June is World Ocean Month
Experience Ocean Wisdom
30 Days of Ocean Affirmations and Wisdom
At Betancourt Group, we believe in the power of storytelling to deepen our connection to the natural world. The ocean holds some of the most powerful and awe-inspiring stories on Earth.
June is World Ocean Month, a crucial time to reflect on the ocean’s vital role in sustaining life on Earth. This year’s World Oceans Day theme on June 8th, “Wonder: Sustaining What Sustains Us,” invites us to rediscover the ocean not just as a resource but as a source of wonder, healing, and insight.
We created Ocean Wisdom as a quiet, thoughtful space to connect with the sea one reflection at a time.
The ocean is full of lessons. It teaches patience, resilience, and the beauty of constant change. Modern science continues to confirm what many cultures have long known: proximity to the ocean can support mental health, reduce stress, and inspire awe that enhances well-being. This digital experience is designed to be a daily moment of connection, offering a rotating selection of poetic affirmations and cultural ocean wisdom throughout June.
Ocean Wisdom isn’t spiritual or strictly scientific; it lives in the space between. It reminds us that honoring the ocean begins with remembering it and that reflection, like water, has depth.
We hope it inspires reverence and action to protect what sustains us.
We have exciting announcements this summer! Sign up for our updates!

About This Year’s World Oceans Day
2025 Theme – Wonder: Sustaining What Sustains Us
The ocean is our world’s greatest wonder, a seemingly endless source of sustenance, potential, wisdom, and awe. However, in this time of interlocking crises, humanity has grown increasingly isolated from the natural world and siloed in our self-preservation; and there is no clearer evidence of our selfish and short-sighted actions than in the ocean’s dire state.
