What is Blue Mind?
Blue Mind theory sheds light on the profound impact that our natural environment, particularly water bodies, can have on our overall health and well-being…it is so much more though than the words that attempt to describe it here. It is a felt experience, a feeling most people know when they imagine, speak of or are near and on the water. It is "...something deeply connected, an ancient idea that is encoded in our neurological connections…in every culture, every spiritual tradition, every sacred text...refers to the emotional benefit of healthy water".
