Floating is the scientifically proven process of relaxing and re-setting the brain and body through REST (restricted environment stimulation technique) and sensory deprivation, originally discovered by Neurophysicist Dr John C Lilly. Be wary that all the "supporting evidence" for sensory deprivation that you'll see from these businesses seem to be very beneficial for them, financially—e.g. "You should float regularly for optimal results."
