I am homeless, I live in my car. After losing my young mother suddenly to death, my husband leaving me unexpectedly, being forced to sell my home after divorce, losing a lucrative job I'd fought for, and losing my extended family who turned their backs on my children and I after my mother's death in 2023... I didn't care to live, but I couldn't take my life. I had no will to fight to live...I didn't care one way or another about life...as a matter of fact, I beckoned death...he didn't come for me. I packed my car and left the town that I grew up in and moved to Texas, where I drive Uber and live in my car and try my best to LIVE again. Up until now, I've only gone through the motions of life. Meaning, I feel nothing, not even pain, or the bad emotions. I just tried the thing where Wim said exhale and hold your breath, and from first try, my heart BEAT thunderously and I felt SHOCK. 2nd time my brain recalled all the trauma of last year in 2 seconds, and tears welled up in my eyes. 3rd time, I was balling, crying so deeply...like I've never cried before in my life...and now I FEEL EVERYTHING!! My mind seems UNBLOCKED!! I can THINK, FEEL,....EXIST RIGHT HERE WHERE MY FEET ARE. whereas before, life felt unreal...like I was gone...not here!.. I'm intrigued!! How can I do more with this?
Sending you soooo much love 💗 One day at a time, one moment at a time, one breath at a time. Give yourself grace and take as much time as you need. You are so important 💗
Wim Hof is amazing! For four years I am struggling with depression. I took cold showers for 3 months and my mind was better than ever. I took increasingly colder showers until it was only cold water, for 10 minutes every day. I started to automatically do breathing exercises because of the shock. The breathing exercises are the ones increasing the body temperature. It was amazing. I stopped because something personal happened and I didn't have the energy to take cold showers anymore. When I was taking them, my body temperature increased in anticipation of my cold showers, I know it may seem crazy, but I was yelling in the shower and I could feel my cortizol level decreasing (stress hormone). When I think now of my cold showers I remember how it would calm me greatly. Today I will start my cold showers again. Healing comes in cycles, it's ok to to have ups and downs. Thank you Wim Hof!
Thank you for your comment. I have MS, take many tablets too and struggle paycheck to paycheck, with the lowest possible energy, but I will read the book and I will try ice baths.
Hi started with focusing on my health a couple of years ago. Stopped eating garbage food at office parties and did IF daily . Strangely. many of my peers found me odd. I was working out everyday. Taking walks around the grounds focusing on my health and I was happy...well to my shock my I was let go . After working at the institution for 10 years. My manager did not give a reason . I knew why- I did not conform to their way of life, so I was deemed strange. I had to look for a new job since I had a mortgage to pay and given my age it was difficult . Mind you I also had a son that was starting University. I was so stressed out. Stopped focusing on my health . I felt miserable. things are still not OK. But I started doing yoga again and IF . But after listening to Wim I felt inspired again. Thank you for your wisdom.
Nammyohorengekyo. Happiness, strength, health. Nammyohorengekyo unites them all in the spirit. Chant Nammyohorengekyo daily to your heart's content while focusing on your goals. Then take action. You will find yourself attaining them. This is personal responsibility. True individual happiness => world peace. Just as Vim says.
@@Feignlander with respect, yes it was clinical depression, trauma from childhood and lifelong anxiety. Wims way of life gave me something, I can't explain it in words, but this, mixed with a few other things I was doing, made me want to change and stop waiting for change to happen for me. Me, powerful? I would have never said so, but heating Wim talk about how we all have a power within we've forgotten about, it helped. It wasn't easy at all and it's still an ongoing effort, but I can say I'm happy for the first time in my life and that's because I found my power and I put in the work I needed to, to change my life.
Great doc I too love the guy! Awesome. My son is going to be a doctor. Pediatric Osteopath. Any suggestions? Besides working for code enforcement instead lol? They've got a cush job with great retirement. Tee hee
I've been ocean swimming year-round because of Wim Hof now for 9 years and it has changed my life! The breathing exercises helped me through anxiety felt after losing my father a few years ago. Thank you Wim, with so much love. And thank you for this, Steven.
The reason this podcast is so successful is that Steve listens so well and goes with the flow, even if it means submerging himself in cold water on camera.
Wim Hof is literally a blessing. I learnt about him in Dec 2023 and since then I've been religiously doing breath work. Started with 3x a day bt however my plan was to do it at least once a day. It's amazing how much relief you get within a few mins nd the anxiety which haunted you disappears instantly. I'll forever be grateful to the person who suggested him
My Dad was cycling around the Alps in his 80s. He never conformed and pursued many different jobs, but his constant was his strength of character and self-belief. We lost him a few years back and I miss him. He would have loved this episode. I think it would have helped him see that his way was okay-better than okay. Thanks, Hof.
Your dad hears your opinion and wants you to know he understands many more things now he is out of his physical body, and that he is happy. Also, he can soar over the tops of the Alps and get around a lot faster now since Spirits are light energy they move at the speed of light and with practice can manipulate energy to show physical signs they are still able to see and hear loved ones. I feel better about myself as I don't conform and go from one subject to another in study and various hobbies and ideas, and I have strong trust in my inner feelings and my character, and have total self belief in that I know I can learn or achieve what ever I put my mind to. Growing up I thought I was un able to learn due to the adults and school kids in my life telling me I was dumb or unco ordinated. I am so happy learning and growing and helping people in any capacity I can. Your description of your dad rang so true to my mind of myself I believe it drew your dad to me so I could pass on that message to you. God Bless you and your family 😇🥰🙏
My grandpa taught us that being active and taking a cold shower will keep you young and healthy. He lived to 100 and was a hiker, and mentally with it till the end.
Winter is a season that often brings a deep sense of gratitude for its unique beauty and profound quietude. The cold, crisp air carries a refreshing clarity, and the blanket of snow that often covers the landscape transforms everything into a serene, white wonderland. This season encourages us to slow down, offering a time for reflection and introspection as the world outside rests. The warmth of a cozy home becomes more appreciated, and the joys of simple pleasures, like sipping hot cocoa by a crackling fire or watching snowflakes drift gently from the sky, feel even more special. Winter's chill fosters a closeness among loved ones, as we gather together for warmth and comfort. It’s a time that reminds us of the importance of rest and renewal, providing a natural pause that allows us to be thankful for the quiet moments and the gentle beauty of a world at peace.
