Förbättra hälsa, humör och energi med Wim Hof-metoden

Strengthen your health with the Wim Hof Method

A weekend with WHM intructor Coach Björn

October 25-27, 2024

Language: Swedish

We are happy to welcome you to an inspiring weekend with the Wim Hof method, led by the certified level 2 instructor Björn Karlsson! During this weekend you will explore the three pillars of the Wim Hof Method: breathing technique, exposure to cold and mental focus/attitude.

It is inspiring to see that Wim Hof activities are booked by such a diverse crowd of people. Regardless of your age, professional background or interests, you will gain an in-depth understanding of how to optimize both your physical and mental health and capacity. It's everything from students, managers, retirees, industrial workers and self-employed people to athletes. This diversity of participants is one of the great things about booking a Wim Hof Method weekend, where you can learn and grow with people from different professions and backgrounds.

This method is scientifically based and supported by research and studies, giving you the tools to optimize your body and mind to reach new heights. The main benefits of the Wim Hof method include improved mental focus and clarity, increased energy and stamina, reduced stress and anxiety, enhanced immune system, faster recovery and increased tolerance to cold.

Wim Hof Method Weekend

During this weekend, Björn Karlsson takes you on a three-day trip for an extended Wim Hof Method training experience. WHM Weekends are meant to be a deeper exploration of the Wim Hof method than can be covered in a workshop.

Over the course of this weekend, all aspects of the Wim Hof Method will be covered in detail. You will learn about the physiological mechanisms involved and engage in a variety of breathing and cold therapy activities. Björn incorporates other activities that work in synergy with the Wim Hof Method – such as meditation, nutrition, physical performance, stress management, mental mindset for focus, etc. – based on Coach Björn's own specialization and areas of expertise.

Treat yourself to being able to leave everyday life for a weekend in a fantastic environment and learn and immerse yourself in the tools that make you strong, happy and healthy. A deep dive into the incredibly popular and scientifically supported Wim Hof method for better health through the three pillars of breathing, exposure to cold and mindset.

Completing a Wim Hof weekend at Mundekulla gives you more than "just" a unique experience in a calming place far from the stress of everyday life. You are filled with new knowledge and insights both to improve your health, manage stress and increase your physical performance. But also to share a completely unique experience together. A recurring feedback I get from my Wim Hof events is along the lines of "almost provocative that you weren't taught some of these basic things about breathing already in primary school". I get this response from both the "office worker" and the "ironman athlete."

Practice mindfulness and concentration, learn the method that can both regulate your autonomic nervous system and immune system, train your blood vessels while strengthening the body, making it more resilient, reducing inflammation and developing flexibility and agility in both mind and body. WHM Weekends suit both those who are new to the method and those who are already practicing.

The weekend will be taught by an experienced certified level 2 instructor, with a limited number of participants. This means high-quality teaching and very personal attention. Our base will be the Mundekulla Retreat center and we will also take part in its beautiful surroundings and nature.

Whether you want to improve your mental or physical performance, become a master at managing stress, relieve symptoms related to an inflammatory disease or are just curious about what the Wim Hof method is all about. You will learn how breathing and cooling can briefly stress your body for a calming, beneficial, strengthening and healing effect, and learn how the mind can be controlled and what opportunities you have to actually influence your physical response and ability to stress by how you choose use your thoughts and breathing.

Who is this weekend for?

This workshop is suitable for everyone, but does require a basic level of health. Out of precaution, we advise against participation during pregnancy, or if you are epileptic. People with cardiovascular issues, or any other serious health conditions should always consult a medical professional before starting the Wim Hof Method.

The instructor: Björn Karlsson

Björn is a Swedish Wim Hof instructor from Kalmar, 43 years old with a 9-year-old son. Exercise and nutrition have been his true passion for as long as he can remember, but it was not his profession. Becoming a Wim Hof instructor has given him so much and being able to inspire others to better health is something he is passionate about. To each time be present with another person when they discover something completely new and often revolutionary for the first time within themselves.

“After going through fatigue syndrome myself 2 years back due to an all too hectic 20 years in IT project management business I discovered the amazing healing and energizing effects of the Wim Hof method. Beside getting my energy back and reducing stress I also quickly discovered my asthma symptoms disappeared and my problem with cold white fingers during winter time completely disappeared. Today I don't even need gloves when playing in the snow with my 9 year old.

I also came to realize I truly love to inspire others towards better health both physically and mentally. I decided to embark on the journey toward a new career to be a health coach and become a certified Wim Hof instructor. I am convinced that anyone can take back control over their health just like I did, and am super excited to assist you in your own journey.”

/Louise Sydbeck

"When I booked the course, I did it as part of my personal development. I had no in-depth knowledge of the method, but a quick search online made me feel that Björn and Mundekulla were something I wanted to investigatecloser. I received a very pleasant reception that lasted the entire course. Björn was clear and listened and adapted the content to us participants so that we got the most out of it. The atmosphere that Björn and Mundekulla created meant that people are happy to recommend and think about a continuation course themselves. For me, the breathing exercises were powerful and gave a greater effect than expected. The ice bath was surprisingly cold, but Björn's guidance meant that I consciously handled the situation. The effect of the day lasted and I had a calm that I haven't had in a long time. So I am obviously very satisfied after the course and recommend Björn as a coach."
