Diving and the value of life: a lesson from the depths

When you hold your breath in the depths you realize the value of every breath.

The air we inhale without thinking becomes underwater the most precious thing. This realization changes your view of everything you take for granted.

The value of breathing

After diving you sometimes stop to give thanks for a deep breath. Simple, but deep.

The value of movement

When you float freely in the water and move in three dimensions you feel the value of a sound body able to move.

Diving teaches you gratitude from a place you do not expect.
