Sensory Deprivation Tank Simulation, Isolation Tank, Float Tank — Part 2

Sensory deprivation tanks, also called isolation tanks or float tanks, are designed to block out all external stimuli, offering a deeply relaxing and unique sensory experience. These sensory deprivations tanks are soundproof and lightproof, filled with water heavily saturated with magnesium sulfate, allowing users to float effortlessly. In the absence of regular sensory input, the brain may begin to generate its own—sometimes resulting in visual, auditory, or tactile hallucinations. While I’ve created this sensory deprivation tank simulation to give you a glimpse of the experience, it’s important to note that fully replicating the true effects of a sensory deprivation tank through video is not possible. Sensory deprivation tanks are designed to eliminate all sensory input—visual, auditory, and tactile—which is something that can’t be accurately simulated with any form of media. However, I aimed to create a meditative, calming atmosphere that captures some of the essence of a float tank. For this simulation, I’ve used subtle water caustics on a dark background for the visuals and underwater sound effects to enhance the auditory experience. While it’s not a perfect substitute, I hope you understand what I’m going for here, and that it offers you a limited sensory deprivation experience for meditation, sleep, or relaxation. As you engage with this sensory deprivation tank “simulation“, you’ll notice that removing external stimuli allows the mind to wander—similar to the moments just before falling asleep. One of the immediate effects is deep relaxation. Studies show that float tanks can reduce cortisol levels, the body’s primary stress hormone, leading to a sense of calm. Many people report improved clarity, personal breakthroughs, and even moments of epiphany. For those exploring meditation or mindfulness practices, this experience can be transformative. To make the most of this sensory deprivation tank simulation, I recommend minimizing sensory input as much as possible. Here’s how: Sight: Turn off all lights or wear an eye mask to block out visual distractions. Touch: Find a comfortable position, ideally lying down or sitting in a way that supports relaxation. Hearing: Eliminate background noise. Headphones will enhance the auditory experience, but they aren’t required. Smell: Ensure your environment is free of distracting smells. Lighting your favorite incense or candle can help set the mood. Breathing: Take deep breaths—inhale, hold briefly, and exhale slowly. Continue with steady, controlled breaths until you find a relaxing rhythm. Taste: Drink water to stay hydrated and reduce sensory stimulation in your mouth. While these suggestions are optional, following them will significantly enhance your experience. Relax, get comfortable, and enjoy this sensory journey! 🙏 I’m working on new videos everyday and your support is invaluable.

The audio slowly gets quieter over time, and introduces soft white noise to help guide you into a deeper mental state, and reduce distractions while you are trying to meditate or sleep.
