Today, most of us are glued to a screen, and when it is not for professional purposes, it is to check the latest post. We are enjoying an advanced technology that no society has ever known, but it has consequences. One of the negative consequences includes our posture. We are so used to bend over our screens that our back are aching, and we are losing muscles in our core. Let’s not forget the shoulder muscles which are aching, and the neck is not even to be mentioned !
For some of us, the solution is easy : to get a job which allows the practice of sport. But we are not equally gifted, and becoming a sport coach is not a possibility for everyone. There are several solutions to contemplate. To work and then to find a place still opened where to practice a sport, or to look for a job at a Yacht Crew Agency located in the vicinity of a pleasant harbour.
Swimming in the sea is one of the best sports.
Working on a yacht like any job implying catering for people requires a good posture. When swimming, all the muscles are involved, and the core and back muscles are relaxed and toned. In general, swimming, even in a pool, is recommended to combat stress. Why ? Because it forced the swimmer to focus on his breath. The focus on breath is a way to combat stress, because it sends the message to the brain to relax. While you focus on breath, you are not letting other thoughts about stressful matter invading your brain.
Another positive factor for swimming is the quality of the workout. As we indicated previously, a good number of muscles are working all at once, also it is a gentle work-out. Swimming in the sea is a plus for people sensitive to the chlorine of the swimming pools. Let’s imagine you are working by the seaside or on a yacht. Anytime during a break or a quiet, peaceful evening, it would be possible for you to enjoy all the benefits of a maritime environment. It would be possible to swim calmly and develop a sense of ease. The infinity of the ocean soothes anyone. The feeling to be at ease in this infinity, to relax and calm tensions, is a fantastic way to help you find quality sleep. The colour blue is already calming, the quietness of the surroundings and the calming rhythm of the waves all contribute to combat stress. The minerals of the water are excellent for the skin. It helps to rejuvenate the cells and provides for a free cleanser !
The seaweeds are also beneficial to the body. It is also important to mention, during the season, it is a good idea for allergic people to pollens to enjoy swimming in the sea. The purity of the sea breeze will clean the respiratory system of all the remains of the pollens. Since these remains are the cause of the allergies peaks, it is important to clean the nose, the lungs of all the tiny remains of the different pollens. It may even help to prevent asthma in some cases.
