Mermaids Marianna and Lola Peninsula Rockpool Photoshoot
Hair swaying like fronds of kelp and mermaid tails that fin like the fish that curiously watch them. This is the beauty of a mermaid photoshoot in the sun drenched coastal rockpools of the Mornington Peninsula on the south-eastern coast of Australia.
On this sunny Spring day Marianna Mermaid and Mermaid Lola immersed into the beauty that only the coast facing the Southern Ocean provides. A powerful backdrop with raw millions-years old cliffs and rock platforms that have formed with the relentless urging of the waves that surge all the way from Antarctica. It’s here that mermaids and sirens of the sea return to the ocean and reclaim their mystical powers.
Finding the Source That’s Never Enough
Limitations: Finding the Source That’s Never Enough
Are we ever enough, or do the thoughts of never being enough intrude upon the enjoyment of the opportunity to live our own way, fluid and free?
In my work as a cycling guide and breathwork coach, it’s often the undercurrent in people’s and athlete’s minds that is the source of the discontent. And nothing at all to do with ability, skills, riding or the performance being undertaken which is abundantly present.
How Do You Get Warm Quickly After A Cold Water Immersion?
How Do You Get Warm Quickly After A Cold Water Immersion?
As a professional freediving instructor and breathwork coach, I find there’s plenty to be excited and interested about when it comes to cold water immersion in the sea, plunge pools, bathing in icy river streams and the rejuvenating feelings that are so effervescent after a cold water wild swim. But something that doesn’t get much talked about is, well, what do you do once you’re out of the cold water? How do you recover after a cold water immersion? And how do you warm up quickly after a cold plunge? Here’s the answer to how I get warm.

Seachanging – Shiny Black Shoes to Freediving Fins

Whale Tales: Barnacle’s Kelp Karmacoma
Last year’s Humpback Whale southern migration winner, Barnacle, actually there are no ‘winners’ because there’s no prizes. But in this day and age of supporting everyone as a winner, we’re going against the grain and calling him a winner anyway. Well, because he was first.
Back to Barnacle – a seasoned migrator. He’s finished 10 of these 10,000 kilometre events in the last 10 years.
Comfort Buried Deep Under the Fear of Breathlessness
The Fear of Breathlessness.
Rising tension in the chest, the mind tightening, the clam up of the body, the building resistance to all that is physically present in front of our eyes and the mental swirls that seem to magnify the stress of the moment.
To face our fears. Looking inward to Self. Finding peace and comfort freediving on a single breath.
