My new happy place. I was a Certified Massage Therapist for many years before and while I became a Health and Wellness Coach. To say I’m open to natural health and wellness modalities that can benefit me, my family, and my clients, is an understatement. Since I’ve traveled all over the world reviewing spas and therapies, I have high standards with regards to cleanliness, professionalism, and wellness benefi
We’ve heard it before. The story goes something like, “I come once every few months and I always feel relaxed afterwards but during the float, I have such a hard time relaxing my body and quieting my mind”. Sound familiar to anyone? It doesn’t matter what it is that you choose to do, if you do it with consistency, you will start to notice improvements. This is one of the first things we tell clients who i
I remember the first time I got a migraine like it was yesterday. I was thirteen. My head felt like it was exploding, as if there was a hammer pounding the inside my skull and it was resisting cracking open. I lost my ability to see clearly and I became extremely nauseous. My sensitivity to sound and light had become truly unbearable and I just wanted to crawl into a little ball in a cave and go to sleep. When thes
There are few stressors in life like the ones the men and women of our military face on a daily basis. They are put under immense pressure during high-intensity situations and the stress they endure while deployed away from their families can take its toll when they return home. Often enough, we see more and more soldiers coming back from duty with PTSD, anxiety, depression, insomnia and addiction. For the people w
In the 7 years I’ve been regularly floating, I’ve had an incredibly vast spectrum of physical, mental, emotional and spiritual experiences while in the pod. Although I rarely fall asleep during a session, how deeply I am able to relax depends on how much I allow myself to relax. When I look back at the full range of the experiences I’ve had, there are a few, very specific floats that still stick out in my mem
How many of you have been in the middle of a float and found it nearly impossible to turn off the whirlwind of thoughts in your head? It’s a very common experience and I know I’m not the only one who has found myself lying there wondering, “Why can’t I turn this monkey mind off?” A racing mind can be frustrating and extremely distracting from the essence of why we come to float in the first place: to pra
By now I’m guessing we probably don’t need to convince you that floating has some serious benefits to your overall health and well being. It’s been known to help reduce pain and inflammation, decrease stress and anxiety, along with a laundry list of other things like promoting inner peace, deepening your meditation practice and helping you achieve more rest and relaxation. Maybe you book a float every once in
From politics to fake news to tariffs to taxes to jobs and families – we live in a time where there is no shortage of stress triggers. Simply put, we are stressed out!

As a woman, one of the biggest life changing events that can happen to you is getting pregnant. It affects your physical, mental and emotional state unlike anything you’ve experienced before. No two pregnancies are alike, making the journey of each individual one that much more unique. For some mothers, pregnancy can take its toll when things like swelling, insomnia, cramping and stress start to creep in on a fre
