Guys you will feel dizzy and have tingling in your body , it’s just coz your body is not used to getting a full oxygen into your lungs. It s normal reaction. I’m surprised that I can hold my breath for bloody 2 minutes. WTF man, this guy is a life saver. Thank you so much Wim Hof. I’ll remember this man forever! Sending love from London, UK.
I've been taking cold showers for more than a month now. I always do this breathing exercise once when water starts to run, and then I can withstand cold water for 10 minutes straight.
@@Reloaded2111 I'm positive you can withstand cold water much longer than 10 minutes! It's just that no one takes a cold shower for longer than that haha. Once I'm in a cold shower it eventually feels comfortable and warm, almost
I am from india, today I completed 1 month, my cute little 7 year baby also join me, she told me, papa, wim hof started his cold breathing journey at age of 16, I started it in 7 so naturally I will climb lot of mountains and win ultra marathon race. thanks wim, best wishes from india
Just tried it. Something about being able to exist calmly without breathing, something you have done since you were a fetus, that gives intense clarity.
Mann *** Just completed day 31 of this remarkable life observing breathing experience. My first breath usually tops around 1 minute 40 seconds, but the 2nd and 3rd sets I am exist with no air in my lungs for 2:00 minutes. However this evening my 2nd and 3rd sets were 2:15 minutes/seconds and 2:25 minutes/seconds. I felt warm tingling in my fingers and a trancelike aura in my mind. I focused on reconfirming myself to relax and observe the stillness and not fear. Then I heard a sound which I call "Che" (the creative voice of possibility) that lasted about 30 seconds. This is the best natural High that is greater than I Am. I always practice breathing during my lunch break, and if time permits I will do an evening experience. I can only image the disciplined focus and life changing benefits that I will enjoy as I improve my craft. -->To All breath in and breath out! PEACE
what do you mean by the creative voice of possibility? I'm so interested, I just did this for the first time and already held my breath for 2 minutes almost, It's crazy!
@@janjansen2091 I guess the best way to describe this is; completely relax the mind (which usually takes a few minutes. The mind always wants to analyze, try and project results, calculate situations and formulate judgments..... and or race to the next thought without you really understanding that these are just thoughts.) When the mind starts calming down it might go into a panic mode because it wants to think. However after a few minutes it will stop racing from thought to thought. At this moment focus on the feeling of just observing your breathing in softly and exhaling gently. If you are really alert and relaxed you will feel a slight surge of energy at the gap of space between the inhale breath and the exhale breath. I know this might sound crazy but that space of time is infinite and the energy there limitless and it can transcend anything into your being. Once you realize that you are feeling that energy, your mind will start racing more ideas into your brain, because it wants control. Its like trying to catch the "blue bird of happiness" we are mesmerized by it, but we can't hold on to it. I hope you can understand. Peace.
Been doing this method every day for four months now. It gets easier, and more rewarding I promise! The first month was good but tought. Month 2 and three I did a slightly slower version, which helped me learn the breathing better. month 3 I consistantly added a second round. Recently, I added a third round and pushups and squats during the retention of round three. HOLY MOLY. I'm releasing endogenous DMT into my brain! I'm feeling the tingles deep in my organs. I'm taking a cold shower after and feeling absolutely amazing. Stick with it everyone! This is for real, this is powerful, and this is beautiful.
Did you feel dizzy and light-headed at first? I cannot do five of those quicker breaths at the start without feeling like I’m ready to blackout. I have always taken time to deep breath throughout my day... but this felt off. Any suggestions?
I am currently in rehabilitation for the fourth time due to various drug additions and doing these breathing techniques feels 100x better than any of the drugs they are pumping into me to relax me and wind me down (Diazepam, Serquel etc..). Absolutely shocked and amazed. I felt like I was floating 5 inches off my hospital bed and in a complete state of tranquility and peace. Thank you!
I am a cycler, hiker, freediver, runner and calesthenics enthusiast.. I have never tried such an amazing practice and technique.. It feels unbeleivable i cant describe it.. Couldnt hold my my smile when he says you did it man.. Big thanks to this channel and super big love to the guy who is speaking in it
This has changed my life. Everything has become easier, tasks are not a high boulder to push anymore. I’m so much more present and I can focus on my goals with ease. I wanna take god for placing a man like wim on this earth, people like him are needed to impact and change so many lives. God bless you wim
I was out running, and me and my sister met a 90 year old man named Hicks and we asked what his greatest life lessons were .. and he said “Love your neighbors becasue they are your lifeline” and also “Never go to bed mad about anything” .. and as I left, I said to enjoy your day.. and he said “I always do, because I woke up today” And then we saw our neighbor outside and went to her and met her. Her name is Laura and she’s and older women and she was just taking her husband to the hospital for some treatment and we shared some love and kindness to her and made her day 🥰🥰🥰🥰
TAKE A DEEP BREATH Oh much love! I use this video twice a day, and I tell others about the method and instantly refer them to this video for training.. after the safety brief haha ☺️
I thought i was alone in that feeling haha I used this for the first time two days ago before bed and I honestly couldnt stop laughing or smiling I loved the feeling. Planning on using this every day morning and night.
As a recovering smoke addict, this is a huge blessing. The fact that I could even hold my breath for 2 minutes even after all of the damage I put on my lungs just shows how helpful this is. God bless!
I lost it...... I was overwhelmed with tears. 1st round I felt something, something great and 15 or so breathes in I started to cry, I felt something simmer then just boil over I was balling......i couldn't finish up my round. I held my breathe for 2 minutes, never in my life have I done anything like that. I don't know how to thank you but I know..(SO I THANK YOU KINDLY Mr. HOF)..... it will be something I've never done in my life!!!!
I've been doing the beginner video with wim Hof for over a year on and off, but this one is a new freaking level. My brain went somewhere else and the sense of peace and calm. I feel from this brain reset is amazing. I can't believe they don't teach this stuff in schools
Just have to be another person to confirm this does work. I’ve seen a lot of sceptical methods about changing the body but I just tried this one for the first time and I can say I would NEVER have been able to go a minute without breath before trying this. Crazy... only trying this takes a few minutes of your life, please give it a whirl.
Everyone needs this in their life. I am on day 3 of which I've done it twice per day. Tonight I just got done with 6 rounds. I hallucinated. Visions of my 3rd eye. Black, blue and purple colors. Totally unreal. The most calm and relaxed I have ever been. Totally addicted. Thanks for sharing this video.
@@elizabethammon978 It’s always best to breathe through your nose, as it oxygenates the blood better. However, if you have a deviated septum, congestion or something else that doesn’t allow a big fills breathe, through your mouth is just fine.
@@JAK3THETUB3nice, where did you hear about this? I’ve been doing the wim hof breathing for about 4 years but I’ve only ever beathed through the mouth as I find it easier to get a super full breath and totally fill my lungs. Maybe I’ll try it through the nose only too
This is the greatest thing I've found on the internet. Thank you SO much. It's like a daily dose of endorphins just sitting in a chair. I like to do this sitting in my computer chair in the dark with my eyes closed. After you do the intense breathing and you get to holding your breath, try to focus on just existing. Be nothing and no where. I like to pretend I'm just floating in space. Try putting your arms above your head when you hold your breath. If you can't make it the entire two minutes just take 1 deep breath and hold it. It feels AMAZING. How can you feel so alive and not be breathing?
