Episode 3: Floatation - Sensory deprivation as a path to freedom

from Where from Here · host Louisa Clarke

Urban noise, work stress, domestic pressures, all of these can strip daily life of calm, quiet and silence, key elements for making lucid decisions and being able to sustain deep and concentrated attention. Floatation tanks or initially sensory deprivation chambers, were  invented by Dr John Lilly in the 1950s. The impact expected was not what was experienced, namely in no way was it claustrophobic or panic inducing, rather it was powerfully relaxing and rejuvenating. Now celebrities, scientists and actors alike including Graham Hancock, Joe Rogan, Taylor Swift all eulogise on the benefits of a float. In this episode Louisa Clarke will speak to prolific Author, Business Consultant and Executive Coach Jeremy Kourdi (www.kourdi.com) who shares his own personal journey with Floatation, from sceptic to convert.
