What do happy people need?

August 6, 2022 by Adam Mazek

Happy people need nothing because they are happy.

It is not my thought, but Wim Hof’s quotation that content people need nothing because they are happy. Wim Hof, also known as The Iceman, is a Dutch extreme athlete. He is famous for his ability to withstand freezing temperatures. Indeed, he was the one who inspired my beloved Kamilka to take cold showers. Then, Kamilka inspired me to do this. I am genuinely grateful to her for this inspiration. Since I started to take cold showers (April 2021), I felt like a demigod. Intermittent fasting was my first step to feeling better, healthier, and happier. The second step was starting to take cold showers. As a curiosity, I can tell you, my Dear Friend, that since I began to take freezing showers (including pouring freezing water straight into my head and face), I have had recurring dreams every night.

It does not mean that I have nightmares and the quality of my sleep decreased.

Contrary! I sleep much better, and these dreams are normal, sound, and I usually remember most of them within few minutes after I wake up. I remember that I had such good sleep and dreams that I was reminded of how it is to feel like a child, once again in my life! How happy I am when I think that I have beloved Kamilka, loving parents and family, friends, and a genuine passion, that you can analyze here, on the www.adammazek.com website. Both intermittent fasting (eating between 7 p.m. – 24 p.m. and avoiding sugar and processed food) and freezing showers only empowering my feeling of luck.

That’s why I totally agree with Wim Hof that happy people need nothing because they are happy. I do not need a new car or a new camera to feel satisfied. I hope that the current status of enjoyment will last until the end of my life.
