”“I just LOOOVE floating. It is the ultimate self care practice. If you can’t seem to meditate this is the perfect introduction to the feeling of bliss of meditation. I go in and out of consciousness but mainly I’m always present and aware with thoughts floating in and out. I’m able to process my week/month/life while in this state.
