TAKE A CRUISE, IT’S GOOD FOR THE HEALTH
Need a mental, physical, even spiritual boost? Go on a cruise. Francesca Syz explains.
IT’S OFFICIAL, a relaxing holiday is good for you, offering a mental, physical, and even spiritual boost. We’re clearly all in need of a break; according to The American Institute of Stress, 83% of US workers suffer from work-related stress at a cost to industry of $300bn per year.
While the mental and physical benefits of spending time in the countryside have been well documented (it is said to reduce stress, lift spirits, and keep the blood pumping), the benefits of water – being in it, on it, or near it – are only now being truly recognized. A growing body of scientific research suggests time spent in “blue space” is even more beneficial than being surrounded by green nature.
“There is enough science to show that water, in all its forms, helps us relax and achieve a sense of calm,” says Wallace J Nichols, marine biologist and author of Blue Mind, a groundbreaking book about the healing power of the sea. “It boosts our creativity, connects us to each other, to ourselves, to nature, and gives us a whole bunch of other emotional wellness benefits that follow from feeling calmer.”
So, there has never been a better excuse to take a cruise. As well as the obvious benefits of relaxing while your luxurious ship delivers you from one amazing destination to the next, providing enriching experiences along the way, we know now that being surrounded by ocean has positive physical effects.
For one, the pressures of everyday life often result in elevated levels of the stress hormones cortisol and epinephrine, which suppress the immune system. A holiday at sea offers the chance to breathe fresh, largely unpolluted air, which aids sleep and energy levels. Also, the sea’s crashing waves drench the air with negatively charged ions. A report in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences found that the presence of
ions improves psychological health, productivity, and overall wellbeing. Meanwhile, researchers from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, at the University of California in San Diego, discovered that, at night, the ocean acts as an air filter for nitrogen oxides, absorbing pollutants from the atmosphere that create the global-warming agent ozone, providing a vital buffer against the impact of climate change.
Catherine Schmitt, science writer and author of A Coastal Companion: A Year in the Gulf of Maine from Cape Cod to Canada, says: “Just looking at the ocean activates opiate receptors in the brain, releasing dopamine and its rush of reward. According to research, experiencing the wonder of natural beauty might decrease the inflammation that contributes to heart failure, depression and autoimmune disease.”
Added to this are the benefits of “awe”, of which water is a top source on Earth. Awe moves us emotionally to consider our part in something greater and is believed to encourage social interaction, bringing individuals closer to each other, and make us more generous, empathetic and compassionate. Water, in all its forms, is a top source of awe on Earth and what could be more awe-inspiring than being surrounded by endless ocean?
“A cruise is unlike any other holiday,” says Nichols. “Seeing the geography, noticing where you are in a vast body of water. It can give you a bit of perspective on the things that are bearing down on you. People go to the edge of the ship and it can make them feel small and insignificant, but also makes their problems seem even smaller.” ✦
