Wim Hof Retreat Iceland - Glacier Nature

What if there was a way to tap into our inner abilities, our forgotten inner knowledge, and regain conscious control, not only over the deeper parts of the brain but to all systems? Away from the suppression of feelings/emotions, therefore living with less stress, more vitality and joy.

The Wim Hof Method is built on three pillars, which are breathing, cold therapy and commitment. Combined, these three pillars form a powerful method that is capable of changing your life.

Proper exposure to the cold starts a cascade of health benefits. The breathing technique brings back the awareness of the tremendous potential for more energy, reduced stress levels, and an augmented immune response. And the third pillar of the Wim Hof method is the foundation of the other two: both require patience and dedication in order to be fully mastered. Armed with focus and determination you are ready to explore and eventually master your own body and mind.

This particular area in the south of Iceland offers a unique experience like no other. A location to disconnect from everything and tap into your innate abilities, while being surrounded by the most remarkable glacier nature in Iceland; with glacier lagoons, ice caves, tall waterfalls, the biggest glacier in Europe, Vatnajökull, the diamond beach, captivating national parks and pristine nature, where every corner becomes an astonishing sight. Including the possible arrival of the northern lights!
