This is a YouTube video titled "95% Of People GET SICK Because They Don't USE THIS SECRET TRICK" featuring a conversation between Wim Hof and Lewis Howes. The video, created on April 15, 2020, involves a discussion on the benefits of cold therapy, breathing exercises, and the importance of love and vulnerability in overcoming stress and boosting the immune system. They also discuss personal experiences and insights gained during quarantine.
Chapters
The coronavirus virus and or a bacteria cause inflammation. They go up the innate immune system. Can we control the innate immune system? That in science was shown to be not possible at will and now we have shown at will to bring it down.
Well, Wim, I appreciate you for taking the time. Thanks for being back. You've been on a couple times on the School of Greatness podcast and I just came back from Poland a couple months ago where it had to be the one of the most amazing weeks of my Life. And the 13 guys that were with me and it sounded like for you and for Aum, it was one of the most powerful weeks that you guys had doing this work for, for people. And you've been doing this work for 20, 30 years now, leading, guiding people. How. Just a recap before we get into this episode. How was that experience for you in terms of having, you know, all these big athlete guys come and business leaders and yeah, sure. Live in the house together for a week? How was that experience for you personally?
You know, as I, as I already told you, I see all these big guys and then I see people cry and they show emotion. These are people who have gone through the politics and the bollocks of life, entrepreneurs full steam all the time and their emotion is like far away. They got it all in control. And those emotions coming out in that week, that broke me. It broke me. The man in control, that's me. The Wim Hof, the signs and the man, the cool man, the Iceman himself, he just broke down into tears. He broke down and he had to become vulnerable. But that is only vulnerable in this sense. Open up completely and show your weakness is possible only with those who have gone through the same and show themselves also vulnerable. And that is a power I cannot control. I cannot control vulnerable people. I just have to break open and learn and be open and heal and then find the. The love together. Of course, that is the greatest experience a man can have during his life. This is all about the love. And you know from there that love is going to heal the world. That love is the real new paradigm. It is coming from the heart, being open, being able to be vulnerable. Show what you got inside because it is beautiful. Just let go fears and old paradigm and it all will become just great.
I love that. Was there anything that you learned from that week that supported you in the last few months with quarantine or with just everything that's happening in the world? Was there anything that opened up for you differently that you learned new that supported you in this Time. Yes.
It is that what you cannot control, which is the most essential, crucial, and important in life. It's love. It's like a flower. You cannot control a flower. Come on. You gotta let it go. And that is the greatest source of inspiration. So when I'm touched over there, then I can see it clearly again. Then I'm able to meditate. Because sitting, just sitting, they call it meditation. No, it is just being vulnerable within yourself. And witness the inner depth, the inner void, the inner whatever has been there always, and then full bloom there. Vulnerable, beautiful light. And it's innocent. That innocence is my source of inspiration. I'm able to go 24 hours talking about love from many angles, from science, going into a freezer and sit there for hours at minus 25 degrees Celsius. I mean, freezing, freezing, freezing. And invent all kinds of things. Because I have connection with the source of. Of inspiration, which is vulnerable, lovable. There it is. I love it, man. There I am. This is what the world needs to know.
Yeah. Has your lady seen any shifts in you over the last few months since that experience with us?
Yeah, there's a lot of catarsis going on.
Really?
Yes. It's like outer cleansing, inside cleansing. When you cleanse from the inside, you cleanse automatically from the outside. It's like spring cleaning all the time. And I feel just different. The energy. She tells me, I trust you more.
Wow.
She just told me she trusts me more because I am more who I am and what I am, where I have no control, but what is. And she can sense that. And that to me, that is just one of the biomarkers, say, I get. Also with my own family. You know the story now.
You had lots of. You didn't talk to them for, like, eight to 10 years, right?
Yeah, man. And now. And now it's all cleansed.
Really.
It's cleansing. It's all cleansing. It goes step by step. The old paradigm is very strong, but it is cleansing all. So that is an amazing positive avalanche going on.
