Listen in to Dr Wallace J Nichols, marine biologist and author of Blue Mind - The Surprising Science that Shows How Being Near, In, On, or Under Water Can Make You Happier, Healthier, More Connected and Better at What You Do.

Blue Mind, explains Dr Nichols, is a simple phrase for something that is familiar, intuitive and about our emotional connection with water or nature. Science, he says, is finally catching up with its therapeutic benefits. While the Red Mind is the new normal, where we live at a frenetic pace, competing to accomplish our to-do lists and stay caffeinated; the Grey Mind is the burnt out state where our body and mind languish. Life is all about moving between the red and blue states, staying calm yet productive. He mentions current research in the field and what makes life on the blue marble unique! 


People and organisations are waking up to the benefits and “prescribing” Blue Mind, which means proximity to a river, a pool or anywhere in nature, or simply hearing recordings virtually. Taking a mindful shower or sitting near a fountain can be an instant pick-me-up for someone feeling low. However, next time you take a Blue Mind break, he recommends you take along a friend who may be feeling stuck in their Grey Mind!


Follow and share to grow the conversation.
