Are you ready for a life-changing experience?
Spend five days embedded, away from distraction, exploring the limits of your body through the power of your mind.
The theme:
How to Master Life's Storms
- cultivating unshakable calm in the wild
We will be training for the uncertainties of life.
Let’s be honest…
One day you will receive a phone call. You will hear the news you most fear hearing. You might lose your income. Lose your savings. Lose someone you love.
Something tragic will happen.
One thing we can count on with 100% certainty is that at some point, usually when we least expect it, the rug will be pulled from under our feet, and our world will come crashing down.
And this will happen more often, and more times, than we would like to admit. It’s not a matter of if, but of when.
During this trip, you will be taken through carefully crafted experiences that will prepare you for anything life throws at you.
You will learn:
💪 How to cultivate psychological and emotional robustness
🧠 Psychological tools that will make you bounce back quickly from ANYTHING
👨✈️ How to influence your mind and nervous system, & take control of how you feel
🧘♀️The secrets to finding true, lasting peace within - even in the midst of chaos and pain
🦸♀️ How to tap into the infinite resources of energy & courage within yourself
😃 How to find tranquility of mind that is totally unlinked to external circumstances
"The most profound experience of my life. "
- Lisa Stewart (2023 Winter travel)
This extended immersion allows for in-depth training in a gorgeous natural environment. You rely on each other for the moments where you have to dig deep, and the lasting friendships are often touted as the most rewarding aspect of these trips.
Many who join are looking for new ways to push through their perceived physical or psychological limits. Some use it as an inward journey to process hardship or trauma. Others still are just always searching for the next novel experience to enrich their lives.
As a result, you are bound to hear the most incredible stories from the most amazing people, hailing from all over the world!
An extra twist: Digital Detox
NOTE--> This is not an ordinary WHM Travel. It is much more.
In order to maximise your experience, we are making it a digital detox. This means participants will not be using their phones/laptops/tablets during our time there.
If the thought of doing this worries you, you REALLY need to do it! Trust us, you the impact of the time away will so much more profound.
Provisions will be made to deal with important matters or emergencies. And we will have a photographer with us to register the magic.
What's the program?
In traditional Wim Hof fashion, we embrace the 'no program program' philosophy!
A lot will happen there, and one of the themes of the trip is to always be ready for anything. So we like to keep things open and somewhat mysterious.
Having said that, you can certainly expect:
✅ To learn new, advanced, breathing and mindset techniques that will blow your mind.
✅ To have a profound experience that will reveal how powerful you actually are.
✅ Hikes, swims, climbs, and monkeying around!
✅ To make meaningful connections with people all over the world who share your values and interests.
✅ You'll learn how to manipulate your physiology so you are in the driver's seat rather than a passenger.
✅ Everything you learn will be transferred into your day-to-day life, and you will feel the impact.
Where are we escaping to?
We will be staying in Przesieka, right near Wim's house! This is where most documentaries about him were made. It's where that famous waterfall is!
We're booked into the lovely Hotel Olympia. This is a location that very much exists because of, and around, Wim Hof and these expeditions. The owners and staff know us well, and are totally used to our rather unusual style (eg. people walking in and out half naked in the depths of winter 😂)!
It ticks all the boxes:
✅ The food is delicious and healthy
✅ The surroundings are breathtakingly beautiful
✅ There's a river on the doorstep
✅ The rooms are very spacious & beds are comfy
✅ Plenty of space to roam and chill
✅ Sauna & jacuzzi
If you're familiar with Wim Hof's story, you'll recognise this spectacular place. Przesieka is a small village on the foot of the great mountain Sněžka. This will be a raw, and truly authentic, experience - but with some lovely touches of luxury!

Who is Wim Hof?Also known as "The Iceman," Wim Hof is a Dutch super-athlete known for his ability to withstand extreme elements - especially extreme cold temperatures. He has set numerous world records for endurance and exposure to cold, including climbing Mount Everest in shorts, running a marathon in the Arctic Circle barefoot, and immersing himself in ice water for record periods - without dropping his body temperature.
-
What is the Wim Hof Method?The method he developed, the Wim Hof Method, combines cold exposure, breathing techniques, and meditation, and has been proven to improve physical and mental well-being, increase resilience to stress, decrease inflammation, and enhance immune function. Hof has gained widespread attention and has been the subject of documentaries and scientific studies exploring the potential benefits of his techniques.

Is it safe?It is very safe. In almost all instances, you won’t be at any more risk than if you were going to a yoga class. You will be in full control over how much you participate in each activity, and you won’t be asked to do anything that you don't feel prepared for. There are only a few medical conditions that may require special attention, and you’ll be asked to fill out a form beforehand where you will be able to let us know so we can prepare if needed. See next question...

What if I have a medical condition?In almost all cases, you will be able to attend the retreat despite any medical conditions. However, some of the activities may need to be adapted for you, or in some instances, you may not be able to participate in some of the activities. You will be required to fill out a form before the event where you can let us know if any of the following applies to you: You are epileptic You are pregnant You suffer from any heart conditions Have Type II Raynaud’s Syndrome Have a history of serious mental health issues Any medical conditions you think we should know about If you have any questions, please get in touch and we’ll be happy to help. We can chat about your situation and decide together whether you should join in on the day.

I’m curious, but I hate the cold! What should I do?Honestly, just come! So many people have this concern, and then realise they never had to worry in the first place. The experience is not all about getting cold. The ice bath is only a small part of the day, and everything we do is totally optional anyway. What you will learn will have a major positive impact on your life, and you’ll be able to use those principles and techniques to improve many aspects of your physical and mental well-being and health. And who knows, it may also change the way you feel about the cold 😉
