(upbeat orchestral music)
- You and I are here for a reason.
We all have an underlying
mission to do our best
and do good and leave
a legacy in this world.
And when you see reality in this way,
your life changes.
True, you have responsibility,
but you also have something
much more precious
that makes it all worth it.
You have purpose and meaning.
Hi, I'm Catalin Matei.
I'm the founder of Increase Media
and a couple of other projects.
And my mission is to empower
people to be the best version
of themselves and to reach
their full potential.
And my intention is that
through this material
and other materials that I'm producing,
I can bring out some new
insights and information
so that you can take your life and reach
your potential and go
to where you want to go.
Enjoy.
(drumbeat echoes)
(dramatic orchestral music)
There is a sacred connection
between body and mind.
(gentle music)
Together they hold a
secret to what is currently
perceived as superpowers.
And during the last decade,
more and more names have
come to the mainstream
showing that, what we have in the past
considered as mere exceptions, anomalies,
or even superpowers, are actually enabled
and innate in each and every one of us.
Scientific breakthroughs are happening
at an unprecedented rate
all around the world
raising human consciousness to a new level
of what is possible:
an empowered human being.
And the more we come to this understanding
of ourselves and the
universe, the more we realize
that we've barely touched the
surface of our own potential.
Which begs the question:
If this is possible,
what else could we do?
(upbeat orchestral music ends)
(pulsing music)
- [There is] unnecessary
suffering going on
and all these industries
keeping on and say, yeah, that's normal,
and I think that's sick.
- If it turns out that
non-ingestible approaches,
such as breath work or
cold exposure, can approach
some of the potency that
medications can provide
or have failed to provide,
then it's quite possible
that one can heal from the inside.
(gentle music)
- Guess what: We found
proof to tap into our body
and mind, enabling us to become
happy, strong, and healthy.
(thundering drumbeat)
(upbeat music)
- Is it possible that new
thoughts that lead to new choices,
that lead to new behaviors,
that create new experiences,
that lead to new emotions
and new feelings,
that could inspire new thoughts,
begin to change your biology?
Would you begin to see significant changes
in the brain as well as the body?
And our research proves
that when you change,
everything changes around you.
- Common people around the
world [are] doing the uncommon,
in a sense becoming supernatural.
(thundering drumbeat)
- You can actually change the past.
- You can learn, change,
and transfer overnight.
- So, there's a circuit for winning.
Similarly, there's a circuit for quitting.
There's an a norepinephrine
circuit in the brainstem.
(thundering drumbeat)
- With a greater sense of understanding
comes a greater sense of wonder
and a greater realization
that we are part of and not
apart from the rest of nature.
(thundering drumbeat)
- You are as equipped
as you possibly can be
to best fulfill your purpose in life.
(thundering drumbeat)
(gentle music)
- We are not victims of our circumstances.
You and I have been born
with the tools to create
our own reality and achieving
the so-called impossible.
One of the powerful voices of our times,
a person who has been
challenging the status quo
and doing that so-called
impossible is Wim Hof,
The Iceman.
A man who, over the years,
has been seen as an exception,
a circus guy who is there for you to watch
and be entertained, but not much else.
Well, not anymore.
Today, the name of Wim Hof
is linked to scientifically
proven methods that show
your capacity to take
direct control over your body and mind.
This includes auto-regulating
your neurochemistry
and basically taking charge of
your immediate body reaction.
Wim Hoff, like most of
us, hasn't had a life
free of hardship and trauma,
but has, rather, learned to transcend them
by deciding that he,
himself, is the only person
who can decide what he can or cannot do.
That's what made him a winner.
Nowadays, he's best known
for his breathing technique,
which gained massive
popularity all around the world
once he decided to put
himself in front of the line
and let scientists
research his body reaction
in front of disease and foreign pathogens,
having his technique as his sole defense.
(thundering drumbeat)
(gentle orchestral music)
- We researched Wim Hof himself
in this endotoxemia model
in which we intravenously
administer bacterial endotoxin,
lipopolysaccharide, it's also called.
And in Wim, himself, we
saw that he had virtually
no symptoms that normally
appear after people
get injected with these compounds.
And he also had remarkably
low levels of inflammatory
proteins in his blood.
