Why this fund manager is happy to take an ice bath
Wim Hof, known to millions as the ‘Ice Man’ for his advocacy around how deep breathing and cold showers can transform people, has found a new backer in Geoff Wilson.
“I’m changing psychiatry,” Dutch-born wellness phenomenon Wim Hof declares, sitting in a T-shirt and wet swimming shorts after a two-minute ice bath in Sydney’s CBD.
Next to him is fund manager and philanthropist Geoff Wilson, also fresh from the icy plunge, cradling a cup of tea and zipped up in a long-sleeved Nike top and pants.
