I've taken cold showers for around 4 years now (hard to believe it's already been so long). Like most people, cold water used to be terrifying for me. It would take me 20 mins just to work up the courage to jump in a pool,, my showers were 45+ mins long with sculding hot water and I couldn't even force myself to get out of the shower until the hot water ran out. If you were to tell the younger me that I take cold showers when I'm older, I would have laughed in your face... Fast forward to now and cold showers are the most important part of my daily routine. It has changed my life in many ways but to keep it short I'll just list 10. 1.) A lifetime of severe exima, dandruff and dry eyes completely cured. 2.) Seasonal allergies, cured. 3.) Immune system, stronger. 4.) Ability to "step" into discomfort increased. 5.) Quit taking adderall and caffiene for work thanks to the increased mood and energy levels. 6.) Reduced bipolar and ADHD symptoms. 7.) Lower stress levels 8.) Increased tolerance to stress 9.) Weight loss, increased metabolism (no more man boobs) 10.) Faster recovery as well as reduced back, muscle and joint pain. The list goes on but there's 10 ways cold showers changed my life. If you're someone who is thinking about starting, hopefully this gives you the necessary inspiration to take that first step. Best of luck!
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I personally would like to hear more examples of the changes that have progressed 😊 I‘ve personally taken cold showers, but I have trouble with consistency. My last cold shower I physically felt the positive impact when focusing on my breaths. Deep and thorough was what seemed to be the key for me. So, I feel torn; I understand remaining present and in control my body and mind, but to turn the shower temperature control the other direction…. Ha 😂
I also suffered with dry itching eyes before I started 2 years ago. Completely gone now and I don't even think about it anymore. Social anxiety is less every day even though I'm a complete failure at life. I almost never feel sick anymore. I still do all the things I usually do like eating way too much chocolate and playing video games 24/7. I also can confirm less bodily pain and much more energy and before my mind drifted off all the time and now it almost never does. It's like all the shit just cleared up. I still suffer in my mind because I haven't accepted all my bad life decisions and who I am yet, but I'm getting there. I've mostly only done short cold showers and I do them every day, but these last months I've had some cold plunges into the cold sea. The sea felt great. I'm still a bit scared of the cold and it feels like the wariness is burned into my soul.... The only fault in my body today is I can't get rid of some muscle twitching in my elbows, but it feels like it's healing too. Before I started 2 years ago it felt like I was dying every day.....
I had my first cold shower today after feeling anxious, depressed and unsettled for years! The cold water felt like an absolute REBIRTH!!! I can't fully put into words how amazing I feel. Thank you
It really does. I always did breath exercises to get over anxiety and depression episodes. I’d bite onto my arm without breaking a bone or tearing at it to remove flesh, instead of doing worse things like slicing it. To focus on that rather than my downwards spiralling energy and thoughts. In order to be able to properly focus on my breathing as i began a breathing exercise. And it’d always help. That, and escaping into fiction 😂
I met three ladies on the beach yesterday who followed Wim and actually had just taken a plunge in the ocean on the coldest day of the year so far! This was in Montauk NY. They looked ecstatic!!!
Have been doing cold showers for last 4 years and will never go back. The reward that you get is priceless, the calmness, feeling happy, the feeling of alertness, being able to focus better, it's a wonderful feeling.
@@AlbPerNil how about adaptation to the cold. If you are someone who gets out in nature in the summer when it is hellishly hot for hours on end you eventually adjust to the Heat. And when you walk in somewhere that has Air Condition it's frigid. If you spend time in the cold, be it a shower or outside you will adjust and then heat will become adverse to you. I'm a beginner at this and it's winter here. I've been walking around in shorts and a t-shirt and making campfires at night freezing my booty off but it's paying off and it feels great. When hot water hits my body now it feels scalding and I know it is too freaking hot. Also I have found that if the water is cold enough it almost feels hot as in scalding). You asked for a benefit, how about being able to walk outside in the winter in shorts and a t-shirt and be comfortable! I've done this while walking into grocery stores through the refrigerated aisles. Lastly, how do you think all of the animals survive the winter? Our creator gave all of the animals a winter coat, but we were made in His image and cannot endure cold weather? That doesn't make sense to me that the animals can survive something that we cannot while we are the Apex on the food chain.
