There is a reason a week by the water leaves people looser, calmer, and sleeping better before they even notice it happening. This traces what the coast actually does to the body: the effect of horizon views on a busy mind, the specific pull of rhythmic sound, the blue-space research most people never hear about, and practical ways to bring that same ease into a landlocked life. Grounded, unhurried, and genuinely useful.
