Welcome to a guided breathing session.
0:00 INTRO
0:10 ROUND 1 - 1:30min Breath Hold
3:53 ROUND 2 - 2:00min Breath Hold
8:07 ROUND 3 - 2:30min Breath Hold
12:50 ROUND 4 - 3:00min Breath Hold
Try to relax by sitting down or lying down before you start.
It is best to start with a warm-up round of just conscious breathing. Simply relax and breathe in through your nose into your belly then into the chest into the head, then let it all go out of the mouth. Think about how you breathe and focus your attention on the breath only.
After the warm-up you can proceed with the first round. I suggest you start with a slower pace with shallow breaths and work your way up. The last round should be your maximum breathing speed and maximum depth of the breath.
But be careful not to force anything. If you experience any discomfort, just take it easier.
Remember, the goal of doing this is to make you feel good :)
The Wim Hof Breathing technique in general is meant for everyone who would like to improve the way they feel. Performed correctly and daily, this breathing exercise tends to strengthen the immune system and relieve symptoms of stress in the individual.
Step by step instructions:
1. Breathe in through the nose or mouth. Inhale deeply into your belly, then into your chest, and finally into your head. One complete circular motion. Then exhale. Just let the air out naturally and do not force the air out. Repeat this until the round is over (30-50 breaths)
2. On the last exhale of each breathing round, hold your breath for the duration shown on the timer.
3. After the breath hold, inhale fully and hold your breath for 15 seconds. Then let the air out of your lungs again and start again from the beginning.
4. Repeat each round :) )
Safety information:
The breathing exercise has a profound effect and should be practiced in the way it is explained. Always do the breathing exercise in a safe environment (e.g. sitting on a couch/floor) and unforced. Never practice the exercises before or during diving, driving, swimming, taking a bath or in any other environment/place where, should you pass out, a serious injury could occur.

I might sound crazy, but after almost 300 days of the Wim Hof Method. I came to a conclusion that what happens before we are born is the same as what happens after we die, the meaning of life is to give us experience of being alive and experiencing every emotion. Make the most of your life guys, you matter more than you think you do! :)
When I do the breathing I always think, If I smoked something to feel this, I'd be so addicted
@@aman-ch8tb pre-life is the same as after-life, go meditate, with no biases
Nay, this is just the beginning. Life doesn't end.
You are the Universe experiencing itself from your unique perspective. You were never born, and you will never die.
That’s the endogenous DMT talking ;)
been doing this video for the last week, and I never got to 3 mins. I'm proud to say that today I've finally got to 3 mins. thanks for the video
Congratulations!😀
The only way I can get the 3 minutes is to leave the last breath our slowly
@bidbadgray
Need to fix the silent gap in the first round and also another round I think. Amazing channel, love it!
Thanks! Unfortunately it is a copyright issue even though I produced the music myself. Still got the copyright claim and had to mute certain parts of the video.
@@breathcentral764 Ah, thank you for the reply!! Understand the music copyright thing, though it's madness as you produced yourself 😳. Maybe change the music? All brilliant otherwise 😊
Столько ребят говорит на разных языках, по разному думают, живут на разных континентах, но занимаются одним и тем же, делают дыхательную практику. Привет всем из уральских гор, из России. Желаю добра, мира и благополучия вам и родным вашим
Привет из Амурской области!
I just discovered a beautiful way to prolong holding breath, allow your body to gently sway to the sound of the music however it wishes to sway. I tend to slump over and go side to side and I feel like I’m floating in water. My neck and back gets a lovely stretch whenever I do this too. , I find I can hold my breath for significantly longer perhaps because my body is in such a state of peace, that must be the reason.😊
This one is my favorite. I've been on the WH kick for a few years now. God's peace to you all 🙏
WHAT A LOVELY way to start my day -❤ this NEW version! Wim - 🎉 I’m in your 80 yr old cohort 🙋🏻♀️ healthy happy energized sharp mind & . . . grateful for you too Wim ‼️
Loved this 7 rounder
I agree I really enjoy starting my day with these exercises
Had some audio cutting out on this one. Love your content. Thank you.