Exceptionally high levels
of certain hormones
such as epinephrine.
So, then, we set out to prove
this in a group of subjects
that would be trained
by Wim and compare them
with a group that would
not be trained by Wim.
And therefore, we wrote a
grant to the Dutch proposal,
to the Dutch Rheumatology Society,
and they granted us the with
the money to do the trial,
the study, and in that
study we had twelve subjects
that were trained by Wim
Hof, partly in Poland,
partly in the Netherlands,
in the cold exposure,
the breathing technique
and the meditation.
And we had a control group
that was not trained.
And both of these groups, so
in total 24 healthy volunteers,
they were injected with
this endotoxin again.
You can say with a kind of certainty,
with statistical
certainty, that the effects
that you observe are real.
- You did that experiment.
What were the results and
what was, first of all,
your first reaction,
maybe, to the results?
Because now it's not just Wim,
it's a lot of other people.
And maybe, what are the
implications of the results?
- The most important results for us
were the inflammatory
proteins in the blood.
And what we saw was that the levels
of inflammatory mediators in the blood
with the trained subjects
were much lower than those
in the control group.
So that pointed towards,
that actually indicated
that the subjects that were trained by Wim
could actively and voluntarily suppress
their immune response to this
injection with endotoxin.
- And what does that mean?
- It means that systems that normally are,
that are really considered
to be autonomous,
so the autonomic nervous system--
because we also found very high levels
of epinephrine again, in
the blood of these trained
volunteers and not in the
blood of the control group.
So this implicates that,
what I said, systems
that are normally thought
to be completely autonomous,
namely the autonomic nervous system,
but also the immune system,
are influenceable through
relatively easy-to-learn techniques.
(drumbeat echoes)
- The reaction of Wim's
body changes the game.
Not just for autoimmune diseases based on
inflammatory responses,
but almost any disease
now known as inflammatory-based.
This discovery is prone
to affect deep hypothesis
in modern medicine.
And if you look closer,
Wim's deeper mission
is to lift the limitations
and preconceptions
we have set over our body and mind.
Wim doesn't want to be
perceived as special,
but as someone who has only discovered
what you and I can also
do, if we choose to.
(drumbeat thunders)
- Because I am in command
of my breath.
And with that, I become in
command over my alchemy.
And I'm able, then, to send
and to manipulate any part of my body.
(dramatic orchestral music)
- Breathing techniques and
meditation can not only regulate
your overall state,
creating good mental health,
but also stimulate the
autonomic nervous system,
changing the neurochemistry of your body.
Before Wim's experiment, the
notion that you can influence
the autonomic nervous system
was thought to be idiocy.
Because if you could control the system,
you could forget to breathe or
you'll make your heart stop.
But that is simply not the case.
Wim was able to demonstrate
that his techniques
can increase anti-inflammatory
mediators by 200%,
as well as decrease
inflammation about 50%.
Now that is something.
(gentle dramatic music)
- We have looked specifically
at autonomic nervous system
activity and immune response,
immune system activity,
and we saw that those were
significantly modulated
by these techniques.
So surprising because I'm a scientist,
so normally I don't believe
anything until it's proven.
So this is-- I was very surprised.
I gave it, like, maybe, 10%
chance that we could find,
get the findings that we
actually ended up with.
So when I got the results,
I was blown away, actually,
by them, I was really surprised.
(fast-tempo piano music)
- Long-term or chronic
inflammation is very damaging
for the body and can result in
life-threatening conditions.
In COVID-19, we had exactly that,
an overboard inflammatory response.
And even though COVID-19
became a controversial topic
about its severity, no one
denies that we will face
new and possibly more
dangerous respiratory diseases
that can cause future waves of pandemics.
It can happen this fall, next year,
or in the following years.
- It's an inflammatory
syndrome that's associated
with inflammation that is probably set up
by the COVID virus.
- So, ARDS is how the coronavirus kills.
It's not just the coronavirus,
but many other viruses,
including the influenza virus
that we have every year.
You get a viral infection.
The virus affects your lungs.
And with ARDS, the entire
lung becomes inflamed.
- Respiratory virus can
be spread by one person
and it can infect tens or
hundreds of people at one time.
