I want to ignite your awe of your body, your mind, and your beautiful humanity. I do not mention my accomplishments to boast, but as a reminder that there is so much more we are capable of. Cold exposure and conscious breathing have been practiced for thousands of years. I’m not a guru, and I did not invent these techniques either. It’s true.ĭoing these things has earned me the nickname the Iceman, but I am no superhero. I’ve summited some of the world’s highest mountains dressed only in shorts. It includes swimming underneath a thick layer of ice for more than two hundred feet and standing packed in ice for hours at a time without my core body temperature dropping.

That includes running a half marathon above the Arctic Circle while barefoot, wearing only shorts, and a full marathon through Africa’s Namib Desert, without drinking any water. I have employed this method to accomplish feats believed by many to be impossible, setting more than two dozen Guinness World Records and confounding medical professionals in the process. Over the course of nearly forty years, I have developed and refined my method, called The Wim Hof Method, which is based on three simple, natural pillars: cold exposure, conscious breathing, and the power of the mind. The real spirit, the real experience of your mind and your body is one of happiness, strength, and health. But I’m here to tell you it doesn’t have to be that way. Maybe on a Saturday you’d sit and ponder a little bit with a nice glass of wine, contemplating philosophy and whatever’s going on in the world, but by Monday morning, you’re up and off to work again, and the stress begins anew. But consumed by the reality and stress of daily life, you entertained no such notions. Love will open you up to the power of your mind, and suddenly you find yourself standing before the abyss of your experience, sensing a soul you did not think was accessible, let alone controllable, as if it were some sort of abstract thing. To be in control of that emotion called life, in the purest way, you must experience it through the lens of love.
