Ever wonder why humans seem to gravitate towards the water no matter what we do? Turns out we have an innate attachment to bodies of water that dates back to the beginning of time, as explained by Dr. Wallace J Nichols, marine biologist and author of the book, 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. The benefits of water don’t stop at just hydration it offers so much more that us humans need to be aware of. Rather than using mediation for mental health disorders and other illnesses, the simple presence of water may be what we all need instead. Enjoy this episode of Health Simple Radio!