I have been doing casual meditation for several years about once a day. So I’m no stranger to “spiritual work”. I just did this breathing exercise for the first time. Multiple times I wanted to cry because how much joy I experienced, and love for everyone. Tingling sensation through my body. Holding my breath last time and when last round ended for about 30 seconds I experienced like there was nothing around me but me, then the world slowly crawled back into my awareness. Definitely a very powerful and unique method, recommend it to everyone, will be doing this every day. By the way first round I made it 1:36, 2nd 1:47, and 2:00. 👍
Awesome technique. But in the last round I only hear when Wim says "let it go", I think I lose my mind and I have a "blackout". Anyone notice anything similar?
@@oktom818yes that happens to me too, it’s the oxygen regulation that affects your body, my ears also pick up sound different, like it’s damped or something, all part of the meditation don’t worry!
I feel my hands and feet tingle, and this is weird to say but I can feel the blood vessels open and expand in my brain, my head gets warm and i can feel the blood flow increase. Literally feel the benefits in real time while practicing. It really is something else..
Thank you a lot, brother! I came here with a chaotic state of mind, feeling horrible, couldn't recognize my feelings, and so on. In the beginning, my mind resisted a lot, but just after the second round, it surrendered. I am leaving with peace in mind and much more awareness of my feelings. ❤
This works! I've only been doing this for two days now and I feel amazing. This will remain a daily routine for me. I will live to be two hundred years old!
I'm glad you are finding benefits, too. Wim Hof's method changed my life, and I bet it will change yours as well. I do the three cycles with this video every day then some push-ups to get a little blood flowing and then some stretches. My heart rate always drops to a nice and easy level, while my oxygen saturation goes up.
Having heard about the benefits of yoga and meditation, I recognised that it helped a lot of people. I understood the benefits on a intelectual level, but I never experienced anything special when I tried it. Then I came across this breathing technique, tried it, and I finally understood what all the fuss is all about! For people who are too much in their heads, this will give them an understanding of what "embodiment" actually means.
I've been doing this breathing meditation for about three weeks now. I've tried others but this is my favorite. I consider it a meditation because during the retention period I feel immense love and gratitude. Ive also found other meditations I do afterwards that I get into stillness immediately. Thanks Wim Hof!
Wow reading this comment section put me in tears… all the people this is helping remove themselves from fearful state , which we have been programmed to be in this state so we are easily controlled and this is the cure too experience love and joy by breathing properly removing yourself from that fearful state and connecting with your true self.. I did 1 round and just felt such intense joy and love. Bless you Wim…
That was absolute, unadulterated, magnificent, perfection!! I can't believe breathing could be so exhilarating!! (Don't let the government know about this or they will start taxing our breaths!!) Thanks for taking the time. 💟😁
Same here, huge break up, biggest love of my life, homeless, suicidal, type 1 diabetes and more shit that no one interested but this helps me alongside You doing great man
I hope you are okay Emile. Life is full of pain sometimes but then it passes. You have to stay alive to see the beauty on the other side. Lots of love to you!!!
You are doing great ! Many others have given up or worse in your situation. The fact you are on this shows your path does not end here and you have much more goodness to give and experience!
As someone who suffers a lot with their mental health this is life changing. My best friend passed away recently and I fell into a deep slump, on top of that I've been working a lot. Today I took an ice cold shower and tried this. I honestly feel amazing, my whole body felt warm and buzzed and my mind just felt clear.
I have been doing the exercises according to this particular WH video for years now and as long as I do it without fail, I do not fall sick AT ALL but if for whatever reason I stop for a week or so, then it’s a slow retreat to the bad old days. Many thanks WH for your selflessness.
Doing this wh exercise made me realise my soul is past away. Totally emotionless, pure emptiness. Only stress and tension, no relieve or rest. Doing the wh used to make me feel something inside, emotion, rest, relieve, energy. I also used to be able to find a complete state of calmness when holding my breath for 5 or even 7 minutes, but now im only able to hold my breath for 1½minute. This is although a very helpful video one of the best versions of the wh exercise on youtube. Thanks.
I'm going to do thing daily! Holy shit it is so powerful. Day Two: Even more powerful then the first day, I had a whole out of body experience and felt like I was floating. It felt like I was on acid. To all the people wondering it just depends on your personal experience. Some days it's not as dramatic as others but I do it everyday still. It helped my anxiety and depression. The main thing is you feel really tingly. (You dont see anything so dont be worried). The main thing is you need to keep trying of you dont feel anything.
This is amazing. Thanks to Koa Smith, who recommends this video. After the first round, I had tears coming up and felt lighter. I also opened my eyes and saw colors and light in a more vivid and limpid way. After round 3, it’s like I’m floating sitted on my bed,. The power of breath is spectacular , thanks for that ❤ you brought magic into my day and for more to come ❤
This really helps me calm down my heart rate a lot. Last night after I came back from work I had heart palpitations due to stress of the job. This breathing exercises took them away for me. I felt so calm after the 3rd round, my heart was back to normal and beating at 60bpm. If anyone is stressed out, this exercise will help you a lot :)
This is the greatest meditation I’ve ever encountered! I do this exercise every morning and night, and let me just say I get a euphoric experience every time! If you can make the time, try doing it for yourself. More specifically, I like to do this right after my morning prayer (just before coffee and breakfast) and again while lying down in bed just before falling asleep. Remember the rules guys: 1. Safety is first! Do not do this while driving, operating heavy machinery, or anything that can put you in harms way. Be sure you’re in the comfort of your own environment and have your full body relaxed by either sitting down or lying down. 2. Try your best to perform the exercise on an empty stomach. 3. Never ever force yourself to go too far where you may faint. If you stay consistent with this routine, you’ll find yourself breathing better and holding your breath for even longer and truly connecting more with your body. 4. Breathe with your diaphragm, not your chest and shoulders. Focus on your body and notice if you’re moving your shoulders every time you take a breath. If so, try relaxing your shoulders and start the exercise by exhaling all of the air out of your body first. Good luck everyone and the moment you find yourself doing this properly, you’ll find yourself in the clouds by third round.
Agreed! I've been doing this for about a week now and I fall asleep maybe a sentence into, "Dear Lord, thank you for the life you have given me!" It's like a sleeping spell! Breathing meditation followed by prayer followed by near immediate sleep! Also, thanks for the tips about the whole shoulder/chest breathing. I think I've been pissing myself off trying to breathe deeper with my chest and shoulders... and while I enjoy the tingling euphoria, I hate the effort and frustration I get trying to breath deeply. I've been smoking since I was 16 and I'm 36 now. Damned cigarettes/vaping garbage.
