I know it is no replacement for daily meditation, and I am not hoping for that, but I think it would be really cool to have no major external stimulus (even just one time) while meditating. Here is a link to her (I think it's a she) site in case anyone from central Alberta reads this and is interested in a place to try this. I thought I would have to go to some specialized University and pay a fortune if I ever wanted to do this properly. I'm excited to try and will let you all know if I turn into a raging primal beast[)]...
Did you ever wind up trying flotation tanks CarsonZi?
I have done it a few times but for me I tend to need at least 2 hours to start getting to the good stuff, and it isnt cheap. They have float houses in Van and Kits now...
Seems like a great way to quickly get to pratyahara, so it is a decent compliment to yoga if obviously not a substitute. If it were cheaper I would go more often :-)
