Have you ever met someone who would run to their chemotherapy treatment 6 miles (each way) in the snow?! 

I met Marcos in Poland last December at the Wim Hof Method Instructor Advanced training camp. I knew I recognised him, and I just assumed it was from the training webinars. Then he started telling me his story, and I remembered why I recognised him. He was on a Podcast with Wim a few years ago. He was the crazy (but brilliant) guy who used to run in the snow just in shorts to his chemo appointments……

Marcos has an incredible story of resilience, recovery and power of the mind. He was diagnosed with stage 4 incurable liver cancer, assigned to a hospice and told there was nothing they could do apart from palliative chemo……he is now 4 years cancer free!

In this conversation he shares his process and how he took the power back. The thing I really love is that the steps he took are simple yet powerful and accessible to us all.

Small consistent changes make huge differences to our health in the long run.

Here’s how you can connect with Marcos:

After an inconclusive scan on Monday that temporarily rocked me, I thought it useful to make this episode and share how I was feeling and how it effected me, how I am now,  and my process and my plan moving forwards, still with a goal of getting the all clear. 

Everyday the universe is putting opportunities in front of us. 

Sometimes they don’t look like opportunities and they look bloody scary. 

If you can slow things down and take a moment and look past your initial reaction, there is an opportunity there that you have the choice to embrace. 

That opportunity is one of growth, a chance to find out who you really are and prove to yourself what you’re really capable of. The chances are that by seeing and taking that opportunity, you bring a load of people along the way and you all grow together.

I hope this episode helps you take your power back with whatever you’re going through in life. I hope it helps you realise that vulnerability is power. That on the other side of fear is a door to a whole new world, a world of possibility, love and power. The only difference between the two worlds is how you’re looking at them.

You are stronger than you think. Far stronger.

If you and your team, company or club want to hear my talk

“Brain-Freeze, Breathe and Believe - Challenging times are when we grow the most”

please get in touch and we can figure out a time and date. The talk is free but it would be lovely if you offered a small donation or covered travel costs. The choice is yours.

It also feels like a good time to highlight that I have a workshop on Resilience, Understanding Stress and also  at the heart of the Wim Hof Method workshops are peace, power and resilience. Get in touch and I can share more and you can figure out if they might be the right fit for what your business needs.

In this candid episode, Damon shares his personal struggles with illness and the emotional toll it takes. He emphasises the importance of vulnerability, self-care, and acceptance during tough times. Through his own experiences, he offers practical strategies for coping with illness, including journaling, walking, and maintaining a positive mindset.

Naomi is a Yoga Teacher and Breathwork coach from Bristol. She started practicing Iyengar Yoga in 2009 when she was diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/ME. Prior to that she was a runner, regularly doing 10ks and half marathons, but her illness meant that she couldn’t run to the end of the road without pain and exhaustion setting in. The way that yoga created energy, rather than burnt it up was quite overwhelming for her. It was quite clear that yoga wasn’t just ‘exercise’ and she fell in love with it from the first class!

Naomi completed 2 years of Iyengar Yoga teacher training 2016. She travelled to India to complete a month of study at the Iyengar Institute in Pune in 2019.

​

In 2014, she discovered the Wim Hof Method.  The breathwork, in particular, was like finding the missing piece of her wellness puzzle. In 2023 she completed her Master Module for the Wim Hof Method in the Pyrenees, and became an instructor.   

Naomi is now fully recovered from CFS/ME.