Intermittent fasting and this!! Great Combo!!! 💕
@@user-ym2ky7yj9n if you want to loose weight just eat less, Portion control.
I'm always finding a new favorite here. Feeling great that I can go 3 minutes and sometimes beyond. I used this yesterday and was pleased that there was no ad disruption after the final breath release.
It has been a couple of years since I last did this video. Thank you. I forgot what it was like.
I going to start my day with this video from now on, it brings me back to the present to reality and that has a profound spiritual lesson to teach me. Surrender to what it is and trust. thank you!
I can't believe I did 3 minutes! Thanks.
Congratulations!🤗
❤ I started my morning with this video with my eyes closed because I was still tired but I look forward to doing again when I’m not so tired and I will watch the beautiful screen as well.
Thank you for making this
This is great but why put ads in a timed breathing exercise? Maybe put them before only and not during the exercise. Edited: I came back to this and it's much better now. I used it for two days straight. Great video but there are little parts with no audio. Don't worry, just keep your breath held. God bless you all! P.S. what's the song during the breath hold?
No ads, im with youtube premium
Pay for premium and you’ll never have ads. Totally worth it.
Premium is the best investment
Brokey😂
Thanks.. Not bothering with this one
Love it.Its fast.I have no time to dream,It's energizing. THANK YOU WHIM
Loved this version! My favorite! Thank you so much for creating the video! also props to Mr. Hoff! Much love world!
This is exactly what I needed. Thx so much.
Great Conntent. Really helps me focusing helped me exploring myself :)
You're a great mindset, motivation asset to the internet community, by way of #You Tube Coach. Keep doing your thing #Namaste
Thanks so much for making these videos!! Just one small niggle is that the music cuts off in round two breath hold and straight after the 4th breath hold. Really appreciate these videos
Thank you. There has been a problem with the music copyright (even though I produced the music myself) so I had to mute some parts in order to avoid ads in the middle of a session. However, I already made a new version without the music cut off: kzhead.info/sun/driyhLeapGmbjZE/bejne.html Feel free to check it out :)
Amazing, thank you!
I really like your music compositions, especially this one. Do you you share/sell them anywhere? This one has a real transcendental/psychedelic feel to it. 🙏
@@Richard-cv9vm Thank you. No, currently I do not share or sell them anywhere, but it is a good idea and something I was thinking about already. Stay tuned :)
Thank you so much 🌺 This is a great video. Well done.
Great pace
Lovely video, nice, quiet and for me the right length of holding the breath , thanks🙏
Incredible session 🎉🎉
Love this one.
Really good, Thanks🎃😊
Omg ich habe noch nie so lange meinen Atem angehalten 😳
I am grateful to you 🙏🏼💜
Thank you. 🙏
Love it! Thank you!
This is incredible
Thank you
Very good and music is perfection: thank you
Excelente video, buen trabajo 👍🏼
Amazing bro, thanks for the video. Can you make one power breath of 50 breaths, 4 cycles and starting already with 2:30 min and build up from there?
Thanks
Great video, thank you so much
Im here. Every day. Merry christmas mr wim hof. ❤
Hey! That's great! I'm at the beginning and I've done this ... THX
Worked out, did this, now for shower. ❤………….berrr
This video is perfect apart from a few occasions where the sound cuts out
Unfortunately, still got copyright claimed somehow even though I produced the music on my own. Some parts had to be muted. But there are more versions like this on the channel without any issues. Feel free to check them out. :) Best, Breath Central
Nice just checked out your library...impressive. Subscribed
I thought when doing the 2nd final breathing of each round u inhale air as much as possible into the lung cuz it was like yo why is so easy till i see the descrip, failed 8x at round 4 but i finally nailed it!!!
