Karma Waters | Jeff Allen | TEDxTruro

Like many who have spent time in the Forces, Jeff found himself going through a rough patch when re-entering civilian life. Seeking a new direction, Jeff decided to follow his desires and ended up circumnavigating Japan in a sea kayak. Jeff’s talk explores the healing nature of fresh air, exercise and the sea, with stunning photography of his adventures. He also tells us how we can all use the natural environment to recharge and recover from the many traumas life can send our way. Jeff Allen is based in Falmouth, Cornwall. An expedition paddler and sea kayaker, he’s explored many remote coastal environments around the globe, including Norway, Alaska, Canada, Japan, Antarctica. Closer to home, he’s ventured to Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Jeff now earns a living from training and guiding. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
