For almost all of us almost all the time, there is one big thing dragging us down—gravity. But if you want to take a break from the struggle, there is one reasonable way to access a moment of balance and buoyancy—scuba diving. The weightlessness and freedom of being underwater are unlike anything else.⁠ ⁠ The pressure of gravity is tough on some people’s bodies. Disabilities of all kinds can make attempting physical activity daunting, and the challenges presented by scuba diving, like all of the heavy gear, can feel overwhelming. But there is a dedicated practice that allows anyone to overcome those challenges and access the weightless feeling and floating wonder of being under the ocean: adaptive scuba diving.⁠ ⁠ Check our link in bio for more on adaptive diving programs and the transformative impact it’s had on divers with disabilities. ⁠ ⁠ 📸: Elaina Garcia/Catalina Island Mermaids/PADI/Professional Association of Diving Instructors ⁠ ⁠ #CatalinaIsland #catalinaislands #island #cali...
