sensory isolation

Sensory isolation is a practice where an individual is removed from external stimuli—such as light, sound, and touch—to create a calm environment. This is often done using environments like sensory deprivation tanks, where a person floats in warm, saltwater without distractions. The goal is to help relax the mind and body, enhance self-awareness, and even promote creativity. While some find it beneficial for relaxation or mental clarity, prolonged sensory isolation can also lead to feelings of anxiety or disorientation if not managed properly. Overall, it’s a technique that encourages introspection in a distraction-free setting.