I do the 14 minute Wim Hof breathing exercises every other day then immediately hang in my inversion chair for 10 minutes - I can swim two laps underwater in a large pool and I'm 62 years old! It's a life changer, for sure!
The fact that you can HEAR him breathing, deeply and consistently, is a lesson in itself. I also thought, at the beginning of this episode, that he has A LOT of energy, especially for his age. It seems like he has more energy than I have had after exercise, food or a good night's rest...and I'm barely 30. Worth listening to. Again, thanks for the value!
My sister recommended Wim Hoff to me a few years ago. She said the breathing, cold showers and occasional ice baths were helping her with all the negative impacts from her 10 year battle with aggressive breast cancer, and the trauma she had stored inside from when she was partially run over by a truck 13 years ago. The Wim Hof method helped to lift her out of the depths of despair and find a reason to keep on living through all that pain and hardship. She passed away on August 16th this year, but her example to enjoy life to the full regardless of what it throws at you lives on. I have decided to do the breath work each day as well as a cold shower, and the impact I already feel is tremendous. Thank you Wim Hof for helping to give my sister and I peace, and thank you Steven for another excellent interview.
Wim is absolutely one of today’s true human super heroes! I’ve been doing morning cold showers since coming across his videos years ago and wanted to see if I could do for 2 weeks and that turned into the better part of 3 years
He did not "invent" these various types of breathing. If it helps someone feel good great. Don't forget he also advocates hyperventilating in water which has had lethal consequences. He's just a man and a flawed one at that. He shouldn't be viewed as a saint. He didn't go into the fact he walked away from all his young children to go live a selfish rouge existence when they had no mother.
Up until 4 years ago I suffered from crippling anxiety every single day for 3 years. I came across wims video on UA-cam and was desperate to stop these attacks I would of tried anything (which I did but nothing worked) I opened up to this. A video that said never get sick again. That day after the breathing exercises and cold water therapy I went from attacks every day to 1 or 2 a year and I can deal with them because of wims method. If you suffer, try it. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.
Over 10 years ago I also had a long period of suffering from severe anxiety. Back then I didn't know about cold water therapy, but I did learn about breathing exercises and that alone helped me so much overcoming it. Since I recovered I've only had a very few panic attacks and every time I could control them through breathing.
I have all the time in the world for wim, we dont know each other but he saved me from the pain of a deep depression. Ice baths / cold showers and breathing all released emotions and allowed me to heal. It sounds so airy fairy but its all very real and just works. A great man i will always have time for. Good interview.
I get the idea that Steven is a really flexible, adaptive and open minded host. Topics are inspirational, but seeing Steven work is just as inspirational 👌🏼
This man educates us! Why isnt this taught in schools? We live in a 3D society that wants us to hate ourselves and each other. Thank you for this incredible insight today to remind us that we have everything we need already inside of us! The world does not want us to know who we are. Thank the Lord for this man. He has proven and shown that the worse thing that can happen in your life does not have the ability to break you. We all have a choice in life no matter the circumstances. WE ALL HAVE A CHOICE!
No I’m sorry to say I agree with him because the true seekers in the world are few in number. For instance how many Made it through to the 1 hour 10 minute mark after the deep breathing exercises???? I’m 70 and I made it this far and will finished to the end and THEN I will share the beeJesus out of this video and watch a dozen more times myself. We are NEVER TOO OLD TO LEARN!!!
Wim, our lovely Dutch hero! For me a cold shower almost every morning (2 min)= *No more joint pain, *Happier mood, *No more palpitations *More present *No more panic/anxiety *No more flues in winter *Much calmer mind ❤
I did Wim’s cold showers for a whole summer. Taking it bit by bit I went from hating cold water in the shower to singing soul songs to myself underneath the freezing water. I stopped counting the seconds and minutes and just got out when I was bored showering. I could never do them in the cold season though. Btw, lady here, so ladies, don’t be afraid!
You could do them in the cold season though. The great thing about seasons is they gradually change. Little by little getting colder or warmer. It's a great way to ease into it
Fuck the media! They are there for the sheep. We that have our eyes open see trough the hypocrisy. You see what they did to the world during CowID? If media sais something, if government seems to care do exactly the opposite! Loved Wim Hoff and followed him for years and i am very thankful for his experience he shares with the world. Breathe in peaceful thoughts and take care of yourself. The rest, the negativity let it just run off like water on a duck
@@tanishanightingale a lot of problems. Gossip about Financial issues with family members, a lot of his breathing techniques are not his, but, for instance come from old yoga and ayurveda practices. And that is ok. But then he should mention his sources. There are also psychologists that think he has mental issues as well. You can also see it in the way he talkes, his passion could partly be driven by bipolar symptoms. I had the honor to ask him questions in a podcast, but he would disregard critical questions and there was not much reflection about these questions. To be honest, i think his way of living is still a copingmechanism. Luckily it did help a lot of people, but the question lies all arround his motives. You can see him regulating in this conversation as well. This all is not helping his cause, sadly enough.
To be honest, when this interview started off, I wanted to click off because Hof seemed a bit too "crazy" for lack of a better word; I was skeptical. But the more I listened, the less skeptical I got - I checked out the studies, they're accurate and reliable... It all seems so far fetched but it's actually true. This is mind blowing.
@@DrChristy I'm a dr as well doin my master's in psychiatry at Harvard the lessons i learned from podcasts like Jay ,Steven ,Mel and indeed Dr Peterson way better than Harvard thank you guys i i appreciate it
"probably to late" I feel that. I don't know how to live with it some days. I was trying my best but feel like I made all the wrong decisions. When I found out Wim was affected by the same tragedy as me, it gave me some hope that there is a way forward. It's been over a year though and that grief still shakes my soul. I can't stop missing her. Love yall.