As tears falls from my eyes, my body feels as if I'm floating. Tingling head to toe. My eyes are closed I'm seeing colors spin, spiral and twist around. Thank you.
Crying/grieving is safe and a natural detoxant . It opens pathways deep inside of us that are getting covered in layers of spam, as nature intended us to detoxify and to feel her love.
Had a buddy walk me through this video the first time. It's the first time ever finding something to control my thoughts. I can honestly say this has changed my life and how I view everything. Maybe thats extreme to some but there's no other way I feel about this. I remember uncontrollably smiling the first time because I just couldn't believe that breathing was all I need. Life isn't as hard as society makes it. Happy breathing✌️
holy crap AMAZING! i will do this every day. for what do we need drugs when we have our magnificent body an mind! All day i felt depressed and low energy. then i was doing this. a little afraid of the effect at first after 2 minutes into the routine. my hands, legs, stomach and lips felt increasingly number into the 3rd phase but i could hold my breath for over 2 minutes in the last phase during the breath hold of phase 3 i felt like i had to laugh. i felt so much joy! in the end I felt all the energy in my body! and i laughed for 20 seconds straight i jumped of and thought what was i doing all day long? wasting time! now i feel more productive and energized
akaPuppetmaster dudeee i had the exact same experience, i busted laughing at the last breath on 3rd round, some guy told me that feeling is the endorphins and a whole lot of other brain good feeling chemicals being released, it’s euphoric
@@DuckTape747 DUDE WOW, i haven't done it for a long time now and it's been passing through my mind to start to practice it again, this is the most obvious sign.. i will start again now
My sons convinced me to start the Wim Hoff training. I changed i a different person: so strict in breathing every day, so strict and crazy about jumping into the cold lake with 16 degrees celsius....and I will stick to it day by day! I realized that everything in life is a matter of perspective and of positive attitude. Thank you a thousand times Wim!
When I do this in the morning, immediately afterwards my stomach begins rumbling as if begging me for food. I get the ear buzzing too. Amazing intense experience!!
I tried this for the first time yesterday & right after round 2, a tingling/static like sensation began to travel across my hands. Then I bursted out laughing uncontrollably followed by a deep feeling of gratitude. What happened next really through me off though because I had never experienced it. I saw energy. Very similar to incense smoke. Energy was traveling in front of me. It was also coming off my left hand. This breathing technique is truly something special!!!
Today I drank a little wine. then after a while I did the exercise ..... Then I could only hold my breath for one minute. Usually 2 minutes and more. It showed me that drinking alcohol doesn't feed my body well with oxygen. I'm thankful for this realisation,,😉
I’m so glad to see so many people on the path. You don’t realize that there are people all around you pondering the universe for themselves. Doing so just as people like Aristotle and Tesla once did. We are the universe and we have come to life to experience ourselves. For so long, however, those who have realized this have remained in the minority. I implore you: spread these ideas and these realizations with the people around you. We must all do our part to push humanity forward. Cheers fellas :)
I tried this yesterday from another video I watched and made it about 30 seconds. I have been a pack a day smoker for the last +20 years. Today I found this video and made it 55 seconds during round 1, 58 during round 2, and a full minute with a deep breath hold for 10 seconds followed by the other 50 seconds. The feelings coursing around my body are something I don't know if I have ever experienced before. Even now, minutes after watching the video, I still feel something, and it feels really good. I can only describe it as a hieghtened sense of awareness. Love it.
Give yourselves time to heal.. your body needs it more than an anxious mind. I'm coming off a year long vocal injury. I would do this every morninng for 5 months straight until I started to feel better and sing again. I have pretty much recovered from it until recently I relapsed into the same sore throat feeling that I had felt for months and months. I went back to this video and can say you can control your body's/immune response to pain and sensitivities. We need this to calm ourselves down. I hope you all are benefitting from this as much as I am.
I Have Being Doing This Seriously for About a Month Now and My Lung's Capacity to Intake Air Has Quintuplide... I Started By Being Able to Counting Only to 15 and Now I Have Reached Even 80 Counts.... Not to Mention That I Breath Better and Can Feel My Body Getting Repaired... It Is Just Fenomenal. I Expect to Reach the Sky By Continueing This Practice Into My Daily Life Long Routines!!!!!!!!! I Am Certain That Everybody Should Include It Into Their Daily Healthy Habits for Life!!!!!!!
I thought I was only one who cried but it wasn't. I felt lighter after heavy tears left my body... I have no words to describe how thankful I am for this meaningful experience 🙏
Today morning was the first time I tried this for the whole three rounds and I can't even explain how I feel. There was a loud buzz and deep sensations from my head to toe and that's something I've never experienced before. I've noticed that when you inhale after breath retention, your brain gets all choked up on that oxygen which really helps it to get super active. Considering how I feel after one session, I'll definitely incorporate this twice in my daily routine. So much gratitude to Wim Hof
On a month of doing this exercise now.. I can say with confidence this is truly amazing, the breathing gives me so much clarity and energy, along with cold showers. I do it morning and before bed love the feeling. Wim hof thank you for this gift, you truly are an amazing man. Wish the world was full of people like you.
The guy I am talking to introduced me to this and oh my lord... When we did it together and it was my first time, it was euphoric when I finally inhaled after 2 minutes of holding my breath the other night. Now I'm doing this again myself and did the two minutes the first two rounds then the last round I went until I couldn't hold it anymore and made it to 3 minutes and the inhale felt the most euphoric. My whole body was in a buzzing state and it was the best feeling ever! I love this so much
@@pw1874 hello.. a year later but I'll answer. It has helped my anxiety.. it just makes me feel better, all aspects of life improve when you feel better. I'm only now going to start doing the cold exposure therapy part of the method... challenge yourself and force yourself to do it everyday for 7 days and see for yourself.
I just want to say thank you from my heart for making this. I just did it for the first time. The feeling after I finished has me in tears right now. I can’t ever remember feeling this good in my entire adult life.
I just did 60+ Chest push ups effortlessly after this. The oxygen makes working out very easy, and body exercises a lot better. While holding you breath after each set, exercise then! and do each set.. it works wonders.
I think this is good to prevent Cancer too because your PH level increase so we get our bodies more alkaline, Cancer dont grow in alkaline bodies only in Acid bodies, Cancer dies when there is more oxygen in our blood and this exercise put a lot of oxygen in us. Our PH should be more Alkaline than Acid. Thank you! God bless you👌👌
this is incredible and everyone should be so lucky to experience this technique. Does anyone else yawn like crazy with tears streaming down their face, or is it just me 😂 I read it’s energy being released from the body. thank you for this miracle Breathwork video!
Its wonderful. I have an ear infection and an infected cyst... yucky, I know! I’m waiting to see my doctor tomorrow but in the meantime this is making me feel so much better! Which in turn I know is helping me to heal.
Amazing, I'm still smiling after doing this! It is scary to do but the hardest and must rewarding part is pushing through the fear and finding no fear on the other side. We are all incredibly powerful!
I closed my eyes as I held my breath and imagined myself floating through space. So close to 2 minutes without breathing... can't wait to try again tomorrow.
