I think that' thinking' is only part of consciousness.
What happened to feeling?
Feeling has disappeared.
You can’t find that in dusty old books.
And you are searching for feeling?
Absolutely.
Yes.
And I think that I will be able to find that in the simple things.
Yes that's...
Here it’s good.
But here it seems to be very thin.
Alright.
They call him the ice hole diver
Or the 'iceman of Sloterplas'
Never try to do this yourself.
You hear weird sounds underneath the ice.
Especially when the sun is shining.
That’s when it starts to break.
I just know it.
That there are a lot of energy fields. That tend to get stuck
The blood starts to flow
On those moments it starts to contract.
Suddenly.
It starts to flow.
And that's connected with your brain.
Suddenly you're like ‘Wow I want to do things.'
That is the energy you get from nature.
What are you looking at?
If you can see the water vapor come off the skin.
If it’s really freezing
Like 14 degrees Fahrenheit
I’m almost like a living sigarette
If someone would do this for their first time
I think that could cause damage inside the body.
For that you must need to train yourself.
I heard that plane. It went in the tube.
In that tone, in that vibration
I lost my wife in a tragic accident.
It's part of my life
and it’s very sad...
It has been really difficult for me
and I’m talking about the whole process that comes with it
but...
it really influenced me a lot and it will keep doing that
because now I have 4 kids and I need to continue my life.
Alone. And that takes a lot energy.
How long have you been taking care of them?
Two years.
Two years non stop. Just me alone.
As of now thing are going well.
But...
4 kids, that also means...
you’re being drained yourself.
Your personality
It takes a lot of caring capabilities
and less timet to take care of yourself.
But thanks to these exercises
I can find myself again
and I can generate a lot of energy to do these things.
Have you ever taken a big fall?
No!
Not yet
That's also because...
I do certain things...
I’ve done a 40 meter
Straight up
Steep rock wall
And I know what I’m doing
But this here can be really slippery
It’s slippier than you think.
But you have 4 kids?
Raising them on your own.
That correct.
But I also know
I have never fallen.
That’s why you can't
You're the one hanging 40 meters up
Yes. Yes.
40 meters up and underneath the ice.
And holding your breath for 5 minutes.
Back in the day I would do that underneath the ice.
That is..
That is a recipe for disaster.
But why do you do it then?
The drive to do it is just there.
And what else will happen I don't know.
But what I do know
is that my kids are healthy, strong and can stand on their own.
A human being is mature
in my opinion
When that someone can really feel find peace and feel content.
That awareness.
The feeling that don’t have to chase things
That it’s just there.
Being content.
And not feeling too attached
Not needing this and that.
To just be.