- The ability to cross
the species barrier,
the ability to become
established in humans,
and then for one human
to pass it to another.
Those are the three features
you need in order to create
[an] epidemic or a pandemic.
- Novel emerging virus
infections like SARS corona
or MERS coronavirus,
that potentially could be
a huge problem in the future.
- But with new viruses, this is often
a completely new situation.
- Pandemics have always
been associated with panic.
(dramatic music)
If history teaches us anything,
it is that while pandemics
may start small, their
impacts can be as dramatic
as wars and natural disasters.
(drumbeat thunders)
- Our body knows the answer
about how to heal itself.
And we have the proof.
When times are showing
our vulnerabilities,
we have found a way to fight back.
(pulsing music)
- In the end, it is a document.
It is a document that is going to last.
That is good.
It is good about something new.
And yes, I've done this a thousand times.
All kinds of interviews or
podcasts, and even documentaries.
I made a lot already, but I'm growing.
I'm growing, always renewing.
And if you let me, then
I show you where I go
from where I have left off.
So all the past has been a foundation.
And from there, you see new, you see more.
And my vision is saying
what you have been saying,
the superhuman abilities of a person
is the new normal.
And I think so, too, because
I'm not a superhuman.
Too, I was in a series,
Superhumans, extraordinary people.
People who go beyond what
science thought is possible.
I was all that, and I am all that.
No, I am the new normal.
And just showing what
the body and mind is capable of
more than we thought possible.
And that is worth a documentary.
And that is worth to
show what I am talking.
Then in the documentary, you
could make it like graphically
show what is going on.
What is new?
What is different than
what we think is possible?
What is more than what
we think is possible?
And then show it graphically,
so people are able to understand
what they are capable--
really capable of.
It is like the first time somebody ran
the 100 meters within ten seconds.
Then in, like, hundreds of
years, nobody ran as fast.
But one year later, ten,
fifteen people could do it.
You see, it is the
change, it's in the mind.
If we bring something
new that is really based
on experience and science,
that there is no speculation,
then people can adopt the idea.
When they adopt the idea, then suddenly
they have a different
connection with their body
through their mind.
That is paradigm change.
And it always begins with
people like yourself.
This work you do is like being a podcast.
It's a window.
It's not only me and you talking.
It is 100 thousand, 200 thousand, million!
I don't know how many people,
but it will reach a lot of people.
And this is a document
that is going to stay.
And it's going to provide the
people with the possibility
to get to know new physiological laws.
New abilities awaiting the people
to comprehend by the idea.
And that's what we are
here all about today.
It is a complete new
podcast, new information.
And you better listen
up, because we love you.
- So Wim, to start off.
Looking out into the world right now,
I feel the world is upside down.
Instead of perceiving health,
happiness, and connection
as the norm, we perceive
being sick, unhappy,
and disconnected as the normal.
And even more so, we
blame this on the system.
We don't take personal
responsibility for this.
It feels to me that we've lost our powers.
We have lost the belief that
we can create our own reality.
And we can create and change.
Using our mind, we can change our bodies.
We can change and create our own reality.
We have lost our superpowers.
(gentle upbeat music)
- Civilized to death,
we are always civilized.
We use all kinds of extended
tools to comfort our lives.
But when it comes to an unseen enemy,
like a virus or bacteria,
we have no defense.
We have lost the connection within.
We are too dependent on
cars, on houses, on heat,
on cooling, on all kinds of things.
Our bodies do no longer really
are assimilated into the depth.
And what I am coming up with
is a possible reconnection
with the deeper physiology we all own.
But it is not awakened.
So, when a physiology
is not fully awakened,
then bacteria, virus, biological stress,
mental stress, emotional
stress, it all hits on a person.
And it has no adequate response.
I say, we have to not only wear masks
and social distancing,
that is not a real solution.
The real solution is within ourselves.
That is our inner nature, our inner power,
which is composed by the immune system,
the endocrine system, the hormonal system,
and the vascular system.
Those systems can be much
better within our control
than now is believed through science.
And that we have shown
through non-speculative,
scientific research to be
done just in a couple of days.
In a couple of days, we have shown
that the autonomic nervous system,
which was considered to be
not controllable by humans,
which is connected to
the deep control over,
possible control over the immune system
and the hormonal system.
