Description

If given the opportunity, would you climb Mt. Kilamanjaro in nothing but your shorts and sneakers? Would you trust a stuntman-turned-breathing guru with you life? On this week's Yoga Talk Show, you'll meet a guy who did just that—and survived to write a book about it. The guy is Scott Carney, and his teacher is former YTS guest, Wim Hof. This is a wild and somewhat reckless tale, but it'll inspire you to push the limits of your own comfort zone, your imagined physical limitations, and perhaps live a more inspired life. ------------ Listen & Learn: How Wim Hof breathing is very similar to the drug, Diamox, used by high altitude climbers to speed up respiration  Why we've become too comfortable, too spoiled, and too numb to the world around us How cold exposure and controlled hyperventilation (used intelligently) can be a powerful part of a healing regime  How our guest managed to summit Kilamanjaro in nothing but sneakers and a pair of shorts ABOUT OUR GUEST Scott Carney is an investigative journalist and anthropologist. He is a senior fellow at the Schuster Institute for Investigative Journalism and a Scripps Fellow at the Center for Environmental Journalism in Boulder, Colorado. What Doesn't Kill Us is his most recent book; other works include The Red Market and A Death on Diamond Mountain. Scott was a contributing editor at Wired for five years and his writing also appears in Mother Jones, Men's Journal, Playboy, Foreign Policy, Discover, Outside and Fast Company.   Nutritional Tip of the Week: Cook vs Raw Links & References from the Show: Rhonda Patrick on cold therapy Bohr Effect (acid/alkaline of the blood) Scott's Site What Doesn't Kill Us (book)  Got Questions?