I never knew, i tried it without and it was 20 seconds, with the technique after 1 time of watching the vid it was 2 min and 10 sec, Amazing man, truly amazing....

Eva I am so happy for you.Keep on,stay safe and be blessed.❤️🙋 from Greece.
I now do this every morning upon waking and every night before sleep. It is the best thing that I have learned in my 51 years. Thank you so much.
Same here.
62 year old here. I sleep in an almost catotonic state when i do this.
Yvonne Barretta how does this help you?

I can't do 3 rounds of this by myself without this recording. I've been to classes with a certified instructor and have the mobile app but this recording has been the key for solo breathing. Thank you for posting.
Same here🌼
Me too
Glad I'm not alone

Exactly, never delete it
Four years on this one, still going strong
I’m really upset that no institution, no school, no government, no teachers, parents, no one!. Taught me this when younger!. Why?!, why I had to be old to know about this!?. Why didn’t I know it when I was in school competing with the rest of boys in sports? And I was always the loser and weak?. The things that I’m teaching my kids now and family thanks to videos like these!. So much gratitud Sr!!.
Unfortunately they didn't know it. I do know if more people did this, people would treat others and themselves with greater care, respect, and love.
So all we can do is do it, and teach it ourselves.
If only the evil parasites would try this
Much of it is the fact that breathing exercises were unknown to be such a great tool for humans but….unfortunately the other big reason is this government we have and the ones put in control of research and keeping our best health as a priority don’t benefit “financially” as much from us being a healthy and happy society…….they and the lobbyists profit greatly by us being sick and mentally unwell. It supports and fuels the health industry, the pharmaceutical industry and most of all the stronger and more self-sustaining we the people are the less control and power the government has over us……..and this is the true threat to this government! Sorry to be negative and pessimistic BUT THIS IS JUST THE TRUTH! Win Hoff is a natural healer and phenomenon that is a large threat to many wealthy people and they want him gone, I pray for his protection and well being ! He is not here by mistake that is for sure! 🙏♥️
Parents and possibly a teacher might care. Institutions though? Forget it. They could care less.
I did this method before for 1.5 minute for a while. But for the first time i did 2 minute breath hold. I did not even know i could do that. I like the enthusiastic narration in the video.
The narration makes the practice engaging and it is encouraging, makes the practice more fun
I've been doing this every day for about a week and I'm not gonna pretend that I know how the chemistry behind it works, but I've been feeling a lot happier and enjoying little stupid things a lot more. I'm very thankful for this.
That's so beautiful!! I must tried this my first time today and I cant wait to feel the benefits
If only the evil parasites would try this
two decades of extreme anxiety and depresion has caused my body to tie up, my muscles are so tight that i have trouble moving properly, i turn my whole body around just to look in another direction, i have trouble breathing, i have headache's that can last for month's , it feels like i am carrying a heavy backpack at all times and everything from under my feet, my fingertips and the top of my head hurts from the moment i wake up until i go to bed, i rarely feel true joy or happiness, just tiresome hopelessness, if not for the heavy handed chiropractic treatment i get too loosen my muscles, i would probably be insane by now.
but i tried this breathing method just now and i'm in tears, my body doesn't hurt for the first time in years and i can't stop smiling, i can turn my head and gyrate my hipps with out pain, my back feels great, my body feels warm and i feel the blood pumping all through my body, this stuff fucking works!!!!
thank's mr hoff👍
murus micmac Thanks for sharing man, that’s awesome ✌🏽
trying reading the power of now
warrcc c keep pushing man 👍
Reading this after my 3rd round and this comment almost had me in tears. Keep going bro keep pushing your going to be fine I promise you, stay positive and ask the universe for the help you need and I promise you'll get it. Your going to be fine.
murus micmac Yes, I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia and I was told there was nothing I could do about it but as I’ve been doing this breathing and cool showers, I’m becoming more aware of the fibromyalgia is just dis-ease in the body due to tension and trauma. It can be worked out!
CA. Im 186 days free from addiction . 12 step programme. Thank you for this meditation. Step 11 Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out

Best of luck on your journey Dean wishing you all the strength

Unbelievable! Allowed me to go to a place of calmness and blankness in my mind, and I was hospitizaled with depression two weeks ago.
This is life changing. Thank you! I'm going to practice this, daily. Every time I need to take a break he edge off.
How has it been after 2 months?
Depressions got em good
Congrats man hope your still doing good 2 months later
God bless
Depression isn't real dont take any pills for it.. just eat vegetables and drink water you will feel better
Not gonna lie, I was really skeptical of this but I only went through one cycle, and when he told me to hold my breath I literally began to cry. I held it for a whole minute, I’m not in the best shape, and I’ve never done that before. I finally felt like this body is mine.
Shirleen O so happy to ready your post
Watch Max Strom's TED talks when you get a chance. He talks about how many people break into tears during breath his work. It's incredible.
Hell yes! I cried after my third. Like...happy tears. Not bawling. LoveIt. WimHofForLife.
The World🌎 is yours
yesss!!
Had a bad day and tried this for the first time, now sitting crying and laughing never felt better
Hamish Mackay Same thing happened to me! I started uncontrollably crying which turned into uncontrollably laughter! Now I feel so calm and relaxed. Amazing stuff, will be practicing daily from now on
same thing happened to me!
Glad buddy

Same thing happened to me.
This is seriously amazing! Been suffering from anxiety and depression and it’s been tough. This has seriously helped me and even helping me face my fear of public speaking. I spoke briefly in front of 650 people this weekend and this helped me prepare. 🙏 Mr Wim Hof, you’re a legend! Thank you
Shutting off oxygen to your brain to feel drug like sensations and kill nerve snd brain cells and that helped you did it
How did you feel speaking in front of 650 people after the exercise? :)
@@gordonramsdale by that logic doesnt that mean that swimmers have brain damage ?
I'm proud of my good friend regain and restore your power. If you get a chance to meditate please do. I highly suggest giving it a try🙂🙏
@@gordonramsdale lmfao
I've been WIM Hoff breathing for 4 years... it's helped me out of a huge depression.. anybody else?
Hey congrats man. Hope you're doing great
Thanks for sharing! Been doing WHM for about a year now and it is currently helping me in my search to find my real self. The amount of traumas inflicted on me in my youth made me insecure, anxious and angry most of the time. With the help of Wim Hof, Aikido, Archery, Reading books and several other things, I am getting closer to myself again. ❤💪🏻🙏🏻
Yes it brings me peace, eliminates stress all depression is gone full of happiness.. I xan tell a difference the days I do and the days I don't.
super! thx for sharing. How did you get involved in the beginning? did you take any of those paid courses on WHM website?
can you tell how you handled it and used WH's breathing? I guess lots of ppl are also in depression [especially these days] and would benefit your experience. Tx.