It was considered to be
impossible by humans.
But we showed, in 2013,
in scientific comparative research,
people to be in control
of what was considered uncontrollable.
And now it is in the books.
We changed the books in the university.
Only, it has never been really adopted
or understood by the masses.
And now we need it.
We are overwhelmed now
by paranoia, by fear.
And we now, more than
ever, need more control
over our immune system.
And, that, we can provide.
Fear only comes when we have
lost a sense of control.
And that control we can provide
for every person in the world.
It is not the presidents,
it is not the kings
or the dictators who have control over us.
We have to become the president.
We have to become the king over ourselves.
And we have all the tools given
by Mother Nature to do so.
To make our lives happy,
strong, and healthy.
Happiness is control
over the hormonal system.
It's dopamine, serotonins, cannabinoids.
And we have shown in the
university to have control,
much deeper over the hormonal
processing in the body.
And through the mind.
Then, number two: health.
Health is the control
over the immune system.
We have shown how to deepen the control
over the immune system at will,
in university study.
So it's alternate, that's health.
Happiness, health, and then strength.
Strength is energy, the amount
of energy you can possess,
you can generate, and activate.
And we have shown how to get into the cell
and to create more energy,
more than you need.
We have all shown this,
but nobody knows about it.
And there we have the problem.
The problem is that in
society, the food industry
gives us crap, and the
pharmaceutical industry
is very pleased that we take crap.
Because we become sick, and
they make a lot of money.
That's economy.
It is money, money, money, money,
and it should be happiness,
strength, and health.
That is real wealth.
So, what I see today with
George [Floyd], who was killed
through police brutality,
that is a systemized oppression
of a racial difference.
A different people, or
could be poor people.
It is all part of a system
which has [desensitized]
themselves of the real core
values that are really wealth,
really richness, which is
happiness, strength, and health.
But it is not of the interest
of the people in power
to give natural, free ways
and understanding to the people
to become really wealthy
with possessing happiness,
strength, and health.
They are not interested and
they will keep on trying
to get in our minds that we need pills
and we need so much food,
and we need this system,
and we need war, and we
need to make more rockets,
and all that shit.
Well, the people
have no equal share of the energy,
which was symbolized by money.
Because money has been abused.
And there we are, that
is the real disease.
And now we have to stand up.
We can show the COVID-19, it
will become COVID-20, 21, 23.
And the pharmaceuticals is
going to take the fruits
because everybody needs to be vaccinated.
They will keep on promoting it.
They are everywhere.
They are in the government,
lobbying all over the place.
They took over, and it is
time that people become
clear and awaken within
themselves, individually.
All through these podcasts we bring it out
that we have a control far deeper within,
which enables us with a
guarantee to bring happiness,
strength, and health to our lives.
Not the way we are schooled,
but it should be in the schools now
that we not only learn
mathematics, history, and language,
but we are going to learn about happiness,
strength, and health.
And let this be a document,
because we have shown
that through the science, that
it is there, that it is time.
That we are able to embrace the future,
releasing us from the chains of the past.
We can change and we
can change for the good.
Wherein we find a world without war,
a world without overexploitation.
A world without sodomizing the planet.
A world where we have respect,
live in harmony with nature,
live in harmony with ourselves
in love and understanding.
This time it's not philosophy,
this time it's not flower
power, it is based on research.
And we need to bring this
out because the walls
of the pharmaceuticals, the food industry,
the wall lobbies, I know they are there.
They are the real invisible enemy,
not the parasite, the COVID-19,
that one is invisible.
But the real disease is our
system, and we have to change.
We have to make the people strong again,
strong, happy, and healthy.
Not just strong, "Look how
much nuclear power I got." No.
Strong like Mother Nature,
happy like Mother Nature
gave us all the tools to become
happy, strong, and healthy.
And there we are.
- So, if change can only
come by people taking
their powers back and start
creating their life again,
what do you see or feel is
currently the biggest roadblock
that, if unlocked in their own person--
in everybody's personal
control that they can do,
what is one thing that you
sense is still keeping people--
or the biggest roadblock
that's keeping them away
to getting back control of their life
and health, wellness, and happiness?
- You know, it is the
psychology of people.
