I ATTENDED A WIM HOF METHOD WORKSHOP · Unexpected Results: Haven't Been Able to Do This in 1,5 Years

- Опубліковано 24 лют 2020
- ♥ In today's video, I share my newly found love for cold therapy, cold showers, cold swimming and what it was like to attend a Wim Hof Method workshop in Stockholm! I have been getting so many questions about the cold showers I have been taking so it was a no-brainer to make a video about this whole topic and experience. I had so much fun at this workshop. It was challenging and crazy at times, but it left me wanting more. And the results I got immediately afterward were mindblowing. I couldn't believe that my body could change so much literally overnight. I can't wait to see what the future has to offer if I keep this up!

now I just want a baby yoda in my shirt pocket. *goes to google* ----
edit: as someone who ADORES scalding hot showers and absolutely cannot stand even the slightest lukewarmness to any body of water (heat it up, please!), the thought of anything cold-water related sounds like the most miserable thing on the planet lol. But I'm glad I got to hear your experience with it.
Your mom is amazing, I want to be like her when I grow up. I am a huge water baby, obsessed with swimming etc, but I get seizures from being cold and taking a hot shower calms my seizures. I think that water is so therapeutic, it can totally transform the state of a person physically and neurologically. Most of our planet is covered in water for a good reason.
I want your mom to be my mentor! She seems like the coolest lady!
Haha I’ll let her know 😄
I adore her!
At my work, a Wim Hof workshop was actually part of the training program one day! An ice bath was set up in the middle of the office space and we all did breathing exercises and went in. I didn't have prior experience and it did hurt to go in, but it was really amazing to have done this
This video was so well put together! I tend to put the shower on cold for a few seconds before I get out - feel so much better when I do! ❄️
Kate Q I do the same, and over time I look forward to the cold at the end.
The Baby Yoda shirt rules!
One thing that I have learn from ballet is that your body gets "used to pain", in a streaching kind of way, so it could be a real physical change that you experienced, in a way that with this cold baths you are more used to pain, feel it less and you can streach your muscles and ligaments more. It is a thing that happens! I am very happy that you are seeing good changes come and I hope it helps you feel better!
So cool that you did that! Can’t wait to hear more about your experiences in the future as you continue this method
I’m very excited to see what happens! 😃
Wow! This was so interesting and informative! I'm so happy for you!
This was so interesting, thank you!
I’m so glad that you tried this. I have been doing it’s little at a time myself. But you my lady look anew and that’s all the proof for me as I see how wonderful you look at this time.
I just remembered the videos you made last year around the same time and the difference is unbelievable. You look so happy, healthy, and motivated to take your life into your own hands. This is so inspiring and I'm so glad you feel better. And you also convinced me to try cold showers ... 🤭 love from France ❤️
This was such an informative and interesting video! Thanks so much Katrin! 💜
I saw a documentary about Wim Hof, the Ice man, years ago and was really amazed. Later he was on the Joe Rogan podcast and explained more in detail what his method was all about. I've been meaning to try it but like you I hate the cold and never took the plunge so to speak. This video makes me really want to try it right now, thanks for reminding me!
Good luck! 😃
@@Katrinberndt Thanks! Btw that Mick Mars tattoo is awesome, coolest guy on the planet. 🤘🤘
13:20 I was expecting a sacrifice of some sort but oh well... disappointment. heh
🤣
Amazing! I love following your moms swims on insta and am so happy that you had a great experience. I’m floored by your heels on the ground too! I end my regular shower with a cold shower as I feel so much better after. Hadn’t really thought about how I felt getting out of the cold verses the hot but I think you’re right! Great video Katrin! Can’t wait to hear if you notice other changes in your health. ❤️
Hey, I’m so glad you shared this experience. This is super interesting. I’m definitely going to look into this more xx
That’s so cool Katrin! I’ve been following Wim for a couple of years now and I also did the workshop in Barcelona! Certainly cold exposure and specially the breathing exercise helped tremendously with my anxiety!!! I’m so happy about your experience!
Thank you for sharing your experience with with us! I also have a lot of joint pain, so I think I'm going to check out this method! Oh, and I am so glad that your joints and body aren't as sore as before you you started this method! It's awesome that you got out of your comfort zone, and it paid off! Very brave of you.
I am going to start this method. Thank you for sharing your experience!
You‘ve inspired me to shower cold everyday, although I‘ve always been a very hot showering person. But it‘s all about mindset. Reading more about the background left me quite fascinated by the possible benefits. I‘m thrilled to see what will come of it
So glad you got to do this! I really believe in this method and I want to do this right after I graduate!!! I would also like to help in research in this area in the future! You're awesome! 🙌🙌🙌
That sounds awesome! 😃
I'm so happy for you!