Today it’s 11 July 2019, Oh my gosh. The best breathing exercise I’ve ever had. I have been suffering from sinuses that I can’t breathe without having to get rid of mucus first. Guys you will feel dizzy and have tingling in your body , it’s just coz your body is not used to getting a full oxygen into your lungs. It s normal reaction. I’m surprised that I can hold my breath for bloody 2 minutes. WTF man, this guy is a life saver. Thank you so much Wim Hof. I’ll remember this man forever! Sending love from London, UK.
Love your comment.. coming from a fellow Londoner 😁😁😁😁

Im a student in Bulgaria and we wont have hot water for two weeks, so here I am trying Wim Hof method!
Andrijana Nikić god bless you hopefully you have water soon
Andrijana Nikić LoL nice use!
I've been taking cold showers for more than a month now. I always do this breathing exercise once when water starts to run, and then I can withstand cold water for 10 minutes straight.
@@Reloaded2111 I'm positive you can withstand cold water much longer than 10 minutes! It's just that no one takes a cold shower for longer than that haha. Once I'm in a cold shower it eventually feels comfortable and warm, almost

I am from india, today I completed 1 month, my cute little 7 year baby also join me, she told me, papa, wim hof started his cold breathing journey at age of 16, I started it in 7 so naturally I will climb lot of mountains and win ultra marathon race.
thanks wim, best wishes from india
this is heart warming, love from holland
@Virendra Singh जरूर, आप पानी पी सकते हैं। सुबह बिना खाये करें तो ज्यादा अच्छा है।

Wow how impressive
r/wokekids
Just tried it.
Something about being able to exist calmly without breathing, something you have done since you were a fetus, that gives intense clarity.
Any body else notice how your vision changes when you do this? How the colours of the world become more polished, more vivid? Or is it just me??
Yes!!!! I also felt light headed too.
Brian Gachie Yup! I have.
Yes. vision does change for me too
Yeah they do. If i close my eyes i always see like a star shaped or snowflake like figure, feels good
@@yoursoul1678 dude when i do this with close eye i see like and explosion it is amazing
Mann *** Just completed day 31 of this remarkable life observing breathing experience. My first breath usually tops around 1 minute 40 seconds, but the 2nd and 3rd sets I am exist with no air in my lungs for 2:00 minutes. However this evening my 2nd and 3rd sets were 2:15 minutes/seconds and 2:25 minutes/seconds. I felt warm tingling in my fingers and a trancelike aura in my mind. I focused on reconfirming myself to relax and observe the stillness and not fear. Then I heard a sound which I call "Che" (the creative voice of possibility) that lasted about 30 seconds. This is the best natural High that is greater than I Am.
I always practice breathing during my lunch break, and if time permits I will do an evening experience. I can only image the disciplined focus and life changing benefits that I will enjoy as I improve my craft.
-->To All breath in and breath out! PEACE
❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤
It's so amazing! I love when I get that sound, It's as if my antenna has just been tuned in.
what do you mean by the creative voice of possibility? I'm so interested, I just did this for the first time and already held my breath for 2 minutes almost, It's crazy!
@@janjansen2091 I guess the best way to describe this is; completely relax the mind (which usually takes a few minutes. The mind always wants to analyze, try and project results, calculate situations and formulate judgments..... and or race to the next thought without you really understanding that these are just thoughts.) When the mind starts calming down it might go into a panic mode because it wants to think. However after a few minutes it will stop racing from thought to thought. At this moment focus on the feeling of just observing your breathing in softly and exhaling gently. If you are really alert and relaxed you will feel a slight surge of energy at the gap of space between the inhale breath and the exhale breath. I know this might sound crazy but that space of time is infinite and the energy there limitless and it can transcend anything into your being. Once you realize that you are feeling that energy, your mind will start racing more ideas into your brain, because it wants control.
Its like trying to catch the "blue bird of happiness" we are mesmerized by it, but we can't hold on to it. I hope you can understand. Peace.
@@andrewashington8562 wow that sounds absolutely crazy, thanks for the explanation!
Been doing this method every day for four months now. It gets easier, and more rewarding I promise! The first month was good but tought. Month 2 and three I did a slightly slower version, which helped me learn the breathing better. month 3 I consistantly added a second round.
Recently, I added a third round and pushups and squats during the retention of round three. HOLY MOLY. I'm releasing endogenous DMT into my brain! I'm feeling the tingles deep in my organs. I'm taking a cold shower after and feeling absolutely amazing. Stick with it everyone! This is for real, this is powerful, and this is beautiful.
Did it help you release pent up emotional energy and repressed pain???
Alex White , does Wim recommends to increase gradually or you have to do 3 rounds every time?
Alex White does Wim recommends to increase the round gradually or you have to do 3 rounds every time from beginning?
Did you feel dizzy and light-headed at first? I cannot do five of those quicker breaths at the start without feeling like I’m ready to blackout. I have always taken time to deep breath throughout my day... but this felt off. Any suggestions?
@@languagelover9170 Yes!
I am currently in rehabilitation for the fourth time due to various drug additions and doing these breathing techniques feels 100x better than any of the drugs they are pumping into me to relax me and wind me down (Diazepam, Serquel etc..).
Absolutely shocked and amazed. I felt like I was floating 5 inches off my hospital bed and in a complete state of tranquility and peace. Thank you!
Good luck.
wishing you the best! This is indeed amazing!
@@braddonachie9567 Thank you!
@@Zervive Thanks a lot, Zervive!
I quit smoking recently. Do it! Purging the trash from your body is freedom.

I have never tried such an amazing practice and technique.. It feels unbeleivable i cant describe it..
Couldnt hold my my smile when he says you did it man..
Big thanks to this channel and super big love to the guy who is speaking in it
This has changed my life. Everything has become easier, tasks are not a high boulder to push anymore. I’m so much more present and I can focus on my goals with ease. I wanna take god for placing a man like wim on this earth, people like him are needed to impact and change so many lives. God bless you wim
I was out running, and me and my sister met a 90 year old man named Hicks and we asked what his greatest life lessons were .. and he said “Love your neighbors becasue they are your lifeline” and also “Never go to bed mad about anything” .. and as I left, I said to enjoy your day.. and he said “I always do, because I woke up today”
And then we saw our neighbor outside and went to her and met her. Her name is Laura and she’s and older women and she was just taking her husband to the hospital for some treatment and we shared some love and kindness to her and made her day 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Beautiful, thank you for your comments x
TAKE A DEEP BREATH Oh much love! I use this video twice a day, and I tell others about the method and instantly refer them to this video for training.. after the safety brief haha ☺️
i experienced bliss. the very first day i tried this. i couldnt stop laughing. it just felt so good to be alive! i recommend that everyone try this!
I thought i was alone in that feeling haha I used this for the first time two days ago before bed and I honestly couldnt stop laughing or smiling I loved the feeling. Planning on using this every day morning and night.
Vladimir Putin glad you are experiencing it aswell me Putin 🙏
As a recovering smoke addict, this is a huge blessing. The fact that I could even hold my breath for 2 minutes even after all of the damage I put on my lungs just shows how helpful this is. God bless!
