Semi-regular user here (2-3 times / month). I view it as yet another tool under the "investigation of self" initiative that some people like me have taken on. What do I get out of it? Well, my experience in the tank differs every time. Some times I use it as a source of tranquility, some times I use it to focus on a certain topic I want to work out in my head, and some times I have absolutely zero intention and I just let the experience happen. Much like meditation, in the time immediately after the tank I find myself more aware, moving a bit slower, just kind of taking the environment in. First time I ever tried the tank was in NYC and I walked from Chelsea to the east side. The sounds of the city seemed much more sharp. I definitely recommend meditating consistently before trying it, if you can. It'll make the adjustment a bit smoother because you won't be wrestling so much with "being alone with my thoughts" and you can concentrate on "holy shit, am I in outer space right now?!"
