Float Atlanta

Have you ever sensed how the morning air has its own unique aroma? It’s rich and full of the earth’s essence, creating a moist atmosphere.

Inhaling this natural fragrance evokes a feeling of tranquility and relaxation, perfectly preparing us for a wonderful day ahead. Rather than diving straight into a hectic routine the moment you wake, consider embracing a slower morning. Take a moment to sit outside, listen to the birds 🦜 as they greet the dawn, observe the tiny creatures 🐭 bustling around, and find your center with some meditation 🧘‍♂️.

It's such a powerful thing to give your body the actual rest it needs. Not the rest in front of the TV or scrolling on your phone.

Actual rest.

I shut my eyes
to journey within
and discovered a cosmos
ready for discovery."

What do you envision when you close your eyes?

Sometimes we see guests walk in with the weight of the world on their shoulders. And then they float right out the door after their session... pun intended.

Sometimes we get lost in busy-ness and feel like there isn't enough time for all the things! But you can take as little as 5 minutes to give yourself a little wellness break. Maybe today you can try stepping away from your work and doing a quick stretch.

Our favorite is a few half Sun Salutations! (If you're not familiar with it, stand up, stretch up tall with arms overhead, then fold forward and touch your toes or shins, look forward and lift halfway up, then fold forward again, and then reach for the sky - repeat!)

Ah yes, time. It's fleeting, isn't it?

We're always concerned about it, at the very least. We rush around, feeling as if there isn't enough time. Other days, we wish we could just stop time, even for a moment, to just feel the world around us, or to possibly catch up with ourselves and process our thoughts, ideas, and feelings.

What a lot of people experience during their float sessions is just that. It's as if time has no existence while floating. There is no clock, no timer in your face, no notifications pinging you, and no expectations. It's just a moment in the world where time doesn't seem to exist. Many people report having exceptional revelations while floating; others exclaim that they were able to sort their thoughts without outer interference. No matter how your float "time" goes, it's always a great way to prioritize yourself.

On this Memorial Day, we're humbled and grateful for the fearless members of our armed forces whose lives were given to protect our nation.

Please join us in taking a moment today to reflect on their sacrifices and to remember their lives.

There they are! These are the three primary reasons that lead most individuals to float with us, and coincidentally, these are the three aspects that clinical research on floating has focused on the most. Time and again, studies reveal how effective floating can be in aiding people to alleviate stress, pain, and anxiety.

Think of it like hitting the gym. Your initial float may come with a mix of curiosity and nerves. However, as you float more, you discover the right techniques, how to relax, and ultimately experience the cumulative benefits of a regular floating routine.

Five minutes may not sound like a lot, but you would be surprised how much you can get done in that amount of time. You may also be surprised at how much better you will feel after you tidy up your space - even if it's just a little bit of it!

Next time you need a break from your work try tidying your desk space, making your bed, or giving doing the dishes for 5 minutes. You got this.

How much time do you spend "plugged in" each day? Close the laptop. Shut off your phone. Turn off the screens. Then come in to see us for a float session so you can finally catch your breath again.