I just cannot seem to get started with the cold shower. I literally recoiled when I felt the first couple of cold water on my body and had to abort the effort immediately.
@@Ace01234kimagine thinking cold water will make you have a heart attack, the human body isn’t retarded, it’s made for survival, if sudden cold water was dangerous we would not be here as a species today
I love you Wim ‼️ I came across your videos in 2014 when I was in my lowest with sciatic pain on my left side I honor you sir ‼️ God bless you ‼️ I commend your work ‼️The cold showers are truly physically,spiritually,mentally really uplifting it is not the victory,if not the journey you’ll soon hear your ego holding you back ! that’s the fear! we all have to let go and just fight through it and silence that killer frenemy “ego” Freeing the mind to consciously be aware of your breathing is key for me You don’t think you just react ! #WimHof#LifeSaver💯🙏🙌👏🤙💪
Hi Wim, right before I watch the rest of the video, you are great. Thank you for reaching out to so many people. It is possible to touch thousands, maybe millions of lifes... and change them to the side they need. I found you in german television dozens of years ago... think you had a bit of struggle with a cold drop at Wetten dass 🙂 I had one too at the first real date with my better part. I am a multiplicator for you as well as Tomi, the firestarter, who showed me that I was right in my interpretation of your art of life some weeks ago. And I use your method and support you via the app. Some years ago I paddled over five hours at less then five degrees celsius with a kayak in a river in central Germany, the videos are online since.... I just don't know. Currently I am trying to heal my and my sons Asthma... why not? There is only one person to step over the frontier and that's me. Thank you so much for spending all those years on that mission. Stay healthy and be the torch of life for all around here. Have a wonderful time, a wonderful life and I hope to soon read of you. Support Wim and his mission, all you people who are watching this. The cold.has not only teeth, it has the key to a life for you, you can't Imagine, if you have not tried it, try it. Just took my wonderful girlfriend to the cold outside. It worked for resetting the skin. As an asthmatican... sounds cool, doesn't it? I breath instead of avoiding it. It works... thank you. All of the people out there, share and like and subscribe to Wim, one of us, on his mission. I am not as crazy as you think... I am the father of five. And of those, who follow me 😉 Like to hear of you. Greetings Johannes
Awesome … everyone should give a go it is so very worth it’s so amazing for the body … the more you do it the better you get at it and your brain wakes up and lots of new ideas are bursting from you ❤
I gradually built up initially with cold showers working my way to two mins and then more easily to five. Now I take a cold shower for two mins to wash and then get into a cold bath for 11 mins. I feel great afterwards and strangely enough, even better if I clean my teeth before hand. Maybe not so strange when you consider that your gums are a gateway to your vascular system and bad gums affects your overall health. 😊
Rather than completely wimping out I've started with cooler showers but I know once I'm climatised cold showers is what it's all about I've been doing the breathing every day Sending all the power and all the love back your way Thanks Wim!
It's changed my life cold sea swimming,I look forward to winter swimming, followed by a cold shower at the beach,even wash my hair there. Game changer.
Wim Hof is one of heros - he has helped me so much !!! I keep telling others about him, but they are resistant. So I will continue to tell them until they try it !!!!
Thank you for your sacred message🙏🏼 mat I suggest tout to speak about the importance of thé quality of water where we take bath. Andy too, the diff between salut and sweet water... Thanks from Heart💖
I also started training my hands and feet in ice water since I always have cold hands and feet. It's been just a week but what a difference! Come.on guys! Let's perfect our body and health!
@@mimi1o8 I started with 2 minutes (it's hell, barely managed it lol), but after a few days I noticed that it gets easier and the freezing pain starts getting less. I combine it with breathing to fight the numbing pain. So far I started doing 3 minutes. I do both after each other. My advice - after you're done - shake your hands and feet for some time to get the blood back flowing. If after 30 minutes your limbs are still cold - put them in some warm water. All the love, all the power!
Why the training in ice water? Do they help your hands and feet to not be cold? Is it bad(for your limbs to be cold)? And if you are thinking I am a beginner, then well yes... you are right... and I have never been good at Biology.
All this information tells us that the craftsman who made this workmanship is great, accurate, wise, and most importantly of all, he has a mind, awareness, and awareness other than nature .
