I have been fascinated with Wim and his super human like capability and reputation as the iceman. In this book Wim looks to show that he is just an ordinary person who has just tapped into the body and mind's amazing potential and he provides a 3 part framework for this that anyone can use to also get similar results as he has.
Wim starts with a stories from his childhood and gives an account of his first couple of exposures to cold which almost killed him and completely changed his relationship with the cold.
The book then covers techniques to harness the 3 elements - Cold, Breathing and Mindset. Wim explains his breathing and meditation techniques. The book also has examples of how people have have healed themselves through very challenging health ailments by using the Wim Hof Method.
As an instructional manual, it is not great. Whilst there are useful instructions, some of it is in various places and things like breathing techniques are probably best seen from a video. Ideally someone should use the book and use maybe something like his free mini course, the Wim Hof App and other YouTube videos. The book makes reference to his courses as well which cover his methods in great detail and I know people who have taken those and highly recommend them.
For me, the book really triggered the inspiration and focus to explore and try out some of the techniques. As I write this review, we are in Autumn in the UK with Winter not too far, things like cold exposure are something is not very appealing. However, the book does make it compelling for me to then think about actively incorporating elements of this. Cold exposure is something that the likes of Ben Greenfield and Dave Asprey also actively evangelise so I think it makes sense to do this and there is lots of science to support this.
If you are looking to take your health and mindset to the next level then this is a useful book to explore to inspire and get you to try out the Wim Hof method. Combine it with the other resources Wim provides to help take on this way of thinking and practices to help have better control over the body and mind.

This method will change your life!
By Alex Haines on 23 October 2020
I bought this book after spending the last 6 months practising the Wim Hoff method, both breathing and cold showers. It has changed my life to say the least. After suffering a mental breakdown in Feb this year due to psychological stress, this method helped me overcome the illness by reducing the inflammation in the brain. I truly believe in Wim Hoff and the book is honestly such a fantastic read. I’ll go forward and tell everyone about this incredible man! Thank you, Wim!
