Claire Walsh : Champion Freediver Ready To Be Real by Síle Seoige
-
- Health & Fitness
Topics covered : Long Covid, breathwork, freediving, mental illness, therapy, self-limiting beliefs, reinvention and overcoming.
This week I speak to champion freediver Claire Walsh.
Originally from Leixlip, she currently lives in Bray with her partner Boudy and she’s been freediving for 6 years now.
She’s competitive and driven, but there’s also a beautiful gentleness about her that allows her to connect to her breath and to the water and achieve what she has already, which is incredible.
She can hold her breath underwater for an impressive 5 minutes 59 seconds and she can dive to 59 meters on one breath alone.
A fan of therapy and regular self-care habits like sea swimming, mindfulness and meditation, this is a fascinating listen as she covers so much from her love and respect of the water from an early age, to struggling with her mental health in her 20’s, and she also talks about her other passions in life; music, drama and performance.
I was hanging onto her every word and I think you will too.
