RELAX LIKE A CHILD

While it only lasts for a few sparse moments in your bed, you can achieve a prolonged theta state with Ganzfeld, a state of consciousness that is usually only seen in children and people who have spent years practicing meditation. Light Mask get you there effortlessly. With nothing to distract you, your level of concentration and knowledge absorption is astonishing.

Getting rid of all sensory input allows the ‘constantly-make-sure-you’re-not-dying’ part of your brain to chill out for a while, allowing the creative, relaxed part of your brain to come out and play. Without the constant pressure of analysing the world around you, your body lowers its levels of cortisol, the main chemical component of stress. Your brain also releases elevated levels of dopamine and endorphins, the neurotransmitters of happiness, giving you a natural mood high which often lasts for days. Sensory deprivation effects us in another notable way; as our brains become stimuli starved, their reaction is to start creating their own stimuli.
