The Deepest Form of Relaxation

Exploring the Benefits of Floating Regularly

Throughout my life I have been always on the go, always looking for the

next level. Ive never felt settled and comfortable, always setting the next

goal as soon as the current one nears completion and pushing myself

all the time. With this attitude, I felt myself under pressure most of the

time, and with pressure comes stress, loads of stress, and the feeling that

I never had enough time. I was burning the candle at both ends, but I

concluded that this was what life required.

For those of us who want to thrive and lead a healthy lifestyle in this

high-pressure world of instability, confusion, constant change, and stress,

we couldnt stand a chance if we were physically or mentally sluggish. So

when I got to know about flotation therapy, I quickly realised that this

could be the natural answer to the stresses of this ever-changing world

of ours. Regular floating can be the way to relax your tired body while

engaging your subconscious mind as you control your thoughts.

I discovered that regular floating made me a healthier and happier

person. I said goodbye to a stressful lifestyle as I exercised and reinforced

my bodys capacity for happy thoughts, healing, good sleep, creativity,

and imagination. I had lower blood pressure, easier concentration, and

more energy. I discovered how regular floating positively changed my life

and helped me focus on the things I want out of life.

The powerful technique of floating can help people, especially

go-getters, to achieve their goals, to become much more centred, and to

tackle the issues and problems that life throws at them easily and calmly.

Isnt true that if we approach our problems in a relaxed state, we stand a

better chance of solving them?

So when I was called up to run one of the very first flotation centres

in England, I was completely blown away by the difference this form of

therapy made in my life. The experience of lying in a tank, a gravity-free

environment, experiencing weightlessness and proper blood circulation,

sold me on the idea of floating regularly. I thought of the millions of

people out there with busy lifestyles like me who could find the results

from floating regularly very helpful. I thought of people who may be

magnesium deficient, who may be at risk of developing or already suffer

from poor blood circulation, diabetes, arthritis, obesity, stroke, cancer,

heart disease, fatigue, and those who may be so stressed out that they

cannot even sleep at night.

At the flotation centre, I started researching flotation and the difference

it made in peoples lives. My position at the time facilitated this research,

as I always found the time to chat with all my clients about their

experiences on the day to see what changes regular floating was making

for them. What I found was that there was not enough information out

there about how this fantastic therapy can be beneficial in the long term.

I was so involved with the floating business that even my spare time was

eaten up by research on the topic, and I promised myself that as soon as

the opportunity arose, I would put pen to paper to let the world know

in depth the benefits of being present within, switching off, and being

in solitude and seclusion while spending some time in a gravity-free,

sensory deprivation isolation tank for just an hour or a lunchtime

holiday.
