Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines, especially computer systems. It encompasses tasks such as learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, and language understanding. AI technologies are revolutionizing various fields, from healthcare to finance, by enabling machines to perform tasks that typically require human intelligence.
Older people and water-based outdoor activities: Ageing well.
1. Older People & Water-based
Outdoor Activities:
Ageing Well
Barbara Humberstone
Bucks New University
2. Summary
•This presentation will consider
the interconnections of
embodiment, water-based activity
wellbeing and ageing.
•It will draw on recent research
and theory on the senses and how
the body 'learns to be' in the
natural water environment.
•It will consider enjoyment,
pleasure and place as features of
wellbeing for older bodies
engaged in water-based outdoor
activities .
3. Over view
• Research on health & wellbeing of blue space
• Blue space and wellbeing older people.
• Physical activity in water space and embodiment (see
Foley) 4 themes
• Why do older people take part in water based activities
• Embodiment/pleasure-doing research (see summary)
• Methodologies- (auto) ethnographies
• Critiques- Response to critiques
• Embodiment-senses-place
• Narratives of physical bodies
• SeaVets –men windsurfing; SeaVets woman;
4. Significance of water –based activities
for health and wellbeing 1
• Bell, Phoenix, Lovell, Wheeler, B.W., (2015) Seeking
everyday wellbeing: the coast as a therapeutic landscape.
• Walking interviews :- how both green and blue spaces can
have a significant impact on physical, mental, and social
health in later life. Participants felt motivated to get out of
the house to exercise and enjoy the fresh air and
surroundings. These spaces promoted mental wellbeing, in
which experiences of nature provoked feelings of renewal,
restoration, and spiritual connectedness. They also
provided a space for multi-generational social interaction
and engagement, including planned activities with friends
and families, and impromptu social engagements with
neighbors. Finley et al (2015:104)
5. Significance of water –based activities
for health and wellbeing 2
• ‘Within health geography and applied public health
‘blue spaces’ (particularly sea, but also sky) are
increasingly associated with restorative potential. This
idea complements the well-researched focus on
healthy green space, with attention devoted ‘health-
enabling places and spaces’ where water has an
‘identifiable potential for the promotion of human
wellbeing’ (Foley and Kistemann, 2015)
• Coleman & Kearns (2015) gives therapeutic affect of
being near ocean for older people on Waiheki Island
where they argue memory is uplifting.
6. ‘More of the same is not enough’
Many people over 65 take part in water based
physical activities, many of these activities are
termed life-style, nature-based or adventure
sports, such as open water swimming or
windsurfing. These older people enjoy being on,
in or under the water.
7. Questions
• What is it about being in these blue spaces that
creates this sense of wellbeing and health?
• How can we understand what it is that older
people find differently enjoyable and have
pleasure in water-based physical activity?
• What inspires and enables older people to
engage in water –based physical activity as they
age?
9. Four themes of health and blue spaces
• In better uncovering how and why water spaces and places
matter for health and wellbeing, Foley and Kistemann,
(2015) identify four sub-themes for consideration, that
might contribute to more nuanced discussion;
• embodiment,
• intersubjectivity,
• activities
• meanings.
10. Emerging research
• Emerging research in the social sciences has
turned to exploring the senses and pleasure
(positive emotions) .
• ‘Pleasure’ has been a recent significant theme
in looking at physical activity and ageing well.
(Phoenix and Orr, 2014)
• Learning through enjoying physical /bodily
activities in the outdoors can have benefits.
(Humberstone, 2015)
11. Beyond consciousness? Affect
• The affective may be understood as a multi-web of
bodily systems which may facilitate embodied living
beings’ meaningful engagement with their
environments, each other and non-human worlds.
• A high degree of this functioning may be at a
subconscious and/or beyond consciousness /thought
and language
• As Thrift (2008, p. 252) points out, ‘[a]ffect is a
challenge to what we regard as the social because it
involves thinking about waves of influence which
depend on biology to an extent that is rarely
recognised or theorised in the social sciences’.
12. Pleasure
• Feelings of pain or pleasure or some quality in
between are the bed‐rock of our mind. We often
fail to notice this simple reality …. But there they
are, feelings of myriad emotions and related
states, the continuous musical line of our minds.
The unstoppable humming of the universal
melodies that only dies down when we go to
sleep, a humming that turns into all-out singing
when we are occupied by joy, or a mournful
requiem when sorrow takes over.
