Freediving<\/a> is a sport that opens a pathway to many abilities that elevate our mind and body. It\u2019s a sport that plunges us into the very depths of the ocean with nothing but our mind and body. Immersing ourselves in an environment that is not in our element allows our bodies to adapt in ways that benefit our health and overall wellbeing.<\/p>\n

Relieves Stress<\/h2>\n

A skill that all freedivers must master is being able to dedicate their focus and attention to slow down their heart rate and manage their breathing. By focusing on the present situation, your anxieties and problems seemingly dissolve \u2013 you might even discover new ways to see those problems, from a different perspective, quite literally.<\/p>\n

More Aware of Our Wellbeing<\/h2>\n

Freediving<\/a> involves carefully managing your energy, your mind, and your body. Every small movement matters when you\u2019re underwater. Therefore, you develop a sensitivity and awareness of your mind and body, as well as knowing what your body is truly capable of. Additionally, you\u2019ll also develop confidence in yourself and increase mental clarity as you focus only on your body and surroundings, melting away all your worries.<\/p>\n

Opportunity to See Marine Life<\/h2>\n

With freediving, you\u2019ll be able to witness marine life truly in their natural habitats. Since it\u2019s just you, without any scuba diving equipment, the experience will be more intimate and genuine. Marine life will also be less likely to get startled since you\u2019ll blend right in with the environment.<\/p>\n

Enhances Blood Oxygen Management<\/h2>\n

The human body is incredibly adept at making changes to our environment. The more frequent you freedive, the more efficient your body will become at using oxygen. Freedivers are taught a natural reflex found in all mammals known as the mammalian dive reflex. <\/em>This reflex is a physiological response that engages when our bodies are submerged underwater. Three changes occur, first it slows the heart rate down by 10%-30%, then narrows the blood vessels to ensure vital organs receive enough oxygen, and during deeper dives, the spleen also releases extra blood cells to protect the body from the increased water pressure surrounding our bodies.<\/p>\n

To conclude, what did you think of the health benefits of freediving? As you can tell, there are real tangible benefits for freedivers. Are you ready to take the plunge? Reach out to us at Asia Divers<\/a>, and we\u2019ll help you take the first step on your journey to dive and explore the ocean.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
