Cruel Summer: Solving Seasonal Insomnia with Float Therapy

I’ve never been described as a “sound sleeper.” Even in high school, I was the last to turn out the lights each night and the first to shuffle out of bed in the morning, making a fresh pot of coffee in a misguided attempt to replace the hours of sleep I consistently lacked. I hadn’t mentioned my tenuous history with my pillow when I was first introduced to float therapy by Mandy Rowe, a member of the True REST team. I was intrigued by float therapy for a number of […]

The Rainbow Connection: Guiding and Enhancing Chromotherapy

By: Alex Natwick | Tags:

Customization: That’s the theme that winds through every aspect of a True REST floating experience. Each True REST Float Pod is developed with the understanding that no two sessions are exactly the same. The lighting installed in each pod is no exception – users can individualize each float by basking in a preferred colored light, or cycling through a calming rainbow of options without interrupting the session. Particularly for followers of chromotherapy, personal control can be vital to maximize their practice. But for every chromotherapy practitioner, many more spa-goers walk […]

Curing Restless Mind Syndrome: Tips & Tricks to Quiet Anxious Thoughts

By: Alex Natwick | Tags:

We all face those weeks from time to time, and last week was one of them for me. With a move, a holiday, and several looming deadlines, I felt the stress of a mile-long to-do list in my mind, my body, and my spirit. I decided to book a session at True REST later in the week, expecting a float would purge both my stressed energy and my tense shoulders. I settled into my pod with the manic spirit of a woman who had been spent a week running on […]

Give Yourself A REST: The Benefits of Floating for Parents

By: Alex Natwick | Tags:

When was the last time you worked through lunch? Missed a workout? Skipped your weekly bubble bath? We often add time for ourselves on the to-do list, but somehow those tasks are still left without a check mark at the end of the day. When the surprises of daily life pop up, me-time tends to take a backseat. Some may view mental health breaks as unnecessarily indulgent or selfish – even when they’re vital to meet the needs of demanding careers, hectic family schedules, and active social lives. So how […]

Eat Right, Exercise, Float: How Float Therapy Aids in All Levels of Self Care

By: Alex Natwick | Tags:

“Self care” has recently become modern society’s newest buzzword du jour. A quick web search for the term begets over 31 million results with articles that cover everything from managing chronic medical conditions, to finding work-life balance, to putting anxious minds at ease with encouraging quotes. Generally speaking, the agreed upon definition of self care is any deliberate, self-controlled action taken to benefit one’s own health or well-being. In an increasingly competitive society that operates around the clock, it’s no wonder so many of us are searching for ways to […]

Choose to Feel Great in 2016…

By: Renée Claude | Tags:

Here we are, at the end of January, 2016—if you’re like many of us, you may have made resolutions—maybe you’ve kept them, or maybe you’ve slipped up (what are you, human?!) What does it mean to resolve, anyways? According to Webster, when we resolve we make a “firm determination” to do something. In other words, we make a real decision—we cut off other alternatives, and in doing so, truly choose. The resolutions we ring in with the new year come in all shapes, colors and sizes—from working out, […]

Making the Time for Ourselves in the Midst of Life.

By: Renée Claude | Tags:

As a team member of True REST, I especially have no reason to miss my weekly float. But, still there come times where I realize its been several weeks since I entered into the salt-filled oasis of a Float Pod. Its disconcerting, I’m fully aware of how much I love to float—and not just for the experience itself, but for the effects it has on me in the week to follow—mentally, physically and emotionally. I wonder why I so easily skip over spending time doing something I know I value–for […]

Floating Away Anxiety at True REST.

By: Renée Claude | Tags:

When I first began floating, I didn’t have any benefit in mind. I just wanted to experience for myself the “weird” sounding therapy—I wasn’t even aware of the range of offerings it might have for me. My anxiety and panic attacks were just a part of my reality that I had gotten used to—mild panics and mental breakdowns were just another part of the day. It would unfold as so: *queue situation I perceive as awkward*—my face flushes, heart pounds, breathing constricts, thoughts race—subsequent fight or flight unfolds […]

A Recipe for Feeling Great.

By: Kim Hamm | Tags:

True REST is The Science of Feeling Great—most of us could probably agree that “Great” is something we want to feel, but what does it mean—and how do floats take us there? Consider that feeling great might not be about addition. Entertain the idea that it may just be a subtraction game. I find great comfort in that: “Phew, I don’t need to gain anything, just release what’s weighing me down. “ Floating, after all, doesn’t give you anything—rather, it allows you to take away—stimulus, gravity, tension, […]
