In one of the many podcasts I listened, Wim Hof mentioned that there most definitely exist generational trauma. That’s why, he says, when some people visit his retreats and workshops, during some of the breathing sessions, the people go so deep into the cellular level, they start to loosen up those age old (or in this case even older) traumas that were stuck and embedded for such a long time, that they simply have to cry heavily to let it all out. The same can happen during and after the cold exposure. It’s very nice because they then usually get group hugs and you can see they really need it. Plus afterwards they usually say they feel like reborn and have a very different perspective on life afterwards.
Oh I think this little tool we have here might help…:
