Floating is about what you won’t be doing. You won’t be bound by gravity. You’ll be spending an hour or so lying in silence and pitch darkness while suspended in a warm solution of water and 1100 lbs of Epsom Salt. The concentration of Epsom salt will be so dense that you will float effortlessly; like a cork.

The fluid and air temperature will be maintained at external body temperature around 95 degrees so there will be a sensation of an absent surrounding. In short; it will be complete mental and physical relaxation.

Because float tank therapy creates such an ideal environment for meditation and reflection, it has been called “the gateway to the creative mind”. Research has found that floating increases Theta brainwaves which are directly linked to creativity and perception. Customers often describe that floating offers them such an incredible space for self-introspection that they are able to leave with greater feelings of self-confidence, self control, and serenity.

With its unique combination of physical and mental benefits, it’s little wonder that floatation therapy counts professional and amateur athletes among some of our biggest advocates. Psychically, float therapy aids in healing, pain relief, and improved sleep. Mentally, it is associated with stress relief, increased focus and concentration, and positive visualization.

In addition to the more subjective experience of feeling relaxed, floating has been associated with a clear reduction in several physical components of stress. Researchers have discovered that floating actually lowers blood pressure and levels of cortisol (commonly known as “the stress hormone”). High levels of cortisol are frequently associated with elevated stress and increased risk for chronic illnesses and depression.

Floating can enhance one of the most promising alternative treatments for PTSD: meditation. Studies have shown that meditation practice combined with traditional therapy can improve the severity of PTSD symptoms—and there is a growing body of research that indicates time in the float tank makes meditation more accessible and effective for its practitioners.

108 Namaskars: What does it mean and why you should try them.

The breath training of the class. Ujjayi is the type of breathing technique we use as we move through our postures, this alone can simultaneously relax and energize you. It includes an inhale through the nostrils and an exhale through the nostrils. That may sound simple but without practice it can be rather difficult to find and perform while in a physical bind (one hand hooked under the leg to the other over the back).

One way Ujjayi breath creates physical changes in the body is by regulating the heating of the body. The friction coming from the air passing through the throat and lungs generate internal body heat.

Ujjayi can calm the nervous system. Because Ujjayi breath stimulates the Vagus nerve, it gives a calming sensation to the nervous system.


According to the National Center on Health, a Yoga practice including Ujjayi breath may improve your concentration, sleep, and help manage stress.

Spiritual Benefits: Ujjayi breath, being the breath that carries life force, inspires deep inward exploration. Because of the controlled rhythm practitioners are able to maintain focus but like all elements of yoga, it requires practice, patience, and an open mind and heart.

In ujjayi breathing, both inhalation and exhalation are done through the nose.

Constrict your throat to create an ocean sound coming in and out.
