Freediving teaches you something rare in the modern world: the ability to quiet your mind on purpose. Below the surface, there’s nothing to fix, no roles to perform. Just breath, presence, and the blue.

🌊💧Why a Daily Face Wash Works (According to Science): My Water Story💧🌊

When I was a child, my Dad taught me to wash my face with cold water as soon as I got out of bed to “freshen up”.

Dad didn’t have the science behind the effects of facial immersion but a lifetime of experience and a will to want to impart good habits to his children. ❤️🤗 Thank you and rest in peace, beloved, Dad.

As a child, my ritual of breath-holding with my face in cold-water in the bathroom sink, was private, intuitive and helped me to self-regulate. Of course, children need good supervision near water, especially while breath-holding, but my intuition never told me to push my limits. The goal was to simply feel better.

The habit never left me and my connection to the water continues to this day to help me regulate mind and body in an ever-changing world.
🌏🧘🏻‍♀️🧠🫁

Blueback Freediving & Yoga is the school I formed over ten years ago to help share my lifetime of knowledge about the ocean, breath, and wellbeing.

Every morning, a splash of cold water across your face does more than wake you up — it activates one of the most powerful reflexes your body has:

✨ The Mammalian Diving Reflex

Cold water on your forehead, eyes and cheeks stimulates the trigeminal nerve and triggers the same physiological response we use in freediving.

Science shows this reflex:
• Lowers heart rate (activates vagus nerve)
• Shifts your body out of stress mode
• Boosts calm and emotional regulation
• Improves focus and alertness

It’s your nervous system’s “reset button.”

❄️ A Mini Dose of Cold-Water Therapy

Cold exposure increases noradrenaline, a neurotransmitter linked to mood, energy and mental clarity.

Just a few seconds of cold water to the face can:
• Lift your mood
• Reduce anxiety
• Clear mental fog
• Improve your capacity to handle stress

This is why cold-face immersion is used clinically in emergency emotion-regulation techniques.

🌬️ Why Your Body Loves It

Cold water momentarily constricts blood vessels, reduces puffiness, and brings fresh circulation back to the skin as you warm up.
But the real benefit is deeper:
You’re improving your autonomic flexibility — your system’s ability to switch between “stress” and “rest” states with ease.

🌊 In Other Words:

Cold water to the face is a simple, free, scientifically grounded way to regulate your nervous system — the same physiology that underpins safe, mindful freediving.

At Blueback, we call this:
“Calming the sea inside.”
