Winehouse, the talented performer whose personal problems have been dissected by national newspapers in recent months, discovered the wonders of scuba diving while on holiday in the Caribbean over Christmas and New Year.
Staying with Canadian hit-maker Bryan Adams at his holiday home on Mustique, Winehouse is reported to have gone diving with him every day, and to have revelled in the new experience.
She told the Daily Star: 'I've learnt to appreciate simple things, like the beauty of nature. And it's taught me to face my fears.
'It's a different world down there. I can look at things in a new way. I've come to the realisation that life is short, so I want to make sure I live every minute of it.'
Adams is reported to have invited Winehouse out to Mustique to help her get over her difficulties, which have included drug and drink addictions.
Her husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, is on remand at London's Pentonville Prison for alleged assault and perverting the course of justice.
