Floatation Tank Experience Report - My First Time in an Isolation Tank / Sensory Deprivation Tank
Shortly after reading Lilly’s book, I discovered that someone in my own town has a floatation tank in their home which they rent out to curious folks like myself, in 90 minute sessions. I’ve just gotten out about 90 minutes ago. Here is my report of that session.
I get inside the tank and shut [...]

Isolation Tanks and the Potential For Lucid, Trippy, Self Transformative Experiences
I’ve been fascinated with the thought of floating around in an isolation tank ever since I first saw the film Altered States ten years ago.

Poppy Seed Tea Can Kill You
This is really interesting:
http://poppyseedtea.com/
The parents who run this site had their son die after consuming a large dose of self-made poppy seed tea.
The site was set up as a “information service” to others about the dangers of how it can happen.
It’s not full of crazy hype. It just is what it is.
Much respect to these parents, who [...]

The Coalessence Festival - music speakers, raw food yoga, oh my!
In an effort to complete the transition from anti-hippie punk rock straight edge kid to an intellectual hippie adult, I gotta say:
Damn, I really wish I could make it to this “Coalessence” festival in October:
In my defense (here the anti-hippie in me again), I don’t want to go so much for the music as for [...]

Salvia Divinorum Banned in All 50 States!
Salvia Divinorum banned in all 50 states?
Well, it’s not true as I sit here writing this, but, it begs the question: how far away are we from such a headline?
