When I started working at SF Salt I was introduced to the idea of floating and thought, no way in heck would I ever get in one of the Matrix-esque tanks that are filled with water and over 800 pounds of Epsom Salt. What kind of crazy person voluntarily gets into a sensory depravation tank? Isn’t that the kind of thing they use as punishment for prisoners who misbehave?!

After a few months in the office I quickly learned the benefits of floating. Pain management, relaxation, calming the mind … all things I really could benefit from. 

So, when I found out I was going to the Float Conference in Portland … I became the crazy person voluntarily climbing into a dark tank, to float for an hour.

Looking at the thoughts going through my head, it is clear I need to float more often to calm my ever-active mind.
