There is no doubt that the luxury of lying on a beach for a few days’ holiday can be just the much needed escape from the busy lifestyle. However, according to research, there are genuine psychological benefits associated with a short spent beside the sea. A walk on the beach has more impact on emotional well-being of a person than a stroll in the park.
The Infographic titled as “Scientific Advantages Of Beach Holidays” explains the various scientific reasons to consider a beach holiday. Some of these include the following:
Spending time beside the sea helps rheumatoid arthritis patients to feel better: The minerals in the ocean can help reduce symptoms for those with rheumatoid arthritis.
Sunlight helps to minimise depression: It has been scientifically proven that sunshine makes people happier. With increased sunlight, human serotonin levels increase having a positive impact on stress and sleep.
Sunshine is a great source of Vitamin D: The WHO recommends 5 to 15 minutes of sunlight on arms, hands and face atleast 2 times a week. Vitamin D is necessary for our bodies to absorb Calcium and Phosphorus, which enhances natural growth and strong bones.
