🔴 🌊 Take a moment to breathe in the calm of the ocean. Wherever you are sit up tall, lift your chin and imagine yourself by the ocean. Feel the breeze on your face. Smell the salt in the air. Feel the sand beneath your feet. Hear the rhythmic ebb and flow of the ocean waves. As you slowly inhale watch the waves draw back away from you and into the depths of the ocean. Hold the breath for a moment. Now slowly exhale and imagine the waves gently tumbling back towards you until they reach your feet. Feel the coolness of the water around your ankles. Repeat this breathing cycle whenever you need to clear your mind and soothe your spirit.

🟠 🌊 Take a moment to think about the last time you ate something from the ocean. What was it? Where was it from? How did it taste? Is there anything else you’ve always wanted to try?

🟡 🌊 Take a moment to imagine you’re sitting by the ocean with someone. Who is it? What time of day is it? What are you talking about?

🟢 🌊 Take a moment to think if you could be any animal in the ocean, which would you choose?

🔵 🌊 Take a moment to learn about The Ocean Cleanup, an incredible non-profit organisation aiming to remove 90% of the floating plastic in the world’s oceans by 2040. In the past ten years they have already removed around 16,030,713 kg of trash from the ocean. Their next phase of the cleanup starts this September 6th in San Francisco, follow them on socials for more information.

🟣 🌊 Take a moment to think about ocean views around the world. Which have you been to and which are still on your list to visit?

Take another deep breath. Hold it. Exhale. Smile. The ocean, like life, has its tides of ebb and flow. It faces storms and enjoys moments of tranquility. And, just as with ourselves, it possesses a depth and strength we often overlook. Whatever this week may bring, remember you have the ability to navigate through it all. Pause, focus on the horizon, and take it one wave at a time 🌊
