FLOAT AWAY THE STRESS AT QUANTUM FLOATS! Float effortlessly in one of our three private float tank rooms while you experience profound rest and relaxation. Floating frees up circuitry in the mind for people to relax, reduce chronic pain and stress in a peaceful environment. 1 Robertson Drive, Suite 13, Bedminster, NJ 07921 973-782-3227 By: Diane Cawley Quantum Floats , a Mental Arts affiliated float center, located in Bed- minster, NJ, offers an environment where your nervous system is free of nearly all external stimuli. With 1000 pounds of Epson salt diluted in each tank, you’ll float effortlessly in one of their three private floatation tanks free from effects of gravity, light and noise. This sensory free environment liberates your mind allowing stress and tension to leave the body giving you time to relax and reduce stress. Quantum Floats has a relaxing spa setting. The owner of Quantum Floats , Ken Kaplan, insisted that I experience an hour of float time. Showering before and after floating is required. Ear plugs and an inflat- able neck pillow are optional. Once ready in my private room, I climbed into the float tank and closed the door behind me. The water is 10 inches deep and with a high Epson salt concentration everyone floats effortlessly. The tank itself is 8 ½ feet long by 4 ½ feet wide. While floating the mind enters a meditative and relaxation state. The absence of external stimuli allows your brain to reset. Quantum Floats is more than relaxation. This experience can help you examine your thoughts letting you become a better version of you. You can eval- uate where you are in life and where you want to be and adjust thought patterns which are the very source of your stress so that you can better express who you are as a soul. Quantum Floats has shampoo, body wash, conditioner and hairdry- ers for your convenience. Sensory deprivation in a floatation tank is a form of preventative healthcare. It reduces stress, anxiety, depression, pain, improves sleep quality and overall mood. Creativity, optimism and mindfulness also increase with floatation therapy. Studies have shown with repetitive use of the float tank you can improve your performance at work and at school. Quantum Floats has seminars available for individuals, couples and businesses. The Introduction to the Art of Rewriting seminar provides an experience in rewriting a neural pro- gram. It is based on the works of neuroscientist John C. Lilly and is held weekends 10am -5pm or 3 con- secutive weeknights 6-9 in their Bed- minster facility. The couples (“dyad”) seminar is an all-inclusive 8 day retreat held in Puerto Vallarta, Mexi- co. This seminar includes field trips and discussion groups designed to examine the most common errors people in a relationship make and simple solutions to those common errors. Time is set aside for people to enjoy the local shopping, restaurants and night-life. Please contact Ken at Quantum Floats for additional information.
