Golden Rule

You have likely heard of the standard “Golden Rule” of all time, “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” This is a great rule to live by and improves society as a whole. However, there is also a very specific golden rule when it comes to private scuba tours Maui. When learning to dive you want to remember the golden rule and that is to keep breathing normal and slowly, always remembering to exhale. You never want to stop breathing or hold your breath while you are diving.

If you hold your breath for an extended period of time while diving, you run the risk of serious lung complications. These complications can even result in your lungs bursting if you are not careful. The most serious issue occurs when air escapes directly into the capillaries that surround the lungs. Several factors that can affect lung issues when it comes to diving include asthma, bronchitis, cysts, tumors, and scar tissue.

There are several things you can do to avoid any lung complications while partaking in private scuba tours Maui. Remember to ascend slowly, particularly while you are learning. You should also remember to avoid diving while you are sick as this will greatly affect your lungs. You should never smoke but if you are going to start scuba diving now is certainly the time to quit! Remember we are always here to support safe diving techniques and to help make sure you learn the proper way to keep yourself safe out in the water so that you can have the thrill of a lifetime.
