My Morning Routine with Ice Bath, Meditation, Deep Breathing and more. Wim Hof inspired.

For FAQ about the type of cold plunge, see first pinned comments. Over the past years I have been experimenting with a lot of different ways to start your day, what works and what doesn’t work. A good morning routine makes you feel in control and this sets the tone for the rest of your day.

For the first hour of my day I will make it a clear point to NOT get on my phone. Instead I focus every day on meditation, Wim Hof Method inspired deep breathing, journaling, ice baths and a few other routines. This 3 minute video shows the first 30 minutes of my day.

Full details with benefits about each practice can be found on my blog: http://extramilest.com/blog/my-mornin...

********* SAFETY WARNING - Please don’t do anything stupid. Do not do the Wim Hof breathing exercise in water, while driving or in other critical situations. If there is a short loss of consciousness, this can be deadly! Ease into cold exposure and don’t stay in too long. One way to start out is by taking cold showers and transitioning from there to short ice baths. *********

This is my morning routine for most days of the week, some days I start my routine after my early morning run. Setting aside 30 minutes in the mornings will positively influence the rest of your day. Consistency is key in developing a morning routine that works for you and actually sticking to it. Meditation, deep breathing, gratitude journaling and cold therapy bring me tremendous health benefits, physically, mentally and spiritually.

If you are developing your own morning routine, I suggest trying different things for several days and asking yourself “how am I currently feeling”? Write down your experiences and use tools like the Fitbit to track body markers such as resting heart rate, sleep stages, etc over time to notice differences. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself, start for example with a 5 minutes daily meditation for a week. Be kind to yourself and have fun!