I lost it...... I was overwhelmed with tears. 1st round I felt something, something great and 15 or so breathes in I started to cry, I felt something simmer then just boil over I was balling......i couldn't finish up my round. I held my breathe for 2 minutes, never in my life have I done anything like that. I don't know how to thank you but I know..(SO I THANK YOU KINDLY Mr. HOF)..... it will be something I've never done in my life!!!!
I have been doing Wim Hof method for the last 3 years. My life changed in many ways. All the love, all the power! Thank you Wim
Ωραιος πετρο!
I've been doing the beginner video with wim Hof for over a year on and off, but this one is a new freaking level. My brain went somewhere else and the sense of peace and calm. I feel from this brain reset is amazing. I can't believe they don't teach this stuff in schools
Just have to be another person to confirm this does work. I’ve seen a lot of sceptical methods about changing the body but I just tried this one for the first time and I can say I would NEVER have been able to go a minute without breath before trying this. Crazy... only trying this takes a few minutes of your life, please give it a whirl.
Everyone needs this in their life. I am on day 3 of which I've done it twice per day. Tonight I just got done with 6 rounds. I hallucinated. Visions of my 3rd eye. Black, blue and purple colors. Totally unreal. The most calm and relaxed I have ever been. Totally addicted. Thanks for sharing this video.
“Third eye”
Do you breathe in thru your nose? Or mouth?🤔
@@elizabethammon978 It’s always best to breathe through your nose, as it oxygenates the blood better. However, if you have a deviated septum, congestion or something else that doesn’t allow a big fills breathe, through your mouth is just fine.
@@slasher6547 Settle down
@@JAK3THETUB3nice, where did you hear about this? I’ve been doing the wim hof breathing for about 4 years but I’ve only ever beathed through the mouth as I find it easier to get a super full breath and totally fill my lungs. Maybe I’ll try it through the nose only too
Precious treasure of a video, has served me for years
This is the greatest thing I've found on the internet. Thank you SO much. It's like a daily dose of endorphins just sitting in a chair. I like to do this sitting in my computer chair in the dark with my eyes closed. After you do the intense breathing and you get to holding your breath, try to focus on just existing. Be nothing and no where. I like to pretend I'm just floating in space. Try putting your arms above your head when you hold your breath. If you can't make it the entire two minutes just take 1 deep breath and hold it. It feels AMAZING. How can you feel so alive and not be breathing?
I have been doing casual meditation for several years about once a day. So I’m no stranger to “spiritual work”. I just did this breathing exercise for the first time. Multiple times I wanted to cry because how much joy I experienced, and love for everyone. Tingling sensation through my body. Holding my breath last time and when last round ended for about 30 seconds I experienced like there was nothing around me but me, then the world slowly crawled back into my awareness. Definitely a very powerful and unique method, recommend it to everyone, will be doing this every day. By the way first round I made it 1:36, 2nd 1:47, and 2:00. 👍
Bravo!! 🎉❤
Stopped using this for a long time and now I’m asking myself why. Breath work really is a game changer 💪🏻
Did anyone felt your whole body vibrating not only inside but outside to while doing this meditation or is it just me? Loved loved doing this ❤🙌
Been doing this for a few days amd yes yesterday i felt it quite prominently....feels good
Awesome technique. But in the last round I only hear when Wim says "let it go", I think I lose my mind and I have a "blackout". Anyone notice anything similar?
@@oktom818yes that happens to me too, it’s the oxygen regulation that affects your body, my ears also pick up sound different, like it’s damped or something, all part of the meditation don’t worry!
I feel my hands and feet tingle, and this is weird to say but I can feel the blood vessels open and expand in my brain, my head gets warm and i can feel the blood flow increase. Literally feel the benefits in real time while practicing. It really is something else..
@@Rayuga99 feels good eh
You have no idea how much this video changed my life! THANKS!!!!
Thank you a lot, brother! I came here with a chaotic state of mind, feeling horrible, couldn't recognize my feelings, and so on. In the beginning, my mind resisted a lot, but just after the second round, it surrendered. I am leaving with peace in mind and much more awareness of my feelings. ❤
This works! I've only been doing this for two days now and I feel amazing. This will remain a daily routine for me. I will live to be two hundred years old!
I'm glad you are finding benefits, too. Wim Hof's method changed my life, and I bet it will change yours as well. I do the three cycles with this video every day then some push-ups to get a little blood flowing and then some stretches. My heart rate always drops to a nice and easy level, while my oxygen saturation goes up.
@@tyanite1 so did it also helps to protect you from cold
lol
For each day you practice you gain 100 years of life expectancy, starting daily 3 years ago you should live to be about a thousand. Gg
I have been using this video for 4 yrs now, thank you for putting into the world x
First time I didnt feel much.. this time I got a full body flush feeling. Felt amazing and saw light geometric patterns and vivid purple. 😮😮😮
Having heard about the benefits of yoga and meditation, I recognised that it helped a lot of people. I understood the benefits on a intelectual level, but I never experienced anything special when I tried it. Then I came across this breathing technique, tried it, and I finally understood what all the fuss is all about! For people who are too much in their heads, this will give them an understanding of what "embodiment" actually means.
I've been doing this breathing meditation for about three weeks now. I've tried others but this is my favorite. I consider it a meditation because during the retention period I feel immense love and gratitude. Ive also found other meditations I do afterwards that I get into stillness immediately. Thanks Wim Hof!
Wow reading this comment section put me in tears… all the people this is helping remove themselves from fearful state , which we have been programmed to be in this state so we are easily controlled and this is the cure too experience love and joy by breathing properly removing yourself from that fearful state and connecting with your true self.. I did 1 round and just felt such intense joy and love. Bless you Wim…
I make a pact to integrate this into my daily life and will post updates on
this comment! 1 day in!
Made it up to 2:35 day 4!
I LOVE THE POWER OF HIS VOICE . IT'S DEMANDING ... PHUCK YES !
Never gets old. This is my daily practice as well as doing a meditation for 5 minutes 3 times a day
This video has helped me for years
WTF.... Didn't think could hold my breath for 30 seconds let alone 2 minutes!! Am astounded.... And AWAKE!!! We are not worthy Master Hof!
That was absolute, unadulterated, magnificent, perfection!! I can't believe breathing could be so exhilarating!! (Don't let the government know about this or they will start taxing our breaths!!)
Thanks for taking the time. 💟😁

You are doing great ! Many others have given up or worse in your situation. The fact you are on this shows your path does not end here and you have much more goodness to give and experience!
As someone who suffers a lot with their mental health this is life changing. My best friend passed away recently and I fell into a deep slump, on top of that I've been working a lot. Today I took an ice cold shower and tried this. I honestly feel amazing, my whole body felt warm and buzzed and my mind just felt clear.
I have been doing the exercises according to this particular WH video for years now and as long as I do it without fail, I do not fall sick AT ALL but if for whatever reason I stop for a week or so, then it’s a slow retreat to the bad old days.
Many thanks WH for your selflessness.
