Surf Therapy at Ocean Heart Healing
Discover the healing power of the ocean and the transformative benefits of surf therapy. Guided by Stephen Earnhart—an avid surfer and experienced facilitator—this unique offering combines the grounding rhythm of the waves with proven therapeutic techniques to help you release, reconnect, and rebuild.
Why Surf Therapy?
Research has shown that time spent in the ocean isn’t just relaxing—it’s deeply restorative for both body and mind. The natural flow of the waves helps regulate the nervous system, lower stress levels, and enhance overall emotional well-being. For those recovering from trauma, facing life transitions, or simply seeking clarity, surf therapy offers a fresh perspective and a powerful sense of empowerment.
Evidence-Based Benefits Include:
Stress Relief & Emotional Regulation: The rhythmic movement of the ocean and the physical activity of surfing naturally calm the mind, reducing anxiety and promoting emotional balance.
Enhanced Resilience & Confidence: Learning to navigate waves mirrors life’s challenges. Overcoming fears and building skills in the water translates to increased self-trust and confidence on land.
Improved Mental Focus & Presence: Surfing demands presence and awareness. This mindful engagement helps quiet mental chatter and fosters a deeper connection to the present moment.
Community & Connection: Surf therapy often involves group sessions, creating a supportive environment where participants can connect, share experiences, and feel less alone in their journeys.