I have been interested in this method for so long and am so excited that you tried it!
It's soooooo worth a try! Maybe you'll hate it, I don't know. But I'm so happy I realized how amazing cold showers and swims are.
Katrin Berndt - I have an autoimmune disorder too and the wim hof method caught my attention immediately - I’ll start with cold showers :) thank you for giving me the motivation to slowly ease into it !
I also tried cold shower groove a couple of weeks ago - thanks to your channel. :D
It's really a bit of a shock at first, but later...all those sensations. You spotaneusly start laughing and smiling!
Truly recommend it guys.
Very interesting 👌 Thank you for sharing 😇
I’m glad that this has worked so well for you!! I’ve never heard about it before and it’s very interesting :) I can’t handle being cold (I’m reaching for a sweater to wear over my shirt at this very moment! Lol) but maybe one day I will give it a shot !
I thought this video was very well done with the graphics, inserts and information as well as the additions of light humor and baby yoda. While I'm not running out to try this myself I do love your channel and have followed your journey through recent poor health. The fact that you "choose" to believe this is working for you makes me happy. Everyone should have the right to choose a path to happiness, health and strength that works best for them. I wish you continued success :)
thanks for making this video. I had never heard of this. I enjoy hearing about health topics. both hot and cold therapies are known for helping joint pain, it's just what you prefer. I'm glad it's helping you.
This is an awesome video! Have been on the fence about trying the WHM. I originally started following you because of ear stretching tips and such but this was a pleasant surprise to see on your channel. Stay awesome! 🤘🏽🤙🏽🇺🇸🇺🇸
First comment and view! I love this!
Awesome! :D
I find it so badass that you did this. I find this so interesting! 🥰
It was a challenge for sure! But it’s fun to do things you never thought you would. 🥶😄
It inspires me to step out of my comfort zone more often. It's good to do stuff you'd never think you could or would do. Thanks for the great video!
Fully took this video on board and have been feeling soo much better since having cold showers. I normally have really bad inflammation issues but iv been sweet since i changed temperatures. Its so refreshing and i actually feel more awake and energised. Thankyou for sharing :)
That’s great to hear! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
That was a really interessting video! Never heard about that method, but it really makes sense to me! Breathing methods are important to many meditation methods and yoga as well, for a good reason I think. And the cold? Well,I did very much sauna in the past. The most thing I enjoyed was the cold shower and the cold swim afterwards and then walking arround outside naked. I thought about that it was a really good feeling and I felt refreshed and relaxed. Your video inspired me to maybe do some sauna more often again, to work on my idleness to do more often my yoga exercise and maybe to start wirh cold showers. Thank you for that!
Wow, your mom's English is so good. Also, she's very beautiful ❤️❄️
I've just started practicing the Wim Hof breathing method like two weeks ago after being diagnosed with an autoimmune disease. Was pretty shitty at it at the beginning and couldn't even hold my breath for more than 30 seconds, but I'm getting better and better at it! What I noticed is it really calms my whole body down. It's time for me to include the cold showers now, which is something I'm absolutely not comfortable with, but seeing your video has motivated me a lot! I'm an absolute baby when it comes to the cold and I LOVE hot showers, so it's going to be an interesting journey :)
Awesome! Best of luck to you! 🙏🏻
To me the results you are getting makes sense. Cold reduces inflammation therefore your pain is reduced. I'm so happy for you
Right? Best of both worlds. 😄🥶❄️
Interesting. I`ll keep it in mind.
so interesting!
3 year practitioner. 62 years old Stay with it. It will change your life in different good directions. Nice video
I've read a study that said that if you end your shower with 30 seconds of cold shower gives you health benefits, longer cold shower doesn't give you anymore health benefits by that studie. I got nauseous after I took showers so I just started ending my shower with a 30 second cold shower and it really helps. I'm not nauseous anymore after a shower and have more energy. I'll definitely look more into the Wim Hof method.
When comparing research you need to be very careful what you’re referring to. ☺️ Perhaps some benefits end at 30 seconds, perhaps some benefits start at 2 minutes. Perhaps some benefits only appear when the temperature changes from hot to cold, and so on. 😃 But yeah I do recommend looking into the WHM more. It’s fascinating! And cold showers are the best!
@@Katrinberndt o yeah you should definitely do your own research and not only take my word cause I may not be a reliable source and may misinterpret the study. I know for me a 30 second cold shower at the end works really well but I'm ready to explore more
Lovely wee video really pleased it's working for you. It has helped me through depression and I have also kept me cold & flue free for 3 years.