I hate taking cold showers, but I do it every night because it keeps me healthy. I am ready for an ice bath, I haven't decided when but it will happen before 2023. I've set my intention, maybe new years eve or even Christmas day...
Yeah, I've stepped it up from cold showers to baths this week. Just getting to the 2min in cold shower and then letting the bath fill up will help you ease into it better.
I started taking cold showers this summer and at the beginning it kind of sucked but now I feel absolutely nothing and I find it strange that a lot of people are struggling with that and I have no problem its as easy as blinking tho I remember the days when cold water on any part of my body except my arms was feeling like hell
We have a world in us. Everyone is a world for him-/herself. This have to move like the earth, the world we are living at. It's all nature, all connected :)
I started taking cold showers in summer because I didn't see in point in getting hotter than I already was or dumping heat and humidity into the house. For the heck of it, I continued into the winter. In this part of Canada, it sometimes hits -20 deg. C. Not sure why, but I'm addicted to them now. It just makes one feel super-refreshed.
U don't get a cough or cold? I tried them, in the beginning of the winter, I was okay but then when the temperature decreased a bit more, I caught a terrible cold, and now it reduces a bit, but then increases again after a few days and this cycle has been repeating itself 2-3 times now...
@ainternet_userisnteveryone524 Not that I've noticed, no. To be fair, I've only been doing it for two winters and this has been during the Covid pandemic so during that time I haven't had a lot of contact with others. Not much opportunity to catch a virus, nor has the cold temperature of the water had any effect on me getting coughs, fever, sore throat or anything.
What a motivator! He talks about practicing the theory, that all our body organs act as a heart, pumping blood while in movement. You don't have to prove the theory, just try and switch the shower temperature gauge colder from time to time and see what happens when you exercise, go up the stairs or walk faster.
I've taken cold showers since the beginning of the pandemic, but here in Peru the temperature of water coming out the pipe is around 15 °C. Although I have noticed some psychological benefits, I am sure that taking an ice bath would increase the benefits much further. So, I'm going to buy myself a big tub and use the ice Wim Hof style. :D
In winter I do normal hot shower first then turn cold for last 2:00 minutes, works like a charm for me cause I get warmed first after waking up then my body feels more ready for the cold shock
Are you doing your deep breathing before and during the cold showers? This makes all the difference for me personally. If you do about 15-20 very deep and intentional deep breath’s, and continue the deep breathing during the cold shower it prepares your body to succumb to the cold. Don’t brace against it. Melt into it as if you want and expect it.
How's it going now bro?? I'm almost in a week and man I can already feel the difference in my mentality. Hope you're journey is still continuing brother.
@@outlaw._.lazines I am continuing this bro. I feel great. My mind is calm and I am able to think better, concentrate better , talk in a measured manner! I cant believe all this is happening. Even sport is better as I am thinking better and able to concentrate on one point (tennis) at a time. My distractions like whatsapp and youtube are minimal (saw your reply on my mail). I am only hoping this is not a transitional phase. Thank you for your wishes. Shed more light on your progress too bro
I'm struggling whim. Every time I get into cold showers I seem to get Ill. Am I not doing them long enough? Or consistent enough? I always have to stop doing it because I go down with something...
That's very unusual, Wim says not to force it, so not to do more than you're comfortable with, listening to your conscience I guess. Try his breathing exercises first before going in the shower try and do no more than a minute, or maybe try lukewarm first then lower the temp little by little as you're in the shower
i ve taken cold showers for around 1.5 year and nothings changed. i still have skin problems,still feeling cold after i finish the shower. i am doing cold showers after work,not in the morning. is just working only for few people.
I’ve been doing cold showers for about 3 months now and have noticed a positive difference, just put it at the coldest setting take a deep breath and exhale as I step into it. Issue at the moment with this time of year (I live in the North of Scotland) is the water really is absolutely Baltic and when I come out after a couple of minutes I really struggle to stop shivering, I quickly put clothes on but still can take me a long time to warm up and stop shivering. Any advice??
He said in his videos that it’s ok to help warm up your body with warm water after the cold shower. For ex. 3-5 minutes cold shower and then 1.5 minute warm shower. Hope it helps.
