I have done some meditation retreats in Thailand, different types, including hardest ones like Goenka’s. The state I would get in after 3 days and 30 hours of sitting meditation is similar to what I get in with a 15 min session on Lumenate. I’m not sure how it’s possible but it just does. That’s […]

Really wanted to like this app as I have aphantasia (inability to see in my minds eye) and honestly the first night I was really excited as I was seeing colors and patterns which I have never experienced. I felt the same way after the second night but the next day I had severe eye […]
I do enjoy buying applications to ones that I’ll use but I refuse to use subscription-based services. all these subscription-based services add up. too bad cuz I like your app. but it’d be much happier paying one fixed price for a specific version with specific content. I get it, you’re here to make money but […]
The introduction tutorial was easy to follow and it felt amazing. Interested, I paid for a month subscription. Did 10 mins of Befriending Sleep next and had a truly profound experience. I do not exaggerate when I say that I was in tears and against a vibrant field of green all I could feel, say […]
I am so glad I took a years membership to this App. I have real trouble falling asleep, even when I am completely exhausted. But, with Lumenate, especially the “Drift off” session, the soothing music and pulse flashing lights, I fall asleep. I do wish it went on longer than 20 minutes. But all I […]
I have tried and used several wellbeing and meditation apps, but saw an advert for Lumenate and gave it a try. There is an introduction and a free demonstration experience, and after using this a few times was amazed and surprised at the experience. I downloaded the full version to try some of the other […]
I’ve been using this for several months now, on average 2 or 3 times a week. I know I’ve not explored the programmes enough and should really be more adventurous. I find it effective for calming my overactive mind (possible ADHD, but not diagnosed) when I take my near-daily afternoon siesta. I only use the […]
As someone who meditates almost daily with the intent of reaching an altered state this app helped kick me into that state almost instantly, nothing has helped achieve that so quickly and with the addition of helping journey in a way I’ve never done before. Definitely recommend if you’re experienced with meditation and if not […]
It does take me out of my head, by keeping me in my head, oddly enough so that’s nice. Thing is, I’m a hypnotist and I’m used to both having and inspiring very vivid waking dreams in trance. This doesn’t manage that at all, for whatever reason. It’s overload but the deepening and guidance is […]
I have aphantasia and am auDHD and can never get my head to quiet down. This app helps me see colors and shapes and scenes with my eyes closed that I wasn’t able to before and it quiets my mind, something I was never able to do with regular meditation. I highly recommend paying for […]
Don’t think I have ever left a review. I thought I would just do the trial because I can never calm my mind to meditate. Somehow the light flashing made me be able to stay present and really feel the de stress and relaxation intended. Also, I have severe insomnia only relieved with meds I […]
The most intense light show I have ever experienced. It’s like you’re in the middle of a firework show. So intense you almost have to look away. Overwhelming. I see every color and shape. It looks like a kaleidoscope. I imagine that is what it would look like to be on psychedelic drugs. I want […]
My stress levels have dropped considerably since I started using Luminate. The “intentions” that I visualize during sessions pop up all day long, but not in an intrusive sense, or in a way that makes me feel pressured for all of the things I haven’t accomplished yet… More like a gentle, encouraging hand that makes […]
Very nice, relaxing music which helps shape the vivid visuals induced by the light. I haven’t used psychedelics, but this truly felt like how it’s portrayed and described by others. Only two free experiences in free version, but the Deep Exploration open session is repeatable and I find it very appealing as an unguided model […]
I don’t think I have ever found a mobile dream machine where I can rehearse some of the later stages of secret practices. I have only used it a few times, but seems very good to learn how to effectively look beyond the geometric flashes and into visions without having to get to the state […]
first day using the app, over an hour’s worth of sessions. certainly this will be well worth the yearly subscription (today, alone, was worth the cost). another user’s critique of the journal is spot on.. accidentally swiped and lost an entry. why no confirmation pop-up? it was a 5 song playlist to a c.y.o. soundtrack […]
hallucinations were subtle, not the problem though. After using the app, my flashlight on my phone wouldn’t turn on, said it was on, but wasn’t, AND the camera app would immediately crash after trying to open it, and the camera was otherwise not working until I restarted my phone. Needless to say I think, that’s […]
Please add the feature to use this app with the Zflip phone closed. I get a message stating to ensure maximum strobe performance the phone needs to be… it cuts off there. I assume it says something along the lines of open. Using it with a stand up wireless charging base, the optimal position would […]
I have to be honest, I first downloaded the app because of the involvement of Rosamund Pike. Not even knowing that she actually does some of the guided meditations. That was definitely a wonderful plus. The ones she does are my favorites. I have really enjoyed more than a couple of the meditations. I have […]
Trying the app is easy and might very well help some people, but like everything to can be even slightly beneficial, someone has to put a price tag on the health and wellbeing. I can see paying a one-time fee, but a constant monthly charge is just another leech on my neck I can’t afford. […]
