Thank you so much for collating that information, it’s really clear and concise. I am working with the WHM and it has been a real game changer for myself and my clients, who see me for massage and manual therapy treatments. I have clients with complex health conditions, such as multiple sclerosis, fibromyalgia and other autoimmune diseases.

Would you mind if I link to this article once my website is finished? It is currently in progress

So I have a question: when I did the Wim Hof method, I noticed feeling a little dizzy – a classic sign of co2 depletion. I get on better with Buteyko – but found the long breath holds really fun with the Wim Hof method. Is there any danger of blowing off too much co2 with the Wim Hof method? Or was I doing it wrong? As a teacher I really notice low co2 after hours of talking or a few minutes of laughing!

So far you’re the only other person I’ve seen who’s made the association between his breathing method and intermittent hypoxia. As such, I thought you’d enjoy seeing an actual study on humans looking into the cognitive benefits of intermittent hypoxia: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4034215/

I’ve got more, as well as a pdf version of “Intermittent hypoxia and human disease” which I’ve found to be a particularly useful resource. Let me know if you’d like a copy.

I recently started Wim Hof and it impressed me. Now I’m wondering if there’s a whole lot of treasure hidden in Indian Pranayam which I never knew about. I’m intrigued.
