I was a bit nervous going into it- I’m a bit claustrophobic, and I have a really hard time sitting still.

Seriously. I was afraid that I would feel more panicked than relaxed. But after just two minutes of “oh my god, where am I?” something came over me and for the next 88 minutes I completely blissed out. I felt almost immediately calm and that lasted for days afterward.

Floating is probably incredible no matter what your current state of mind, but I would also seriously recommend it if you’re feeling less than awesome. I have been really stressed out and feeling completely unable to relax, and floating really did it for me in a way that other things (acupuncture, massage) haven’t. I’m going to recommend it to friends in distress- instead of saying “you need a massage.”
