a great book! And definitely resonate with the concept of blue mind. I found this more than ever when I learned to scuba dive 7 years ago, and even more so now that I just got my advanced scuba cert and have been practicing /mindfulness in the interim period. There's just something so calming & peaceful. I think it can also be improved with the ocean and waves, which tend to be almost perfect timing for the ideal breathing rate to induce relaxation
