El mar no es una frontera
Esta afirmación de Jacques Mayol resuena totalmente con la visión y el alma de Just The Sea.
Para mi la conexión con el mar, el origen de la creación de Just the Sea, viene determinada por varios hitos que cito cronológicamente;
Mi nacimiento junto a la costa atlántica. Jacques Cousteau con sus aventuras a bordo del Calypso durante mi infancia_no me perdía ningún programa y coleccionaba todos los fascículos con diapositivas como un gran tesoro_. Mi inicio en la vela ligera a los siete años. La película El Gran Azul, de Luc Besson 1988 _ que tuve la fortuna de ver en un cine de Burdeos a mis quince años, justo cuando se estrenó_ y luego descubrir la apasionante y enigmática figura del hombre cuya vida inspiró dicha película, Jacques Mayol.
La chispa que unió todo y lo convirtió en Just the Sea fue mi iniciación en un camino de vida más consciente mediante el acercamiento a la filosofía y meditación zen.
Todo esto para contextualizar mi recomendación de película para este verano:
“Dolphin Man”, el documental realizado en 2017 por Lefteris Charitos sobre la increíble historia de Jacques Mayol, el primer hombre capaz de sumergirse a 100 metros sin respiración artificial y que revolucionó el buceo libre mediante la introducción de técnicas de yoga y meditación zen.
Pues sí, es increíble y fascinante. Jacques Mayol es un personaje auténtico y, como cualquier ser humano, con sus luces y sus sombras, con una profunda espiritualidad y una visión de la vida, el mar, que merece muchísimo la pena conocer.
Una historia y un personaje que te atrapa, te sumerge y te deja sintiendo, pensando durante mucho tiempo después, sobre el mar, nuestra existencia, la conexión con la naturaleza interior y exterior, de la que todo y todos formamos parte.
“Dolphin Man” es un disfrute para los sentidos, alimento para el alma y la consciencia sobre nuestra íntima conexión con el mar.
Si ya has visto esta joya de documental toma esta recomendación como una señal recordatorio para volver a disfrutarlo.

The sea is not a border
This statement by Jacques Mayol totally resonates with the vision and soul of Just The Sea.
For me, the connection with the sea, the origin of the creation of Just the Sea, is determined by several milestones that I cite chronologically; my birth along the Atlantic coast, Jacques Cousteau with his adventures aboard the Calypso during my childhood_I didn’t miss any program and I collected all the fascicles with slides like a great treasure_, my start in dinghy sailing at the age of seven, the film The Big Blue, by Luc Besson 1988 _ which I had the fortune to see in a Bordeaux cinema when I was fifteen, just when it was released_ and then discover the exciting and enigmatic figure of the man whose life inspired that film, Jacques Mayol. The spark that brought all of this together and made it into Just the Sea was my initiation into a more conscious life path through an approach to Zen philosophy and meditation.
All this to contextualize my movie recommendation for this summer:
“Dolphin Man”, the documentary made in 2017 by Lefteris Charitos about the incredible story of Jacques Mayol, the first man able to dive 100 meters without artificial respiration and who revolutionized free diving by the introduction of yoga techniques and zen meditation.
Well yes, it is incredible and fascinating. Jacques Mayol is an authentic character and, like any human being, with his lights and shadows, with a deep spirituality and a vision of life, the sea, which he is very worth knowing.
A story and a character that catches you, immerses you and leaves you feeling, thinking for a long time afterwards, about the sea, our existence, the connection with the interior and exterior nature, of which everything and everyone is a part.
This documentary is an enjoyment for the senses, food for the soul and awareness of our intimate connection with the sea.
If you have already seen this documentary gem, take this recommendation as a reminder to enjoy it again.
As soon as you watch it, you can share your impressions with us in comments. Nice to read you!
Enjoy The Sea Side of Life!
