Sensory Deprivation is self explanatory, it is the process of depriving yourself of 3 major senses, which include;

• Sight
• Sound
• Feeling/Touch

We now have the technology to create these deprivation tanks that humans can lay in to deprive themselves of all the distracting external stimuli, and allow themselves to get into a very deep meditative state.

How do they work?

• These tanks are filled with a mixture of water and epson salt. The epson salt allows you to float on top of the water without the fear of sinking.

• In most tanks they will heat the watery mixture to match your internal body temperature so that it literally feels like nothing is there and you cannot sense touch anymore.

• On top of that the tank is completely light free. It blocks out all external light and creates a 100% dark area for you to relax, you actually cannot tell the difference if your eyes are opened or closed.

• Lastly the tank is sound proof and they will usually make you wear ear plugs as well to even further eliminate sound.

What are the benefits?

• To learn to meditate
• Stress reduction
• Anxiety relief
• Sports recovery
• Pain relief
• To promote relaxation
• Deep thinking
• Fast forward time (Yes 2 hours feels like 15 minutes)

There are even more benefits of this that you will discover in your own experience
