Have you ever floated in a saltwater sensory deprivation tank? It's like heaven to me. The instant I step in that water, I feel more ease - though to be honest, it took a few sessions for me to get there. I work at Still Point Wellness, one of the most beautiful, peaceful spas I've personally experienced, and floating is my favorite perk. As one who's attention spreads easily and habitually tracks a lot in my environment, shutting down the constant stimulus for an hour or two

Life after the flood: no running water, wondering what's next, being with the unknown and the intense feelings.
