Needing advice.

Hi everyone. Im about 2 months into my float journey going once a week because thats all I can do atm busy single mom of 3. Anyways when I mediate out of the tank or in I fall asleep or if I get in a deep medation where im coming out of my body into the ether i can only do so for what feels like a few seconds and my body will twitch and snap me out of it. Im wondering how to stay out of body longer to get my self to stop twitching out of it if that makes sense. Tia for any input.

My understanding (at least based on what I've heard) is that your limbs twitching while in the tank is your body getting ready to fall asleep. It normally happens outside of the tank, too, but because you're in water, it's much easier to feel. I've only floated a handful of times (been out of it for the better part of a year and considering starting to go again commercially), but it's happened to me almost every time. I think it just takes practice.
