The secret to getting self-care into your life is forming small easily achievable habits. What often prevents us from taking time for ourselves to relax and release stress is often feeling like we don’t have time or we simply de-prioritise this time to the extent that it is just forgotten. Our self-care floating programme allows you to commit to floating every month for three months to build that habit into your life and give yourself the time you need to relax and rejuvenate, so you can perform better and feel better in your daily life.
Floatation is such an effective method of self-care because it allows the body and mind to totally relax. Float pods allow you to be entirely separate from the busy world outside and the effect of floating free from gravity in that environment allows your busy mind to gently calm and clear. Giving your mind this break on a regular basis can prevent the build-up of stress and can help alleviate the following issues:
Not only that, it also improves your concentration, enhances your creativity and strengthens your memory. All of these positive mental health effects accumulate the more you float and last longer each time, so we think floating regularly it is a great way to look after your mental health.
It isn’t all about mental health benefits though, as there are lots of physical improvements you will notice if you float regularly. Because the water in our float pods is skin temperature and saturated with Epsom Salt, it feels like you’re floating in air. Gravity stops working on your body so all your muscles and joints can completely relax, and blood flow improves. This relaxation and blood flow allows your body to heal more easily and can improve issues such as aches and pains, fibromyalgia and other chronic pain conditions and cardiovascular issues, as well as aiding injury recovery and improving sports performance.
Looking after yourself regularly in this way isn’t just helpful to strengthen your immune system and make you feel good (which is, obviously, really important), it also helps you to do what you need to do in a more productive way. Whether you are looking after family or running a business or both at the same time, making self-care practices like floating a regular part of your routine will help you to perform better with a clearer, calmer mind and comfortable, rejuvenated body.
Our self-care floating programme is designed to help you get into the habit of doing something to look after yourself on a regular basis. Because you commit to a three-month course up front, you can’t start making excuses that you don’t have time to take care of yourself or feel like you have more important things to worry about. Once you’ve got used to regular self-care like this, you’ll see the benefits and find it easier to carry on.