The psychology in people is,
they play the victim role
because they have no
alternative to become really
good and strong and happy.
Too many people have been
promising all kinds of things.
And it didn't work.
And that too-low dose of
happiness or strength,
it's all too much money-based,
too much money-oriented.
It needs to be sincere;
it needs to be a real.
It is like the flame
of the people's beliefs
have been extinguished through
time of too many promises.
And that, we have to rekindle.
We have to reawaken that flame.
Because in the end,
when people become strong
within themselves again,
with hope they become
stronger than anything.
So we have to make that happen.
First of all, if we do the techniques
which has shown in the
science to make people
able to control inflammation.
Inflammation is cause
and effect of disease.
Any disease, cause and effect of disease.
So if they learn how
to tackle inflammation
through regular practice,
through techniques that work
and have shown themselves in science,
they should take it up.
That's inflammation.
And then we got mood.
Mood is emotion.
How to regulate your mood.
Do we have the ability
to regulate our mood?
This is what I've been
showing lately in brain scans
with psychiatrists, with professors.
I tell everybody, listen,
you have [an] innate capacity
to regulate your own mood.
You have the power to make
your mood the way you want.
And what is the way you want?
You want to feel good, but
you don't know how to do it.
So then you have to
look at the translation,
how it works, with, say, the hormones.
When you've got dopamine,
you feel, wow, nice.
But when you got a lack of
dopamine, you feel depressed.
And as simple as it is,
depression is on the rise in the world.
And we don't know how to handle it.
We can shoot people to the moon.
We cannot handle our own mood.
This should be on the agenda
because it is an innate capacity of ours
to control our mood.
That is natural behavior.
Now I have been showing this in science.
So that's number two.
If people are able to battle
inflammation, that is disease.
That is number one, that's a big thing.
And now we can show,
we showed how to suppress
inflammatory markers.
That is one.
Two is how to get to the
key components to control
or regulate our emotion, our mood.
Is it there?
We have shown this.
So this is first.
I say, first, to the person,
"Hey man, do you want to feel good
"and be in charge of yourself
"and prevent yourself from disease?
"Here it is, here you got the tools."
That's where you begin.
And I think if you give people a control
over their own health,
then that is a big step,
because we look at the individual.
But all the individuals
together is amazing.
So if you give them the
sense, not only a hope,
but [an] absolute sense of
control over their own health,
then it's up to us to
bring it to the people.
Let it all come together, it comes back.
Hey, this shit works, man.
Shit works, wow.
I'm here, I got a better
control of myself.
I got a lot more energy,
I can control my mood.
It all comes, that's what we do here.
I see the roadblocks
of too many promises done in the past.
That's why I went through science,
to have no speculation.
I am not selling anything.
I am the soul.
And the soul has the right to
be happy, strong, and healthy.
It is the light itself.
You are the soul.
We are all the soul.
Without the soul, we are nothing.
That is the life's force.
The force of the light of the life.
That is who we are.
And the force of the light,
when it is strong, it is happy,
it is healthy, it is strong,
and it passes it on to our children.
Instead of, "Have five cars,
"six cars, you become more happy."
No, no, no, it doesn't work.
If you shoot people to the moon, no,
I want to live on the Earth,
nicely here and explore here.
This is a much nicer place
than the Earth-- or Mars.
Man, it's poisonous there and
they go all the way up there.
It's crazy.
We have to learn to guarantee
happiness, strength,
and health, right over here.
And I see no roadblocks.
I see we do what we can do, Catalin.
We do what we can do that is for now,
because the result of the
past is still present.
That's why there is now confusion,
but it is also the time of change.
People had enough,
Enough means they can come
and make the change now.
They want to not follow the past paradigm.
It's going to be a new paradigm.
And a new paradigm, I look in your heart.
I see a good man.
I look in everybody's
heart, I see a good human.
Nobody, if he has the control
over himself, is a bad person.
It's only because they
did not find happiness,
strength, and health, they got frustrated.
They're confused and begin to do things
completely against the
soul's laws, which is love.
We are group animals, we are mammals.
We are group beings and consciously
we are able to make the change.
And now we have shown in science
how to do that in our
brain and in our body.
So the roadblocks, that's the past.
