€1,490.00

Ice-cold Adventure (english)

Where: Przesieka (Poland)

When: 14th till 20th of August 2021 (Saturday - Friday)

Instructors: Douwe van den Berg & Josephine Worseck

Join us for a Wim Hof Method Adventure in the magical Polish nature; surrounded by forests, rivers, mountains, waterfalls, ice & snow...

ABOUT THE WEEK

This special WHM travel experience is somewhere in between an adventure trip, a retreat and a holiday with friends. Its a gift to yourself and a beautiful way of connecting with yourself, nature and others. Expect awesome people from all around the world - you will breath, move, play, icebath, meditate, relax together and challenge yourself. The aim is to learn, grow and to have fun :)

There will be 3 main pillars in this week: Wim Hof Method (with breathing, cold exposure and mindset), Movement and Nature Connection.

What will we do: - Breathwork: (WHM breathing and other breathing exercises)

- Movement: Movement games, mobility, movement challenges

- Cold exposure: The water is still cold enough to relax and get challenged😊

- Ways of increasing (body) awareness and (body) intuition

- Different ways of connecting to nature and training the senses

- Physical and mental challenges

- Hikes in nature 

- Have a good time with nice people, campfire, music and much more😊

Special about this WHM travel is that it takes place in the summer, which creates different possibilities than a wintetravel. The cold is not as extreme as in the winter (but the water is still cold😊). We will do most of the activities outside and have different kinds of challenges than in a winter travel.

THE INSTRUCTORS

About Douwe: This dutchmen had his first cold challenges in a kung fu school in China and became one of the first WHM instructors. Douwe is a senior WHM instructor (Level 3), breath coach and movement teacher. As WHM instructor he is teaching retreats internationally including ‘teaching the teachers’ for the WHM Academy. Douwe teaches people in a playful way to explore body and mind. An emphasis on breathing, safety, body awareness and body intuition.

About Josephine: In a former life Josephine was a molecular biologist. Her fascination about science and the human body brought her to the Wim Hof Method. Apart from being a WHM instructor (Level 2), she is a yoga teacher, naturopath and author of a book about the cold. She is internationally teaching workshops and retreats. While she focuses on the feeling in her teaching, there are few people who understand the science behind it as well as she does.

About me and my life

After completing my PhD in molecular biology (June 2012), it was clear to me that neither an academic career nor a career in the pharmaceutical industry would fulfill me. In order to find a new purpose and to recover from Burnout symptoms that arose due to the exhausting pressure during my PhD, I decided to take a break. I traveled South-East Asia for nearly a year. In northern Thailand I came into contact with meditation for the first time - in retrospect, I am sure that this was the first step in the right direction and towards a healthier future ...

After my return I worked for a biotechnology company in business development (February 2014- September 2017). During these years my desire for more freedom, for more space for development and personal growth grew steadily - but also my courage. I reduced my weekly working hours and completed my yoga teacher training. In April 2016 I founded my own company to teach the relaxation techniques that have helped me to deal better with work-related stress. 
It makes me happy to see how yoga, breathing techniques and meditation also helps my students deal better with stress.  When I realized how important this work is, I decided to start two further educations despite working part-time in biotech and being self-employed already. I wanted to learn more about stress reduction methods - and understand how they affect the body within. In early 2017 I started my training as a Wim Hof ​​trainer and my education to become a Naturopath. Before passing both exams in winter 2017, I did quit my biotech job completly! I did never regret that step!

 the Healing Power of the Cold

I wrote a book about the many benefits of cold exposure!! Currently it is only available in german.
My publisher "Riva" is looking for an interested english publishing group. 
​So if you are lucky there will be a translation soon ;) 

On Instagram, my Blog and Facebook I share my knowledge in english.
I am happy if you follow me on the social media platform of your choice ;)

Thank you,
Josephine​
