The Dhaka Times Desk For some, travel means only the sea. What effect does being swept away by the sea's salt water, roaring and endless waves really have on the mind?
Close to hundreds of studies around the world have shown that being close to nature has positive effects on the mind and body. To keep the mind healthy, doctors also recommend reducing 'screen time' and increasing 'green time'. Which is especially helpful in overcoming stress, anxiety or depression. But recently this idea has changed a bit. New research suggests that 'blue spaces' are more beneficial than 'green time' for improving mental health. In other words, sea, lake or lake water is more effective than nature's green plants, forest. Does the stream of water help to carry away the accumulated pebbles in the gray corner of the mind?
Psychologist Debsheela Bose's comment on this is, "If you spend more time with nature, you can be stress-free. But in this case water is more important. The reason is its superiority. Incessant roaring of the sea is heard but the mind is calm. Many can find meaning in a rhythmless life by tuning in to the undulating rhythm of the undulating waves.”
We know that a small child needs to be patted on the back or body in a certain rhythm when going to sleep. The monotony of that rhythm calms their mind. And then sleep fell in both eyes. He expressed hope that the same rhythms in the ocean can also cover the wounds in the brain. Not only the mind but also the body is quite good in the climate there. And when stress is reduced, blood sugar levels, high blood pressure and hormonal balance are maintained.
However, many are afraid of losing themselves in the depth or vastness of the sea. Psychologists think, “This matter also depends a lot on the individual's likes and dislikes. Also, if one has bad memories of water, that person may not like the ocean. The economic aspect is also important in traveling again. But if you want to improve your mind, whether you go to the sea, the mountains, the forest or the riverside, you will not get any results if you do not remove yourself from the worldly demands, social media, communication system for those few days.
