lots of different benefits; energy, focus, immune system, my experience is I feel tingling whilst and after doing it (once I got the hang of technique), but feel focused and totally awake after doing it and generally feel better. Now that I am following that with cold showers!!! seems to clear my head and feel more alive. I totally love it. Quick google to see if I missed anything, highlights these benefits

Advantages of the Wim Hof Method breathing exercises

  • Stress reduction.
  • Faster recovery from physical exertion.
  • Better sleep.
  • Improved sports performance.
  • Enhanced creativity.
  • More focus and mental clarity

2nd and 4th bullet points would be good for you :grinning:

Hey, all-
Checking in sober, Day 111 (a nice round number!)

Still dealing with the feeling of “justifiable” anger over an issue… Having trouble let it go, especially as the other party is posting lies on FB, emailing people and even calling people to disparage me. Trying to let it go, but it is hard.

Attended an AA step meeting hoping it would help. Was initially disappointed that instead of doing a step we did a tradition, Tradition 4. But when we got to the end of the reading, it was clear this was meant for me: “Rule #62: Don’t take yourself too damn seriously.”

Feeling better now, like so many things my pain is due to Ego. Let go of Self!

Good morning good morning!

Last night was a bit rough for me. I took the advice of @Drunk2Sober and got back in touch with my spirituality.

I used to meditate every night before going to bed but then life and university got too busy. Now I have fallen out of it. Before bed last night I found a guided meditation. I like the astral projection ones. I have issues with nightmares and it helps me get into a lucid state. I felt like how I did back then. So centred within myself. So forgiving.

Today I am feeling a little thirsty so I need to fill my day with some activities. Some gardens seeds came in so I will do some of that today. Maybe a virtual tour to the Sistine Chapel in Italy. And maybe I will fill my night with a baby yoda puzzle :jigsaw:

Good luck everybody :crossed_fingers:t3::pray:t3:
