A thalassophile is someone who loves the ocean. Whether we depend on it for happiness, relaxation, a livelihood, a home, or for nourishment, some people simply must be near the sea.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>All life on planet Earth started in the ocean<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It\u2019s no wonder there is something about the ocean that draws and fascinates us. It is the most omnipresent substance on Earth and along with air the primary ingredient for supporting life as we know it. All life on planet Earth started in the ocean, and the ocean is still part of all life. The proportions of the elements potassium, sodium and calcium in our salty blood are similar to those in sea water. The oceans runs through our veins. Wallace J. Nichols, a marine biologist, introduced the term \u2018blue mind\u2019, by which he refers to the immeasurable sense of peace that we humans feel around water. He believes that we all have a blue mind, a mildly meditative state characterized by calm, peacefulness, unity, and a sense of general happiness and satisfaction with life in the moment. This portraits series Thalassophiles is part of the larger <a href=\"https:\/\/eefjeludwig.com\/photography\/blue-mind-ongoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">project \u2018Blue Mind\u2019<\/a>, an ongoing visual investigative project about the influence of the ocean on the wellbeing on human beings.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ola Schamber<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ericeiramag.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Ola_2-e1588952577785.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-38350 aligncenter colorbox-38348\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ericeiramag.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Ola_2-e1588952577785.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"1050\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<strong>\u2018I gave up everything to move to the seaside<\/strong>.
