    Exploring the Void - Visuals & Floating (Part 2)

    In the last blog post I explained why a number of people report seeing colours and patterns during a float session. In this post I ask, Why do some of us have visual hallucinations during a float session? Before I answer that question, I thought I would give you a few examples of visual experiences that some of our clients and myself have had. It is worth noting that this is not as common as people think it is, some people are more susceptible than others, but it is not truly

    Exploring the Void - Visuals & Floating (Part 1)

    My first float was something else! I entered the float tank with child like curiosity, something I had not felt for a while. I had questions running through my mind, will I fall asleep? am I going to enjoy it? how am I going to get the most out of the session? What is going to happen? I didn’t fall asleep as such but entered a deep meditative state akin to NREM sleep. I thoroughly enjoyed it, so much so that I became a member! I got the most out of the session by having no ex

    Is There A Right Way To Float?

    Thoughts, Thoughts, Thoughts This question is a re-occurring one, people may wonder whether there is a correct way to float. An endless stream of questions may come up. Am I meant to be still, quiet, and practice deep meditation in order to achieve an out of body experience? Is it ok to stretch and move around? Why is the theme tune to Game of Thrones playing in my head? I feel hungry, perhaps I should have had something a bit more substantial a few hours ago. These are but a

    Floating & Lucid Dreaming

    In previous posts I have talked about visuals and hallucinations in relation to floating, these can happen on occasion and are not as common as you might think. You can read the previous posts here, Floating & Visuals – Part 1 Floating & Visuals – Part 2 Lucid dreaming is something most people experience at least once in their lives. To lucid dream on a consistent basis, however, is an art reserved for a special few. You too can learn how to lucid dream, but it takes practice

    Flowtation

    Have you ever spent half an hour searching the internet which, as you find out afterwards, lasted three hours? Or opened a book shortly after breakfast and a little while later noticed that the room was getting darker? Think of a moment in your life when you were so involved in what you were doing that the rest of the world seemed to have disappeared. Your mind wasn’t wandering; you were totally focused and concentrated on that activity, to such an extent that you were not ev

    An Artist of the Floating World

    Floating is associated with a raft of neurological and physical benefits which are well documented but if you have not floated before you might be looking for endorsements that are a little less technical. If so here are a few ways of thinking about it written from the perspective of a visual artist. Robert Fitzmaurice has been floating with us regularly since 2016. Back in the early 1980s I would often visit Durham Cathedral. On one such trip, while I was queuing to enter, I

    Overnight Float – A Journey into Sleep (Case Study)

    On the 19th of September I slept in a Float Pod overnight. You may be wondering why I decided to sleep in a Pod, sounds a bit extreme right? The simple answer is research! Plus, a whole bunch of people wanted to know what it was like doing an overnight and how it affected sleep and cognitive function. This was to be my 5th overnight float session, the last one was in 2016. I stayed in for 8hrs that time, that was the longest session. Previous sessions had been shorter periods
