Imagine returning from a transforming day on the water feeling rejuvenated, clear, calm and relishing in the days experience.
Constant pressure from an always connected life at work and at home eventually leads to disengagment and burnout.

At first I was ready to write off Blue Mind as a type of motivational speech, but I actually found myself really resonating with what he was saying…many people aren’t aware of what happens when you’re near water and the positive effects that come with it.
What I found most interesting about Blue Mind was the difference between someone blue minded versus red or gray minded…and to realize we are living in a red minded world at the moment with everything going on.
…humans can have an emotional connection with the water. I personally felt this because I grew up near the ocean and went to many lakes and rivers when I was younger. When I am on a boat in the middle of the water I get a feeling like nothing else, a peaceful feeling.
I thought that the blue, red and gray mind descriptions made it easier to understand the whole concept. I enjoyed learning about what actually happens within the body when it’s exposed to water. I also found it interesting how water being medicine is an ancient concept. With all the screen time we are exposed to now, we are often in the red or gray mind phase.
Learning how to use all the Blue Mind tools to incorporate them into my life and work everyday is going to be very helpful to me.
By the end of the day I had completely reset my mind and stress level and am thankful I attended.

What is Blue Mind Wellness?


Blue Mind is Serious Wellness Science

Water’s healthful effects are so great that aquatic therapists are now employing water to treat addictions, PTSD, anxiety, autism as well as many other conditions. Surfer’s often describes a Zen-like state they get by being on the water and catching and riding waves. But the goal of surfing therapy is not to teach people to surf. It is to get them to use the activity of surfing to help change their brain chemistry to Blue Mind. It
is no wonder that today humans still go to the water for these same purposes. One just has to think of how many vacations we spend near the beach, lake or river participating in water sports like swimming, sailing, fishing, scuba diving or visiting an aquarium.
