Show Notes:
[3:30] Jordan and Mikhaila Peterson sit down with the legendary Wim Hof to discuss some of his amazing feats of human conditioning and scientific breakthroughs..
[5:00] Wim gives the condensed version of his story. Being a seeker of knowledge led eventually to making some of his discoveries like the Wim breathing method and the effects of cold therapy. He says it was simply a gut feeling that drew him to cold water and to nature, that it just felt right. Challenging himself in harsh unforgiving environments year after year has led to a mind and body connection many would believe to be impossible.
[13:30] Wim talks about how he is able to have control over systems in the body that scientists believed were autonomous, not something our conscious mind could connect to. Wim has been able, scientifically checked, to control his own vagus nerve, autonomic nervous system, immune system, and endocrine system by thinking about how he wanted them to react in a certain situation.
[16:00] The stress effects of cold water reactions on the body and mind.
[18:30] Talking about the Wim Hof breathing technique.
[21:00] Wim, Jordan, and Mikhaila all do the breathing technique together.
[27:00] The group discusses the experience of the ninety-second breath-hold. Spiking the Ph and the adrenal system.
[33:00] Effects of brain over body, Wim says scientific studies performed on him have led scientists to “Compelling evidence of the key components of the autonomous of the brain relating to mood regulation.”
[34:30] Discussion on the relationship between the breathing technique and cold therapy. Cold therapy is key to cardiovascular treatment. Take a cold shower (only cold side on) for at least thirty seconds and over ten days work towards two and a half minutes. This is another method to intentionally induce stress on the body to condition the mind on how to react in stressful situations.
[42:30] “Seek discomfort because discomfort becomes power.”
[45:00] How to fight and beat inflammation consciously.
[47:30] Wim explains the integration between the cold and breathing. He trains people with no previous experience and changes their paradigm about the cold and they see results that don't seem possible.
[51:30] Ancestry forms our DNA and our weaknesses.
[56:00] Wim talks about his training camp in Poland, kind of like a boot camp in the military, where he takes people and helps them reform their minds and bodies through the techniques he himself used to become stronger than anyone thought possible.
[59:00] Voluntarily facing stress awakens the strength to overcome those obstacles. Cold, fasting, heat stress, and especially the breathing technique are accessible ways to stress our bodies voluntarily to build our mind body connection.
[1:02:00] “Breathing is right at the border between the conscious and unconscious mind.”
[1:03:00] www.wimhofmethod.com provides more answers and the tools for anyone to start incorporating Wim’s amazing methods into daily life.
[1:08:00] Check out Wim’s book The Wim Hof Method to go into even greater detail.