I have a really important question and I would appreciate feedback from anyone on this? please, and that is that I started hydrating WHILE SHOWERING as well as during the day and found that very beneficial. my question is, any feedback on this, hot as opposed to cold liquid, and most importantly food.... I'm asking people who've been doing this a while if they eat before or after etc, thank you so much!
I used to keep my house heated to 70°F/21°C, but this winter I've set the thermostat to 52F/11C. No way I'm getting in a cold bath, but kudos to those of you who do.
Petechiae occur when tiny blood vessels called capillaries break open. When this happens, blood leaks into the skin. I have them from lifting 114 lb. dumbbell with my right arm bench pressing it up and back down 10 reps range of motion in all maybe at least 5 or 6 feet and I weighed just 119 lbs. right before a colonoscopy lol so that's A LOT of weight for someone my size. Happily I can say I didn't get them doing 30 minutes 60 degree fahrenheit cold bath. Interestingly(or not interesting what do I know lol) my cardiovascular system was more tired after running to the point I needed to to get my heart rate up to 192 beats per minute at 46 years old. If it's beating that fast in the cold in water is probably bad or at least not good for someone that's 46 like me but my heartrate wasn't even close to that speed although I didn't have a counter on my wrist at that time. :P
btw, what u canndo if u wanna begin cold showering u can start at the warmtth u normally shower and keep turning it colder untill u feel its uncomfortable and rlly cold. take good simple breaths and enjoy
Naw bro. If you have a cold and end up taking a cold shower you're just going to get more sick. Personally I just switch to a nice steaming shower or soke in a hot bath for 15 or 10 minutes. For me it helps clear my nostrils and it helps sweat it out. Drink lots of tea and water. Keep yourself moving also. Don't always wanna lay in bed. But rest if you need it bro. Sorry if I'm not much of help.
Idk it Never happens to me. Did you bang you're head? If not what's you're water intake, if you're training hard and not balancing you're water intake than maybe you should keeps water with u at all times brother. Sorry if I'm not much help
It's really person related because I am never sick and 2 times I try the cold shower and had direct a cold after its definitely not bad luck 2 times. So think need be careful with this kind of information because each body and person is different and works differently.
Question for anyone that might know: do cold showers have the same effect if you start with a hot one but during the shower decrease the temperature until it is eventually as cold as it gets?
I've taken cold showers for around 4 years now (hard to believe it's already been so long). Like most people, cold water used to be terrifying for me. It would take me 20 mins just to work up the courage to jump in a pool,, my showers were 45+ mins long with sculding hot water and I couldn't even force myself to get out of the shower until the hot water ran out. If you were to tell the younger me that I take cold showers when I'm older, I would have laughed in your face... Fast forward to now and cold showers are the most important part of my daily routine. It has changed my life in many ways but to keep it short I'll just list 10.
1.) A lifetime of severe exima, dandruff and dry eyes completely cured.
2.) Seasonal allergies, cured.
3.) Immune system, stronger.
4.) Ability to "step" into discomfort increased.
5.) Quit taking adderall and caffiene for work thanks to the increased mood and energy levels.
6.) Reduced bipolar and ADHD symptoms.
7.) Lower stress levels
8.) Increased tolerance to stress
9.) Weight loss, increased metabolism (no more man boobs)
10.) Faster recovery as well as reduced back, muscle and joint pain.
The list goes on but there's 10 ways cold showers changed my life. If you're someone who is thinking about starting, hopefully this gives you the necessary inspiration to take that first step. Best of luck!

First week - done amazing expierence :)
I started taking cold showers a week ago. I’m MUCH happier throughout my day, especially during the first 4-5 hours after the shower.
We have a world in us. Everyone is a world for him-/herself. This have to move like the earth, the world we are living at. It's all nature, all connected :)
I love this angel
with all the ... *TWO AND A HALF TIMES* 😡 that got my attention. I'm going straight to the cold shower, sir !
Get in that cold shower SIR! 😠
Meditation od also working very well ;)
Thanks Wim
I started taking cold showers in summer because I didn't see in point in getting hotter than I already was or dumping heat and humidity into the house. For the heck of it, I continued into the winter. In this part of Canada, it sometimes hits -20 deg. C. Not sure why, but I'm addicted to them now. It just makes one feel super-refreshed.
