ZEN HARMONY DIVING

The world’s oceans and seas are the lifeblood of our Earth, covering more than 70 percent of the planet’s surface, driving weather, regulating temperature, and ultimately supporting all living organisms. We hold our Earth’s Oceanic Water World in the highest regard, it being home to millions of marine species, flora and fauna, most of which remain unknown. This undiscovered wealth of the Oceans may hold the means for our sustainable future and the welfare of future generations. In the 21 st century, the two biggest challenges in the world comprise, firstly the emerging burden of the ailments and diseases of modern lifestyles and secondly the escalating pollution and degradation of the environment, 70% of which comprises the marine world.

Zen Harmony Zentsu Relaxation and Rejuvenation
Zentsu, an intense relaxation technique practiced in the shallow portion of the swimming pool, floating on your back, supported by a Yoga and Meditation therapist. This surface floatation on your back lasts for some fifteen minutes with eyes closed and meditative focus on breathing. Following this, for another ten minutes you will float face down and breathing with a full face snorkeling mask. This technique, developed at Zen, has turned out to be the most effective in enhancing total relaxation and release of physical and psychological tensions. A number of our scuba diving guests have described the Zentsu experience as bringing back the deep and secure memories of the first nine months of life in the womb as well the beauty of one’s birth and childhood.
