Restricted Environmental Stimulation
John C. Lilly
“Lilly's isolation tank — the method behind every float session in File 004.”
Esalen-era REST put a body in saturated Epsom salt and turned sensory reduction into a timed protocol. Commercial tanks followed; the session is still Lilly's.
Opened flotation as a named method, not a novelty bath.
- Isolation tank
- Sensory reduction timing
- Neutral buoyancy rest
A tank, salt, silence.