So sad people give positive videos like this a thumbs down they should get in to a cold shower and see for themselves but I suppose they will sadly never try something new..
I know Lady Gaga does ice baths to ease the pain of her fibromyalgia, perhaps it works for a lot of people. Anyways if it makes you happy you shouldn't be worrying about other's opinion
in my case 2 years ago before our trip to Iceland Jonna Jinton's ice bath video insipred me to take a cold shower and conquer the cold by surrendering to it. i've been taking cold showers ever since from time to time, it's a wonderful sensation after the first few seconds, love it ^^
Wow, hearing about your improvement in movement/flexibility and pain makes me wanna try this! I have joint issues and am hyper mobile so this might be good for me as well. :)
Hello
can only agree that it was a really rewarding course and I will also follow along on the next course May 16 in Stockholm incredible that such an easy method can give so much positive in the body //Reine
Perfect! See you in May! 😃
I live in Australia. Honestly that ice on top of the lake was crazy! I haven't ever seen anything like that before (irl). I want to stand on a lake 😂. I think I may try the cold showers.
please keep making updates!!
🖤 Amazing shirt 🖤 very interesting video I have never heard of this 🧐
So cool! Happy for you :D now I want to try it too! Didnt even know he was Dutch, I'm Dutch 😄
Haha do it! 😃👏🏻
I’m definitely going to check this out! I have psoriatic arthritis and it affects everything I do every day. I’ve taken strides but I’m always open to “natural” things that could help. Do you know if they have run into auto-immune type arthritis?
Hmm not sure! Check the website for more info and testimonials! ☺️
I just had my first cold shower and honnestly, I loved it! I didn't think I was gonna like it since I hate cold and I don't like to get wet neither. Please go watch the Joe Rogan and Wim Hof interview! It's so interesting! Thank you Katrin for letting me know about this😄
Good talk. Weird that I didn't see this before I went into the icewake ;) last week.
Apparently we Dutchies do well at convincing others to take cold showers / baths, haha. So happy you are enjoying it ♥️ I'm still doing my cold showers in the morning 💪
Ben jij Linda van K-club waar ze t over heeft? 😊
Hahah yes, crazy dutchies! 😄❄️🥶
@@Katrinberndt crazy good you mean 😉
@@inpherior8758 ja, dat ben ik, haha
I use to finish bathing with a cold shower and it was so refreshing. Then I had to stop because I started to get really bad leg cramps from the cold water. Haven’t been able to find out why or what changed. My brother has UC. So sorry that you have to deal with that chronic condition. 😢
Hi Katrin, I have a weird and stupid sounding question. Can you train certain muscles (I have Reynaud's) by putting ice on them first? Or do you really need to cool down the whole body? Thanks in advance!
Hey! I have no idea haha, I think this is a question for your doctor. ♥️ Be safe!
In sweden this has already been practiced since ages ago, its called to bada isvak and is Done in the wintertime to get more energy etc. ☺️
As I said in the video, The Wim Hof Method is not just bathing in cold temperatures. It's the three pillars that come together and work together to improve your health. Cold exposure and meditation and breathing has been around for ages. :) No one argues with that!
Okay, you convinced me hehe, I just took a cold shower!
How was it?? 😃♥️❄️🥶
@@Katrinberndt It was hard haha! I usually take very hot showers and I spend too long in the shower afraid of the cold air 😅. But afterwards I feel similar to what you described. So I started showering with colder water just in the very end, once my body felt completely warm. That helped me feel better, but I was never able to take a cold shower straight from the start. I was really motivated after watching your video and finally did it, I'll try to keep up! 😍✨❄️
I've been practicing the Wim Hof Method now for just over 2 weeks and all of a sudden I'm able to run 3 miles (5k) without stopping, getting tired, and without training. Last time I ran about month ago I was exhausted after half a mile. Can't explain it but it's weird and awesome.
Ugh I hoooooope so much that I can start running again soon! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
I think pretty much every professional athlete uses cold baths, so there’s definitely benefits! I personally have heart problems, so I first go into a warm shower, then in the end go colder and colder and it does feel very good and refreshing!
The only thing I wish you did to make this video perfect, put the disclaimer of “check in with your doctor first” sooner and more obvious. I mean it’s your channel and your videos... I just think it should be said right away, before people get excited about such a thing. Coz it’s very serious matter if you have heart/blood pressure problems, many people don’t know they have. For someone who has heart/blood problems it can be life threatening.
So if you read this, pls, ask your doctor first if you can do that without any risks for your health.
