Sleep Better
If you have ever listened to a sleep playlist or sleep machine, you know that the sounds of nature and water are beneficial. Focusing on a particular sound and letting everything else in your mind melt away, can help you fall and stay asleep. The added oxygen the river and trees supply will also help you sleep better.
Stay Calmer
Bodies of water have a natural calming effect on most people. Serotonin levels balance and we are able to calm ourselves. Most people head to the water when they want to relax - the beach, the lake, the rolling river - your brain and body know it's time to relax.

Breathe Deep
One of the many benefits of living within The Reserve on the Saluda River and not a largely populated city like Columbia, is the fresh air, nature and serenity they provide. (Don't forget that our community is very convenient to the city of Columbia, however.) The river contains added oxygen and moisture as well as a large dose of negative ions that increase your body’s ability to absorb that oxygen.
Get Inspired
No one knows why, but you tend to be more creative when surrounded by nature. The Earth and all of it's wonders are magnified. Regardless of the medium, writers, painters, musicians can all find that their creativity is sparked by a flowing river.
Whatever reason you find beneficial, the health benefits of living by the Saluda River can not be understated.
