I can’t believe this works! I’ve been on and off using nytol for about 8 years because I sleep really badly but can’t always use nytol because it stops working after a couple weeks and have to keep upping the dose then trying to come back off it and not sleeping again so just been in that cycle for almost a decade because meditation and breathing methods and all that stuff has never worked for me I just really struggle to switch my mind off and keep it off for a decent nights sleep, but for some reason these flashy lights send me to sleep in about 15 minutes every night and put me into a proper sleep too where I don’t constantly wake during the night it’s amazing I don’t understand how flashing lights can be this effective but they actually really work for me! Couldn’t afford the subscription for a while but used some Christmas money I got for the year subscription and it’s so worth it! I don’t have any of the other effects people say about like seeing crazy images or anything but the ones for sleeping are sooo effective it’s insane! I don’t understand it at all but so grateful it works for me!
I use this every night now to help me sleep

This is the first app I’ve liked so much that I paid for it, and after less than a week of trialling it. I use it mainly to complement extended exhale breathing to quieten my mind before sleep, and generally this is a successful strategy for me. What it can’t do is keep me asleep when I’m profoundly stressed and that remains work in progress. The visuals are stunning, even achingly beautiful sometimes. I particularly like the ‘choose your own soundtrack’ mode where I can listen to binaural beats to augment the experience. I also occasionally use at work when I’m stressed, along with a Sensate, when I just need a break from all the noise in my head.Areas that could use further development: 1) each session seems to be 5 minute blocks put together, meaning half way through a 10 minute session the strobe fades out and builds back again over a minute or so and is a bit distracting, the same thing every 5 minutes in a 20 minute session - I don’t see the point of this, and 2) some of the music ends particularly abruptly rather than fading out gently; this can be quite jarring.

I stumbled across Lumenate through an instagram ad and when I heard “psychedelic meditation” I was instantly sceptical, the notion seemed to be too good to be true. But i was curious and wanted to be open minded so I downloaded the app and decided to try the weeks free trial. All I can say is Wow! Ive never experienced something so amazing before, although I didn’t see vivid images and visuals as other people have described, once I relaxed into the experience it was so beautiful, focussing onto the colours and moving components was insane. After a session you feel instantly more relaxed and I’m able to fall asleep instantly. I have made the most out of my free week trial and made sure to use it when I can and it actually made me excited to go to bed knowing I could do it each night. However, i’m an A level student and my part time job doesn’t pay much so whether I’ll pay the £9.99 a month or not I’m unsure, if I had the disposable income available it’d be the easiest decision ever. I cannot recommend this app enough, if you’re unsure, just try it! I can guarantee you will not regret it
Deep Depression Zapped
everyothernicknameadinfinitum
I had been suffering severe depression for over six months, with all the usual add ons associated including low self esteem, lack of motivation, inability to focus on my work. On top of this my marriage suffered a mighty blow last week which threatened to tip me right over the edge. THIS APP LITERALLY SAVED MY SANITY AND MY MARRIAGE Sorry for the all caps! It’s a yell of joy. I had no expectations whatsoever and in fact only downloaded the app because I thought it was just something to do with the Lennon Mind Games remixes, having caught the end of the Sean Ono Lennon interview recently on 6Music. I had no idea what I was about to experience when I did my first session. I think the effect of the sessions is accumulative. The visuals are getting more complex and more intense. The feeling of the literal lifting away of my hideous depression is palpable. I have been in tradition therapy before, and honestly, this is way better for me, for a teeny fraction of the cost per yearly sub. A drop in the ocean. But even the free version is enough to keep me on the road to recovery and feeling like my normal self.
