nothingness

It can be hard to believe for some that floating in a giant looking egg filled with water and Epsom salts can actually have any benefit at all! So why is something that looks so strange so powerful?

Perhaps it’s the ability for one to step away from the everyday noise of life and just be alone. Maybe it’s the fact that the body can finally find relief from that troubling force we call gravity. Or could it be more scientific as far as brain chemistry goes? This could explain how floating can help those with anxiety, depression and PTSD. Or do we take another approach and say floating simply allows us to just be as we are without distraction or judgment. And do we possibly go as far to say floating merely allows us to step into our true nature or true self which is liberation from all perceived personal suffering.

I think it is safe to say that this nothingness we choose to step into is working its magic on all levels regardless of how we want to look at it. Finding peace and stillness in a world bombarded by stimulation and distractions is truly a special thing. Finding physical and psychological pain relief without the use of drugs is truly an exciting thing. Finding yourself in all of this is purely indescribable.

See you all in that salty space! 🙂
