Here are the top physical and psychological reasons YOU should get beach therapy:
Relaxation
The calming effects of the waves and sun make the beach the best place to go when you need to relieve stress. You can relax and close your eyes while listening to the soothing sound of waves melting your stress away. Take in a deep breath of salty ocean air, feel the warmth of the sun rays on your skin, and notice the sand between your toes.
Exercise
In addition to being the perfect place for relaxation, the beach gives you a wonderful opportunity to exercise freely. Enjoy a great view and plenty of space as you go for a run along the shoreline, practice yoga, or take a swim in the ocean. Bike riding is also a great way to exercise by the beach. The Wildwoods offer a scenic, beach-side bike route that runs nearly the entire length of the five-mile island.
Daily Dose of Vitamin D
Get some Vitamin Sea and Vitamin D! Of course, sunshine lifts our mood and energy levels, but it also helps us maintain healthy bones and boost our immune systems. Talk about a win-win. Don’t forget that sunscreen if you plan to stay longer though!
Self-Reflection
Being in a laid back, relaxed state is an excellent time to do some self-reflection. Take a walk on the beach or sit back and listen to the crashing waves while you gather your thoughts.
The sun, sand and surf do the mind and body good. So, next time you’re feeling stressed, head to the Wildwoods beach for some quick relief.