True! 😊
I have very similiar story to yours, because my mom convinced me to taking cold shower (my mum is fan of cold swimming and baths, but I prefer showers). Last Winter I was sick basically all the time, and this year I don't even wear that warm jacket and I really really enjoy cold.
Awesome to hear! 😃❄️
I started taking some cold-ish showers after working out so I can feel energized afterwards, but I wouldn't turn the water all the way cold, because here in Croatia (maybe in other countries as well) we usually take cold showers to lower a fever, and since I have naturally a lower body temperature (35,8 - 36,7°C) I don't think that would be the best idea for me 😂 but would love to try this method sometime in the future, especially to experience the health benefits
I’d have a seizure going in cold water like that! (Seriously). I do meditate, good for you for getting out of your comfort zone!!! And your mother seems really cool!
never been this early to anything before in my life
Hahah yay!!
Hah is a bit bizarre hearing you say my name, even though you weren't talking about me, obviously haha😅
I'm legitimate very happy for you, that you found something that actually works for you and your joint pain. You do seem more positive, relaxed, and happy overall, so I'm really happy for you :D
I've been doing it every day for about 8 months now. This shit works.
Can you please give an update on how you are doing! Did you feel any improvement mentally?
Question! When you do the cold showers, how long do you stay in and do you let the water pour down on the head?
I’m wondering bc it would cool down the brain and my guess is you don’t do that or do it for a short time.
I stay in for 2-3 minutes but no cold water on my head. 😊
I'm curious; are these cold showers instead of a regular shower? or is it an extra thing you do? I personally hate showers, I find them exhausting, but what you said about hating warm showers, and it being easier to get out of a cold shower is intriguing.
Very interesting video, happy to hear you have found something that helps with your joint pain =)
All my showers end cold now, but they are not all 100% cold. If I need to wash my hair I do that in warm water. If I only need to wash my body I do it in cold water. Feels great. ☺️ Sometimes I might take an extra shower in a day even for the added effect. ♥️❄️
I first heard about Wim Hof because the UA-camrs "Yes Theory" did a documentation with him. I was absolutly amazed by his mindset. That was about a year ago...maybe it's time to see if the method works for me too 😜
I love the video Yes Theory did with Wim! It was the first video I saw of them. 😁
I love your shirt! Where is it from?
I’m not sure honestly! I got it as a gift. ☺️ But I’m sure you can just google baby yoda shirt!
THUMB UP - MOM - MAMA!
Hi, I tried and loved cold showers for some weeks as well. But for the last weeks I couldn't get myself to practice them, because I got ill. How do you deal with such times. Do you still take you cold showers?
No, if I’m ill I don’t stress my body by taking cold showers. 😊 then I let my body heal.
@@Katrinberndt OK, this calms me down a bit. I felt like I just chicken out of it.
I had my first cold shower a couple weeks ago and I got the same experience from it as you. It actually was the only time I tried, but after seeing your video I want to really continue with this. Excited to see what effect it has on my body. Thanks for the great video and explanation!
Good luck! ☺️🙏🏻
This is how you know when you are getting old.
If getting old feels this good, bring it on!
Katrin Berndt agreee getting old is a blessing
Katrin Berndt omg your puppy is cute
Well, getting old is bomb af. Stop using it as a bad thing.
It is lucky to grow into old age.
I actually saw this method on a netflix show called The Goop Lab. It's very interesting and I recommend all of you to watch it.
Never heart of him, but I got an advertisement for him, right before the vid. Thanks algorithm I guess?
I have Raynauds syndrome-- whenever I get stressed or come into contact with anything cold (air, a drink can, a tile floor) my veins contract in my hands and feet reducing circulation and turning my extremities white. I wonder if I could safely take a cold shower...I saw someone on the internet claiming it even helped their Raynauds. 🤔
From what I know it’s not recommended if you suffer from Raynauds. But consult your doctor! ♥️
Hell no, don't do this if you have circulation issues.
I would like to know how to start taking cold showers and how to progress🤔
You always shower cold from now on or like a few times a week?
All my showers end cold, but some of them start warm if I need to wash my hair for example. 😊
Hey Kat, great video. If you have not heard of Mikhaila Peterson before, you should look her up regarding how she changed her diet and it resolving her joint point (she has AutoImmune disease) if you are interested, keep up the good work!
I’m not very interested in changing my diet even though I know it could have benefits haha. So I’ll stick to this for now and if I ever get really desperate I’ll reconsider. 😂🙏🏻
He isnt the first as far as I know, but cold therapy has many benefits.
