Safety first
Every practice in this course fits entirely within your existing agency standards, ratios and dive plan. Slow, continuous breathing only — never breath-holding, skip-breathing or hypoventilation on scuba. No mindfulness exercise during descents, ascents or gas management, and any diver may call the dive at any time. Leadership scope here is non-clinical: nothing in MD-3 is therapy, diagnosis or medical assessment. Reviewed by the Safety & Dive Medicine Board.
