 My name's Jay Nichols. I'm a marine biologist from Davenport, California. My talk is about BlueMind, which is the title of a book I wrote by the same name, but also it refers to the way we feel when we're near and on or underwater. I call that BlueMind, and it's a different mental state. It's a different emotional state that the water puts us into. And I refer to water in general, not just water in float tanks, but lakes, rivers, creeks, pools, tubs, the ocean, and all that water does that to us. And so I like to explore and go a bit deeper into the science behind what happens from the moment we touch the water to while we're floating in it to maybe swimming or going under water, or perhaps even just looking at a photograph of water can take us to that BlueMind space.
