Conquer Your Mind with Wim Hof | Jim Kwik

How do you conquer your mind for greater happiness, strength, and health?
We have a very special guest today, Wim Hof. Wim got his nickname “The Iceman” after he broke many records with regards to resisting cold. Some of his feats include climbing Mount Kilimanjaro in shorts, running a half marathon above the Arctic Circle on his bare feet, and standing in a container while covered with ice cubes for more than 112 minutes.
Wim is convinced that our bodies are capable of doing the same exceptionally things his body allows him to do. Therefore, he has developed his Wim Hof Method that gives ordinary people the tools to take control over their body.
In this episode, we will go over how to activate parts of your brain using the Wim Hof Method to enable parts of your mind to accomplish greater feats. Learn more about Wim's method here: www.wimhofmethod.com/

Imagine this was taught to people in school starting from a very young age, as well as Jim’s knowledge about the brain, our world would be a completely different place

[@katekleinsteuber7652]

It sure would!

[@leonkabowu4924]

It’s the “Wim ‘n Jim Show” everybody!

[@joeiffert9220]

Absolutely awesome to think about!!! It would be like reverse Hitler youth

[@kakolidebnath8119]

15 days before, I have started Wim's breathing method on a regular basis. When I do it I can feel the energy increase in my mind and body. I feel so happy energetic and peace. I enjoy this breathing. Thank you Wim Hof!

[@ninjashhh8344]

That dude, is such an AMAZING, POSITIVE force 🤙😎🤙

[@theegreatestever2420]

He definitely will be remembered as one of the truly great ones!

[@DONCROWN3]

I took a cold shower today... 🥶 but not that cold, I started gradually and I feel happy 😻

[@okaksang1111]

I stopped drinking coffee. Morning cold baths are so powerful.

[@henrychang340]

Absolutely true. We have total control over what happens within ourselves; all that really matters. Energy, awareness, and consciousness.

[@jeannievail]

That superhero story moved me to tears. Thanks 😊

[@pianorama]

I can't hear enough from Wim Hof. I've never met a shaman from ancient Siberia or a flying Tibetan monk but what Wim gives is even better, a method for having health, happiness and strength that anyone can practice, right here and right now. He is a world treasure. I can think of only one person who has this knowledge, the recluse Anastasia, the inspiration and fount of wisdom we meet in the book series, Ringing Series of Russia by Vladimir Megré. Our purpose in life is to create a domain of love and nature gives us all we need.

[@youdontknowwhoiam5097]

So happy to receive these techniques. Also happy to see Wim wearing the necklace I made out of glass for him that I was able to give to him at the seminar in S.F. I do the breathing and cold showers daily. Thank you so much

[@jiminawake5926]

Necklace looks awesome. Great creation

[@jennthebiologist1835]

Love wim hof! Ever since I heard about him I've started having cold showers instead of hot and feel more energized and don't get sick as often 😃

[@Lizardmanisbest]

The power of the breath is fascinating. Much Love.

[@wendybayliss8459]

I have been doing the Wim Hof breathing and cold shower for 9 days now. I am 73 yrs old. I have PTSD since 13 yrs ago. The first day of only breathing I felt the best I have in 13 yrs (since the trauma). I had a stye in my eye start after my 3rd day. It was sore for 1 day and was irritated (sore only if I touched the area, and now it is gone, after 4 days. Usually it is really sore and I have to use medication for at least 7 days!. THIS WORKS! I no longer have the negative thoughts and fear and defensiveness I had with the PTSD....and I have been meditating for 2 hrs a day, yoga, and exercise for years........and this is what made the difference in my FEELING well. Thank you Wim for your years of proving to science so that science knows it is credible. Although I knew in jus doing the Breathing once!

[@ingbretsonchiropractic429]

OMG! 2 of my superhero gurus together in the same room! @Jimquik and @wimhof I love you BOTH! Thank you!!! Just THANK YOU!!!

Thank you. Bless us all.

[@austinwellner9036]

Thank you Wim & Jim!!! I’ve been dealing with post surgical issues since having a lumbar laminectomy at the beginning of this year, and honestly it’s been the mental fatigue that’s worse over anything. I’m 24 and already had 3 herniations and am getting an MRI soon for another 1-2 that we think I may have. Degenerative disc runs in the family as well. I’ve been spending the last few months (most of this current year) trying to reprogram my mind as I believe my environment played a huge factor to my current state. Through breath work (Wim, teaching to alkaline the body was amazing) and mental training, the pain has become next to nothing (along with minimal cannabis therapy as it’s legal in my state). I’m determined to NOT fight for my limitations but rather fight for my progressive opportunities. I believe we have so much more we can achieve if we were to simply just put our minds to it, and you two are a shining example of just that. Sending good vibes, and going to go look for how I can impact love into my environment today. Keep up the good work both of you!

[@Io-Io-Io]

This guy is so fascinating, telling things l felt very strongly myself when l was young. I couldn't explore it as he could-the world fights you. Good thing he does this. Show em Wim! Teach em! I feel l'm pretty resentful towards the world actually, as it fights what it does not know, afraid, trying to ridicule & then use legal force against you. Ignorants rule.

[@jeffglaza8318]

This is making me do things I thought was impossible. Own your own mind. Thanks, Jim and Wim.