Absolutely not! It’s been around forever. But he is the one to combine the three pillars and do loads of research on that specific topic. He never claims to be the one who came up with the idea. ☺️❄️
You are so beautiful, love the hair in a knot as well 👌
Haha thank you! It’s held together with 1,000 bobby-pins 😂🙏🏻
@@Katrinberndt haha wow, that's determination to get it done 🙏😂
Katrin,you are such a sweetheart🌹🌼🌷🙏❤
Baby Yoda shirt!
Oh yes 😄
This is hard for me. I want to support you, but I really dislike Hof and his comments about how cold exposure can cure cancer and rheumatic chronic illnesses. So, I appreciate this works on some level for some but supporting him is icky to me.
I don’t know what he has said in the past but all I’ve heard in recent material is that he absolutely does not say it cures cancer or any kind of illness. So I don’t know where you got that info from but all I know is what I’ve heard and I think his relationship to science and promises is 100% reasonable and cautious. 😊
@@Katrinberndt from very reputable Dutch newspapers :) which I could link but you couldn't read. He has taken conclusions from scientific research that the researchers themselves disputed as unproven and they have warned him not to give false hope to chronically ill patients. It's good to hear he's come back from that if he has taken down those claims and does not support them anymore. I think it's fine to try his method in a controlled environment, but I think it's also important to stay cautious.
I agree, he's made a living out of offering false hope.
Joy video
Yes! :D
@@Katrinberndt 💚
I'm going to try the cold shower and see how it goes.
Do you feel you're less bothered by the cold in general after this?
I’m not sure yet haha. I still get cold of course but I think I have to do it a bit longer before I know if I’m less bothered in general. 😁
Tack för videon Katrin!
Starkt att testa något nytt, jag ska själv på en Wim Hof Workshop i Stockholm, ser fram emot det!
Nyttigt att se vad andra tycker, tack igen!
I'm so sceptical to everything like this, but when I see you praising it the way you do.... It kinda makes me want to try. Because you're the kind of zero bullshit factual person that I woulz trust, and you're always honest with your viewers. Do you think it would be beneficial to try it, even though I'm still HELLA sceptical? Or would you have to go into it with a mindset of "Yes, I can't wait to feel the benefits!"?
I don’t “believe” any of this stuff to be honest. The Wim Hof method is based on science that is actually measurable, but still I’m like naaah it can possibly work haha. But then after seeing the effects on myself I can’t help but believe in the benefits. But you really have to do the three pillars combined. Just the cold showers didn’t do much for me immediately except feeling really nice. 🥶😅 I mean as long as you practice safely and listen to your body you have nothing to lose!
@@Katrinberndt Haha, that's exactly me and exactly the reason why I want to try this. And it would definitely be nice to "feel nice" once in a while, certainly if a cold shower could help with that. I guess I'll follow your not-patented step-by-step guide with 1. Cold showers 2. Cold swim with an older person/relative, and 3. find a workshop somewhere close to me! :')
I imagine Borat joining in.
Bra skönt
see Porfiry Ivanov. Wim Hoff took his idea for his own changing something.
Baby yoda VS the ice age kid
You think a kid can beat baby yoda in cuteness? Hahahaha never
@@Katrinberndt hahaha no i meant actual fight, and u are cute btw UwU
Hahaha oh, yes I can support that. B)
I have UC
please make videos with swedish language
my relative died because of a cold shower, so sorry if I don't find it funny that nowadays everyone is so hyped about cold showers. the relative got a stroke from the shock and died shortly after. and no, cold showers were not new to him and he had no underlying diseases
I’m sorry for your loss but your anecdote does not cancel out all research about the heath benefits. No one is asking you to think it’s funny. 😊
@@Katrinberndt well I'm a health researcher and all the studies that support that claim are of poor quality or have a much too small sample size to carry any significance. Literally all of them.
That’s fine haha. You can choose what you make that mean and I can choose what I make it mean for me. I love my cold showers and I will keep taking them. 🙏🏻😊
@@Katrinberndt of course it's ok to have your own opinions. when you present dangerous methods to a wide audience and then call it scientific, then of course people who know the actual science get worried. cold showers are great until they suddenly aren't. this isn't about what it means for you or for me, it is about the lives and deaths of your audience
If you do receive alot of push back for this I feel it's just unhappy coincidence because Netflix recently released a series on Gweneth Paltrow's Goop which features the Hof method. The episode wasn't bad but the show recieved alot of critisim for being misleading in several episodes.
What Gwyneth said or what her series was about or people’s issues with it has nothing to do with me, so I won’t waste time worrying about it. But thanks for the concern! ♥️🙏🏻
I love you beautifull
