Float tank.

Isolation chamber.

Sensory deprivation.

You may have heard one of these terms before, or maybe not. If you haven’t, it’s definitely something worth looking into..

y journey with the float tank began about six years ago when I heard from a friend about this unfamiliar concept of floating in an inclosed tank with 10-12 inches of water filled with almost a thousand pounds of epsom salt. The thought of it gave me a bit of anxiety at that time. I wasn’t ready to venture out into the world of the unknown; in complete darkness and silence, sitting with my own thoughts without any distractions, and reaching higher states of consciousness and/or possible out of body experiences. Fast forward to five years later, and I’m not only floating on a regular basis in my own tank, but I’m introducing other people to this magical space at my new health/detox spa in NYC.

Joe Rogan is a huge advocate of floating and has been a float tank owner for several years now. It’s starting to become more well known- partly in thanks to him- and people are really starting to open up to the concept of it, which I couldn’t be more happy about! It has truly improved the quality of my life beyond what I can express in writing. I sleep better/deeper, think clearer, and feel so refreshed afterwards. Not to mention, it counters the effects of jet lag (which was HUGE when I worked as a private flight attendant), alkalizes the body in a way that the Dead Sea is known to do, lowers cortisol levels (acidic stress hormone), and has helped my back/neck pain tremendously. I am forever grateful for this special healing environment.

I could go on and on about how it’s changed my life, but I’ll leave that up to you to experience for yourself!

I highly encourage anyone who is slightly interested in it to give it a try. Be open to possibilities that lie within the stillness.. and don’t wait 5 years like I did if you can help it.
