Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.
Rules…
- Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
- Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
- Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
- No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
- New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

Ooh let us know how it is! I've always wanted to do that.
Just went yesterday, it was awesome!
I did the full sensory deprivation, no sound/light while floating for 1hr
At first my tinnitus became overwhelming, but after it died down I just started thinking about random things and my body drifted away.
It felt like sleeping but being totally awake, it's called a theta brainwave state.
Before i knew it the music came on to tell me an hr was up, it legit felt like 10min but I was in there for more than an hr lol
That sounds amazing and super relaxing! Man I really want to give it a try. I'm glad you had a good time!
It was super relaxing. At some point, I even got nauseous from my stomach muscles relaxing and untightening, but it passed fast.
I've been feeling way more relaxed all day, too. I would totally recommend it! :3
Do you expect some longer term benefits? Are you planning to repeat the experience?
I didn't know what to expect. I was curious about trying it ever since I learned about sensory deprivation.
I went on Saturday and today I'm still feeling more relaxed than usual, I didn't even have my usual morning nausea waking up for work today :3
I'll definitely go again. This was a bday gift, and individual appointments are like 80$, so probably not for a while, but I want to do it again for sure!
