Lumenate uses the flashlight on the back of your phone to neurologically guide you into a state between that of deep meditation and psychedelics.

In this state you can expect to be fully immersed in the present moment, experiencing powerful closed eye visuals and allowing you to explore your mind from a new perspective.

We achieve this primarily through a method called Flicker Light Stimulation (FLS), via the phone’s flashlight, which leads to various subjective and neurological effects. One of the most notable of these is a mechanism called Neural Entrainment.

To discover more about how we achieve this, what to expect, and the latest research, see our other Science Behind Lumenate articles.
