About this episode

How does cold exposure and breathwork transform the body and mind?

The Wim Hof method has helped people all over the world harness the power of cold and breath to achieve the extraordinary. These methods have transformed lives by unlocking the body’s restorative ability to heal itself. While cold exposure and breathwork are beneficial for everyone, it holds unique physical and mental benefits for women.

No one is more familiar with this method than our guest today. Isabelle and Laura Hof are cofounders of the Ice Women community and are instructors of the Wim Hof method. They’re also the authors of the brand-new book, Secrets of the Icewomen: The Power of Cold and Breathwork to Balance Hormones, Bolster Health, and Unlock Inner Potential.

Between hormones, pregnancy, and monthly cycles, women can develop complicated imbalances that wreak havoc on their body and mind. Beyond the physical improvements of cold therapy and breathwork, it offers women the strength to shift their approach to physical and mental challenges. Listen in as Isabelle and Laura share their own empowering journey on educating and uplifting women so that they can thrive in a world that often imposes limitations.
