The Wim Hof Method: Activate Your Full Human Potential

Wim writes about his lifelong journey that lead him to his ultimate discovery. I've been applying the wim hof method for 3 months now, I've went from someone who despises cold weather to one who showers in 3°C water first thing in the morning. What's great about this method is that no one can question its efficacy, you can start getting noticeable results since day 1.

Wim is a pioneer. The method is easy and effective. Anybody can do something for their wellbeing, you only need motivation, that's all! The science is there, but this solution for health is free of charge so doctors will probably not recommend it as there won't be any benefit (compared to pills and meds). Anyway: The best book I read this year and the start of a better health.

Amazing book about discovering your potential through breathing and cold exposure! Fun to read as well!

Love this man and his massage

Fact based, and practical book. It answers 3 questions: 1) What has been the personal journey of Wim Hoff with breath, and cold? 2) Why breath, and cold has a positive effect in body, and mind? 3) What are the exercises to get into it? After 1 month of cold showers, my personal experience is that I feel better (ie energy, focus, reinforce positive mindset, …) and curious about where it can lead.

The story and training of a superhuman !!!

A great read for anyone interested in cold plunge also just an interesting read.

This book is not worth it if you want to learn about breathing. Half of the book reads like an autobiography (with a lot of repeats) about Wim Hof and the other half reads like promotion material for his method. There are just a few breathing and meditation exercises, maybe 20 pages in total. By watching a few videos online you’ll learn more about the Wim Hof method and breathing in general than from reading this book. Wim Hof basically practices tummo breathing which is a technique that was developed by Tibetan monks. There are better books out there if you want to learn about breathing. For those that are interested, James Nestor’s book entitled Breath gives you a good overview about all breathing exercises.
