Hi my name is Merrill, and I am from Boston,MA. When I was younger, I was fascinated by two things. First was The Force, this mystical energy which the Jedi use in the Star Wars movies. Are we all connected? Can we tap into this force and become supernatural? Can I go on my own quest and discover this power? Second was exploring this beautiful planet and all her glory. My dad took me to see a nature documentary where these explorers were going to some of the most awe-inspiring places on the planet. I didn't know how but I told myself then that I want to do that! Hike the highest mountains, bathe in the richest waterfalls, and discover the most abundant rainforest. To me, becoming a WHM instructor is a vehicle to explore the depths of my inner (the force) and my outer (planet) world in all its beauty.
Fast forward to the Summer of 2020, I had three walls of pressure caving in which caused me to hit a breaking point in my mental health. One summer night, I was on vacation with my family and decided to go on Youtube to essentially escape my reality. My curiosity led me to a video about Wim; climbing the highest mountains, living with vitality, energy, passion for life!!! That night I tried the breathing method and for the first time in 5 months, my presence, calmness, and joy was back.
It was at this point where I fully committed to the cold showers, breathing, and the mindset followed shortly after. Using the method as both foundation and momentum, I began committing to a lifestyle which fostered growth and possibility. Found myself adding other practices to my life such as tai chi, meditation, nature walks, and mindfulness. It felt like, and still does, I am this unstoppable train of righteous power & love, who wants to invite others on this incredible journey. Everyday, piercing through the veil of my limitations and going full force towards my dreams.
Want to join the adventure? Lets go!!! Happiness, Strength, and Health.
