Duration: 1-2 hours
Description: This breath work class will provide you with a background of the scientific peer-reviewed scholarly journals that support the efficacy of the WHM Breathing Exercise. We will discuss the science supporting the breath work and dive deep into breath work protocols and practice the breath work as a group. This class is limited to 25 participants, which allows for intimate and personalized instruction from a certified instructor.
Who is this class for?
This class is for anyone looking to optimize their health and performance. Athletes, first responders, and others who find themselves in high pressure situations or who need to recover after strenuous activity will benefit the most. Wim Hof Method breath work has been scientifically proven to increase focus, improve sleep, decrease stress, strengthen the immune system and decrease inflammation; acute inflammation and chronic inflammation. Studies have shown the breath work has significant implications for certain auto-immune disorders as well as demonstrated effectiveness to combat stress. If you find yourself overly stressed and want to learn how to use your breath to calm down (or ramp up) your nervous system, this class is for you!
This groundbreaking method (specifically the breathwork) is the first time in history that science has found we have the ability to voluntarily influence the autonomic nervous system, thus influencing our innate immune response; fighting off viruses, infections and inflammation. The breath work is an acute stressor and provides health benefits to the brain and body much like other acute stressors such as exercise, fasting, heat exposure and cold exposure. The breath is powerful, and it’s your remote control to the autonomic nervous system. It quiets the mind, connects us to our emotions and has profound psychological and physiological effects. People report having more energy, better sleep and increased overall well-being, among others. Learn how to tap into the brainstem and control your nervous system more effectively!
What you get: Participants will learn how to flood their body with adrenaline and anti-inflammatory cell messaging proteins that strengthen their immune systems while connecting and learning with each other (scientifically backed with peer reviewed scholarly journals).
What to bring: Water bottle, yoga mat and an open mind.
