Bathysmed® Protocol
The Bathysmed® protocol is an evidence-based methodology that engages the mind-body in the weightless underwater environment to melt away the noise of worldly stressors and reconnect with the self.
Created by Vincent Meurice, it combines principles of sophrology with the natural wonders of scuba-diving to facilitate a state of deep meditation through bodymind equilibration.

Immerse yourself in the underwater world - as your breath and body equilibrates in the present, so too will your mind - connecting you back to nature and self.
On a personal note…
You are about to participate in a diving for wellness retreat. If you have never dived before, perfect! The program caters for people with zero experience. Each dive evolves “with you” and the first dives are very shallow to give you time to find your bearings and become accustomed to new sensations.
Breathing through a regulator is much easier than breathing through a snorkel. Going underwater with a scuba tank is easier than hiking or jogging.
Diving allows you to move with ease in a weightless environment and tune into your breathe, harmonising body and mind. You may feel anxious initially, and may take you 2-3 dives to feel completely at ease. This initial fear is completely normal, and even beneficial in achieving the objectives of this program.
Given the unique nature of this offering, you are likely to have further questions – please do not hesitate to get in touch for a chat or email simonl@apogeemsc.com.