Wow. Man. I am super happy for you. And I am grateful that you gave us that time for us to open up and transform and heal. And I am glad we were able to support you with a gift in return of witnessing that and helping you with your family and your inner world as well. So I'm glad to hear that. Wimbledon. I'm curious, how have you been responding to the quarantine time and coronavirus time? And it seems like a lot of people are more and more stressed than ever. You know, these weeks have Been building, getting worse and worse. People are stressing at home. What advice do you give for people who are isolated at home? Maybe they're getting at their partner a little bit more reactive more. Is it good to do cold therapy when you're already stressed or is there something else that you would recommend?
Cold therapy? Breathing therapies are to activate the body and in the depth and that goes past the our conditions, physiology. So what I say there is, this is time, there's change happening. It is on world scale and it is, it is about our consciousness, our perception, our neurology. And our neurology in, in the future needs to become more aware. We have to become more aware of who we are, what we are, what is the purpose of life, what is nature, what is love? Because there is the purpose and we are growing towards that. Everything stands still. Guys, stop it. It's over, it's done. Mother Nature has come and she says, children, stop it a moment. Because this is not development, this is destruction in the world. This now is a time of opportunity to go within and to reconnect with a new paradigm, with a new neurology. And that new neurology, perception, consciousness is a consciousness of love, of equal division in the world, equal communication. Backgrounds don't differ anymore because we all have a mind which needs to be much more in connection with our heart. Say the mother in New York is the same as the mother in Baghdad. They just want happiness, strength, health, the love of life for their children. And they should be able to guarantee that. And that is what I'm working at, like light workers. But because we talk about light, everybody, oh wait, that is too much for me. I go by science, I want factual, I go by science, I am factual. And these professors, after investigating the functioning of the brain at will, see that we have come to a new possible neurology, a new control wherein we at will are able to tap into our brain, the seat of the mind, into the deepest and with the deepest, actually everywhere. And that is going to be the new paradigm where people are able to control within their own brain so much more. And you know, in the end, when people have control within their own mind, deeper, stronger and better, what would they choose? Would they choose an unhappy set of lifestyle or a happy set of lifestyle? The world is going to be happy because people are going to be within their control. I already did these studies. I'm just a pioneer. I just show beyond speculation what human brain and a human will is possible within that brain, within the mind. And, and if people have A real choice between having 10 cars or happiness. They are going to choose happiness. Yeah.
What do you think are three things we can do on a daily basis? Simple things to help us have more control over our own mind?
Yes. I would say if you go to a shower, have a nice hot one and done. Because that is vascular fitness. Your energy run a lot better afterwards. And that means when you sit, your energy flow, your blood flow is a lot better. So you just feel better because the energy flows better. That is vascular fitness. So end up, you say high quality. Yes. Alternate is even better because then you open up close, open up close. And then you train the millions of little muscles in the vascular system which is helping the blood flow go through the system. And then the heart rate goes down with 20, 30 beats a minute. That means stress. Bye bye stress. You don't feel this stress anymore. You are in control of your own body and your blood flow is running to the cells, feeding the cells. You get a lot of energy and that energy is without stress. You are simply there. That is what a cold shower can do. It's amazing. And from there I say do 20, 25 minutes of deep breathing exercises because it has been shown that it changes the chemistry. You become actually the alchemist in the morning. Make sure that you are the alchemist. You are the ruler within your own mind and your own body. That is the mindset. And the cold shower will help your vascular system which is running through everything you got. And the breathing is changing the chemistry. And then suddenly you find out that that consciousness, the way we actually are within our brain is to be the master over our stress, over our health, over our happiness. It's all there. That is going to be the new paradigm. We are the directors or the presidents within our the kings and the queens. We shine the crown, the corona, the crown, the crown. That's who we are. We are. We should behave like kings and queens and feel alike. And we should be able to rule over the world of what we see and bring love and prosperity. There we are. And now it is science. So psychology goes over physiology, Michigan studied brain over body. It is there. And now it's the time that the scientific world will have to take up that the defense system and every individual in the world is able to be altered within one day or half a day. Half a day. And I can channel a challenge any scientists to prove me wrong because we got all the data and I'm asking, please, scientists look into this. If you want to talk inflammation, can we influence that? What causes damage in the coronavirus infection, that is the