I plan on being stoned all day tommorow, with a high possibility of shrooms. I'll see you in the astral planes

Good Luck!

Best of luck.
It goes without saying, but write us a little report when you get back. Concisely.

90 is a good amount of time. any more than 2 hours on the 1st time might make you a little crazy. no alcohol all day, but smoke right before hand if you like.
try a 2 hour sober session one day, and a handful of fluff the next. the flotation really primes your mind to be cracked open wide.
one of my fantasy ideas is to find a cave off of the dead sea that you can swim into but is totally dark. preferably a cave into which a hot spring flows and that's got piles of sea salt chillin. then, dissolve the exact proportion of extra sea salt, if necessary, and divert just enough hot spring flow to heat it to the proper tmp (around body temp), and you got yourself as all-natural float sesh!
(bonus points if you take solar GBs out front before hand)

That was really interesting. Too soon to process it all though, but I'll write about it in a bit.

Im sure it gets better after you go a couple times. you are more comfortable and know what to expect a little more. Did it take a little while to get used to it?

Quite a while, yes. I almost freaked out a little in the beginning. Not from claustrophobia but from anxiety.

I just thoroughly researched this topic and it sounds amazing. I am very jealous and NEED to try this. i have a hard time relaxing without chemicals, so cumulative use would do me some good. Have fun, and concentrate man...

Hell yeah OMF, I'm curious about what your experience was like! Think you'll do it again?