We will stand up upon the
past, say thank you past,
but we have to go on.
We have to make changes.
We want to be happy, strong, and healthy,
in harmony with nature.
That is the future for my kids.
That is my future and I am in charge.
So I do what I can do and that's enough.
And I'll keep on doing it.
- So, that's beautiful Wim,
thank you for sharing that.
The beautiful thing that I find,
it's a good timing for
this type of message
is until, let's say, only
a couple of months ago,
the world was in a perceived equilibrium.
People were going and
following the status quo,
going to their job, making their money,
having their kids, having
their cars and family.
And now if you look outside the window,
there's George Floyd, there's
riots, there's pandemics,
there's economic collapse
happening all at the same time.
And people have all these
confusion, fear, worry,
all these feelings coming in
and at the same time to them.
And even though it is
unpleasant, at the same time,
historically, we know that change happens
in times of crisis.
So what would you say to people?
Because this is exactly what
you've briefly mentioned
in the last sentences you've made.
What would you say to people?
How can they use this
opportunity to transform,
transcend the status quo
and make their own path,
find their own life and create,
find their own individual being
and develop and contribute to the world?
The same, you're doing the
same, a lot of people are doing.
But people are now stuck in sheep mode
and stuck in the status quo.
So what would you say
to people to take charge
of this and take advantage
of the opportunity?
- Yes, very good Catalin,
I like your explanation.
Your speech is also connected
to your passion, to the heart.
It's very nice, it's
intelligence, it's natural wisdom.
And that should everybody be doing.
Everybody should awaken that he or she
is a unique individual,
a unique human being,
coming from the heart.
And from the heart, you want to be good.
From the heart, you are connected.
From the heart, you will be
able to maintain happiness,
strength, and health all the time.
Because we are no longer
going to suffocate
the way from the heart to the brain,
by regulations, by systemizing it all.
By sodomizing the planet,
by becoming insensitive
to what happens in the third
world, to kill the wildlife,
to destroy nature around
us, and just keep on going.
As long as our little garden is okay,
then the rest, I don't give a shit.
That mentality is going
to go because now we see
that this shit has hit the fan,
this system does work no more, no longer.
The future is awaiting.
The future looks much, much brighter.
It takes the awakening of
people to their own power.
Believe, see, feel your own power
the way nature meant it to be.
Because that is what we share
with every person in the world.
We are living the humanity on this planet.
There is no borderline.
We created the borderlines like lines.
That we are patriarchs, when
we kill a hundred people
on the other side, then we are heroes.
And then the hero from
the other side comes
and he's going to mess up on this side,
a hundred people, then he's a hero.
Murderers become heroes.
And this is what is happening
with these stupid lines.
Well, everybody is a lovable creature.
We have to change the paradigm,
live in harmony with
each other and in harmony
with nature around us.
It's providing us.
We, as humanity, we are
insignificant, let me tell you.
If we keep on going the way we do,
we destroy our future.
The future of humanity,
the love for our children.
We make it inhospitable for our
children to live in a world,
polluted, exploited, sodomized,
becoming insensitive.
And we leave it because we
only look to our egotism.
That egotism needs to stop.
We need to live from the
heart and it is very easy
and very beneficial for
every person to come
and live from the heart
because there's your happiness.
You can feel it.
There's your strength, you can feel it.
And there is your health, you can feel it.
And why not take that?
It's now there, and it has
been shown through science
that we have a much
greater possible control
over happiness, strength, and health.
And with that, they asked me,
"Wim, what is enlightenment?
"And, please, can you to
tell it in one sentence?"
I say, ah okay, here it comes:
just be happy, strong, and healthy.
And the rest is bullshit.
But they had been feeding us with bullshit
and we think it is normal.
We think that we got to swallow it.
This is the way we got to live.
And now you see there is a big mess.
It's time for people to become
happy, strong, and healthy.
The rest is bullshit.
It's time that we leave
the bullshit backwards.
It's okay to fertilize the land,
but it's not okay to swallow bullshit
and live with that all the time.
It's a way of speech,
but what the solution
to the nowadays problem
and the way people can
take this is, hey man,
what I give you is evidence-based.
It's scientifically
evidence-based and it shows
that a much bigger control
over your own happiness,
strength, and health is awaiting.
