Nine baths in a row during September protect yourself from colds throughout the year

🌊💪🤔 Did you know that nine baths in a row, of at least nine waves, during September, protect yourself from colds throughout the year? Yeah, dive in! Actually, in September the water and atmospheric temperatures tend to be even.

🏊‍♀️✨ The old tradition in the North of Spain says that for nine days, you have to enjoy nine baths, in nine different places during the ninth month and whatever the weather.

👵💙 Grandma Sita’s tips:
*Bathing in the sea stimulates the body’s lymphatic system, which helps to eliminate toxins better.
*Sea water always has a temperature lower than that of the body, which improves blood circulation.
*Remember when autumn begins to appear, the sea becomes a recommendable source of health.

🏖️ Reduce, reuse, and recycle the things you take to the beach. This helps minimize the amount of trash brought to the beach and reduces the potential for it to end up in the ocean.

📍 Zarautz Beach, Basque Country (northern Spain).
