    <description>The Grit City Podcast is a weekly audio experience like no other! Hosted from the vibrant city of Tacoma, Washington - also known as "Grit City," our show has been entertaining and informing listeners since 2014. And what a ride it's been! 
Every week, we release a new episode that introduces you to the dynamic and inspiring individuals who call the Pacific Northwest home. From local business owners and entrepreneurs to authors, artists, and unique characters, our guests embody the hard-working, blue-collar spirit that Grit City is known for. And let's not forget the occasional drug-fueled weirdo we may have met at a comedy club the night before!
The Grit City Podcast first launched back in the summer of 2014 and quickly built a loyal fanbase of listeners who appreciated the show's unique perspective on the Seattle/Tacoma area. After a brief hiatus in 2017, the podcast was rebooted in 2018, with even more friends and family members involved. It quickly regained its "must listen to" status and went on to deliver an impressive 275 episodes and counting, delivering over 280 hours of audio content to our fans since. With no signs of slowing down soon!
Our mission at The Grit City Podcast is simple: to bring the hard-working spirit of the Pacific Northwest to the world and have a good time doing it! We aim to create a community of listeners who understand and appreciate the concept of "grit". With a focus on local business owners, entrepreneurs, and unique characters, sprinkled with a good dose of humor, The Grit City Podcast is a one-of-a-kind audio experience that you won't want to miss.

  <description>Deane Benninghoven from Summit Hypnosis NW and Jessie Puryear from Urban Float join GCP to talk about their recent hypnotherapy experience with two floaters that received hypnosis therapy while in the tank.

Tune into episode 79 for an in depth conversation on his practice.  Jessie Puryear is the owner of the Urban Float Tacoma franchise.  His location has six rooms featuring the DreamPod Max Float Pod. Floating has been around for over 50 years and has many physical, mental, and emotional benefits to it.  It is most often used as a method for relaxation and to boost creativity. 
01:57 – Justin welcomes listeners to the episode, recommends listeners catch the Gremlins episode if they haven’t yet, and Scott talks about the YouTube Channel Stop a Douchebag located in Russia.  Justin introduces Deane from Summit Hypnosis Northwest and Jessie from Urban Float, and Deane explains what services Summit Hypnosis provides.  Jessie talks about what got him into floating, Scott also talks about what got him into floating, and Jessie explains the floating experience itself.
12:19 – Michelle talks about her tank experience, what it was like to have Deane present during the float to help her reset, and Jessie explains how him and Deane came together to combine hypnotism and floating.  Deane explains that hypnosis is really always self-hypnosis, how they ended up doing the hypnosis during the float, and Deane shares what providing hypnosis was like during the floats.  Michelle further explains the process of the float and hypnosis experience, what it was like to go through the visualization of the seasons, and Jessie shares that Deane will soon be providing Urban Float with visualization tracks that floaters can use during their float.
26:29 – Jessie shares what a float tank is and what is inside of it, Justin tells listeners where people can find each of them on social media, and Michelle talks about the benefit of having a place to relax post float.  Justin talks about how great it has been to see the new businesses come up in University Place, they recommend people to eat post floating vs before, and the different sounds from your body that has been heard while in the tank.  Michelle talks about the trigger points in the bodies muscles, Justin shares the other participants’ review of the hypnosis float, and Deane talks about how great it is to help people get out of their mind and focus on the moment.
42:46 – Justin talks on the importance of getting his daily early morning resets, Jessie shares what they are doing with athletic teams, and Scott explains how floating is great for recovery.  Jessie comments on famous teams and athletes that float, Justin talks on how the tank could help with his personal anxiety, and Jessie talks about the benefits floating has also for people that have PTSD.  Scott shares on the Float for Fibromyalgia Day, how the spine can stretch up to an inch in the tank, and Justin closes out with how listeners can find Deane and Jessie online.