And that harmony with nature is logical
because you are part of nature.
What the tree expels is what we need.
That is oxygen.
What we expel is what the tree needs.
We are one with nature.
And that is a simple fact.
And when that comes, then this place,
then the world is really a paradise.
And compared to the
moon and Mars and Venus,
it is the best place in the universe.
That is our future, and it is awaiting.
So no worries to nobody,
just live up to your own happiness,
your own strength, and your own health.
And don't have it influenced
negatively by any shit,
regulation, rule, paradigm,
whatever they say.
In the end, we are humans
and we should serve our soul
with happiness, strength, and health.
- Thank you Wim, one last
message and we'll finish.
I feel in your message, of
course there's the physiological
aspect and the method and
the breathing and the cold
and the heat and all of these things.
But what I feel is the deeper message...
And your experiments and
everything that you've done
in your Kilimanjaro and all
the things you went and done.
You're basically showcasing
and encouraging and inspiring
people to look beyond the
limitation that have been put
by society or by us to
ourselves, and look beyond that.
So I will ask you this to end this:
What is a message that you
would like to leave people with
that you feel, maybe,
you haven't got to share,
of what is possible?
Because if what you've done is possible
and it has been perceived
as being impossible
before you've done it, what else is there?
- Well, yes.
Let me prelude the last message.
The last time I climbed
the Kilimanjaro in shorts,
I was climbing it with a
person who was suffering
from [Lyme] disease.
He had no experience in
climbing mountains whatsoever,
and he was 76 years old.
And he climbed Kilimanjaro in his shorts.
From the tropics to the arctic zone,
which is really cold and
less than half the oxygen
is over there.
76 years old, never been in the mountains.
Then he came with me,
suffering from [Lyme] disease.
He did it in thirty hours.
What normally is being
done in five to nine days,
fully dressed because it is too cold,
according to the physiologists
and the mountaineering clubs and all that.
He did it in thirty hours in shorts,
having [Lyme] disease, being 76 years old.
There is no end, if you put your spirits
to your happiness, to your strength,
to your health, to the love
of life for you, yourself,
and for your children,
there is really no limit.
The love is like the
unlimited power of the mind.
Last thing, when you are
in love with somebody,
you don't ask yourself,
"Hey, what is love?
"Is love good? Yes or no?
"And what can I do with love?"
No, you just want to go
to where the love is waiting for you.
You want to become one with the love.
And that love is the life.
Become one with the life.
It has all the happiness,
strength, and health,
far more than we thought
possible by science.
Far more than has been set
through all the systems,
governments, et cetera,
and all the schooling.
It is time that we
guarantee very confidently
to our children and to ourselves,
that we are beings of love,
composed by happiness,
strength, and health
completely within our control.

- Our world is changing.
Getting ready to exceed
our current mind and body
limitations can be the way
to defeat future lockdowns and alienation
in a world where shutdowns and disruption
have become a norm.
If you do something and
it does not give you
the outcome you want,
you have two choices.
One is to think about what you did wrong
and what can you do to improve.
This implies that you believe
you are in control of your life.
And although doing this as
painful in the short-term,
in the medium- and long-term,
it always proves very
rewarding and meaningful.
The second one is to think
that the whole game is rigged,
that you are a victim.
That you are reactive
and you have no control
over your reality.
Therefore, you do the
least necessary to get by.
Or even worse, you take
revenge on reality.
It seems that the reasonable truth
is that we do have
control over our reality.
Of course the only way to really know
is to do it and observe which
one makes you feel aligned,
true, strong, and allows
you to lead a meaningful
and happy life.
The transition from power to powerlessness
and vice versa, always happens
in small, incremental steps.
Each and every decision
we make every single day,
every single minute, tilts
the world a tiny bit more
towards one or the other.
Or, metaphorically speaking,
it turns the world a bit
more towards heaven or hell.
You are equipped with everything you need,
and doing Wim's techniques
is a good starting point
in that journey, so that you
can reach your full potential
and become a beam of
light for others as well.
Just imagine, if all of us would do that,
how would the world look like?
And remember, once aware and on the path,
your superhuman powers will be integrated
into your experience
and all will soon become
the new normal.
