Ever wondered what happens to your mind when you step into a float tank? 🌀

It’s not just simple relaxation, it is a literal “descent through the layers” of human consciousness.
Psychiatrist Thaddeus Kostrubala originally mapped out these psychological layers, but Boston educator R.A. (Terry) Hunt famously proved they happen in the tank. Hunt conducted an intriguing study tracking 40 volunteers over nearly 200 floats. As they drifted, every single floater naturally descended through three distinct phases:

🧠 1. The Physiological Orientation
This is the “warm-up” phase. When you first lie down, your brain is still hyper-focused on the physical world. You notice your heartbeat, your breathing, and how your muscles are reacting to the absolute weightlessness. You are anchoring yourself in present space and time.

💬 2. The Ego-Centered / Cognitive Mastery Orientation
Once your body completely surrenders, your ego mind takes the stage. This is where you process your day to day life, work stress, and tasks. But as you deep-dive further, the tank allows you to let go. Floaters frequently experience vivid imagery, old memories, and deep “cathartic moments” where heavy mental inhibitions finally release.

✨ 3. The Transpersonal Orientation
The ultimate destination. At this deepest layer, the boundaries of your physical body dissolve. You leave the daily ego behind and enter higher, deeper levels of the mind, experiencing profound flow, interconnectedness, and spiritual clarity.

Floating isn’t just taking a break from the world; it’s an intentional journey inward. Ready to see how deep your descent goes? 🌊

Neuroscientists agree that the flotation tank is a powerful tool for overcoming addictions, both by changing addictive behaviour and personality characteristics and by bringing about rapid and striking changes in human biochemistry.

In a serious of carefully controlled studies, the effects of floating in stopping smoking conducted over many years, Peter Suedfeld found the effects were powerful and unprecedented. In this first study he claimed that he had little faith it could actually help changed ingrained behaviour. But when he did a 3 month follow up, he found that the group in his study who had used the float tanks were smoking 40% less than the others. A further follow up study 2 years later found that the group was still smoking less!

This truly is such potent work. Meeting parts of myself that didn’t know how to be heard. And holding space for others to do the same.

#biodynamiccraniosacraltherapy has for me, been nothing short of alchemical.

And by the Autmun I’ll be ready to share it with all of you 🙏❤️✨

There are the big withdrawals like giving up drugs

There are the big withdrawals like giving up drugs or alcohol but we often fail to notice that withdrawal from the little things; habits, places and definitely people also create a very real and noticeable effect on our system.

Floating helps!

💦It is deeply pleasurable

💦 It reduces anxiety related bio chemicals like norepinephrine

💦 It reduces tremors

💦 It alleviates some of the depression and anxiety related to a “crash”
