Swimming combines the Daoist principles of "wu wei", or living in a state of natural flow, with that of being in harmony with nature.

The repetitive motions and rhythmic breathing of swimming can enable you to enter into a meditative, harmonious state of mind.

So try going for a fresh-water swim as a means of spiritual purification. If possible, try doing so in a lake, natural river, stream, or spring.
