Wim Hof
Holder of 26 World Records, Subject of landmark Radboud University autonomic nervous system study
Wim Hof, known as 'The Iceman', demonstrated through university laboratory trials that humans can consciously influence the autonomic nervous system and innate immune response via cyclic hyperventilation, breath retention, and deliberate cold exposure.
Breathe. Cold is a warm friend that resets your vascular tone and teaches voluntary control over stress.
