"The IceMan" - Wim Hof

We are so excited to share with you this fantastic conversation with Founder Glenn Marsden about Wim Hof breathing, mental wellness, what is going on right now in the world and our connection to nature, to soul and to God.

Dutch extreme athlete Wim Hof got his nickname 'The Iceman' by breaking a number of records related to cold exposure including: climbing Mount Kilimanjaro in shorts, running a half marathon above the Arctic Circle barefoot, and standing in a container while covered with ice cubes for more than 112 minutes.

Using 'cold, hard nature' as his teacher, his extensive training has enabled him to learn to control his breathing, heart rate, and blood circulation and to withstand extreme temperatures.

Armed with his motto 'what I am capable of, everybody can learn', Wim Hof is convinced that everyone can tap into their inner potential without having to invest the same decades worth of study, travel and daring.

Wim has made it his mission to share what he’s learned with the rest of the world. And so he developed the Wim Hof Method: a combination of breathing, cold therapy and commitment that offers a range of benefits.

With his Wim Hof Method, he teaches people from all over the world, from celebrities and professional athletes, to people of all ages, to control their body & mind and achieve extraordinary things.

“He has not only helped advance scientific understanding, but also accomplished extraordinary feats of human endurance, including 21 Guinness World Records.

Wim Hof gets behind the Imperfectly Perfect Campaign's Global Efforts.

“There comes a moment that through your belief, you arrive. It’s like you leave the car, you don’t stay in the car. I’ve used my vehicle to get where I need to go. The realisation of my soul. That’s my home and it’s living in my heart, and it is in love and I spread it like a virus. Jesus Christ was 2000 years ago, he’s right here, right now. That’s what i’m saying. It’s you. God is within you. The light is within you.’ - @iceman_hof

A huge honour and privilege to have Wim Hof get behind our Global Efforts in challenging the narrative around Mental Health and sharing his story.

'Being Imperfectly Perfect' with Rachel Hurdwood

‘Being Imperfectly Perfect to me is about trying your best even if things aren’t great, even if you have a bad day. For now, at the moment for me, it makes me think of parenting. I was an amazing parent before I had kids and I knew everything to do in every situation and now I have kids of my own and I fall into every single trap. I read something about people and a really beneficial thing to do if something goes wrong, rather than dwelling in it, you take stock of what you’ve done and learn from it. I’ve been really trying to do that in recent months. You know in case something didn’t go how I wanted it to. What can I do differently next time and then move on from it’ - @rachel.hurdwood

Post Tour Depression is Real with Benny Clark

We hear about his proud roots and strength of the Aboriginal community in the political sense and history of what it gives Benny in the way of having fought for so long for so many rights - that it gives him a purpose knowing he is here for a reason and through his work, knows there is a bigger picture.

Although, while in Wales, another difficult period ensued, with Kenji battling a gambling addiction.

Fortunately, Kenji overcame the addiction and he’s now happier than ever, enjoying his football for Nacional in Portugal and playing for the their national team. He is more than just a footballer He is using his experiences of dealing with setbacks to help other footballers fine tune their own mentality.

Professional Footballer Kenji Gorre gets behind the Imperfectly Perfect Campaign's Global Efforts.

‘Being Imperfectly Perfect means that you have got to be you. The thing is, every single one of us are made exactly how we are made and no one is the same. So all these millions, zillions, gazillions of people that have been on earth. Nobody has been you. So you are you. That’s powerful! What society makes you do, what the world makes you do is, we all have to be the same. We all have to dress the same, we all have to talk the same, we all have to be the same, do. Everything the same, when actually the power is being you. That’s where the power lies. You always have to be imperfect because we are all not perfect’ @kenjigorre
