The Sea & Us
The sea affects the lives of all of us, no matter how far from the shore we live. We depend on the sea for the air that we breathe, the water that we drink and the food that we eat.
Research has shown that being near the sea can make you both calmer and more creative. Gazing out at the water gives your brain and senses a rest from stress and overstimulation, puts you into a mindful state, and can trigger thoughts and ideas that have eluded you whilst sitting at your computer.
A workout by, or in, sea water can be far more beneficial to your body and mind than exercising in a crowded, frantic gym environment and, in the calming and restful state associated with interacting with water, the sea can also inspire you to be more caring and connected.
