Summary
If given the opportunity, would you climb Mt. Kilamanjaro in nothing but your shorts and sneakers? Would you trust a stuntman-turned-breathing guru with you life? On this week's Yoga Talk Show, you'll meet a guy who did just thatāand survived to write a book about it. The guy is Scott Carney, and his teacher is former YTS guest, Wim Hof. This is a wild and somewhat reckless tale, but it'll inspire you to push the limits of your own comfort zone, your imagined physical limitations, and perhaps live a more inspired life.
------------
Listen & Learn:
- How Wim Hof breathing is very similar to the drug, Diamox, used by high altitude climbers to speed up respirationĀ
- Why we've become too comfortable, too spoiled, and too numb to the world around us
- How cold exposure and controlled hyperventilation (used intelligently) can be a powerful part of a healing regimeĀ
- How our guest managed to summit Kilamanjaro in nothing but sneakers and a pair of shorts