U don't get a cough or cold? I tried them, in the beginning of the winter, I was okay but then when the temperature decreased a bit more, I caught a terrible cold, and now it reduces a bit, but then increases again after a few days and this cycle has been repeating itself 2-3 times now...
@ainternet_userisnteveryone524 Not that I've noticed, no. To be fair, I've only been doing it for two winters and this has been during the Covid pandemic so during that time I haven't had a lot of contact with others. Not much opportunity to catch a virus, nor has the cold temperature of the water had any effect on me getting coughs, fever, sore throat or anything.
For some reason when he mentioned the circumference of the earth, I tried to imagine how thin my body would be to stretch the whole way round lol..
We appreciate you Wim! Keep doing what your doing.
How are you Wim, how are you doing?
Reading this in a cold bath!
Wisdom! ❄️🌀🖖
God bless u wim
My life will change today right now gonna take a cold shower every single day and only eat one meal a day ❤
The showers are a lot easier than OMAD for me. I usually do two meals a day.
What a motivator! He talks about practicing the theory, that all our body organs act as a heart, pumping blood while in movement. You don't have to prove the theory, just try and switch the shower temperature gauge colder from time to time and see what happens when you exercise, go up the stairs or walk faster.
Recommended to persons with high blood tension?Thanks!!!!
I am thirteen and have been going in my pool every night I cold water thanks you really help a lot.thanks❤
🙏 you are one of the most important person of 21st century m friend
I love you bruddah 🤙🏼
I've taken cold showers since the beginning of the pandemic, but here in Peru the temperature of water coming out the pipe is around 15 °C. Although I have noticed some psychological benefits, I am sure that taking an ice bath would increase the benefits much further. So, I'm going to buy myself a big tub and use the ice Wim Hof style. :D
Big Up Wim ❤
Se ve joven y vital!! 🤔💪👏👏
Im taking cold showers for exactly 235 days now, but its still really hard to take one especially in winter, which leads me to skip some showers
How long do you stand in the cold water for?
In winter I do normal hot shower first then turn cold for last 2:00 minutes, works like a charm for me cause I get warmed first after waking up then my body feels more ready for the cold shock
@@JJBerthume exactly how I do it. Followed by some breathing exercises and it’s a great way to start the day
@@ParisfromTexas I dont really know, ~2min cold shower, shampoo and again ~2min cold shower
Are you doing your deep breathing before and during the cold showers? This makes all the difference for me personally. If you do about 15-20 very deep and intentional deep breath’s, and continue the deep breathing during the cold shower it prepares your body to succumb to the cold. Don’t brace against it. Melt into it as if you want and expect it.
What is the breathing process for getting into the cold shower for the first time? You r a machine Wim.
Cold shower would help me with my knee pain? Thank you!
Yes but be in for 15-20min
Question: can your heart stop beating from taking cold showers/baths and does age matter if that was the case.
On day 4 of cold water showers . I feel amazing already!
How's it going now bro?? I'm almost in a week and man I can already feel the difference in my mentality. Hope you're journey is still continuing brother.
@@outlaw._.lazines I am continuing this bro. I feel great. My mind is calm and I am able to think better, concentrate better , talk in a measured manner! I cant believe all this is happening. Even sport is better as I am thinking better and able to concentrate on one point (tennis) at a time. My distractions like whatsapp and youtube are minimal (saw your reply on my mail). I am only hoping this is not a transitional phase. Thank you for your wishes. Shed more light on your progress too bro
@@masaiman26 appreciate the love bro. Take care man
I'm struggling whim. Every time I get into cold showers I seem to get Ill. Am I not doing them long enough? Or consistent enough? I always have to stop doing it because I go down with something...
That's very unusual, Wim says not to force it, so not to do more than you're comfortable with, listening to your conscience I guess. Try his breathing exercises first before going in the shower try and do no more than a minute, or maybe try lukewarm first then lower the temp little by little as you're in the shower
i ve taken cold showers for around 1.5 year and nothings changed. i still have skin problems,still feeling cold after i finish the shower. i am doing cold showers after work,not in the morning. is just working only for few people.
