Swimming has always been a natural relaxation for me. A recent conversation with Pamela Quinn made me aware that I might actually be in meditation stage while swimming. I have all the effects of it: disconnect, calm and clear mind, ideas and solutions coming naturally, loosing track of time, happy gratefulness feeling that "everything will be OK", and more... So this morning jumping in the pool I set my mind to disconnect from my technique, and just observe all the thoughts that might come to me... WOW... Not only that I didn't realise how 30 minutes of swimming passed, but as you can see from my Garmin Vivoactive screenshot my SWOLF was 25 which is my personal record this year. This number represents the SUM of the strokes you make and the time to swim 25 yards ( in my case). I wonder if anybody else has been trying or experiencing similar effects. Will keep experimenting on that. What an amazing feeling afterwards...
Have a great Tuesday!