IL1, the IL11, the IL6, the IL8, interleurkines, those are interleurkins, inflammation markers. Can we bring them down with that control the damage? That's what we have shown. We are shown to bring it down. And that was the first group in scientific research ever who was able to bring it down in such a way that they did not feel the fever, uncontrollable shivering, nausea, vomiting, back aches, muscle aches and all caused by a bacteria injected. In the end it causes inflammation and the inflammation markers went down. The coronavirus virus and or bacteria cause inflammation. They go up. The innate immune system. Can we control the innate immune system? That in science was shown to be not possible at will and now we are shown at will to bring it down so that inaugurates in the future. And they have to techniques that enable people massively all over the world to be much more into influencing their innate immune system and therefore bringing down the damaging factors of inflammation and control their immune system a lot better. So viruses through the white blood cell increase, which we also through science have shown. Those are the detectors, those are the little Sherlock Holmes inside our bloodstream. And when the bad guy is coming in, then the Sherlock Holmes knows how to detect and then inflammation doesn't need to happen because a little bad guy is not able to do damage. And this we have shown and this in the end shows, hey, if we are able to take down the inflammation and with that change the perspective of what we at will as humans are able to do in relationship to disease in general, then there will be a big change. People become much more self aware, begin to do these breathing techniques, take the damn cold shower and feel great.
I love it, man. When is the last time you got the flu or got a cold or got sick where you were out for a while. Do you remember the last time?
Must be amnesia, but I don't know, I forgot. It's not there.
You're doing cold training often. You're leading retreats every other week. You're climbing, you know, a mountain and snow and freezing cold, shirtless. You're jumping in freezing rivers, cold tubs, ice showers. You're doing these things but you don't remember the last time you got sick. Maybe a little, little here and there, but you were able to get yourself back to full power. Are you in this time staying at home and making sure you're protecting yourself and the ones around you even though you're trained to not get sick? Or are you saying you know, I'm gonna go outside, I'm gonna live my life. I'm gonna touch everything and touch my mouth and I'm not worried. What's your mindset during this time?
I'm absolutely not in fear related to coronavirus infection. I know how to beat, to beat it. I know how to pre. To spike up my immune system. I know this. I already talked to the university and I told them, hey guys, you still got my blood, my blood taken while I was doing my exercises. And that blood has shown to be resistant against bacteria injected into the blood. Normally there is aggressive reaction of the immune cells ex vivo in laboratory setting. So without me. But it's my blood and they took it when I was doing my exercising and they took it. Normally there is a very violent reaction on the immune cells. Now they took my blood and they put in the same bacteria and there was zero reaction on the immune cells.
Really.
Zero? Zero. So I told him yes, coronavirus or just with any virus that what creates inflammation. And coronavirus also just creates inflammation. So we were not able to bring down inflammation at will. And I showed how to bring it completely down. So at least let them investigate how this is possible because I've been showing it. And then they told me, you are the only one who is able to do this because you are the Iceman. Then I directly said no. Give me a group of people and I will show just in a couple of days how to bring them to the autonomic nervous system and the innate immune system how to bring down inflammation. And then you test them all with the bacteria, you inject them and cause inflammation in the body, the innate immune system reaction. And then you will see they all will bring it down. That in contrary of hundreds and thousands of people who have done the same experiment and all got sick.
Wow. Now there we are. If someone is feeling sick right now and maybe they have coronavirus, maybe they just have the flu or some type of cold or something else. Maybe they're causing sickness because of the mind and how they're stressing so much. Who knows why? What would you say people should do? Obviously if they're, if they're sick, they should probably stay quarantined with this practice. But what should they do in terms of just feeling better to try to strengthen the immune system and weaken the sickness? What is something they could do every day? Is it 20 minutes a day of breathing like you said and doing the ice stuff, even if they feel weak? Will that help? Is it more breathing? What's the strategy to Increase the immune system.
If they feel weak, then they should do the breathing exercises. The breathing exercises changes the chemistry, brings down the inflammation. And when it is brought down through the breathing techniques, not hey, just do a little bit of breathing. Yeah, I breathe already all day long. No, not that way. Just follow the protocol, which these guys in the university also did. Also those people are humans, so you are human. Follow the protocol and then it will show you will bring down inflammation which was weakening the person. So the person feels weak, he brings down through the breathing techniques the inflammation. Then he feels strong again, he feels connection again. And that is feeling strong.
