Becoming cancer-free using the Wim Hof Method.
Hi Marcos,
Marcos Jarvis.
What is your story?
Hi Wim.
Yeah, my story is...
Two years ago I got diagnosed with stage four incurable advanced cancer.
And obviously, they didn't give me a lot of hope.
They just sent me home to...
try and live the best way I could and put me on a palet of chemo.
But I came home,
and I decided that I COULD do something extra to go along with the chemotherapy I was on.
And my brother in law suggested that I read your book.
and obviously I read your book,
and it inspired me and blew my mind.
And they told me not to touch anything cold during chemo
so the first thing I did was go in an ice bath.
Yes and cold showers every day.
I was running with no t-shirt on all the way through winter
to try to get the cold exposure.
And doing the breathwork
and my first scan I went for,
The tumors had actually started to shrink.
So.
Yes amazing.
Absolutely amazing.
And I was feeling really, really good,
even though I was going through chemotherapy
I found that I wasn't losing my hair
because of the cold showers.
I don't know whether it's the different type of chemo I had done but...
I had 35 rounds of chemotherapy,
but I managed to run six miles every day,
whilst I was on chemotherapy.
I changed my diet to vegan
Yeah just basically lived my best life.
And then they actually decided that there was an opportunity to do surgery,
and now they've done surgery.
And I just carried on with your method and my healthy and running exercise,
...meditation, breathing.
and two years later I am now cancer free.
So that's my story.
The world needs to know
that you, in spite of not going into the cold,
went into the cold,
and felt so good about it.
Because these white blood cells levels just went way up.
And that makes you feel energetically great
it preserves the healthy tissue
because the immune system when it is way up,
it is able to...
to fend off the poisonous chemo in the healthy tissue.
Yet in the tumor,
It (chemo) gets into the tumor
Stronger
And that's amazing.
And you are examplifying this
with an absolute positive attitude
which is absolutely helping
you to get through all this and take the lead
instead of being a helpless victim taking on some chemo in his last days.
Yes.
You turned the tables.
On the day of chemo therapy I would do your breathing exercise.
before I went.
And when I finished chemotherapy that day, I would come home
and whatever the weather was,
whether it was raining or snowing,
freezing cold, minus 8 (Celcius)
I would just put my pair of shorts and trainers on
Goodmorning everyone.
What a perfect morning it is this morning.
It’s snowing
I’m in the middle of Birmingham
I have no picc line,
I have no T-shirt
And I’m just about to run.
I'd run six miles every time I had chemo and I was able to do it.
and I was able to do it.
Whereas a lot of patients were saying,
“I can't even walk down the stairs when I’m finished here.”
so there's definitely something in that
to be able to push through
because chemotherapy is horrible.
It is.
It is.
This is a strong message to anybody looking at this,
having chemo and having cancer.
You are able to make the absolute difference
and there is so much difference,
and you can not ignore this story.
It's where YOU and your spirit came in and made all the difference,
turned the tables,
and after two years the ‘incurable’ liver cancer is suddenly gone.
You are clean,
you are a soul that has survived.
All I can say to anyone out there, just change your mindset.
Get in the cold,
and there is hope and there is chance.
because I did it.
and I'm just a normal person
that comes from a building background.
And I got the devastation of the diagnosis
and I just took it head on.
With your strength and your mindset,
and the cold therapy and changing the diet,
Exercise and meditation.
It all complimented along the way.
I put everything all together in a big package,
and smashed the hell out of cancer.
You are inspiring possibly tens of thousands of people
who are in a similar situation.
for that I salute you.
I thank you.
You are a warrior
who brings the light where there is so much darkness.
Thank you.