3 weeks and I can easily make to 2:30, At the beginning I barely did Wim's 1:30
Hello everyone. Lately I have been getting comments that some of you have ads in the middle of this session. Of course, this is a huge problem because it interrupts while you should relax. Unfortunately, I do not have any control over the ads since it is a music copyright issue even though I produced the music on my own. Therefore, I decided to make a new version of this video for everyone who wants an uninterrupted session. Here it is: kzhead.info/sun/driyhLeapGmbjZE/bejne.html UPDATE: For everybody who prefers to do their session without music or wants to play their own music, I made a version of this session without music. You can find it here: kzhead.info/sun/bNZ-Yq9lsGJ3pIU/bejne.html
Can. You make a video where there is no music in background , i really like your work keep up the effort
@@adyakshsharma5057 It is in the works. Stay tuned :)
@@adyakshsharma5057 There is the version without music in the background: kzhead.info/sun/bNZ-Yq9lsGJ3pIU/bejne.html I hope you like it :)
Hi, just to say thank you for your great work. This is my go to session, but I also do others of yours if I have more time. 👍😀
@@simonc2929 Appreciate the kind words :)
Great video, I really enjoy it but please fix breaks in audio and another comment mentioning longer relaxing period after breath work. It would be nice to have the same video going another round going up to 4 minutes breath hold, please and thank you 😊 🙏
Unfortunately, even though I produced the music on my own, I still got some copyright claims. In all other videos, there is no such issue. There are also a lot more versions with different lengths and breaths available. Feel free to check them out. Regarding 4 minutes, perhaps you are looking for this video: kzhead.info/sun/lMN9gLCOpoyefIE/bejne.html
@@breathcentral764 I will check it out thank you 😊 🙏
That was good 🎉no voice distractions , sorry Wim~ just the basics Xx
I like a lot the scenery, the rounds/time is nicely set up, liked it way more than the original 3 round version. Though I found the pulsating counter quite annoying....It would be nice to only have a small counter somewhere in the corner ;)
Do not watch, just listen!:)
Wonderful video but there are two bugs. The sound stops twice and it's a bit disturbing. Would be really awesome if you could fix this. Thanks a lot!
There is a new version because of this reason: kzhead.info/sun/driyhLeapGmbjZE/bejne.html Had some problem with the music copyright. Enjoy! :)
@@breathcentral764 Oh yeah! Awesome! Thank you so much!
My breath holds are only 1 to 1.5 minutes long. Am I doing it right? I feel amazing, but curious what others are experiencing.
Thanks for creating this🧠🫁🌌
Hey guy I have been doing this breath work for about 2 weeks now. I have finally made it to the point where I can hold my breath for 2min 30sec but when I get to the 3 min breath hold I struggle once I’m halfway through and need to breath again, been stuck on the 3 min breath hold for 3 days in a row. Any tips and do you guys think I’ll be able to achieve it?
this is my firts try wish mw luck
I hope it went well :)
Can you make it downloadable? I mean i want to keep it offline in youtube so that I can access even if there is no internet. Thank you.
I had a loud buzzing in my head a tingling all over my body and my chest was being weighed down
Is the inhale through the nose or mouth? And on the two minute breaks am I supposed to try and hold my breath?
Whatever you prefer. Perhaps if you are a beginner, start with just breathing through the nose and later start breathing through the mouth more. I personally do the first few rounds through the nose, but always finish breathing through the mouth.
🙏
Can I find the music you made for this video somewhere?
My arms and legs have tingled like never before. Are there others where the fingers lift and stiffen?
Yes, it happens to me all the time after an intense session. My body goes really stiff when the tingling hits, but it passes soon after
🙏🙏🙏🙏😘
my eye started twitching, so I started panicking. Crushed 2 rounds. and my fingers, the tingles are so strong. So I stopped after 2 rounds. and doing the whole thing tomorrow night.