[@juliavanrun-kilic1744]

Love this!💝 started the Method 3 days ago...getting good at the 15 seconds of cold shower🤣 of the first week. Lots of inflammation in my body. History of depression. Meditation already helped me. But this helps me getting into the body: the breath is the body- mind link!😃. Wim’s message seems to get across what I already read about Pranayama, chi-gong, but I haven’t managed to integrate till now. Thank you for this Wim. Thank you Jim for this interview! And your mastermind🙃! Thank you for what you do! Push boundaries. Show us that it’s possible!💝

[@naturaloddities5981]

Just saw Jim in the Transcendence documentary. His story is so inspiring. Absolutely LOVE Wim as well. He is a very bright light in this world.

[@roxanecarbery1759]

My take away are that intention and discipline are key. I have been having cold showers for 2 months now. I have noticed my skin is better then ever.

[@LisaDawnn]

Our species once knew all this. We were very innate beings (still are) but somehow we lost it. And as we evolved (again) we handed over all our power to deities (via religions) and replaced our wisdom with education (via academia) while growing weaker and more dependent. We're collectively starting to see the error of the past and finally starting to right the wrongs. Happy 2019.

[@luckyduckimona9787]

LisaDawnn Yes, Lisa! The religions have created people who don't do or think for themselves, they just ask their gods for what they wish for, instead of making it happen themselves. The old saying of "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" has been replaced with "I am weak, don't hurt my feelings".

It's the realization of how to initiate at will the power of adrenaline. With adrenaline, nothing seems unsurmountable. We just do it, as Wim said. The power of adrenaline is what we need to combat things like procrastination!

[@wifeofkhan9375]

I was lucky to train with Wim a couple years ago, and then to do more extended training with one of his highest level Instructors. It is an incredible method. It’s so much more subtle than it gets generally presented as. It brings you to a deep place of relaxation, and then you just “let go” of the cold (stress). It’s accepting rather than overcoming or pushing away. Thanks for posting the interview :)

[@jeremiahhill5851]

If you got the courage to endure the cold this man can change your health.

I do cold swimming in my pool during winter 48 degrees Fahrenheit. With Wims breathing method it's much easier and I found I can like the cold even though I live in CA.

[@lloydswhitedorpers]

You missed the most the biggest problem the affect us all, that is I believe the effect of mindsets on longevity because we are the only creature that am aware of that think and we think we are old therefore it causes us a mental barrier but Wim Hoff has open up a new paradigm a new world to most of us, that we were not aware of before, we are born fully conscious then we have that consciousness taken away at a very early age and we start to get it back in old age but by then too much misleading damage has been imposed in our minds. I like and follow Wim Hoffs guided breathing on waking then your 10 Morning Habits, thanks to both. I would appreciate your thoughts regarding above on longevity restrictions.

[@gushlawnews1]

My lower back has been in pain for a week since I went hiking and I went to chiropractor and walked out feeling the same. I sat on the floor trying some stretch exercises but they didnt work. I saw 1 of his videos, started breathing and I got up with almost 0 pain... it went from a 10 to a 1.... now later it came back because I drove around for a bit and it effected my back again but when i do the breathing it helps every time.

[@iraqpride]

100% brother. take it from a man who has lower back pain for several years. Include daily Cold showers for me that did miracles

[@waedjradi]

You can heal it.

[@Motherkuen]

Kevin I hope your back is feeling better now. The breathing that Wim Hof does helps activate your TVA muscles and that is why you felt better. The breathing method also activates all the other things that Wim mentions in all of his interviews along with the cold showers. Most people think that outside muscles make you strong..(what you can see on the outside) but that is not true..it's all the underlying core that makes you stronger..it's mostly on the inside!! if you would like some new types of exercises check out Ido Portal and also Strength Side. cheers!

[@xanniegaming8760]

@@Motherkuen Can you actually cure the pain permanently or does it only work for 1 minute after doing the breathing.

[@Motherkuen]

@@xanniegaming8760 if you look for videos that strengthen your inner core muscles and also add the breathing, cold shower it helps a lot. I don't know where your pain is but pain can also be caused by what some call negative thoughts. if you heal your being...then you become well!!! I know it might sound a bit weird or strange but it's true! it's all about the energy of the body if the energy is moving or stuck.

Yea, WHICH QUESTION ?

[@yamilsenior]

His method is amazing I've been doing it now for about 5 days and I do have more energy and health but what really fascinates me is what he is talking about of activating the immune system at will through the mind. We are remembering what we use to know, that the mind and the body are not separate but part of the same thing.

[@aquapro8433]

Wim is truly an inspiration. His breathing method is very powerful. I was very surprised when I first started it and never thought I’d be able to hold my breath for 3 minutes. But it works. Give it a go if you have not tried it. It will change your life. #wimhof

Symptoms of hyperthermia (feeling warm when one is freezing), can be dangerously misleading to the person having them. So reframing that state and knowing when to protect the body from permanent and life threatening damage is valuable self knowledge. It appears the immune system is a bit like a muscle that gets bigger with exercise. Hypnosis can switch off pain receptors and allow for deep relaxation which is a powerful environment for healing. Wim is tapping mind power with the knowledge of how to access it in a balanced way. A balance of technique and self hypnotic philosophy perhaps. Breath on.

I read in a book by Lee Albert, “Living Pain Free”, that in pristine areas, the oxygen levels are about 20 %,In urban areas they are about 15%, in households they can be as low as 10%. In ice cores that go back around 3000 years, they are as much as 40%. You think maybe we need more oxygen? Wim’s breathing may be the most effective way of getting more oxygen quickly.

It is not the mind, it is the power of the heart. The mind is just a tool. Once you are in tap with the divine inside of you, then yes, all is possible. Of course, along the way you conquer the body as well. In Yogic science, the goal is to transcend the body and mind. Pranam.