And from there starts to fight off the sickness.
Yes, the inflammation goes down with that the sickness. And with that he feels he has control within his immune system at will again. Gives confidence and great feeling. That is one. And then from there, then take a hot shower, take a cold one afterwards from 30 seconds to two minutes and you're going to feel even greater because you are exercising and activating the transportation system of your body. And it's all logic.
Why does breathing help boost the immune system by itself? Why is air into your body and your cells? Why does that help?
Yes, when we do these breathing exercises we have shown in the university, they work different than any other breathing technique. I have been looking up and I've gone through science to show it. So it's factual. It's factual. This breathing techniques, I've been exercising randomly by going into cold water. And cold water is real stress. And when real stress comes and you are able by certain kinds of ways of breathing, then those breathing techniques that is able to fend off the stress of the cold. And so those breathing techniques, after being so much in the cold I took home, I began to do those same breathing techniques which I was doing before to fend off the cold. I took them home and began to exercise at home. And then it shows. Wow, this goes deep. It changes my consciousness, It. It changes my feeling deeply. I see all the lights, I see all the chakras, I see enlightenment, I see anything. I learned it by going into a cold water. And cold water is merciless. But righteous is what I always say. But it is so it is my teacher. If it works in cold water, it will work against any virus and or any bacteria. I love that and more. So you learn, if you learn how to deal with cold water, which is very stressful, which goes directly into your emotion, you learn also to deal with your emotion, with your mood. And this has now been shown in the brain scans that I'm able to connect with the areas where emotion is is a residing where while stress is coming upon my body, I was able to feel euphoria. And you could not miss because you could see the brain and within the brain, you know, where is the area of emotion and where's the area of pain and sensation. And they saw it all. And that was for the first time all learned in the cold water. Then I took that breathing, those became techniques. I took them home, began to do them. And it amazing what I also. And then I went to the university and they gave me an injection. I began to do these breathing techniques. And the bacteria had no chance because I was. Now, the mechanism of the breathing goes as follows. Because we alkalize the body by blowing off the carbon dioxide, we are able to stay after say, two minutes of deep breathing, blowing off the carbon dioxide. Then to stay without breathing because the carbon dioxide trigger is gone. It is gone, the body is alkalized. So there is no need for breathing. The only need for breathing is because the body becomes acidic carbon dioxide, that is. And then the trigger is going to work and you feel, I need to breathe. But if the trigger is no longer there because your body is alkaline and not acidic, then you don't need to breathe. But what happens now because you do not breathe? The oxygen amount, saturation of oxygen in the blood after 12 minute is going drastically down where people normally die. This is where I showed this and I teach these people. I taught you too, you know, showed you in the breathing. And this when that happens, when the saturation of the oxygen goes down, but the body's chemistry is still alkaline, it is able to go down without damaging the body. But what happens in the deepest part of the brain which is reactive? The brain stem, the reptilian brain, the oldest part of the brain, it goes into survival. It shoots out adrenaline because it reacts as if there is a great danger going on. And what happens with the epinephrine which is activated in the deepest part of the brain? It shoots out through the body into the bloodstream and it resets the body. And when it resets the body, the immune system is working again the way nature meant it to be. And what was it to fend off bacteria and virus? Because with a virus or with the bacteria, you cannot function in nature. So nature has got these great capabilities given to us. But we, with our comfort zone behavior, we think we can heat it up and bring it the heat down by air conditioning in the summer and heating up in the winter. We are in a non stimulative being, while we got a perfect machine to adapt all the time. And when danger then comes, it knows directly how to adapt to the aggressor. Because you got environmental stress, mental stress, emotional stress, bacterial stress, virus, viral stress. It's all. Yes, exactly. Work stress, coronavirus stress, the lockdown stress, the opening up stress again. Any stress is in the end stress. And we have the capability to adapt towards it and to find solutions. And this time of the coronavirus lockdown, inside being at home, learn about yourself. Learn about your inner nature, the way nature meant it to be. Because it is a great nature. You have the power to adapt to about anything. Stress has no stress. As a teacher, it will show how to stay relaxed in euphoria. No pain, no boredom, anything. Your energy stays clean. That is the way an animal is able to function in nature. And we are animals, beautiful animals with a beautiful mind.