As someone told "it's like hygiene, you have to wash your body and clean your house regularly not to get sick" so here the same 😉
You are absolutely right and I agree 💯
Same as you 😊 I have been watching this exact video for about 7 years haha. It’s just perfect
Yes, what a great thing this Dutchman has done.
Doing this wh exercise made me realise my soul is past away. Totally emotionless, pure emptiness. Only stress and tension, no relieve or rest. Doing the wh used to make me feel something inside, emotion, rest, relieve, energy. I also used to be able to find a complete state of calmness when holding my breath for 5 or even 7 minutes, but now im only able to hold my breath for 1½minute.
This is although a very helpful video one of the best versions of the wh exercise on youtube.
Thanks.
I'm going to do thing daily! Holy shit it is so powerful. Day Two: Even more powerful then the first day, I had a whole out of body experience and felt like I was floating. It felt like I was on acid. To all the people wondering it just depends on your personal experience. Some days it's not as dramatic as others but I do it everyday still. It helped my anxiety and depression. The main thing is you feel really tingly. (You dont see anything so dont be worried). The main thing is you need to keep trying of you dont feel anything.
doing it wrong then
Im a watermelon wait how long does it last because I want to be in control
Mark 34212
did you feel full body tingling as well or am I doing something wrong
Im a watermelon Q
Christian Dungan No that’s right I feel the same thing, it’s like a calm euphoria. Makes my ears ring tho :)
This is amazing. Thanks to Koa Smith, who recommends this video. After the first round, I had tears coming up and felt lighter. I also opened my eyes and saw colors and light in a more vivid and limpid way. After round 3, it’s like I’m floating sitted on my bed,. The power of breath is spectacular , thanks for that ❤ you brought magic into my day and for more to come ❤
❤❤❤ the best wim hof session. Explains and motivates you, like your in a live session.
Whatever your here for tough times never last I’ve been through the worst rock bottom it only gets better time is the biggest healer 🙏🏼
This IS life changing....beautiful. Thank you Wim Hof for your sincerity, your energy, your aliveness and sharing these techniques to us

Godbless wim hoff. Thanks to his honesty and simplicity and obviously to his method i can enjoy my life again
This really helps me calm down my heart rate a lot. Last night after I came back from work I had heart palpitations due to stress of the job. This breathing exercises took them away for me. I felt so calm after the 3rd round, my heart was back to normal and beating at 60bpm.
If anyone is stressed out, this exercise will help you a lot :)
Thank you so much for your comment, I just tried it for the first time and already notice the difference. So glad to hear it helped you.
combine it with the cold too
Can I do this before bed ?
@@jamelerzaigui6569 yes you can :)
This is the greatest meditation I’ve ever encountered!
I do this exercise every morning and night, and let me just say I get a euphoric experience every time! If you can make the time, try doing it for yourself. More specifically, I like to do this right after my morning prayer (just before coffee and breakfast) and again while lying down in bed just before falling asleep.
Remember the rules guys:
1. Safety is first! Do not do this while driving, operating heavy machinery, or anything that can put you in harms way. Be sure you’re in the comfort of your own environment and have your full body relaxed by either sitting down or lying down.
2. Try your best to perform the exercise on an empty stomach.
3. Never ever force yourself to go too far where you may faint. If you stay consistent with this routine, you’ll find yourself breathing better and holding your breath for even longer and truly connecting more with your body.
4. Breathe with your diaphragm, not your chest and shoulders. Focus on your body and notice if you’re moving your shoulders every time you take a breath. If so, try relaxing your shoulders and start the exercise by exhaling all of the air out of your body first.
Good luck everyone and the moment you find yourself doing this properly, you’ll find yourself in the clouds by third round.
I'm going to try before bed as well.
Agreed! I've been doing this for about a week now and I fall asleep maybe a sentence into, "Dear Lord, thank you for the life you have given me!" It's like a sleeping spell! Breathing meditation followed by prayer followed by near immediate sleep!
Also, thanks for the tips about the whole shoulder/chest breathing. I think I've been pissing myself off trying to breathe deeper with my chest and shoulders... and while I enjoy the tingling euphoria, I hate the effort and frustration I get trying to breath deeply. I've been smoking since I was 16 and I'm 36 now. Damned cigarettes/vaping garbage.
Issack Vaid excellent tips. Just what I needed to see regarding chest/shoulders. Thanks so much
It's not meditation. It's a breathing method.
Mel hdz you can meditate while you do it. It’s great! I like to meditate immediately after I do the breathing. Best meditation I have ever done!
There are other Wim Hof Guided videos but this is my go-to, daily vid. This is the only one I need. Wim Hof’s voice makes a difference
As tears falls from my eyes, my body feels as if I'm floating. Tingling head to toe. My eyes are closed I'm seeing colors spin, spiral and twist around. Thank you.
Same here. Amazing stuff.
I was doing this because I’m a runner and JESUS CHRIST, this is a great thing, I’ll be doing more of this
❤️
Did u find it improved your cardio at all?
@@TheeRealMcCoy It helped a little bit but it mainly help with keeping my breathing under control.
SAME. Increases performance and perceived effort goin' waaay down. Love this. Keep it up!
Crying/grieving is safe and a natural detoxant . It opens pathways deep inside of us that are getting covered in layers of spam, as nature intended us to detoxify and to feel her love.
Had a buddy walk me through this video the first time. It's the first time ever finding something to control my thoughts. I can honestly say this has changed my life and how I view everything. Maybe thats extreme to some but there's no other way I feel about this. I remember uncontrollably smiling the first time because I just couldn't believe that breathing was all I need. Life isn't as hard as society makes it. Happy breathing✌️
holy crap
AMAZING!
i will do this every day.
for what do we need drugs when we have our magnificent body an mind!
All day i felt depressed and low energy.
then i was doing this.
a little afraid of the effect at first after 2 minutes into the routine.
my hands, legs, stomach and lips felt increasingly number into the 3rd phase
but i could hold my breath for over 2 minutes in the last phase
during the breath hold of phase 3 i felt like i had to laugh. i felt so much joy!
in the end I felt all the energy in my body!
and i laughed for 20 seconds straight
i jumped of and thought what was i doing all day long? wasting time!
now i feel more productive and energized
akaPuppetmaster dudeee i had the exact same experience, i busted laughing at the last breath on 3rd round, some guy told me that feeling is the endorphins and a whole lot of other brain good feeling chemicals being released, it’s euphoric
How's it going? You still doing it? If not, this is a reminder to feel the energy again.
@@DuckTape747 DUDE WOW, i haven't done it for a long time now and it's been passing through my mind to start to practice it again, this is the most obvious sign.. i will start again now
@@ChainsTheChef888 Haha yeah I somehow felt that you needed to be reminded. You're welcome.
Chains You still doing it?
First day held my breath for 45 seconds , second day 1:05 , third day 1:30! I’m gonna keep working up to 2 Min.
yes first time..lasted only one minute
Without Air: 1:30 with 2:30
Before the Video: 1:00 with Air
Goal: 4 min (with Air)
My sons convinced me to start the Wim Hoff training. I changed i a different person: so strict in breathing every day, so strict and crazy about jumping into the cold lake with 16 degrees celsius....and I will stick to it day by day! I realized that everything in life is a matter of perspective and of positive attitude. Thank you a thousand times Wim!
