Why Sensory Deprivation Therapy Is For Everyone
Sensory deprivation is simply the act of depriving yourself of all external stimuli. The therapy that does that is known as sensory deprivation therapy and Restricted Environmental Stimulation Therapy (REST) or simply Floating. It is usually done by placing you in a tank of water. You will lie down in a supine position. The tank will be devoid of any form of sound and light.
Wondering if you won’t sink? No, you won’t! The water in the tank is not ordinary water. The water is filled with Epsom salt (a common source of magnesium). About a thousand pounds of magnesium is poured in a tank of a few hundred gallons of water. This makes the water supersaturated. It is almost impossible to sink since the magnesium gives the water zero gravity.
A session of sensory deprivation usually lasts between sixty to ninety minutes. Without any form of stimulus, your body will be taken back to its natural state. The fact that the therapy blocks all stimuli helps to free the mind and this is why some people see it as some kind of Yoga.
Two things have made sensory deprivation more popular
