When you first heard of cold air exposure, it might have sounded crazy. Why freeze your body outdoors in low temperatures, hiking in snow, when you could be cozy at home?

When you work on yourself every single day, everything slowly comes together. You will realize that meditation, exercising, and eating healthy foods are wonderful, but when you add functional breathing, cold exposure, and radical self-love to the mix, you enter a whole different world of living. It's the ultimate package for a healthy lifestyle!

In this wonderful outdoor workshop, we will explore, practice, and embrace the science of cold air exposure. You will get to experience what it truly feels like to be one with nature in a cold environment.

What You Will Master: The Science of Warming Yourself

​

 

This experience is not about enduring the cold—it’s about learning to generate heat from within. You will gain critical knowledge and hands-on techniques to use cold as your friend, not your enemy:

 

1. Foundational Knowledge & Safety

 

• The "Why": Understand the science behind why cold exposure is beneficial for our bodies, including how to activate your body's brown fat for sustained, natural heat generation and metabolic boost (metabolic boost, mood elevation, circulatory health).

• Safe Practice: Learn different types of cold exposure and the specific protocols for safe exposure, including how often to expose ourselves to cold environments.

• Is This for Me?: Objectively determine if cold exposure is the right step for your current health journey and how to start a practice safely.

 

2. Breath and Movement Protocols

 

• Internal Furnace Breathing: I will teach you the specific functional breathing technique required to efficiently warm your body from the inside out, turning the cold air into energy.

• Mastering Oxygen & Control: Learn a simple technique to prevent hyperventilation and manage the feeling of being out of breath, ensuring oxygen delivery and steady control throughout your cold air exposure.

• The Mindset Breakthrough: You will safely and experimentally step into the cold to trick your mind into believing it's not so bad. You will practice the feeling of cold exposure, learn to listen to your body's signals, and know when to safely end your exposure. We set a maximum threshold (up to 50 minutes), but your body is always in charge.

3. Embodied Experience

 

• Hands-On Practice: We will immediately apply these techniques during a winter hike.

• Embrace the Joy: See the cold as your friend, not the enemy, once and for all. We'll celebrate your courage with fun, memorable activities like making snow angels!