There are certain types of pain that are not ever fully gone from your psyche and soul. You learn ways to cope with and overcome the trauma, even turn some of it around and help others heal from their trauma or pain. In other words the parts of your experience that you learn to heal and live with in a healthy and productive way becomes part of who you are. Don’t try to get rid of the trauma or pain. Learn how you can heal from it and help others to find some inner peace. We are all different people and we all need unique paths to heal. You have to try things until you find what works for you
Anything the Government say to eat i just do the opposite. I recommend reading “Health and Beauty Mastery” that book is a real eye opener about shocking stuff health industry is doing! I completely changed my habits
Finally our guy is in. It is amazing that you invited him in! Thank you for doing it and keep going, you are showing the world that our mind and health are connected. You are literally showing the world what fascinating creatures are we, the humans. Incredibly adaptable and able to learn. We motivate ourselves via each other. We can become stronger together, despite wars, despite negativity, despite anything dark in this world.
A very fascinating video, this brings back painful memories which i have been enduring. My relationship of 5 years ended 3 months ago. The love of my life decided to leave me, I really love her so much I can’t stop thinking about her, I’ve tried my very best to get her back in my life, but to no avail, I’m frustrated, I don’t see my life with anyone else. I’ve done my best to get rid of the thoughts of her, but I can’t, I don’t know why I’m saying this here, I really miss her and just can’t stop thinking about her.
Parting ways with someone you deeply cherish is an agonizing experience . I understand firsthand, having encountered a parallel situation at the end of my 6-year relationship. Driven by an unyielding determination, I explored every avenue to salvage our bond. Seeking guidance from a spiritual counselor proved pivotal , as their intervention played a crucial role in rekindling our love .
Fight against idolatry, your former companion is far from perfect and had to bring you something more in the fulfillment of your destiny. She is gone, another one can bring you even more. Change your mindset and work on this traumatic event. Break this idealistic conception you had of this woman
I found Wim Hof on a podcast during the pandemic and along with fasting, keto diet, breathing exercise, and cold therapy I've come off medication, lost 2 stone, improved my relationships with my family, friends and partner. Happy, Strong and Healthy.
carnviore diet is one step from keto diet that heals the body even quicker then keto diet. carnviore ch Dr Ken berry, dr chaffee, Shawn baker md podcast, home stead how, kelly hogan, no carb life = tons of testimonies on these of healing from people around the world.
I’ve been doing Wim Hoff for two years now. Changed my life. I would cry if I even thought I’d be somewhere cold. Now I don’t fear it, I am, at least in that respect, a totally changed person. Wim has had some bad press lately (some foundation to it too it seems) but it’s worth noting he really has changed many lives for the better. His breathing technique calms me down every morning.
@@ErumyrPeople blaming his methods for family members dying. Which is absurd. He's telling normal, healthy people to do this. A 60 year old man with stents, after 2 heart attacks, should not go in an ice bath (just a made up example). I have brittle bones and metalwork in 5 parts of my body, I probably shouldn't either. You also shouldn't be in there for more than 5 minutes or so. Common sense is not common.
@@Christoff8188 its manufactured bad press. crazy & stupid people only. No real arguments were put forward. The same people are against the use of science, cars and medicine because all these 3 things could and did kill people in the past,.. CRAZY arguments
How can anyone not love Wim! His empowering method and love for humanity really helped me become stronger.. “If you don’t go to the cold, the cold will come to you, if you don’t go to the stress, the stress will come to you”. SIMPLE BUT PROFOUND!
Since I started watching Wim, I have a cold shower every day!! The cold really gets the blood pumping and makes me feel so alert and energised!! My routine: 2 mins warm shower, 20 seconds hot and then finish off with the coldest setting for at least one minute. Try it and you will feel amazing!!
Wow! The breathing technique was absolutely incredible. Never done it before and I was very sceptical, but my God did I feel so peaceful. Thank you Wim and thank you Steven for a great interview.
He turned tragedy into triumph for the whole world. He should get the noble peace prize. What a blessing to society. 🌻👣 its so easy you can do it at home by yourself. ❤
I love 'uncle Wim'. He is the absolute kindest and most well meaning person and he shares all this with anyone who wants to listen. Everyone needs to try it for at least a week.
I started cold showers in the winter when my Father was put into hospice. I didnt want anything repressed. He meant more to me that i couldve ever imagined. i thought it was only right that i never short changed my emotions for him. The cold and active breathing taught me to consciously confront all the feelings inside and out. I leaned into the cold and bathed in all emotions. I embraced it all while actively letting all the thoughts and feelings flow through me. Although i know ill always miss him, it really helped me through each of those days all the way through to months afterwards.
I Am very happy for You. listened to the podcast this morning and started the breathing best I could as I showered with cool water. I will work my way up to cold showers as I get better with the breathing. I wish you Peace.
I would be so grateful if you share your experience in more detail- what autoimmune diseases did you have (mine is ulcerative colitis), what exactly did you do, how often and for how long?
I think Wim Hof is spot on about trauma. It starts in the womb. I was adopted a few weeks after birth and I have always been a seeker. So I totally identify where he is coming from.
@@pirateslife4me Take a few deep breaths and ask the universe to help you find your source of strength. I am embarking on a wellness journey. Get your body moving and let's go! You can do and be better whenever you decide to. Decide to work on being your best self, for yourself.
Dude went to a public park everyday and let a fountain shoot water in his ass. One day they replaced the fountain. He did it again and ripped his intestins. Thats where the scars are from. Dudes a psycho
Wim Hoff changed my life, I had severe stress and couldn‘t fell my body because of fear, now I can feel again! I feel like my mind is clearer than ever before. And I have control over my cravings !
I have been doing the Wim Hof method for almost 11 years now, living in Michigan and embracing the snow in my summer clothing and taking nice dips in lake Michigan.
I was introduced to Wim Hof method at a course I was doing at St. Gallens; now listening to Wim I am moved and have new respect for him; thanks for this episode
This is probably one of the best DOAC podcast, but it looks like it may fly over a lot of people's heads ... Thank you Steven for having such an Open mind that allow ours to open up as well ...
These are the exact methods I used to give birth with out medical assistance 3 times. Using your voice actually refocuses pain. Deep breathing and counting through contractions knowing they will end after I reach 100 so every digit brings you closer to the end of the pain... mind over matter and knowing you are a part of nature and participating in the natural process via your amazing human body! Its so simple but you have to stay present with yourself.
