Beyond Rest | Wembley

The Verdict

If rest and relaxation floats your boat, head to Beyond Rest in Wembley for a jaunt in one of their flotation tanks. It might sound scary, but spending some time floating in complete silence and darkness gives an epic boost to your happy hormones. According to Beyond Rest, floating can improve sleep, enhance creativity and help break bad habits. Be warned, it’s highly addictive.

And if you're looking to take your relaxation levels to all new heights, opt for an Ajna Light session pre-float. Designed to send you into a hypnagogic trance (that delightful phase between being awake and asleep), Ajna Light therapy is said to reduce stress and increase creativity and your quality of sleep.

If you're the kind of person who needs a little more coaxing into relaxation, Beyond Rest's new Journey Floats might just be your ticket to a calm mind. Sink into the tub and listen to the guided meditation as your body enjoys being weightless. Mindfulness more your jam? Opt for one of their Mindful Floats instead and you'll reap the benefits of a full-body scan meditation. Either way, you'll walk out much more relaxed than when you walked in.
