A new study in Neuroscience of Consciousness followed 75 people with anxiety and depression through six float sessions.

The result: a distinct altered state the researchers named “aquahenosis”, oneness with water.

People described feeling boundless, weightless, and connected in ways that overlapped with experiences reported after psilocybin and ketamine, minus the visual effects.

The strongest results came from the group that floated longer and set their own schedule. And the feeling of expansiveness itself helped explain the lift in mood afterward.

“Floating feels like oneness.” This new study puts language and data behind something our clients have been saying for years.

It is a paradox that we encounter so much internal noise when we first try to sit in silence.⠀⠀⁠
⠀⁠
It is a paradox that experiencing pain releases pain.⠀⠀⁠
⠀ ⠀⁠
It is a paradox that keeping still can lead us so fully into life and being.⠀⁠
⠀ ⠀⁠
Our minds do not like paradoxes. We want things to be clear, so we can maintain our illusions of safety. Certainty breeds tremendous smugness.⠀⁠
⠀ ⠀⁠
We each possess a deeper level of being, however, which loves paradox. It knows that summer is already growing like a seed in the depth of winter. It knows that the moment we are born, we begin to die. It knows that all of life shimmers, in shades of becoming— that shadow and light are always together, the visible mingled with the invisible.⠀⁠
⠀ ⠀⁠
When we sit in stillness we are profoundly active. Keeping silent, we hear the roar of existence. Through our willingness to be the one we are, We become one with everything.⠀⁠

This feels like a reset button for my mind and body.

It can be pretty jarring to go from the overwhelming amount of modern stimulation we have in our lives... to just absolutely nothing. Boredom and overthinking can be really real when just getting started with floating or meditating.

But therein lies the practice.

Stress relief and anxiety relief will come over time as we learn to sit still, breathe, watch, and let go.

Best case scenario, you fall asleep! The float will be over in what feels like 5 minutes.

Schedule your next float and feel what your body has been asking for. Stillness, space, and a true exhale. 🤍

“Unlike anything I’ve ever experienced before.”

Nothing around you. Everything within you. 🤍

Did you know: floating while pregnant allows you to escape the added weight of pregnancy by taking the strain off the body and spine (and feet!). It promotes excellent sleep, a lovely sense of well being, and can help with all the aches and pains normally associated with pregnancy.

For many mothers, the environment creates a heightened sensitivity and connection with the baby, and some have reported a profound experience of “mirroring” from floating in a quiet, warm and secure environment while their baby does the same.

“We now have data to show, in fact, this is a form of sensory enhancement. But of the internal world.”

Leading researcher Dr. Feinstein’s work focuses on people with PTSD, panic disorder, agoraphobia, social phobia, and generalized anxiety. For those with anxiety disorders, learning to meditate can be challenging due to the relentless mental chatter. He said many of his patients experienced floating as an easier way to quiet the brain and arrive at the same relaxed state as dedicated meditators.

Research conducted at Karlstad University in Sweden has found that floating three times a week for four weeks significantly reduced symptoms of generalized anxiety disorder, which include excessive worry, edginess, irritability, and an unrealistic view of problems, among other challenges. At a six-month follow-up, 37 percent of the treatment group was found to be at full remission.

This is The Science of Feeling Great.

Learning how to be with ourselves. One float at a time. 🫶

Every review we receive means the world to us. 🤍

Hearing how a float changed your day, or your week, is exactly why we do this.

If True REST has been your place to rest, recover, or just breathe for a moment, we’d love to hear about it. Your words might be the reason someone else finally walks through our doors.