When I do this in the morning, immediately afterwards my stomach begins rumbling as if begging me for food. I get the ear buzzing too. Amazing intense experience!!
I tried this for the first time yesterday & right after round 2, a tingling/static like sensation began to travel across my hands. Then I bursted out laughing uncontrollably followed by a deep feeling of gratitude. What happened next really through me off though because I had never experienced it. I saw energy. Very similar to incense smoke. Energy was traveling in front of me. It was also coming off my left hand. This breathing technique is truly something special!!!
Practice with this video every day. The only ever “favourite” video in my RUclips history... give it fully! No hesitation
I did a holiday and fell out of routine and the anxiety and depression came back . Here's to getting back into good habits
Today I drank a little wine. then after a while I did the exercise ..... Then I could only hold my breath for one minute. Usually 2 minutes and more. It showed me that drinking alcohol doesn't feed my body well with oxygen. I'm thankful for this realisation,,😉
I’m so glad to see so many people on the path. You don’t realize that there are people all around you pondering the universe for themselves. Doing so just as people like Aristotle and Tesla once did. We are the universe and we have come to life to experience ourselves. For so long, however, those who have realized this have remained in the minority. I implore you: spread these ideas and these realizations with the people around you. We must all do our part to push humanity forward. Cheers fellas :)
I tried this yesterday from another video I watched and made it about 30 seconds. I have been a pack a day smoker for the last +20 years. Today I found this video and made it 55 seconds during round 1, 58 during round 2, and a full minute with a deep breath hold for 10 seconds followed by the other 50 seconds. The feelings coursing around my body are something I don't know if I have ever experienced before. Even now, minutes after watching the video, I still feel something, and it feels really good. I can only describe it as a hieghtened sense of awareness. Love it.
Hope it helps kick the addiction!
Quit smoking! It is liberating! I did it 4 months ago after 15 years. I feel way better already.
Give yourselves time to heal.. your body needs it more than an anxious mind. I'm coming off a year long vocal injury. I would do this every morninng for 5 months straight until I started to feel better and sing again.
I have pretty much recovered from it until recently I relapsed into the same sore throat feeling that I had felt for months and months. I went back to this video and can say you can control your body's/immune response to pain and sensitivities. We need this to calm ourselves down. I hope you all are benefitting from this as much as I am.
I Have Being Doing This Seriously for About a Month Now and My Lung's Capacity to Intake Air Has Quintuplide... I Started By Being Able to Counting Only to 15 and Now I Have Reached Even 80 Counts.... Not to Mention That I Breath Better and Can Feel My Body Getting Repaired... It Is Just Fenomenal. I Expect to Reach the Sky By Continueing This Practice Into My Daily Life Long Routines!!!!!!!!!
I Am Certain That Everybody Should Include It Into Their Daily Healthy Habits for Life!!!!!!!
Wim has got the right way to teach. One wants to follow his instructions. Afterwards I feel so good. Tinkling in my whole body.
It’s encouraging to see so many views on this..it’s good to know people are putting in the work to naturally better there lives. 💚
I thought I was only one who cried but it wasn't. I felt lighter after heavy tears left my body... I have no words to describe how thankful I am for this meaningful experience 🙏
Today morning was the first time I tried this for the whole three rounds and I can't even explain how I feel. There was a loud buzz and deep sensations from my head to toe and that's something I've never experienced before. I've noticed that when you inhale after breath retention, your brain gets all choked up on that oxygen which really helps it to get super active. Considering how I feel after one session, I'll definitely incorporate this twice in my daily routine. So much gratitude to Wim Hof
On a month of doing this exercise now.. I can say with confidence this is truly amazing, the breathing gives me so much clarity and energy, along with cold showers. I do it morning and before bed love the feeling. Wim hof thank you for this gift, you truly are an amazing man. Wish the world was full of people like you.
Someguy do you shower right after breathing?
Wonderful wonderful wonderful wim hof sir you are doing great service to the humanity sir you are a saint universal good human being God bless you
The guy I am talking to introduced me to this and oh my lord... When we did it together and it was my first time, it was euphoric when I finally inhaled after 2 minutes of holding my breath the other night. Now I'm doing this again myself and did the two minutes the first two rounds then the last round I went until I couldn't hold it anymore and made it to 3 minutes and the inhale felt the most euphoric. My whole body was in a buzzing state and it was the best feeling ever! I love this so much
Keep going its amazing
This has changed my life. Truly amazing.
What has it helped for you?
@@pw1874 hello.. a year later but I'll answer. It has helped my anxiety.. it just makes me feel better, all aspects of life improve when you feel better. I'm only now going to start doing the cold exposure therapy part of the method... challenge yourself and force yourself to do it everyday for 7 days and see for yourself.
@@grosebud4554 brilliant, thanks for the response 🙌
Back to this after many months. Feels so amazing. I should never have stopped. Will not stop this time.
This will help get you through the tyranny we are experiencing. Breath it all in
I just want to say thank you from my heart for making this. I just did it for the first time. The feeling after I finished has me in tears right now. I can’t ever remember feeling this good in my entire adult life.
I just did 60+ Chest push ups effortlessly after this.
The oxygen makes working out very easy, and body exercises a lot better.
While holding you breath after each set, exercise then! and do each set.. it works wonders.
When I started I could only hold my breath for 20 seconds. Now I can do the full 2 minutes. Never give up.
I think this is good to prevent Cancer too because your PH level increase so we get our bodies more alkaline, Cancer dont grow in alkaline bodies only in Acid bodies, Cancer dies when there is more oxygen in our blood and this exercise put a lot of oxygen in us. Our PH should be more Alkaline than Acid. Thank you! God bless you👌👌
This is a magnificent feeling....do it and experience an amazing feeling
Bullshit pseudoscience
this is incredible and everyone should be so lucky to experience this technique. Does anyone else yawn like crazy with tears streaming down their face, or is it just me 😂 I read it’s energy being released from the body. thank you for this miracle Breathwork video!
michelle omg I do!
Lmfao I yarned by you typing this 🤣🤣🤣
I also tend to yawn when doing it. I wonder why.
Its wonderful. I have an ear infection and an infected cyst... yucky, I know! I’m waiting to see my doctor tomorrow but in the meantime this is making me feel so much better! Which in turn I know is helping me to heal.
This breathing is going to save my life. I have to overcome illness. Relieve stress and become ed an even better me.
Best wishes to you, Pam!
Amazing, I'm still smiling after doing this! It is scary to do but the hardest and must rewarding part is pushing through the fear and finding no fear on the other side.
We are all incredibly powerful!
I closed my eyes as I held my breath and imagined myself floating through space. So close to 2 minutes without breathing... can't wait to try again tomorrow.
I never knew, i tried it without and it was 20 seconds, with the technique after 1 time of watching the vid it was 2 min and 10 sec, Amazing man, truly amazing....
