Do you know this feeling when you are so stressed, you can't eat because you feel a big knot squeezing your stomach? I usually lose weight during stressful times because this knot in my stomach makes me lose all the appetite. The floatation tank is the only place where I can feel all the tension in my muscles loosen and knots in my stomach untie. I may still think about my problems during my floats, but because my fight or flight mode is switched off during the float, those problems don't cause the stress and tension anymore. It really helps with looking at my problems from different perspective, as I'm focused more on finding solutions rather than on how stressed they make me feel. It's like thinking about someone else's problems rather than your own, and it's always easier to find solutions to someone's problems!