Damasio (2003: 3)
13. Pleasure / enjoyment linked to senses.
• Coveney and Bunton (2003) indicate that “pleasure might
be considered a motive for human action (or indeed
inaction) and is integral to understanding how humans
interact with each other and their environment in ways that
promote health or create disease” (p. 163).Pleasure is an
under-researched and under theorized concept within
health and health-related areas (Coveney and
Bunton,2003) and also in water-based physical activity and
ageing.
• Booth, (2009)“deafening silence” surrounding the subject
of pleasure in relation to human movement(p. 133).
14. Wellbeing
• Much research, particularly in the health related
areas, has focused on the negative of pleasure.
• Experiences of enjoyment and pleasure are a
central argument for maintaining people's habit
of health behaviours (Crossley, 2006).
• Thus ‘learning to be’ in the body in a water
environment might be considered to be pleasant
and enjoyable by the participant and provide for
further engagement and love and caring for the
outdoors ( or the opposite)
15. Embodied pleasure
• It is through our senses that we
engage with the world and
particularly make our relationships
with nature and the elements:
• Moonlit meadows, crickets chirping,
birds singing, snow crunching under
foot, the smell of the spring thaw,
summer sweetness, autumn decay, a
salty breeze, burning leaves, the
squish of mud, the sting of hot sand
and the cold of snow are just a few
among the plethora of sensory
images we experience while
outdoors. These sensations often tap
emotionally and spiritually uplifting
memories. (Consalvo, 1995, p. 2)
16. How does the body ‘learn to be’ physically
active?
• Very little research or evaluation has explored
bodily experience, the senses; how the body
‘learns to be’ in the natural environment,
particularly water.
• It is the way in which the whole body (body &
Mind) through the senses engages with the
environment which can be pleasant or
unpleasant
17. ‘Sense’ of self, embodiment, water
spaces
• Older people may construct a sense of
themselves and their environment
• single and collective understandings of self and
senses of place.
• Through embodied, sentient practices (such as
swimming, surfing, windsurfing SUPing, kayaking
and so forth),
• by way of the many senses, people encounter
natural water spaces and places affording
feelings and emotions
18. Physical activity and the older body:
embodiment-methodology
• Interpretative research, (Auto)-ethnography
(ethnography & autoethnography):
researching the active ‘ageing’ body .
• Tries to understand and make sense of and
interpret the embodied experiences of older
people engaged in physical activity.
19. Auto/ethnography/phenomenlogy
• Hammersley and
Atkinson, (1995) argue
that auto/ethnography is
similar to reflexive
ethnography;
• (see Humberstone, 2004).
The researcher is part of
the research process and
their actions and feelings
are part of the research
process
21. Critique
• Critiques from a number of
ethnographers :Delamont,
(2007), Atkinson, (2006)
• Comments in favour that -
not self indulgent : Sparkes
& Smith (2014)
• Connecting the personal to
the ‘political’ Anderson
(2006)
22. (Auto)-ethnography: researching
physical sea-based activities
• Seascapes; Shaped by the sea (Humberstone
& Brown, 2015) provides different water-
based physical activities eg surfing, sailing etc.
Tales of engagements with the sea . Through
the use of auto-ethnographic accounting,
scholars reflect on how the sea has shaped
their identity, belonging and connection.
23. (Auto)-ethnography as methodology
• Older people are seen as
‘other’ in much research on
older people. Many ‘Baby
boomers’ are academics still
undertaking research or semi-
retired people undertaking
research for interest & PhDs
• I am a committed recreational
windsurfer – over 30 years
• I have also been an
ethnographer for most of that
time ….
24. Embodied Pleasure
• Think about your own
pleasure of being in, on
or near water
• Feelings
• Senses
• Place
• How can this be (re)
presented?
• Narratives, picture ….
25. ‘More of the same is not enough’
• ‘Baby boomer’ –windsurfers-Narrative of
‘Kitty’
• It was Sunday and a pleasant day with a
steady South Westerly. Kitty , 66yrs old….was
determined to try out (her new board)…..
(Humberstone, 2011, p. 165)
26. Concluding remarks
• Older people’s voice significant
• (Auto)-ethnography important methodology
which may link personal to political
• Address research to exploring emotions and
consequently the senses ie embodiment
• Address place, the context of the feelings
(pleasure).
• Holistic/democratic approaches to engage none
habituated people/groups
• How do we evaluate the effectiveness of these
types of intervention in ways acceptable to
policy-makers?
