Wim Hof: Record Breaking Ice Man

I get natural highs of the cold. I'm never sick anymore. I feel strong every day

Natural methods is really the answer to existing problems of chronic diseases

Battle it. Take the cold showers. Take the ice water. It's your warm friend and it

will protect you. I'm Wim Haaf. They call me the Iceman because I'm a multiple

Guinness World Record title holder in the cold. That could be running

marathons in shorts, beyond the polar circle, swimming under the ice where large

distances or going up mountains in snow barefoot. Nobody likes to be in anxiety

fear, PTSD, trauma, depression. But nobody knows how to find a sense of control

What we provide with these techniques is an absolute doorway into that control

within our own brain to restore the balance. I found something in nature and it works and it worked first with me. In 95 I lost

my wife by a suicide. I was left behind together with four children. I loved her

to death. I was in an emotional wreck but I had to go on because I had four children

little money, very little money. And there I found relief through the cold, through

exercising into the cold. In the cold you don't picnic. You just become still inside

The mind stops. This emotional, the thoughts, the sadness and all, it goes away. You have to

survive. That's what I learned. And I learned breathing, to be consciously in my breathing

It helped really to control my emotion and I get back into sense. What doesn't kill you

get out of it because there's always a solution. The techniques which are composing the method, three pillars. The first one is breathing

exercises. Breathing exercises that are able to get into the innate immune system

very deeply into our tissues, everything where normally we don't get. Now we get there

Two, the cold. The cold, gradually exposing yourself to the word cold

makes the cardiovascular system, the transportation system of ours, and that one is being stimulated and optimized through gradual cold exposure

Pillar number three, the mindset. It's neurological power you learn to control

within your brain, being able to tap into deeper parts of the brain. We show this in

brain scans and the professors there tell, yeah, this is a transformational technique

that will change mental health care. It's what they say. And they have learned to go past their pain. The pain threshold is the pain chemistry. They

got their mindset already to go past that. So everybody has a different threshold and

ultimately it is to get people in connection with their full potential

Natural methods is really the answer to existing problems of chronic diseases

both mentally and physical. I'm never sick anymore. I feel strong every day. I feel like

energetic every day. What is that? Because we lost a certain connection between brain and body

that's why we get these diseases. We are much more vulnerable to bacteria and virus

And that's what we have been shown, to restore the connection of brain-body

That record was nice, nice, nice. Great. But now it is serious. Healing people

that's what I want. Look into their method because this method is universal. Sincerely

to the skeptical people, I love you guys. I love the inquisitive mind. I challenge you

to show me wrong because I go for the truth. Nothing but the truth because we are the investigators
