This book is a collection of works from writers who have all experienced “floating” - the act of lying supine in a luke-warm pool of salt water in total darkness and silence for extended periods of time. Advocates of floating believe that the practice decreases stress, increases creativity, and can sometimes open the door to profound mystical experiences. Over 25 writers from Portland, Oregon put those notions to the test. Each writer floated four times and authored a piece of writing after each experience. The pieces in the book include fiction and nonfiction, poetry and prose, illustrated by Portland artists who also float. They contain passages that traverse the landscapes of humor, sadness, warmth, and hope. As it turns out, a lightless, soundless, chamber full of luke warm salt water really is an ideal place to go for inspiration.
