Floatation

I just got done my first ever floatation tub experience and it is totally awesome.I did a 90 minute floatation at Eternity Blissin Oakland. It was like the best meditation experience I've ever had. I was completely relaxed after I got over my initial compulsion to try and float. There is nothing to do and as I learned to relax my muscles the weightless feeling was undescribeable. I did a lot of affirmations during this floatation experience, such as releasing my ego on my out breathes, as well as combining my mind with the mind of the Buddha, Christ,or Universal Mind. So much happened yet at the same time nothing happened. I've never had an experience quiet like it. I will definitely do it again. Now I feel energized but at the same time incredibly relaxed. It's kind of like tripping in that the experience is hard to describe to someone else that has never tripped before. I feel good and I'm releasing my ego. Sweet.

Did you get that crazy sensation as though you were spinning in the center of a whirlpool or sliding downhill backwards? I did and it was really wild and interesting that when the mind has nothing to locate itself by contextually, it invents all sorts of feelings that you would swear were real. A small window into the power of the mind...

Good to know about another float center. The one I went to years ago in SF is no longer there I don't think. I'll be checking that place out.
