Wim Hof Method - Strong, Happy & Healthy

Put in the simplest of terms, the Wim Hof Method is a natural path to an optimal state of body and mind. It harnesses the full extent of the elements of nature that our bodies already naturally interface with air and cold.

For the bigger part of human history, “extreme” cold was a natural part of our daily lives,  and it played an enormous role in keeping us healthy. Central to this is the biological mechanism known as hormesis: when confronted with a moderate stressor, our bodies respond with a disproportionately large biochemical response. We literally come back stronger. This is why working out gives you bigger muscles, and how a vaccine protects you against disease. Extreme physical exertion, hunger, cold — these used to be our medicine in a very literal sense.

With the comforts of the modern world, much of that has become lost. The stimuli are no longer there, and the natural antidote has been replaced with pharmaceuticals. However,  the hormetic mechanism is still inside our DNA, waiting to be tapped. What the Wim Hof  Method essentially does is simulate a traditional environment to awaken that natural power.  By reintroducing the cold, you induce that same stress response that has formed the backbone of our natural defenses over millennia.

How can the Wim Hof Method boost the immune system?

Through WHM breathing, you increase lymphatic flow. It has been scientifically proven that with the WHM you can upregulate your immunity by increasing the number of white blood cells (natural killer cells) and B-lymphocyte cells. These cells form the army in your body that fights off micro-organisms and viruses that don’t belong there. At the same time,  the WHM helps a person better influence the innate immune response resulting in lowering the severity of symptoms such as fever or headache. Overall, less inflammation and disease-like symptoms. This study showed that you can boost your immune system through the method. A strengthened immune system means a bigger arsenal to combat the infection and therefore fewer and less severe symptoms.

The WHM breathing meanwhile has a calming effect, which can help bring down stress, and help open us up to our emotions. The influx of oxygen and release of adrenalin also increases your energy reserves, and with that your endurance.

Both WHM breathing and exposure to cold stimulate the endocrine, lymphatic and circulatory systems, opening up various pathways and optimizing the ebb and flow of hormones, endorphins, and signaling proteins. This in turn reduces inflammation, speeds up recovery, improves sleep quality, and naturally elevates your mood.

With repeated practice, you gradually expand your comfort zone. You become more familiar with stressors of any kind — physical, emotional, spiritual. You grow more resilient and aren’t rocked as easily. As such the Wim Hof Method is ultimately a tool that can allow you to become Strong, Happy & Healthy.

Everybody can benefit, so be proactive in recommending the WHM to friends and family. The Wim Hof Method is very accessible and we offer many avenues for practice.
