Whether it's a vacation or a honeymoon, many people's first choice is to go to an island. Sun, sand, waves... A simple beach seems to be filled with countless happy elements. A variety of water activities such as surfing and diving can release our nervous body and mind, and even just lying on the beach and listening to the sound of the waves is enough to make us feel good.

When unhappy, many people want to go to the beach for a walk. Looking at the endless ocean and listening to the sound of the waves hitting the beach, the originally messy thoughts will gradually become clear. Does the sea really have a magical power?

Stressed urbanites have been fleeing to green spaces in recent years as green spaces have been shown to have positive effects on physical and mental health, but the benefits of "blue spaces" (which include oceans and coastlines, as well as rivers and lakes) have not been reaped Good publicity, but the scientific community actually has a consensus for at least ten years: staying at the seaside is also good for people's body and mind.

First of all, the sea is endless, and the vast field of view will reduce people's pressure. An empty and empty environment will make people feel very comfortable, thereby reducing psychological pressure. In addition, beautiful scenery can also make people feel happy, because the sea is usually blue, and blue usually provides a deep, vast, calm space, which makes people calm.

Secondly, the waves are continuous, and the sound of the waves belongs to "generalized white noise", which means long-term stable noise, which can make people relax. So now many people like to listen to some natural sounds when they fall asleep at night, such as the sound of waves crashing on the shore.

Watching the sea can help oxygenate the body. The prefrontal lobe is responsible for feelings and emotions. Scientists have found that the sound of the ocean stimulates the frontal lobe of the brain, helping to improve emotional health!

In addition, the body absorbs the negative ions released by the waves, allowing the body to absorb more oxygen and regulate serotonin. Serotonin is an anxiety-controlling substance that induces feelings of peace and calm, so looking at the sea can bring happiness. Studies have also found that when we sunbathe on the beach, the heat affects the endocrine system, releasing endorphins (the chemicals that make you feel happy after eating chocolate), making you happy.
