Float Tanks and shrooms/other entheogens

[oceanzen]

I've been floating about 1 1/2 hours per week for the last few months. It's been amazing! I highly recommend it.
I've done all of these sessions straight with no hallucinogens.

I'm going to get some Mexican psilocybin soon, as I'm very curious to see how this will affect the float tank session.

Has anyone here combined mushrooms or other trips with floating?

Do you recommend a specific length of time in there?
I've found 1 1/2 hours is normally perfect for me as when I used to do 2 hours I would normally wake up for the last half an hour and feel like I was waiting for it to finish.

Looking forward to hearing from other floaters

It's a total timing thing .
I've missed a few times and it can be a squirming and very uncomfortable experience. Almost better to wait for the come up to be over before you get in the tank . I have yet to really dial it in . I know it can work but I've found it tricky . Knowing the mushrooms your dealing with and the dose is helpful .

agree completely with this: i would wait until i'm about 1-1.5hrs into the trip before the tank. comeup with mushrooms, as mentioned, can sometimes be a restless feeling...much nicer and more smooth to wait until that period is over and you've melted into the trip.

start small - maybe 2g at most the first time.

i've done this - it's awesome when timed right.

safe travels!

Thanks guys - This is really helpful

I read in another thread someone recommended it for the end of a trip/comedown.

I haven't done mushrooms for a year, and had partly forgotten that sense of nervous/excitement on the comeup.

Luckily the float tank is only a 10 min walk from my house so I think I'll eat the mushies about 2.5/ 3 hours before the float is booked, then just relax at home, maybe play some guitar or do a guided relaxation/meditation.

Funny I have a float place 5 mins from my house