We are beautiful animals. We just got to cleanse ourselves. I'm curious, what can we do or how much stress should we be putting on our bodies on a daily basis that is self induced. That is for the purposes of strengthening ourselves in our environment as opposed to, you know, is there too much stress that we can put on ourselves? Of just saying I'm going to, you know, five hours of breathing and ice training, or is it no need.
Yes, I got you. There is no need for go five hours. But if you sometimes want to challenge yourself, you better have a vessel, a body which is working well if you got it. Like September, for example. I want to show the world that we with 32 people. And I also challenged Russell Brand, challenged Aubrey Marquez. He is coming to climb the Kilimanjaro in one day in shorts, 32 people. You know what happens? We are going to show that we voluntarily are able to generate more red cells, which was thought of impossible. And white blood cells, both. So white blood cells, that's the immune system. Those are the little detectives within us. Are we able to increase that and go past the existent knowledge of what we as humans at will are able with our physiology? I'm going to show that. And with that 32 people. And. And I'm asking you, Louis, like the mountain in Poland, there is a new mountain. I mean, you are a big man and you will see over the top before me. But it's a challenge. I would love you to come to show the world that through breathing techniques and our mindset, we are able to alter into a physiology which is showing the world the new paradigm. Because then everybody is able to do it and we do it spectacularly. It is a lifetime experience. It is not only going deep, it's becoming who we are. And scientists will come and they will show, wow, this is breaking all the physiological laws and considered for humans to be able to control. And this goes way beyond. And that is the new paradigm. So how much do we have to train for that? Sometimes I go for 12 hours -25 running in my freezer. But then for days I'm just take the cold shower, do my breathing. And I love it. But most of it, it is, I believe I can do this, I believe I can change myself, I can change the world. I can show the world that we are capable of so much more. So for now I say, hey, 25 minutes of breathing and take a cold shower. That is a great vascular fitness. And you become the alchemist through the breathing. And you will become aware that that you are able to alter and to change yourself into depth. And with that you will open up to the great potential you got given by nature. I'm curious, five minutes.
Yeah, I'm curious. There's a lot of uncertainty in people's minds lately and there's a lot of uncertainty about the future. And I'm curious, in your opinion, what's the best way to overcome self doubt, uncertainty, fear of the future and build more of this belief in people's selves the way you believe in yourself. What can we do to train our mind and our life to believe in ourselves more and overcome self doubt?
Yes, self doubt comes from the subconscious which knows you are not in the right connection to be able to deal with the situations coming. It knows it and that creates self doubt. It's a messenger. It says, hey, do something about it. I'm your friend. And this is doubt. You are not ready for what is going to come. And I know in the subconscious what is going to come and you are not ready. So I tell them the same. Go into the breathing, go past blockages, go past the conditioning of the mind and the body. Because the breathing is like water, it goes everywhere, it goes past it, it will create the right chemistry, it will unblock the wrong chemistry. And with that you get a connection because it's open, the blockages are out. And with that comes a confidence that the confidence is the feeling that you are open, that the flow is there, that you are in control of that. And then your subconscious will say, hey, it's okay, you are a child, you can go play because you did your homework. Go. It's a Feeling that feeling of confidence that is natural and it's for everybody. It's there. But all the time it's absolute and it's very accessible and very effective through this breathing, through the cold shower. And then your belief will be there. It is a rule by the subconscious. But now we know how to get into the subconscious and take away any blockage, fear, inhibition. And then your subconscious will say, will just be there, just being there. Meditation should be 24 hours a day. Like no fear, no inhibition. Everything is beautiful because there is flow.
Yeah. Yeah, man. How important is it for us to stay playful and have fun and sing and dance in this time of quarantine? You know, when we're dealing with so much stress, do these things help us overcome that as well? And what are you doing on a daily basis with your, you know, your wife and your kids at home to, to allow yourself to get your mind off these things?