The human body is so amazing. We probably haven’t even come close to tapping into our full potential. Our body’s ability to adapt to our environment over time and the things we can train it to do are just mind blowing.
This episode was the best in history, Stephen you connected so deeply with Wim. The conversation flowed so effortlessly between you both. Well done. This is pure education 👏.
Wim hof and his method changed my life 4 years ago, i must admit though ive fallen off the train the past year as im working 7 days a week to keep up with expenses. That being said i will be consistent everyday again.
I've came across Wim's technique 3 years ago and since then I feel really different, loving my morning cold showers and breathing rounds before bed. Happy, Strong and Healthier
I am a retired commercial diver who have used this breathing technic since my Mother taught me to calm myself down by taking 4 deep breaths which I taught my children. I do not take any pills at 60 years old I was taught this and enforced it on myself for decades thrugh swimming and diving and holding my breath which felt good and made me stronger and healthier.
Wim Hof changed my life. I use his techniques every single day. The gratitude I feel for this man brings tears to my eyes. Stay Happy, Stay Healthy, Stay Strong.
And to add to my comment above. Thankyou so much for this podcast, giving a greater and deeper understanding of Wim and his method. I really enjoyed this episode, the insights and the realisation of the possibilities for me as a human.
Best of the podcast from someone who just spoke totally out of experience..no study no phd no education Just pure experience Grateful listening to him..I am gng right into cold grass of winter barefoot😅
I had twins at 45.. I had such a traumatic time I had to fight walking in front of a train 🚊 over and over and over .. and when I saw wim for the first time.. I was starting the process and getting into it.. I was 60… it still took years and then I went into kings canyon Northern Territory Australia which was a big opener like a can..!! I felt more freer.. when covid hit.. I broke the lockdown and went to the freezing water in winter 🥶 all through the lockdown.. and I always thought 💭 of Wim’s breathing..!! Then I walked away from the whole system.. no more doctors..no more drugs. No more smoking .. no more just no more..!!🙏🙏🙏thank you Wim .. mother of 6.. missed carried 6…and have 9 grandchildren and I am still here.. when I wanted out of here from my baby/child/adult trauma.. my mother was taken from me as a child..committed to an asylum.. because of my baby sister in 1957 dying.. she was accused of killing her.. and everyone fell apart.. Finally I am back ..!!!🙌🥶🙏💝💭👌
Thank you for your remarkable story written with great honesty. Your words are strength and could help many who are stuck without support or knowledge to come through their own dilemmas.
@@AshraNashal52 You may be right; but if there is any chance at all that you are not, how could you be so full of yourself as to not care how what you said might affect her?
@@katherineleflufy7693 You never know what can happen. I wanted children so bad for so long that I think I put my ovaries into overdrive. I ended up with 5 children and my last pregnancy was identical triplet boys (natural). You wonder sometimes if someone is playing games with you.
l am so shuffed, l did the exercise in hte video and l managed to stay on exhale longer than l have ever done before, (by doing it sitting down and doing only that, not doing anything, not thinking about anything l had to do) 2 minutes 23 seconds!! l have always struggled with the holding onto exhale but l am so happy it worked. l paused the video and replayed it 3 times from the meditation exercise, so l feel mentally alert now and very happy! Thank you
One of the best episodes, I've always liked medical episodes being a pharmacist myself however this is the most direct, simple, humane, comforting and motivating episode, Im crying and want to follow every word he says
Wim's life journey left me breathless. The irony of art imitating life. Never cried on a podcast as i did here today. Thank you both for sharing your gifts with us. ❤
His mind and heart were flooded with extraordinary light; all torment, all doubt, all anxieties were relieved at once, resolved in a kind of lofty calm, full of serene, harmonious joy and hope, full of understanding and the knowledge of the ultimate cause of things.
I have never heard of Wim. I have dealt with chronic pain for 25 years, which resulted in sleep deprivation, weight gain from not moving dye to pain. My husband has lung and muscle weakness issues that are so scary. I am full of hope with Wim's methods, even in our golden years. I would love to look deeper into this. Thank you, Steven for sharing this. I recently learned about you from a presentation you did with Dean Graziosi. I am grateful for that too. 🌷

Just start ;)
@@majaaudran2532 I did. I bought also his app and I love it so far
There is a risk of drowning if you do this in water. Hope you are able to start breathing again!
Katherine Hepburn took cold showers and really believed in this practice. Interesting. I’ve never tried this. Bravery is correct!
Yes be very careful with breathing exercises in deep water. Have a friend with you if youre set on doing it.
I was quite sick. I was on 19 tablets a day and I tried his methods read his book and I’m off all my medication now living a healthy life.
I would love to know which methods in particular helped you get off your meds. Thanks in advance. ❤
Read his book tells u
And as usual Wikipedia labels Wim a murderer. Go figure.
Thank you for your comment. I have MS, take many tablets too and struggle paycheck to paycheck, with the lowest possible energy, but I will read the book and I will try ice baths.

thats awesome, im glad you are well ❤
Then it probably wasn’t depression.
@@Feignlander with respect, yes it was clinical depression, trauma from childhood and lifelong anxiety. Wims way of life gave me something, I can't explain it in words, but this, mixed with a few other things I was doing, made me want to change and stop waiting for change to happen for me. Me, powerful? I would have never said so, but heating Wim talk about how we all have a power within we've forgotten about, it helped. It wasn't easy at all and it's still an ongoing effort, but I can say I'm happy for the first time in my life and that's because I found my power and I put in the work I needed to, to change my life.
@@23STEVO23 thankyou
You look a transgender, that must be the trauma...
I am a doctor ...Wim is my doctor ...what a wonderful man God created here , thanks WIM ❤🙏
WoW ❤🎉

Great doc I too love the guy! Awesome. My son is going to be a doctor. Pediatric Osteopath. Any suggestions? Besides working for code enforcement instead lol? They've got a cush job with great retirement. Tee hee
Your purpose is to be healthy, strong and happy. God bless this incredible man who spreads love.
