I’m going to a float center this afternoon to use a float tank.
It’s a chamber filled with water and magnesium sulfite (Epsom salt). You just float on the surface of the water.
The weightlessness helps my back pain, and the sensory deprivation helps my anxiety.
I turn out the lights but keep the ambient music.
Wow, I’ve heard of these things, but have never seen a place that offered them.
Sounds great!
That would be cool to try.
Have a good float!
That sounds awesome. I wish we had a centre like that in my area
I used one once. Unfortunately for me, I had just shaved that morning. I did not realize what a bad idea that would be. The salt got into all the tiny exposed hair follicles and it burned badly.
That’s one of my worst nightmares!
I couldn’t handle that at all! Definitely not for me. But I’m glad to hear it helps you
i hope it helps you =)
for me it would be a bit scary cause all closed in.
Ouch! That hurts just thinking about it. 
The first time I used one I just panicked for the first 20 minutes. I had to really talk myself through it and convince myself that I was safe. It got easier after that. You are alone with your thoughts, but you can focus on the music or the sound of the water as you move it around with your hands. The most uncomfortable feeling I get now is boredom.
That’s really cool!
The one I use has a door, so you enter it like a shower. It’s more like a room than a tank. That helps a lot. I’m not sure I’d be able to do it if it was like a tanning bed or a coffin.
ah yea that’s nice =)
maybe i would enjoy it too, i’m not sure… I like being in the water in my bathtub… so maybe it would be nice for me too.
