Being outdoors is always a therapeutic way to let off some steam and feel better in an instant. There is something about the great outdoors that is inviting and beyond healing. Sure, the mountains sound like a great resort on blue days, but much more than them, heading to the beach can make you a brand new person.
Did you know that the beach has therapeutic effects on your emotional and physical health? The blue waters, the grainy sand, the endless calm, and soft breeze through your hair – you know what I mean.
Related to the beach is a concept known as ‘blue space’. Blue space refers to the saturation of the water smells and sounds. Just looking at this massive surface can revitalize you and shake the stress off in no time.
Beach lovers unite and let’s discuss the benefits of heading to the beach and aiming for that ultimate blue space.
Benefits of Visiting the Beach.
1. Stress Relief.
Water can calm down the body like no other force. Even more, it calms the mind and eradicates traces of stress build up in your body.
2. Creativity Boost.
The beach is a great place to relax and come up with new ideas about your business, lifestyle and else. In fact, once reaching the ‘blue space’ state, you can get a clearer mind and express yourself creatively. Just like meditation, the beach is a great way to get some thought clearance and let your best traits come to life.
3. Fights Depression.
Hopelessness, loneliness, and depression – you can forget all these by going to the beach, even for a few hours. The soothing sounds of the water and breeze can make you feel replenished and relieved of all depressive thinking. Add visuals to the equation and you have yourself a healing knockout!
4. A Change of Perspective.
How you feel, act, think and more…it is all due to the way you perceive life. That said, to obtain maximum quality of thoughts and shift your focus, visit the beach. Its realigning powers can cleanse your soul of all prejudices and will give you something worth hoping for.
5. Promoted sleep.
It only takes a few hours at the beach to sleep like a baby at night. Highly recommended for insomniacs, the beach is a natural therapy that promotes relaxation, ease and even a hormonal balance which will have you dream away in no time.
6. Vitamin D Source.
The sun is an amazing source of vitamin D, which ultimately makes us happy, fulfilled and optimistic. Spending even 10 minutes at the beach can be enough to promote a higher wellbeing and acquire the positivity you lacked.
7. Fighting off Infections.
Saltwater is a natural and favorable way to get rid of infections. Even more, salt water can promote a greater respiratory performance and will keep your airways clear and your skin replenished.
In addition, due to iodine found in salt water, you will get a full immunity boost, too.
8. Exercise.
The beach makes a great place to exercise. From swimming to surfing and jogging, the possibilities of getting in shape are endless. What is more, at the beach no exercise seems as demanding as it does at the gym.