❤😊🎉🥰😘😘😘
I've been ocean swimming year-round because of Wim Hof now for 9 years and it has changed my life! The breathing exercises helped me through anxiety felt after losing my father a few years ago. Thank you Wim, with so much love. And thank you for this, Steven.
The reason this podcast is so successful is that Steve listens so well and goes with the flow, even if it means submerging himself in cold water on camera.
I just can’t not love him like a nephew. 💕
"Im not really bound. Time is serving me, I am not serving time." Beautiful.
Who came up with that what you said profound I'm going to adapt that into my own life thank you 🙏
Hell yes
😂 time do not exist. It is an illusion. PLB
Wim Hof is literally a blessing. I learnt about him in Dec 2023 and since then I've been religiously doing breath work. Started with 3x a day bt however my plan was to do it at least once a day. It's amazing how much relief you get within a few mins nd the anxiety which haunted you disappears instantly. I'll forever be grateful to the person who suggested him
It's also in Indian yoga but never taught us
My Dad was cycling around the Alps in his 80s. He never conformed and pursued many different jobs, but his constant was his strength of character and self-belief. We lost him a few years back and I miss him. He would have loved this episode. I think it would have helped him see that his way was okay-better than okay. Thanks, Hof.
Your dad sounds amazing ❤
Dads like that can nothing be but loved
Your dad hears your opinion and wants you to know he understands many more things now he is out of his physical body, and that he is happy. Also, he can soar over the tops of the Alps and get around a lot faster now since Spirits are light energy they move at the speed of light and with practice can manipulate energy to show physical signs they are still able to see and hear loved ones. I feel better about myself as I don't conform and go from one subject to another in study and various hobbies and ideas, and I have strong trust in my inner feelings and my character, and have total self belief in that I know I can learn or achieve what ever I put my mind to. Growing up I thought I was un able to learn due to the adults and school kids in my life telling me I was dumb or unco ordinated. I am so happy learning and growing and helping people in any capacity I can. Your description of your dad rang so true to my mind of myself I believe it drew your dad to me so I could pass on that message to you. God Bless you and your family 😇🥰🙏
Oh and he just said he has checked out this episode because you wished it to be so 😃
How did your dad die? ❤😢
My grandpa taught us that being active and taking a cold shower will keep you young and healthy. He lived to 100 and was a hiker, and mentally with it till the end.
Anecdotal, but still, guy must've been doing something right. good for him!
Incredible ❤ much love from Cleveland Ohio ❤ have you ever read We Want To Live By Aajonus Vonderplanitz
Winter is a season that often brings a deep sense of gratitude for its unique beauty and profound quietude. The cold, crisp air carries a refreshing clarity, and the blanket of snow that often covers the landscape transforms everything into a serene, white wonderland. This season encourages us to slow down, offering a time for reflection and introspection as the world outside rests. The warmth of a cozy home becomes more appreciated, and the joys of simple pleasures, like sipping hot cocoa by a crackling fire or watching snowflakes drift gently from the sky, feel even more special. Winter's chill fosters a closeness among loved ones, as we gather together for warmth and comfort. It’s a time that reminds us of the importance of rest and renewal, providing a natural pause that allows us to be thankful for the quiet moments and the gentle beauty of a world at peace.
@@StrangeRealityVlogmust look that one up .
@kaufmanat1 anecdotal is the doubt you give yourself.
“Did I fell in love or rose in love, I think the last one” 🙌🏻❤
I do the 14 minute Wim Hof breathing exercises every other day then immediately hang in my inversion chair for 10 minutes - I can swim two laps underwater in a large pool and I'm 62 years old! It's a life changer, for sure!
Beware shallow water blackout
The fact that you can HEAR him breathing, deeply and consistently, is a lesson in itself. I also thought, at the beginning of this episode, that he has A LOT of energy, especially for his age. It seems like he has more energy than I have had after exercise, food or a good night's rest...and I'm barely 30.
Worth listening to. Again, thanks for the value!
My sister recommended Wim Hoff to me a few years ago. She said the breathing, cold showers and occasional ice baths were helping her with all the negative impacts from her 10 year battle with aggressive breast cancer, and the trauma she had stored inside from when she was partially run over by a truck 13 years ago. The Wim Hof method helped to lift her out of the depths of despair and find a reason to keep on living through all that pain and hardship. She passed away on August 16th this year, but her example to enjoy life to the full regardless of what it throws at you lives on. I have decided to do the breath work each day as well as a cold shower, and the impact I already feel is tremendous. Thank you Wim Hof for helping to give my sister and I peace, and thank you Steven for another excellent interview.
Wim is absolutely one of today’s true human super heroes! I’ve been doing morning cold showers since coming across his videos years ago and wanted to see if I could do for 2 weeks and that turned into the better part of 3 years
He did not "invent" these various types of breathing. If it helps someone feel good great. Don't forget he also advocates hyperventilating in water which has had lethal consequences. He's just a man and a flawed one at that. He shouldn't be viewed as a saint. He didn't go into the fact he walked away from all his young children to go live a selfish rouge existence when they had no mother.
Wondering what the benefits were for you?
WIM!! I've never clicked so fast. Wim Hof breathing really changed my life❤
❤🙌
😂 I clicked fast too.
Ha! Me too! We out here!!! 🌎
I love him!!...this is the only way forward!!!
Same! 😂😂 💥
America has no content creators on this level not even 19keys, it’s the conversational etiquette that makes this channel so captivating!
I think it’s his voice.
Thats true
I like Andrew Huberman. He's amazing.
Just woke up, sat down with my coffee, turned on the tv, and was excited to see you have Wim Hof on today. He’s amazing! Thank you. 🙏
Up until 4 years ago I suffered from crippling anxiety every single day for 3 years. I came across wims video on UA-cam and was desperate to stop these attacks I would of tried anything (which I did but nothing worked) I opened up to this. A video that said never get sick again. That day after the breathing exercises and cold water therapy I went from attacks every day to 1 or 2 a year and I can deal with them because of wims method. If you suffer, try it. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.
That's fantastic. Kudos to you for not giving in and thanks for the inspiration.
