An introduction to: The Wim Hof Method, Fundamentals

Introductory courses are held from February 2020. Courses lead people to appreciate, first-hand the regenerative potential of The Wim Hof Method.

How I discovered The Wim Hof Method

When I read Wim Hof’s The force of the cold, it inspired me to practice – and after a short while, I felt unusually energetic. I embraced this “inner technology” practice, and soon my new routine displaced seasonal depression.

Beforehand, my work focused on external technologies, such as engineering. Now, I began to understand how transformative energy comes from within. This experience has helped me develop new levels of creativity and well-being.

Course Background

The elements are an extreme combination of blistering cold, spontaneous heat and perilous dangers.

Throughout billions of years the elements have shaped evolution. Our species is no exception. These energies define life’s capability to adapt, resist and heal. Mostly, they remain dormant, due to the comforts of daily life.

Comfort has become more dangerous than the elements. It seems we often submit to weakness and that sickness can overpower us. If you are convinced your mind can not be changed – you need this the most.

To access our formidable potential we must connect with nature.

The Wim Hof ​​Method Origin

Wim Hof, a Dutch Athlete and Trainer has distilled nature’s “way” into a succinct “method”. The idea is simple, with three fundamental pillars: cold exposure, focus and breathing,

The method connects us to our true nature, educating the body to awaken it’s healing strength.– What is the outcome of The Wim Hof Method? By Alessandro Ronca

The Wim Hof ​​Method Benefits

The method is a athletic performance enhancer, improving strength, endurance and mental awareness. It is the antidote to the frantic, distracting rhythm of modern life.

The Wim Hof ​​Method has made me more ambitious than ever

Since beginning The Wim Hof ​​Method, my body and mind work in harmony – I’m feeling more effective than ever.

Taking an experimental approach, I am gathering a team for my most ambitious project to date: The Fairtech Revolution. This challenges conventional thinking by being inventive with fewer resources.

Modernity relies on external technologies that hinder our individual and collective development. The Wim Hof ​​Method has helped me awaken an ancestral capacity, I call this coherence with nature: “The Human Component”. The Fairtech Revolution combines this coherence, working across-discipline and rethinking resources to bring about genuine sustainability.

Basically, how does The Wim Hof ​​Method work?

The Wim Hof ​​Method will condition your autonomic nervous system. This results in your immune system becoming more resilient. Conditioning, is a process of guided breathing techniques, focus and exposure to the cold.

The process trains your reactions, to accept the elements rather than fight them.

What is your personal experienced of The Wim Hof ​​Method ?

The first thing I noticed was better tolerance to the weather. Other changes that I noticed are: restful sleep. Increased creativity and improved concentration. Extra stamina for better physical sports performance. A reduction in recovery time after exercise. Increased determination to meet my goals – even enhanced perception in-bed!

There is nothing miraculous here. These qualities are already inside us. Continuous stress, work pressure: modernity in general, have us locked in negative patterns.

We live with shallow breathing, tachycardia (fast heartbeat whilst resting) and sugar-highs. We are unable to relax long enough to give our body time to regenerate, and we get further away from our well-being.

When we take time to apply our focus, we can heal – The Wim Hof ​​Method is a straightforward means to get there.

Anyone can do this!

This is not only for athletes, it is within your reach too. It is a change of mind – not super-powers! The paradox of comfort is by living in a constant warm temperature we deactivate capabilities we all have.
