ah, i remember my first float experiences, after the session i would walk back out the door into the world, walking downtown like an inch above the pavement. makes me want to do it again, since this was a longer time ago, but it's expensive where i'm at. if it wasn't a wellness/spa trend like it is now and more people knew about it and it grew accepted on similar level as a sauna, i could afford doing it more often and then i would probably be making it a weekend ritual :smile:

this place is 40$, under after this sunday will be 50$, but these guys will barter/trade for MANY things lol.

Also you can volunteer 4 hours and get free float.

Damn! So is the bliss comparable to meditation? because I feel light and floaty when I meditate.

like i said, it has a kind of privileged status as far as the commercialization of floatation tank services go. not quite accessible for common folk and students.

Great place for meditation.  no outside stimuli allows for almost instant release.

Well shit, the only place around here is $75/float.  I have some cash, but not enough to be blowing $75/hour.

Did he dream about dragons? Did he dream about deer? Did he whisper  he names of friends who were near?
What songs did they play, and how far away? Why did he whisper, why did she scream?
What does the sound of a screen door mean?
Who talks on the hill? Who goes to the cellar, can you feel the chill? Where does the river, when will the wind?
How far are the mountains? Where do they end? Why would the church?
Did the service begin? Tell me who died, and tell me who cried.
Help me hide in the skin of a deer, my zippered-up bag in the mouth of a stag so swiftly I go through rows of does,
it flows, it flows, it flows, it flows all over the hill where the green grass grows.

All float people I have met are super relaxed and love to work with peoples situations.

would be worth just talking to em and see what kind of deal you can strike up.

The one I go to accepts greens for trade haha

Thought I would bump this thread to get some feedback on floating prices? Also, is it possible to float at home without a commercial tub?

prices range a lot per place.

at the place I work: $50 for 90 min  $60 for 2 1/2 hours.

You cannot realistically float at home without a proper tank
Although you could make a tank.

Psychedelic author D M Turner drowned when he tried to use a bathtub for similar use. Of course, this may or may not have happened if he hadn't injected ketamine as well.

I'd be careful with that.

This. I'd love to try it, but realistically many of us don't have that kind of cash to blow. And for those of us without that much cash to blow, I'd say it's probably equally unlikely we are growing weed and can offer that for trade. At least, I'm not. (And I would imagine anyone growing a bunch of good weed probably isn't super financially-strapped, either.)

I wonder if they'd let me barter with blowjobs. I suck a mean dick. :lol:

IDK if they even have any of these places in my neck of the woods. Probably not.

So do you rent these and they bring them to your house? Or do you have a membership to go somewhere? What's the deal? How do you have 4 months? I'm interested in this... I wonder how this would play with dissociatives :strokebeard:

duneraver: I read you listened to orchestral music while in there, does music takes anything away from fully experiencing sensory deprivation?

Hmm...theres one in Chicago thats supposedly rather nice. It's like $50 an hour. $115 for both a massage and a float. I'd probably be willing to pay it if I didn't have to take the train into chicago and back. Shits time-consuming yo.:blowmybrainsout:

"I have no way of knowing whether you, who eventually will read this record, like stories or not. If you do not, no doubt you have turned these pages without attention. I confess that I love them. Indeed, it often seems to me that of all the good things in the world, the only ones humanity can claim for itself are stories and music; the rest, mercy, beauty, sleep, clean water and hot food (as the Ascian would have said) are all the work of the Increate. Thus, stories are small things indeed in the scheme of the universe, but it is hard not to love best what is our own—hard for me, at least."

Music is only at the very end to signal that time is up. Else-wise is silent.