Over 10 years ago I also had a long period of suffering from severe anxiety. Back then I didn't know about cold water therapy, but I did learn about breathing exercises and that alone helped me so much overcoming it. Since I recovered I've only had a very few panic attacks and every time I could control them through breathing.
That's very interesting... I have crippling social anxiety and all the fun stuff that comes with that.
Thanks for sharing ❤
@ExiLeZH what about all the others who are almost red lining
I have all the time in the world for wim, we dont know each other but he saved me from the pain of a deep depression. Ice baths / cold showers and breathing all released emotions and allowed me to heal. It sounds so airy fairy but its all very real and just works. A great man i will always have time for. Good interview.
I get the idea that Steven is a really flexible, adaptive and open minded host.
Topics are inspirational, but seeing Steven work is just as inspirational 👌🏼
Wim is inspiring. Steven just has ego-assured success.
@burtlangoustine1 your entitled to your opinion but in mine thats a crappy thing to say !
Yeah the whole DOAC team are amazing to be fair. Great researching, presentation, quality and selections.
This man educates us! Why isnt this taught in schools? We live in a 3D society that wants us to hate ourselves and each other. Thank you for this incredible insight today to remind us that we have everything we need already inside of us! The world does not want us to know who we are. Thank the Lord for this man. He has proven and shown that the worse thing that can happen in your life does not have the ability to break you. We all have a choice in life no matter the circumstances. WE ALL HAVE A CHOICE!
It has been said that’s soon all there is to be known will be known and it still won’t make a difference..

No I’m sorry to say I agree with him because the true seekers in the world are few in number. For instance how many
Made it through to the 1 hour 10 minute mark after the deep breathing exercises????
I’m 70 and I made it this far and will finished to the end and THEN I will share the beeJesus out of this video and watch a dozen more times myself. We are NEVER TOO OLD TO LEARN!!!
"They suddenly feel power!!! Sorry that I'm yelling." I love his genuine enthusiasm.
Wim, our lovely Dutch hero!
For me a cold shower almost every morning (2 min)=
*No more joint pain,
*Happier mood,
*No more palpitations
*More present
*No more panic/anxiety
*No more flues in winter
*Much calmer mind
❤
And so much energy, after that i feel so alive.
Amazing, I need this so much, but my mind rejects the idea of cold and discomfort- I am so weak 😩
Also, is Wim in Dutch pronounced with a « V »?
@@smarteam5920yes indeed and "V" is pronounced as "F" , for example go to Google translate and translate "five" to dutch
how cold ? just a bit cold or maximum cold ?
@@overmind13max
I did Wim’s cold showers for a whole summer. Taking it bit by bit I went from hating cold water in the shower to singing soul songs to myself underneath the freezing water. I stopped counting the seconds and minutes and just got out when I was bored showering. I could never do them in the cold season though.
Btw, lady here, so ladies, don’t be afraid!
Wow!! That's awesome. Thanks for sharing!
But what were the benefits of cold showers?
@@LogicPak Dopamine, so overall a somewhat intense feel good. Same feeling I'd get from sports or sweets. Plus smooth skin.
You could do them in the cold season though. The great thing about seasons is they gradually change. Little by little getting colder or warmer. It's a great way to ease into it
Ho
Proud Dutch man here. He is a hero. And now, he is again under fire in the media. This needs to stop!
Fuck the media! They are there for the sheep. We that have our eyes open see trough the hypocrisy. You see what they did to the world during CowID? If media sais something, if government seems to care do exactly the opposite!
Loved Wim Hoff and followed him for years and i am very thankful for his experience he shares with the world.
Breathe in peaceful thoughts and take care of yourself. The rest, the negativity let it just run off like water on a duck
Under fire for what ?
@@tanishanightingale a lot of problems. Gossip about Financial issues with family members, a lot of his breathing techniques are not his, but, for instance come from old yoga and ayurveda practices. And that is ok. But then he should mention his sources. There are also psychologists that think he has mental issues as well. You can also see it in the way he talkes, his passion could partly be driven by bipolar symptoms. I had the honor to ask him questions in a podcast, but he would disregard critical questions and there was not much reflection about these questions. To be honest, i think his way of living is still a copingmechanism. Luckily it did help a lot of people, but the question lies all arround his motives. You can see him regulating in this conversation as well.
This all is not helping his cause, sadly enough.
To be honest, when this interview started off, I wanted to click off because Hof seemed a bit too "crazy" for lack of a better word; I was skeptical. But the more I listened, the less skeptical I got - I checked out the studies, they're accurate and reliable... It all seems so far fetched but it's actually true. This is mind blowing.
He is world famous and well known in the psychology community! I read about him years ago in a book called "Breath" by James Nestor, amazing!
To be diferent is to seem crazy. Whim Hoff is not the holder of "Truth" but he is a possibility of a path.
Just because his English isn’t fluent doesn’t mean he doesn’t know what his talking about
@@DrChristy I'm a dr as well doin my master's in psychiatry at Harvard the lessons i learned from podcasts like Jay ,Steven ,Mel and indeed Dr Peterson way better than Harvard thank you guys i i appreciate it
I love that you were able to stay open minded and persevere with it. My husband would switch off immediately and sadly miss the benefits
"probably to late" I feel that. I don't know how to live with it some days. I was trying my best but feel like I made all the wrong decisions. When I found out Wim was affected by the same tragedy as me, it gave me some hope that there is a way forward. It's been over a year though and that grief still shakes my soul. I can't stop missing her. Love yall.
so so sorry. yes, love you too!
Sending strength ❤ things will get better for you
There are certain types of pain that are not ever fully gone from your psyche and soul. You learn ways to cope with and overcome the trauma, even turn some of it around and help others heal from their trauma or pain. In other words the parts of your experience that you learn to heal and live with in a healthy and productive way becomes part of who you are. Don’t try to get rid of the trauma or pain. Learn how you can heal from it and help others to find some inner peace. We are all different people and we all need unique paths to heal. You have to try things until you find what works for you
stop trying and start being again. less thought more presence, focus on your breath and realign your attention with here and now.