Dont worry about the tingles, its absolutely normal and it cant hurt you, just don’t overdo the breath hold, usually your mind quits before u actually need to take a new breath, but if u really need to breathe dont push it. The tingles cant hurt you and can feel rather pleasent if u accept them. Eye twitching might be because your holding pass your limit and you’re about to pass out 😂be careful and never do this exercise around water, shower etc.
By about round 3 depending on how into I am, my hands will become extremely tingly, to the point my hands and fingers will lock up in a weird position, almost like a spasm. Am I the only one??
Consult a physician
There are 3 times the audio just wents completely quiet. Could you check this out? 17:51 is one spot and there are 2 other spots. I thought before it is my internet and downloaded this and done many other times. Something def wrong with this and it is very disturbing. If you could fix would be awesome this is one of my favourites.
I am aware of this problem. Produced the music for this video on my own and still got copyright claims. In order to keep the video up and running, the copyrighted sections had to be muted. But there are many different versions of this video on this channel. I'm sure you will find the right one :)
@@breathcentral764 have you contacted KZhead this is not right!
@@Xequi Yes I did, but unfortunately could not change a thing.
@@breathcentral764 must be frustrating. That is fucked up
My chest hurt after this
I need the backround sounds please
3:53 round 2 - 2:00. Pin for myself :D
Could u also produce one without the breathing noise ? That would be soooo good
Yes. It is planned. Should be out pretty soon. Stay tuned :)
have you got the music only file of this I can have? I really enjoy the music, but 3 times in the audio it cuts and completely takes you out of the moment. I want to put that on top of your no music one so I can stay in the moment
I tried to send you an e-mail on two different addresses (gmail and hotmail) and both could not be delivered because the addresses were not found. Please provide another way to contact you and we can make this happen. Best, Breath Central
@@breathcentral764 just wanted to confirm my comment responding to this came up, I dont know If they are getting shadowed or not, but you could please send me a dm on I G which is in my bio (I dont want to say it incase it gets deleted)
What is the reason for successfully hold the breath for 3 minutes or even longer and sometimes have to give up after 2 1/2 minutes🤔 always at the same conditions - morning after getting up between 6+7 o clock😊 Pitty that the music stopps several times😢 However it’s a Great exercise 👍❤️
Sorry that the music stops. Had some copyright issues even though I produced the music on my own. Had to turn it off at some segments :/ Do not worry about the breath holds.. They depend on a lot of factors like how you were breathing, how long you are doing the technique already, how well rested you are, if you ate something in the last few hours or not.. Breath holds should only be up to a comfortable time. I have been doing the Wim Hof technique for years now and can sometimes hold my breath longer than 3 minutes but if my breathing pace is off, or I'm not that focused or rested I sometimes can't even do 2 minutes or even 1.5 minutes.. So if you can't do more than 2.5 minutes on a certain day its because maybe you did not sleep so well or had a bit too much to eat or drink last night😅 At least that's the case with me. I hope this was at least somewhat helpful :)
@@breathcentral764 thanks alot❤️
Would it be possible to have the names of those places?
Some exact locations are Portage Lake in Alaska, Bled in Slovenia and Vordersee in Switzerland :)
@@breathcentral764 thank you very much
All from Canada
I really like this video, but the two advertisements that came on in the middle of the video are very distracting.
I agree. Read my pinned comment :)
Just want a reconfirmation. Is it breathing through the nose and breathe out through the mouth. Please help. Need clarity
For Wim Hof Breathing, it doesn't matter as much, usually when you start out it is easier to breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth but breathing in through your mouth and out through your mouth also works. Whatever you feel most comfortable with
it's better through the nose. out noses were made for breathing the mouth for eating and talking.
Can someone tell me what the background music is
The music for this video was produced by me. It is not released anywhere.
@@breathcentral764 damn it’s so peaceful. You should start a Spotify account with the kind music 🙏
@@oliverpenman8738 Thanks, to create a music project is also a goal of mine. Definitely something I look forward to doing. :)
I always feel like throwing up when holding the breath for long? Anyone else experiencing similar feelings?
