Float Tank Therapy: Why it’s awesome & you should force your friends to try it
Relaxing in a meditative float tank is one of those things that I’ve always wanted to try but, due to a combination of anxiety and guilt, I just figured it was something I’d never get to do. Until my friend gave me a spa gift certificate good for a float tank therapy session.
And HOLY GUACAMOLE, GUYS, I’m so glad I went. I need to tell you about my float tank experience, and also let you know why you should force your friends to do it too (especially if they’re moms)…