Anything the Government say to eat i just do the opposite. I recommend reading “Health and Beauty Mastery” that book is a real eye opener about shocking stuff health industry is doing! I completely changed my habits

A very fascinating video, this brings back painful memories which i have been enduring. My relationship of 5 years ended 3 months ago. The love of my life decided to leave me, I really love her so much I can’t stop thinking about her, I’ve tried my very best to get her back in my life, but to no avail, I’m frustrated, I don’t see my life with anyone else. I’ve done my best to get rid of the thoughts of her, but I can’t, I don’t know why I’m saying this here, I really miss her and just can’t stop thinking about her.
Parting ways with someone you deeply cherish is an agonizing experience . I understand firsthand, having encountered a parallel situation at the end of my 6-year relationship. Driven by an unyielding determination, I explored every avenue to salvage our bond. Seeking guidance from a spiritual counselor proved pivotal , as their intervention played a crucial role in rekindling our love .
That's fascinating! How did you come across a spiritual counselor, and what's the best way for me to contact her?
Meet Suzanne Ann Walters, an outstanding spiritual counselor with the power to restore your relationship with your ex.
I appreciate this invaluable information; I've just searched for her online. Quite impressive!

I’ve been doing Wim Hoff for two years now. Changed my life. I would cry if I even thought I’d be somewhere cold. Now I don’t fear it, I am, at least in that respect, a totally changed person. Wim has had some bad press lately (some foundation to it too it seems) but it’s worth noting he really has changed many lives for the better. His breathing technique calms me down every morning.
What was the bad press about?
@@ErumyrPeople blaming his methods for family members dying.
Which is absurd. He's telling normal, healthy people to do this.
A 60 year old man with stents, after 2 heart attacks, should not go in an ice bath (just a made up example). I have brittle bones and metalwork in 5 parts of my body, I probably shouldn't either. You also shouldn't be in there for more than 5 minutes or so.
Common sense is not common.
@@Erumyrno bad press. Only idiots who commit suicide and family members blaim the world
@@Christoff8188 its manufactured bad press. crazy & stupid people only. No real arguments were put forward. The same people are against the use of science, cars and medicine because all these 3 things could and did kill people in the past,.. CRAZY arguments
Was that man part of the world experiment?
It's remarkable how Steven is vulnerable in this interviews.
How can anyone not love Wim! His empowering method and love for humanity really helped me become stronger..
“If you don’t go to the cold, the cold will come to you, if you don’t go to the stress, the stress will come to you”. SIMPLE BUT PROFOUND!
Since I started watching Wim, I have a cold shower every day!! The cold really gets the blood pumping and makes me feel so alert and energised!!
My routine: 2 mins warm shower, 20 seconds hot and then finish off with the coldest setting for at least one minute.
Try it and you will feel amazing!!
Yes, I do this same thing everyday. If I exit the warm shower without doing a cold finish, then I don’t feel clean, so I do the cold at the end.
@neilatkinson3974 Yep, it works better than just going in full cold from the outset which is just not enjoyable and too much of a body shock.
If i start with warm water i feel a lot less energy during the day..
Wow 😮... I want to try this.
I agree with both hot and cold, although for me I like to go cold a bit longer and then end hot again. Each their own style :)
"Gaza is happening and we shrug it off" -- bless this man. Keep breathing, keep loving, free Palestine and its beautiful people.
Wow! The breathing technique was absolutely incredible. Never done it before and I was very sceptical, but my God did I feel so peaceful. Thank you Wim and thank you Steven for a great interview.
He's so passionate and he has a point !! A modern time free thinker and warrior! ❤
He turned tragedy into triumph for the whole world. He should get the noble peace prize. What a blessing to society. 🌻👣 its so easy you can do it at home by yourself. ❤
For real. Exceptional, exceptional human being.
I love 'uncle Wim'. He is the absolute kindest and most well meaning person and he shares all this with anyone who wants to listen. Everyone needs to try it for at least a week.
All I can say ...this was brilliant. The best 1 hour and 46.4 minutes ever...plus I did not skip ahead...first time ever.
I started cold showers in the winter when my Father was put into hospice.
I didnt want anything repressed. He meant more to me that i couldve ever imagined. i thought it was only right that i never short changed my emotions for him.
The cold and active breathing taught me to consciously confront all the feelings inside and out. I leaned into the cold and bathed in all emotions. I embraced it all while actively letting all the thoughts and feelings flow through me.
Although i know ill always miss him, it really helped me through each of those days all the way through to months afterwards.
Your cold plunging always in honor of you and your lineage in gratitude 😊
I Am very happy for You. listened to the podcast this morning and started the breathing best I could as I showered with cool water. I will work my way up to cold showers as I get better with the breathing. I wish you Peace.
He is baaaack 😍 This technique helped me heal my autoimmune diseases 🙌 Full remission, no meds !
Was it the breathing technique, the cold water, or both? Congrats on getting your health back!
@@ladylo-fi6979 I don't they should be considered seperate to be honest.
Could you explain more about that? Did you change your life around the techniques like diet and exercise and stuff as well? Or purely the techniques?

I don’t think I’ve ever seen Steven look so humbled and in awe…..but then so am I by Wim and his light he shines for all ❤
Everything that I have considered that would completely embody what a spirit is, WIm Hof is that.
the cold changed my life, cured depression and anxiety, gave me energy to start regularly exercise, never i am 40 but now i am like 20.
How?
Wim Hoff changed my life, I had severe stress and couldn‘t fell my body because of fear, now I can feel again! I feel like my mind is clearer than ever before. And I have control over my cravings !
I have been doing the Wim Hof method for almost 11 years now, living in Michigan and embracing the snow in my summer clothing and taking nice dips in lake Michigan.
breathing too?
Wim has changed many people's world through a simple and profound ethos we can all tap into.
Hurt people hurt people. Or they do the inner work and delight others. 🧊📈🥶🤩
Thanks!
Cold is a blessing and honetly most people are trapped in their fear of the discomfort the cold brings !
So people who were born in hot climates don't count?
Honestly, cold water is like pain to me...but I am going to give it a try for the benefits he talks about.
