Context: Somehow my love of the ocean was enough. I also did a lot of meditation with ocean sounds. I think that helped me to see the ocean as a calming place not a place to fear. Ultimately, I just had to get back in the water. I took it slow though and stayed close to shore for quite a while, venturing out when it seemed safe. Today, I just wanted to get past the crowds so I swam out. 
Fact: I used meditation with ocean sounds to help overcome that experience.
