Dr. Justin Feinstein & Mandy Rowe | Floatation Therapy: The Research, History, & Broad-spectrum Benefits Of Time In The Tank
Psychology of the Disengaged Mind and Internal Sentience
The discussion addresses a study where participants preferred receiving electric shocks over being alone with their thoughts for fifteen minutes. Dr. Feinstein argues that flotation creates a perfect environment for interoception, where the body reaches a state of homeostasis at skin temperature (95 degrees). This environment allows the brain to focus on internal signals like breath and heartbeat, making meditation significantly easier than in external settings.
