...And here it is!! ladies and gentlemen.....the highly awaited Wim Hof Method is Now in the POIS forum!!! (clapping) (more clapping) (one more clap)
Finally, the WHM discussion has been created, even if there is already a Reddit group for it. But we have a bigger drive! we’re the POIs peeps; hence we have so much to gain from promising methods like this one. And pois is the reason i sticked to the WHM every morning,
my POIS is what the WHM has reduced to two days, and POIS is what gives me hope to continue the WHM and get into the healing process (which might take around three years, that’s my bet). I think we can support each other on our journey through the WHM.
One month ago, I decided to get started with the Wim Hof program. And so far I’ve managed to reduce POIS to one or two days, and I am only at week 3 of the program! (see my post on the WHM).
Wim Hof Method has
healed many rare illnesses already. There is a book (What doesn’t kill us) that compilates different persons who have been exposed to extreme conditions, and from this exposure they have created a ”superpower. This is explained on the basis that what doesn’t kill you, makes your body to auto-heal itself. (I haven’t read it yet, but my friend told me about it). And this is what the WHM is based on; however, the good thing is that with the WHm you don’t have to go into extreme conditions and see if you survive—there is a method to it! Yaaay!
However, the method requires constant practice. But it comes with BIG benefits: 1) It gives you Huge energy to start the day—you won’t believe it until you try it (and make sure you do the breathing right) (there are also plenty of testimonials around the internet, just make sure that those ppl have followed the program, bcs it is not the same to do the Wim Hof breathwork than to follow his 10-week program!! not at all); 2)
Has reduced my POIS to two days; 3)Increases your testosterone, or stamina (or however this is called)
So far, I have practised the WHM at least 5 days a week—because it is such a gift to get all that energy! And with the hope that I will reduce my pois even more
*Not only my POIS completely disappears after two days, but also the POIS I get on day one is much milder, and on day 2, it is very mild.
Now,
the problem with WHM is that the energy and stamina that you get from it come at a price, within 7 days of having had your last orgasm, you won’t be able to resist any longer. I know that through meditation, stamina/sexual energy can be circulated around the body, instead of being concentrated around your penis. But I am really not in such a meditative stage yet. Any ideas on how to get there? (I bet I’ll get a lot of joke answers with this Q
(we spiritually/feel/sensitivity dead western culture peeps—I am exaggerating a bit (only))
*In answer to this problem, I opened a topic called “Orgasm without ejaculation?”

Also, the WHM is specially indicated for boosting your immune system. However, although it boosts your immune system, it might take a month until you boost it enough. And with the current COVID crisis, I do not recommend that you stay cold or take cold showers if you feel uncomfortable with them, as when you are cold, your vulnerability increases (I’ve been following a discussion on Reddit about this). The pitty is that the cold shower is one of the three pillars of the method, and it is what gives you the biggest rush of energy. And yes, you get to actually enjoy the “cold” water—at some point, it starts to feel purifying.

Also, WHM is not limited to getting more energy, but it also has
curative properties which are derived from exposure to extreme conditions which make your body to auto-cure itself. Many people have been cured of rare illnesses through the WHM.
I have already improved my digestion so much (I pop every one or two days max, when before my digestion hurt and I went to the toilet every 7 or more days). But I haven’t gotten to the ice baths yet, so I am yet to experience the biggest curative part. The book “what doesn’t kill us” it explains how these different people who have been exposed to extreme conditions, have acquired “superpowers”.
However, I do know that most likely its ultimate curative properties won’t arrive instantly,
it will be a process. To better understand this, it would be useful to look at some of the testimonials from people who have been healed following the WHM.
*I am happy to share the first version of WHM program, which I don’t think it should be too different from the modern one—aside from an improved English-speaking Wim.
Let’s get going! Ánimo!
THIS METHOD IS EXTREME
CONSULT WITH A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL BEFORE PROCEEDING !!!Update 28/09/2020
I’ve just seen that there was already another thread on Wim Hof Method but it had the name “the ice man”
https://poiscenter.com/forums/index.php?topic=2722.msg24222#msg24222However, as I say, the breathing techique is not the same as the WhM programme, which sets your body at a whole new level. Nonetheless, I still haven’t finished the programme. Hence why I cannot give any final answers. And I’ve also been reading more about primal psychology, and how pois might be psychosomatic.
