What is the Ajna Light?

The Ajna Light uses flickering light to induce the same brainwave states seen in advanced meditation practitioners. These powerful white LED lights flicker at specific frequencies between 1Hz and 50Hz to entrain brainwaves into a range of trance states. It has the potential to take you into anything from a subtle, meditative state to a higher level of expanded consciousness. Many people experience varied altered states of consciousness during a light journey. An experience with the Ajna Light can facilitate deep personal transformation.


Top Benefits

  1. Calms down the nervous system and relaxes the body.
  2. Calms the mind.
  3. Deep levels of meditation.
  4. Float through different levels of consciousness without the use of psychedelic medicines.
  5. Deeper understanding of who you are and what your purpose is on this planet.


What to Expect During a Light Journey

The Ajna Light is placed above your head about 12 to 18 inches from the forehead. You’ll lie down and wear headphones to listen to music during the session. When ready, the light flickering will begin. Your eyes are kept closed for the full session. Many people experience a kaleidoscope of colors, shapes, or images while under the light and find it deeply relaxing. When the light sequence stops, your session has finished.



Cautions: If you or a family member have any history of epilepsy, you have sensitivity to flashing/strobe lights, or you’re taking prescription antipsychotic medication, please let us know. Precautions will need to be taken for you to have a safe and enjoyable light journey.


Testimonials

“My whole body was relaxed and I felt that I was in a very safe, energetic space. I was able to open up and let the universe lead me to where I needed to go, knowing I was loved. I got up from the light feeling calm and at peace as if I had been meditating for 10 hours, but it had only been 11 minutes.”


— Jeremy S., Self-proclaimed psychonaut and musician


“The Light is the number one tool I use for mind, body, and spirit alignment. Yes, I can meditate and find my center on my own, but it’s fun to go even deeper with such cool technology. I am grateful I live in a time where technology has advanced and helped us humans to remember our soul's purpose."


— Christie F, Sound Healer

“I was a bit nervous before it started. I had never experienced such luminous patterns up close before while getting able to relax under it. It opened up new dimensions I’d never felt. Allowing my mind to see with my eyes closed lying down, reached a new experience of sedation.”


— Brianna Avalos, Mobile Massage Therapist @cannamassagemovement
