Why You Should Be At the Beach

Private beach at Ayana Resort, Bali

Relax, smell the salt in the air, the sea breeze, listen to the crashing waves, Let's be honest, everyone wants to be at the beach, and here I am, telling you all, that's exactly where you should be.

To clear your mind, to find inspiration, or to do some soul searching. The vastness of the sea has always intrigued me; the whole world that exists under water is much bigger than we could ever imagine. But at the beach, you're only looking at just the surface.

When you feel like you've hit rock bottom in your life, go to the beach. I hope the waves soothe you, and the sand reminds you that there's much more for you to discover. There's a bigger world down there than there is up here.

At the same time, I find the beach to be so humbling. Like the rest of nature, it treats everyone the same, no matter your race, religion, beliefs, or preferences. It's incredibly neutral, nature is. The beach in particular, is so open to the sky, blank. Vast, both around you and above you, I hope the beach calms you, and teaches you that your dreams are limitless.