I’ve been doing cold showers for about 3 months now and have noticed a positive difference, just put it at the coldest setting take a deep breath and exhale as I step into it. Issue at the moment with this time of year (I live in the North of Scotland) is the water really is absolutely Baltic and when I come out after a couple of minutes I really struggle to stop shivering, I quickly put clothes on but still can take me a long time to warm up and stop shivering. Any advice??
He said in his videos that it’s ok to help warm up your body with warm water after the cold shower. For ex. 3-5 minutes cold shower and then 1.5 minute warm shower. Hope it helps.
@@consistentche3979 Any more info on this?
I have a really important question and I would appreciate feedback from anyone on this? please, and that is that I started hydrating WHILE SHOWERING as well as during the day and found that very beneficial. my question is, any feedback on this, hot as opposed to cold liquid, and most importantly food.... I'm asking people who've been doing this a while if they eat before or after etc, thank you so much!
Three times around the ice wall. Fitting.
I used to keep my house heated to 70°F/21°C, but this winter I've set the thermostat to 52F/11C.
No way I'm getting in a cold bath,
but kudos to those of you who do.
11?? wtf
Petechiae occur when tiny blood vessels called capillaries break open. When this happens, blood leaks into the skin. I have them from lifting 114 lb. dumbbell with my right arm bench pressing it up and back down 10 reps range of motion in all maybe at least 5 or 6 feet and I weighed just 119 lbs. right before a colonoscopy lol so that's A LOT of weight for someone my size. Happily I can say I didn't get them doing 30 minutes 60 degree fahrenheit cold bath. Interestingly(or not interesting what do I know lol) my cardiovascular system was more tired after running to the point I needed to to get my heart rate up to 192 beats per minute at 46 years old. If it's beating that fast in the cold in water is probably bad or at least not good for someone that's 46 like me but my heartrate wasn't even close to that speed although I didn't have a counter on my wrist at that time. :P
Would it matter if I take one once a week?
Is this good to do if have coronary artery disease, and stents?
Wise old man he is
Bạn chia sẽ thông điệp hành trình của bạn rất thú vị và hấp dẫn quá

To say i'm not very cool with taking cold showers is somehow strange. Isn't it?
Thanks for the reminder.
😞🤠🥶😵💫🤗❤
It's the ice man. I saw him on jontron.
Does it work for tinitus
What about ppl with anemia, can they do this ice bath?
🙌♥️🌲🌲🌲🌲✨
You’re the best.
I started take cold showers but then my family got a cold then i got a cold. Is it safe to continue cold showers while im sick? Thanks
Naw bro. If you have a cold and end up taking a cold shower you're just going to get more sick. Personally I just switch to a nice steaming shower or soke in a hot bath for 15 or 10 minutes. For me it helps clear my nostrils and it helps sweat it out. Drink lots of tea and water. Keep yourself moving also. Don't always wanna lay in bed. But rest if you need it bro. Sorry if I'm not much of help.
@@outlaw._.lazines great advice, thank u!
@@cassettedream much obliged. 👊🏼
Is it normal to have a headache and feel lightheaded during a cold shower?
Idk it Never happens to me. Did you bang you're head? If not what's you're water intake, if you're training hard and not balancing you're water intake than maybe you should keeps water with u at all times brother. Sorry if I'm not much help
Would you suggest any food that would clean up the blood from being thick. Sense American food is filled with junk
When he says "three" he reminds me of Gandalf.
How do I make my water freezing though ? It’s just cold but not extremely cold
Day 3 in with taking cold showers 🚿 👌 2 mins 😻🆒️❄️☃️ 🧊 🥶 AMAZING
Cappy larry’s that’s a good name for a restaurant
What if a person suffers of cyanosis ? When the nails turn bluish
This man is for real! He actually climbed Mount Everest twice, and in shorts! If you don’t believe me, check it out for yourself!
It's really person related because I am never sick and 2 times I try the cold shower and had direct a cold after its definitely not bad luck 2 times. So think need be careful with this kind of information because each body and person is different and works differently.
Do the cold shower before working out instead of after, after means less effective muscle building, if you don’t believe me look it up
Question for anyone that might know: do cold showers have the same effect if you start with a hot one but during the shower decrease the temperature until it is eventually as cold as it gets?
Sounds good. But , what if you have fibromyalgia?
Should you do WHM when I'll with chest infection? @wimhof
