How To Float
Every person is wonderfully unique and because of this, so is their floating practice.
Body
Physically, floatation therapy is experiencing a feeling of weightlessness, laying effortlessly on top of a shallow pool (30cm) of warm water (35.5°C) saturated with half a tonne of epsom salt. The environment is peacefully dark and quiet, with the intention of reducing input to your senses.The body releases any muscular tension, our parasympathetic nervous system (rest state) is activated, stress hormones and blood pressure reduce and spines gently decompress.
Mind
The human brain processes the equivalent of 11 million bits of information per second. In our daily lives the brain is constantly processing sensory input, and so when in an environment of sensory reduction, the brain gets a chance to press pause on all of those processes, providing an amazing opportunity for the brain to rest and restore, in what is effectively an intervention for the entire nervous system.
Each float experience has a profound potential for personal growth and wellness. To answer what truly happens to your mind when you step into that beautifully silky salt water, turn down your senses, leave gravity behind and honestly tune into what is going on within you is indescribably personal to you.Paired with simple breathing techniques you can reach the same deeply meditative states in one session that experienced meditators can spend years to attain. With practice you can guide your sessions, gain deep personal insights, play with your most creative ideas, learn to lucid dream or simply just rest.
What we can guarantee is that upon emerging, you’ll feel both tranquil and revitalised, ready to step back into the world with a lighter and brighter body and mind.