Yeah. Most of the day now I'm playing with my two year old.
Yeah.
And not only he is ridiculous. He doesn't let me go on the telephone, look through the podcast or, or talk to the people. He's just get your ass over here. I need your attention. I want you to be my teacher. Show me everything you got. Because I got all the energy of the world and I love it. So he's teaching me, actually he's teaching me how to be just there, fully there. There is nothing in my mind because I have to go to the level of a two years old man. It's not complicated, it is just being. And he does a great job. So I'm very happy with my kid. And in between I do some training. I like to do some physical exercise. Tomorrow people will come. I will do running in the freezer and have a great sauna afterwards and talk with the people about life. Because it is great to commute to share with people. And this once again is a great opportunity to find out that the stillness of your mind that is the real control is in letting go all the shit and be with who you are and what you are. And what you are and who you are is beautiful. So find out if beauty use the damn cold shower and some breathing to change the chemistry and to go past the inhibitions and the anxiety and all and come to in terms with yourself. 24 hours meditation. That's who we are.
Yeah, man. What's the greatest lesson your 2 year old has taught you about yourself that you, that you forgot about? What's something that taught you?
Amazing. He's just there. Bluntly there from the morning, he comes running. I'm then already awake and, you know, at six o' clock and doing my breathing, and then I'm sitting there looking at the coronavirus news and things, and then he comes past the door, you're running, daddy, Daddy, Daddy, Daddy. That's what he does. And he gives me a hug. And from there I am his. Nobody else is anymore. I'm his. And I'm serving him because it's so lovable.
That's amazing, man.
So he teaches me, let it go, love. And you have a great experience. You are not into your mind, not into your ego, not into the oldest thinking. You become simple and simply there. And then I see. It's amazing that I missed out on all this while I was traveling to Australia, to Los Angeles, to New York, to Paris, to London, to Amsterdam, to South Africa and all that, and going on speeches over there, workshops over there, retreats over there, and working on books and this and that and. Oh, shut up. Be here for me. I love you, you love me. There it is.
That's amazing. And what's a lesson you've learned with quarantine, with you and your lady and your wife? Have you learned something new about yourself by being more isolated and in a confined space as opposed to going out and traveling? Has there something you've had to overcome, challenges or any lessons you learned that you would share with us?
Yes, I think the coronavirus, the blessing of the coronavirus, besides of course, the terrible death toll, which is existence. It's like a lesson, a hard lesson, a root lesson of mother and nature coming to us and we have to stop. We cannot just voraciously go and keep on with production mode, exploiting the world and polluting the world and staying insensitive towards each other because it's all competitive and all. No, it has stopped. It has stopped. My traveling has stopped, my mind has stopped. My little kid brings me right here and right now. And let me tell you, it is the busiest time ever of me, because I'm seeing that what I've been advocating the last 40 years through that nature has the answer, where we all have the problems and still looking at those problems. Nature has the answer. We have to get back to nature. And this is the time I'm busy, like a busy bee in springtime, polluting, pollinating over here and there and there and there and there, doing podcasts with great people like yourself, bringing out the news that the world is going to change for the great, for the positive, for the love. And we are Going to do this together. This is what is going to happen. And it needs work. It needs our beliefs. It needs our uninhibited being and being as a torch of light. Here I am. Here we are. And this is what we do together with the scientists all over the world. It is time for love to rise. Yeah, there we are.
Do you feel like your love and intimacy is connected stronger with your wife? Or do you feel like you guys have had some challenging conversations because you're isolated together more now?
You know, I go back to the beginning of our conversation. It is cleansing. A cleansing. Finally, I am home. Finally I get time to talk about.
The things that you didn't talk about or you can address these things.
Yeah. Yes, absolutely. And they, you know, you do not even need to talk. They come and then you talk. It's not that you invent these things come up. Finally I got time to have it come from the bottom up. This is nature. And yeah, I love it. I love it. I welcome it all the time.
What was the thing that you needed to cleanse with your wife that you guys hadn't talked about or didn't cleanse yet? Was there a conversation? Was there?
