There’s a happy feeling when you get near a pool, and it turns out there’s a scientific reason behind it.

Marine Biologist Wallace J. Nichols wrote a best-selling book on the remarkable effects of water on our health and well-being. His book, “Blue Mind,” is also the scientific term associated with the peace water brings those who enjoy it. According to Nichols, Blue Mind is the mildly meditative state people fall into when they are near, in, under or on water. His research suggests that being in water reduces stress and anxiety and increases overall happiness.
