My Health Journey

I am Brandy Von Holten and I am not the person that I want to be in regards to my health. These are the steps I'm taking in my health journey. I might not be as good as I once was but I want my future to be better than I am today. 

  • Ice Water Baths for 3-6 minutes, water temperature under 58 degrees
  • Primarily eating a slow carb diet and intermittant fasting with specific ketones
  • Focus on holistic health 
  • Raise our own beef and poultry 
  • I work on my mindset and plan my day using my custom planner
  • I track my workouts and activities using my custom tracking template

Observations By Brandy After

300 Ice Baths in One Year

Mental Changes

Behind the Scenes

  • Face was the worst part
  • Nailbeds hurt if water temp below 44 (especially hand I used to hold cigarettes with in younger years)
  • Whole process is work:  time, effort, and laundry
  • Cold showers were more difficult for me and I didn't get the same results than when I submerged myself
  • Some days were harder than others, regardless of the water temperature
  • If I thought the ice bath was going to be easy because the water was in the upper 50's, it was more difficult because I was not mentally prepared
  • People body shamed me daily 

What's Next

  • Focusing on my routine and using goals as a direction
  • Focusing on eating pure foods
  • Focusing on improving my horsemanship, archery, and knowledge base for homesteading.
  • Helping others with improving their business and achieving their goals through my courses.
  • Adding red light to my regimen and having genetic testing done to understand my needs better

What is Brandy drinking?

Ketones have been a game-changer in my health journey. This product has helped me continue my fasts for longer, improved my mental clarity, and made my appetite disappear. It was originally designed for NASA, made to starve out cancer and stop the degeneration of brain tissue. 

This is the only product I use other than real food I either raised, grew, or purchased locally.

Sweating is one of the best ways to get rid of toxins. The reason I use my infrared sauna four days a week is to detox my body and relieve stress. It also helps improve circulation, boost the immune system, and relieve pain. Sitting in the sauna is part of my holistic health journey.

Why Do Ice Water Baths?  

According to Dr. Berg, when you expose your body to the cold for short periods of time, it helps to boost your immune system, boosts your noradrenaline (helps mental health), raises your metabolism, and helps the body shed excess fat, improves insulin sensitivity, helps reduce inflammation, increases antioxidants, protects your brain, enhances sleep, increases longevity by stimulating autophagy, reduces cortisol levels, and improves muscle recovery.