So many things, so many things. Too many things. Almost. I'm actually getting back to my wife the way I was in the beginning. You know, in the beginning, when you are with a woman you feel attracted to, there is no words. There is just bloody great energy. And you can go through it all. You just want to go from A to B. So then in time between A and B is a 1 and a 2 and a 300 and all kinds of thoughts and this and they. The energy weakens and that energy is being brought back. And I see it and I feel it. So instead of knowing how to address things, it is that these addressing things, these things go away. So there is no addressing this. The love is becoming stronger. The presence is becoming stronger. The gratitude is becoming stronger. I see her back again, the way it all began. And I'm so grateful for every. Every moment. Every moment. I say, wow. I'm just looking at her. Wow. I'm a lucky bastard to have you as my wife. And I think you are so beautiful, so amazing. What qualities. I can see them again. I can feel them again. Amazing.
Yeah, that's beautiful to see. And I think we might lose that sense of wonder and curiosity when we're isolated with someone so much. We might lose that because we're getting frustrated or stressed that we're not going out and doing our routine or having space. But if we can come from your point of view, Wim, and appreciate more and express more gratitude and rediscover the qualities we love about our partner.
Yes.
From the beginning, it's going to create that magical experience as opposed to a challenging, stressful one that wants me to like get at someone's throat and get out of.
Yeah.
And I think it's rediscovering that curiosity and just showing more appreciation and love that will rekindle a relationship that maybe had just challenges or that will strengthen one that's already strong. So it's like appreciation and gratitude is like breathing and ice therapy for your relationship, right?
Yes. Yes. Break the ice, go into it and come out alive, like activated from the depth. And you know, when you are in love, you don't think, you just want to go to your love. That power we have now, the opportunity to get into that power, anything. If you want real control of the mind, be in love, Be in control of your love. In learning to let go, if you feel the love, you are in control of the mind. Because then the mind is there. It is there to serve you. It's not to dominate you, it's to serve you. And then the love is there. Because we all want love. We all want happiness. The control of the mind is love.
You're giving me some good love advice right now. I love this whim. You've got a, you've got a book that people can pre order right now. It's out this fall. But I'm so excited about this book and I want everyone to pre order this and if those are. You don't want to pre order right now. You can also follow Wim on social media. You have a 40 day quarantine challenge, which I think is going to be so helpful. If you follow this challenge, they can go to your Instagram, they can go to your website to check out this challenge. Go do this challenge. It's simple stuff, like five minutes a day that they can do. And you also have an incredible app that is free in the app Store. If you guys download the Wim Hof app, the breathing app, it's amazing. It's going to be Wim guiding you through meditation, breathing exercises, challenging you to improve your breathing techniques and everything that Wim's talked about during this time together today, he's going to guide you through that. And it's free over there on the app. You've also got incredible workshops that when we can go out into the world again and into nature again as a groups, you'll be able to sign up for those and go do those in the future. But again, from the beginning, me and a group of 13 guys went to Poland, experienced this first ham. It was life changing. We all said it was one of the greatest weeks of our lives. And I've had some amazing weeks, but this was one of the greatest. So I highly recommend you sign up for the app. Do a retreat in the future when you can get the book. Do the 40 day challenge. We also Wim, we're also editing this footage from Poland that we're making into like a mini 20, 30 minute documentary. I saw the first rough cut the other day. It's going to be really good, man.
That's good.
So we're going to release that soon. Soon on, on YouTube probably and on social media. But stay tuned for that.
That was amazing. If people get, if people get that being vulnerable actually is strength that leads up to love, which is the absolute control of the mind. And we got it all scientifically endorsed. Now we know how to. We are the pioneers. We are advocating the new human, the paradigm shift, the change that will embedded humanity and the world. That's what we do right now. And it's all, all the science is behind it. It's now the science of the soul. And we are just mediums. We stand here full confident within our words because we are men. We rise from the past and here we are shining like the light and we can guide and direct because we all love all.
Wim Hof thank you so much my man, for always taking the time and sharing your wisdom, your love, your light and challenging us to be better human beings. I appreciate you my man and we will talk to you soon.