I was introduced to Wim Hof method at a course I was doing at St. Gallens; now listening to Wim I am moved and have new respect for him; thanks for this episode
It's crazy how nobody talks about how they are trying to censor books like Health and Beauty Mastery for exposing the industry.
I heard about that
wat book ??
bot?
Could you please provide the name of the author for that book so can make sure it’s the correct one that you’re referring to.
sounds like BS
This is probably one of the best DOAC podcast, but it looks like it may fly over a lot of people's heads ... Thank you Steven for having such an Open mind that allow ours to open up as well ...
Was thinking about that just now as I was trying to explain to a family member.
I couldn’t have said it better
These are the exact methods I used to give birth with out medical assistance 3 times. Using your voice actually refocuses pain. Deep breathing and counting through contractions knowing they will end after I reach 100 so every digit brings you closer to the end of the pain... mind over matter and knowing you are a part of nature and participating in the natural process via your amazing human body! Its so simple but you have to stay present with yourself.
me too !! 5 times
Yes! Embrace the pain. Own the pain. Don’t fight it.
Being good to each other Not competitive. That’s the purpose of life.
Golden words from Wim hoff ❤
Oh, Wim ! Always puts a smile on my face. Cold baths and breathing exercises helped me to get off steroids for my chronic bronchitis. Thank you Wim!
Thank you sharing. I suffer from chronic ashtma and on daily steroids. Will try it. Thank you
@@debsbenjamin4629do you think it will work for arthritis
Wim's breathing exercise is the best method that's helped me and saved me from chronic panic attacks, can't recommend enough!
The human body is so amazing. We probably haven’t even come close to tapping into our full potential. Our body’s ability to adapt to our environment over time and the things we can train it to do are just mind blowing.
This episode was the best in history, Stephen you connected so deeply with Wim. The conversation flowed so effortlessly between you both.
Well done. This is pure education 👏.
To me this man is "Ome Wim!" (Uncle Wim)
I've never met him. I'm gratefull that you have had him on your show.
Greetings from Curaçao.
Wim hof and his method changed my life 4 years ago, i must admit though ive fallen off the train the past year as im working 7 days a week to keep up with expenses. That being said i will be consistent everyday again.
The best interview I've seen with Wim being really open and even a bit vulnerable in all his strength.
No matter what you are going through in life, your mindset has the ability to recover you from anything.
Needed this . Thank you ❤
I've came across Wim's technique 3 years ago and since then I feel really different, loving my morning cold showers and breathing rounds before bed. Happy, Strong and Healthier
He’s soo much deeper than I thought previously.
because he's sharing truth, instead of ideology.
Watched this and practised along yesterday, did a few more rounds before bed and early morning today. I'm so so much better. Thank you so so much ❤❤❤
I am a retired commercial diver who have used this breathing technic since my Mother taught me to calm myself down by taking 4 deep breaths which I taught my children. I do not take any pills at 60 years old I was taught this and enforced it on myself for decades thrugh swimming and diving and holding my breath which felt good and made me stronger and healthier.
Wim Hof is an absolute legend. If anyone wants to experience a calm mind and state of inner peace fast, his breathing techniques have been the best.
Wim Hof changed my life. I use his techniques every single day. The gratitude I feel for this man brings tears to my eyes.
Stay Happy, Stay Healthy, Stay Strong.
Me too. I didn't have an unhappy life. I've been doing Wim's techniques for the past year. It's great and Wims great.
Wim is so incredibly intense. His message and method is very interesting.
And to add to my comment above. Thankyou so much for this podcast, giving a greater and deeper understanding of Wim and his method. I really enjoyed this episode, the insights and the realisation of the possibilities for me as a human.
The intensity comes from mastery of trauma over many years. Youth would be wise to learn from thier elders.
You and chris williamson are among some of the few people who i trust to really deliver on these podcasts
Best of the podcast from someone who just spoke totally out of experience..no study no phd no education
Just pure experience

I felt more freer.. when covid hit.. I broke the lockdown and went to the freezing water in winter 🥶 all through the lockdown.. and I always thought 💭 of Wim’s breathing..!! Then I walked away from the whole system.. no more doctors..no more drugs. No more smoking .. no more just no more..!!🙏🙏🙏thank you Wim .. mother of 6.. missed carried 6…and have 9 grandchildren and I am still here.. when I wanted out of here from my baby/child/adult trauma.. my mother was taken from me as a child..committed to an asylum.. because of my baby sister in 1957 dying.. she was accused of killing her.. and everyone fell apart..

l am so shuffed, l did the exercise in hte video and l managed to stay on exhale longer than l have ever done before, (by doing it sitting down and doing only that, not doing anything, not thinking about anything l had to do) 2 minutes 23 seconds!!
l have always struggled with the holding onto exhale but l am so happy it worked. l paused the video and replayed it 3 times from the meditation exercise, so l feel mentally alert now and very happy! Thank you
One of the best episodes, I've always liked medical episodes being a pharmacist myself however this is the most direct, simple, humane, comforting and motivating episode, Im crying and want to follow every word he says
Thank you Wim for sharing the knowledge with enthusiasm, acknowledging people in pain and children dying
Wim's life journey left me breathless. The irony of art imitating life. Never cried on a podcast as i did here today. Thank you both for sharing your gifts with us. ❤
Oh my God I am ecstatic that you have Wim Hof on. So much more than I thought it would be. Thank you so much for this!!
His mind and heart were flooded with extraordinary light; all torment, all doubt, all anxieties were relieved at once, resolved in a kind of lofty calm, full of serene, harmonious joy and hope, full of understanding and the knowledge of the ultimate cause of things.
Both of you are doing it. By choosing to use your platform to bring in a lit genius such as Wim…you are truly living your soul mission. Thank you.
I have never heard of Wim. I have dealt with chronic pain for 25 years, which resulted in sleep deprivation, weight gain from not moving dye to pain. My husband has lung and muscle weakness issues that are so scary. I am full of hope with Wim's methods, even in our golden years. I would love to look deeper into this. Thank you, Steven for sharing this. I recently learned about you from a presentation you did with Dean Graziosi. I am grateful for that too. 🌷
