In this spoken‑word monologue, the speaker (identified as Wim Hof alongside Tahir Burhan) reflects on how to access inspiration and inner power through breath and a deeper “inner source.” He uses a prehistoric metaphor—glacial rocks left by nature’s forces—to illustrate the latent strength within each person. The narrative moves from describing a chaotic, “nothingness” origin to a confident stance where one can move metaphorical rocks, hear the “cry of the soul,” and align with a non‑material resonance that binds and lifts us. He emphasizes present‑moment awareness, personal responsibility, and the freedom to navigate one’s own brain chemistry, encouraging deep self‑confidence and the ability to choose one’s state regardless of external conditions (e.g., before or after coffee). The piece serves as an inspirational guide for breathwork, mindfulness, and self‑empowerment.

Chapters

Me and Tahir, we're just trying out to do some stuff. It's inspiration-based. But how to find the inspiration, the breathing, the inner source, the deeper subcurrent of it all? When the existing paradigm is getting through to our mind, minds and confusing us. And here we got to try it in a little studio somewhere in the Netherlands and talking about the past, the prehistorics, how these glacier big rocks were left behind by the forces of nature. And here we are now on top of that, talking, being. It's where it all started, from chaos, from nothing. And chaos from nothing. There we are with the conviction and the confidence to bring it on, to bring on that resonance, what resonates with everybody, every mind. Know that you are capable of moving those rocks. The cry, the cry of the soul. There we are on it, it's time, time to become that who we are in the depth arising, 'cause there's no blocking power no more. That's us, our soul, that what binds us, that what brings us, that what lets us fly. Until we don't hear that music, we keep on listening. Where are we? Here, lost in the moment. We don't know, completely neurologically disconnected in our brains. Have no fear, it's not yours. But be here in the moment and own your own mind. Be responsible, because you have the ability to respond from now on. That is this session about, to take it there, because every day we will wake up with the wrong chemistry, with the wrong neurology. Are we weak to choose? Or waking up? Maybe before the coffee, maybe after. It does not matter. We are in tune with that what goes beyond matter. Freedom, the ability to go into any part of your own brain. Come align with that and feel The feeling which derives from being within with the ability to go anywhere you wish. So it's confidence, deep self-confidence. Feel that. There you have a starting point.
