In the 1930s, researchers found
that repetitive light stimulation (strobing) caused brain waves to follow and
pulse at the same frequency. Actually this effect has been known throughout
history. If you have ever watched a campfire, a flickering candle, or the dance
of moonlight on the water, you have discovered it yourself.
Today's mind machines have lights in glasses that
pulse at predetermined frequencies, generally from 1 to 40 cycles per second
(Hz). You close your eyes and get a strobe effect that can create colors and
patterns in your mind, as well as different states of awareness, attention,
relaxation, creativity, and receptivity to information.
Does it work? Absolutely. Much
research has proven the reality of entrainment and countless reports from happy
users testifies to the life-changing results you can expect. Want a quick power nap in the
middle of a stressful day or a boost to your productivity? Try our L/S
Voyager galaxy for a week or so and you'll become a believer!
Mind machine glasses use LEDs to
create a safe cool light strobe effect, turning on and off sharply enough to cause
the desired response in the brain.
By varying the phasing between
the left and right eyes, we produce a number of results. When the left and right
LEDs turn on and off at the same time, a focused state useful for concentrating
and analysis results. Pulsing them alternately left and right causes a diffuse
awareness, more creative and receptive. In addition, varying the pulsed sound
from ear to ear offers six possible modes of stimulation.
The L/S systems have
pre-programmed sequences of pulsed lights and sounds that typically start fast,
then slow to the target frequency, and speed up at the end to bring you "back"
to normal waking consciousness. The entrainment mechanism is both visual and
aural.
Use of special relaxation music CDs can enhance any of the Voyager Galaxy programs.
Pleasant sounds are much more enjoyable and relaxing than one-note beeps or
tones, such as those used by other machines.
In order to understand the
effect of pulsed light and sound (L/S), you have to try a system at home. Only
then can you decide if this technology can help you achieve your goals.
