This is a nice article π Mostly about the more recent history of breathwork in the Western world. It brings perspective and shows how the Wim Hof method fits in and what vital role it has: Namely that of backing the beneficial effects of breathwork (and the cold) by modern material science.

Went down the Wim Hof rabbit hole. Lots of great stuff there and I still practice regularly. I would love to meet him someday and jump off the waterfall into the ice water #goals
That's fantastic ... may it come true!
Yeah, it'd be lovely to meet Wim one day. I'm going to Poland later this year and I'm curious whether I'll see & feel that icy waterfall π
I bought his book, The Wim Hof mΓ©thode, because I wanted to read more about cold baths, but was surprised that it actually focuses more on the breathing. I'm not disappointed though, it's fascinating!
Great! I didn't read that book yet π Yeah, the Wim Hof Method is a combination of breathing, cold and mindset ... all of equal importance. But the breathwork is very powerful right from the beginning. With the cold and mind together it unleashes its full power β‘ Fascinating indeed!
