John Lennon’s ‘Mind Games’ gets a meditative makeover: Explore your subconscious with Lumenate

[Innovabble]

 

The John Lennon Estate has joined forces with the innovative meditation app Lumenate for a unique collaboration. This project centers around Lennon’s iconic 1973 track, ‘Mind Games,’ resulting in a series of meditation mixes designed to guide your mind into deeper states of consciousness.

 

 

About Lumenate

Lumenate isn’t your average meditation app. It leverages the power of light and neuroscience, utilizing research-driven stroboscopic light sequences emitted from your phone’s flashlight. These sequences are said to induce an altered state that bridges the gap between deep meditation and classic psychedelics. Developed by entrepreneurs Tom Galea and Jay Conlon, Lumenate aims to democratize subconscious exploration, making it readily accessible on your smartphone.

 

The concept of using light to alter consciousness isn’t new. Its roots trace back to the early 1960s, with the emergence of stroboscopic light experimentation on the fringes of mainstream culture. Lumenate draws inspiration from the Dreamachine, a device created during that era by Beat Surrealist artist Brion Gysin and scientist Ian Sommerville.

 

 

Beyond Relaxation: A Tool for Mental Well-being

Lumenate goes beyond mere relaxation. It serves as a powerful tool for mental well-being. The app helps users combat stress and anxiety, offering relief from tension. It facilitates exploring thoughts and feelings from a fresh perspective, potentially breaking free from unhelpful patterns and unlocking valuable insights. This can lead to increased self-awareness and introspection. The app even offers sessions designed to neurologically guide users towards a restful night’s sleep.

 

Lumenate’s Rise and Recognition

Officially launched in March 2021, Lumenate has garnered positive reviews. The app’s potential for self-exploration even attracted Golden Globe winner Rosamund Pike, who joined the team as Creative Director after experiencing its transformative power.
