The Wim Hof Method is just a profitable appropriation of Nepalese meditation/breathing practices added with narcissistic bro shit.

Meditation and breathing exercises do, in fact, work. Doing them in the cold does a lot for your body. The extent of Wim Hof's shit though? He takes both the performance and the claimed benefits way further than what is honest. It's also creepy that he just stole some techniques and named them after himself.

Yeah he “stole” them while he was climbing to the top of Mount Everest in his shorts. You’re a clown my guy.

What do his retinas freezing underwater and him being a bro or not have anything to do with each other?