Once I felt like this but it was when I started breathing right after I woke up and also did it very very intensely. Is this also the case with you?
Can you take the ads off during the meditation? 🙏
Unfortunately, in this case, I cannot do this. Even though I produced the music in this video completely on my own, KZhead recognizes it as someone else's music. Because of this, it is not possible for me to have any influence over the ads and their location in the video.
Great, too bad that beautiful music interrupted 2x.....🙏🙏
Is it just me or are there some parts where the audio is muted?
Yes, some parts are muted. Produced the music for this on my own, but still got copyright claims for some reason. In order to keep the video online, some parts had to be muted.
@@breathcentral764 Wow that shouldn't even be possible. Music sounds really nice tho so well done!
Ad space spoilt the peace, especially by placing them during the sequence...I am a premium subscriber so for me during the ad time it just went silent for those few seconds and then it picked up the audio....such a shame that such great videos of this channel spoilt the vibe with these ads
It went silent because of a copyright issue. I produced the music myself but still got some copyright claim for some reason unfortunately I had to mute some parts.
@@breathcentral764 ah understandable. Thank you for responding.
No problem at all. Thank you for watching :)@@comily19
Please remove the ad in the middle of the video... It really interrupts the breathing meditation
Unfortunately, in this case, I cannot do this. Even though I produced the music in this video completely on my own, KZhead recognizes it as someone else's music. Because of this, it is not possible for me to have any influence over the ads and their location in the video.
great, but pls at least five minutes more music for relaxation. I like your many videooptions, the music of thevwim hof app sucks...
My latest videos all have about 10 minutes of music at the end. Enjoy :)
Please stop the ads in the middle of the video
Sound disappears by the second round. It's awful.
Had some copyright issues even though I produced the music for this video on my own. Had to mute some parts because of it. Sadly :(
Music stops and it gets quite all of a sudden remove this video and upload a new one. Very annoying.
Yeah, I had to mute some parts due to copyright reasons, even though I produced the music on my own. There are a lot more videos like this on the channel with the same rounds and durations. Feel free to check them out.
Wim, why do u sabotage ur videos n distract us with music that is for the most part too loud, even percussive (like piano), n even louder "OM" mixes? if i'm practicing breathing, i don't want to hear any distracting noises, whether they b music or your voice. the only acceptable thing, 'd be the sound of ur breathing, not faint like some are, clearly recorded, the moving counter on the screen n anything u want to say can be printed on the screen. when i hear music on any video on uTube, i do not want to hear anybody talking over it. n vice versa. now, if ia am like this it means there are others who want that too... take a breath, :o)))
Looks like you are going to like this one: kzhead.info/sun/bNZ-Yq9lsGJ3pIU/bejne.html I hope this is something you will enjoy more :)
@@breathcentral764 Glorious, thany you, thank u, thnx! n now if i coud stop ads from intruding... take a breath :o)))
Breathing is way too fast
Good
You’re breathing out too hard
just download it and turn wifi off
Mir wurde beim ersten Schwindelig ist das normal ?haha
Bei mir war es genau so. Passiert manchmal bei Anfängern :) keine sorgen. Nach ein paar Tagen Übung passiert das nicht mehr
Luft anhalten ?🤣
Great video. It would be great to keep this relaxing sound after last round for 10 min or so just to enjoy feeling
Added this in my latest videos :)
was awesome we've used this everyday for a long time now but youtube have destroyed it now putting ads throughtout it...can no longer use it
@@toietmoispiertz8632 KZhead added the ads automatically and I cant seem to remove them even thought I own all the rights to the content. However I just applied for monetization and hope that this will give me some control over the ads to put them only at the beginning so they dont interrupt your session.
@@toietmoispiertz8632 perhaps it is a matter of location and youtube policy for each country. Im from Poland and we dont have any ads here in this video
I agree
