He climbed 20,000 feet up Mt. Everest while wearing only shorts and shoes. He\u2019s run a marathon barefoot above the Arctic Circle. He sat in an ice bath for two hours. He even swam 66 meters beneath polar ice caps. Many of his records were attempts to show the world that healing and high performance can be achieved if we go back to nature and how we have healing powers within ourselves.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Wim&#8217;s wild idea: To help humans connect to their inner power, heal and achieve big goals by using nature, cold exposure, breathing techniques and commitment.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Wim has worked with researchers all over the globe to back up his theories with the goal to reach more people and help them heal. Today there are several studies showing how the Wim Hof Method works. He\u2019s also has helped thousands of people learn to better control their own body temperature and immune systems through breathing exercises, commitment and meditation through his online and in person courses.<\/p>\n<p>Wim has taken a different path than many and this podcast is a bit of a wild ride. Listen as we talk about his philosophies, what he\u2019s doing next and the research he\u2019s excited about now. Plus, you get to hear him sing and talk about why we need to instill core values in our kids. <\/p>\n<p>Listen to this episode if:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You\u2019ve ever heard of Wim Hof (and even if you haven\u2019t) and want to learn more about his methods.<\/li>\n<li>You want to try cold therapy.<\/li>\n<li>You think it\u2019s time for humans to return to nature.<\/li>\n<li>You believe humans are capable of amazing things.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Subscribe to Wild Ideas Worth Living on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/wild-ideas-worth-living-interviews-on-adventure-outdoors\/id1183017174?mt=2\">Apple Podcasts<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/urldefense.proofpoint.com\/v2\/url?u=https-3A__wildideasworthliving.us14.list-2Dmanage.com_track_click-3Fu-3D906ddcb8082befb4355543def-26id-3D25f6390c3b-26e-3D0c09d7b9b5&amp;d=DwMFaQ&amp;c=CqkB-gCiM4xW6iOknju0uA&amp;r=UyrdvYnZmSEdNxuILFi6MQ&amp;m=kdwW0N1UeXPtTPFy01q22fKcCcSb3LAuN6mtDLpXjcI&amp;s=aR01yqAiaCnZtaoK5JJEKk3Cak1oHTnObojYepcttBU&amp;e=\">Spotify<\/a>\u00a0or wherever you get your podcasts.<\/p>\n<\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wim Hof on using nature to rediscover his inner power.
