The Lucia N°03 is a stroboscopic light machine that uses flickering light as a gentle form of brain entrainment while creating a profound visual journey to the inner consciousness of the user. Benefits include; deep nervous system relaxation, inner peace, an increased sense of emotional stability and access to brainwave states that would normally take years of meditation practice to achieve.
The Lucia N03 Light Machine was invented in Austria by clinical psychologist Dr Engelbert Winkler and neurologist Dr Dirk Proeckl. Its creation was inspired by a near death experience that Dr Winkler had at age seven. This life changing event altered his life so much that later, as a psychotherapist, he set out to empower his clients with the overwhelmingly beautiful experience of light by using a single very bright flashlight in combination with guided meditation.
Then his long-time friend neurologist Dr Dirk Proeckl suggested combining the warm solid light with a flickering light. This prompted the two of them to investigate the neuropsychological contexts of this combination in more detail. They examined the fact that when the brain is introduced to certain external light sources it does not recognize a difference between imagination and real events in key functional areas. Eventually they managed to achieve the desired “light experience” by using a combination of certain frequencies of pulsating light. This discovery meant that they could now use white light to create a journey to the inner consciousness of clients that would in turn prompt psychosomatic rehabilitation. And thus the Lucia N3 was born.
After performing tests with EEG devices they discovered a significant spike in brainwave activity that directly correlated with the rate of flicker being presented during the Lucia Light session. This phenomenon is known as photic driving, a form of brain entrainment. It’s what makes it possible for the Lucia Light to gently guide light travelers into the same brain wave states that are normally only present after years of practicing deep meditation.
When the brain is able to relax the central nervous system can easily enter the parasympathetic state. The parasympathetic nervous system is responsible for rest and digest conditions while the sympathetic nervous system is active during the fight or flight response in stressful situations. The main purpose of the PNS is to conserve energy to be used later and to regulate everyday bodily functions.
As the mind and nervous system relax the user, or “light traveler,” is transported into a state of visionary exploration. With closed eyes light enters the nervous system via the retina of the eye resulting in the experience of seeing astounding colors and sacred geometry. This unique meditation practice often leads to the hypnagogic light experience.
The hypnagogic state of consciousness is defined as the state between being awake and sleeping. Lingering in the carefree beauty of an eternal NOW is the nature and purpose of the hypnagogic light experience.
“The hypnogogic state is considered by many to be a “genius” state, without any boundaries or any limitations. When we are hypnogogic, we have access to all our resources and none of our self imposed restrictions.” (Brian Weiss, M.D., Through Time into Healing, 1992)
Dr. Dirk Proeckl recorded and studied EEG scans from light users to observe the effects of this form of light therapy. Below is a scan of a first time light traveler. He found that the frequencies generated by the light are then recreated in the form of spikes in brain wave activity after multiple Lucia Light sessions, as shown on the EEG scans below. This phenomenon is referred to as photic driving which is a form of non-invasive brain entrainment. It effects the alpha and theta brainwave states which are associated with deep relaxation and meditation.
An example of photic driving appears on the scan below. This EEG reading was taken from a light traveler who has undergone regular sessions that contained the frequency of flicker at 22 hertz.
Dr. Proeckl observed that when some individuals were exposed to one frequency of flickering light, multiple peaks in the brainwave frequencies would appear. Below is a different EEG scan taken from an individual who has experienced a Lucia session using a frequency of 22 hertz numerous times.
Instead of the typical photic driving response he saw that prominent frequencies also appeared at harmonic intervals of 11hz, 22hz, and 33hz. He also observed elevated theta and alpha waves which are found during meditation and states of increased presence. Simultaneously there is a noticeable decrease in beta brainwaves which are associated with the state of wakefulness and active problem solving.
This phenomenon becomes even more prominent with those who regularly meditate or undergo the Lucia N03 Light Experience. These harmonics have been demonstrated in the form of EEG readings taken from monks when The Lucia Technology visited a monastery in Tibet. The fact that these readings appeared during their first light session points the the fact that they spend extended periods of time in meditation and have already forged strong neural pathways that promote a deeply meditative state of consciousness.
This revolutionary form light therapy opens up new neural connections within the brain making way for new patterns of thought and understanding. Subtle reprogramming of the brain’s synaptic connections can not only help us to achieve deep meditation but over time help to change the way we react to stimuli in our everyday lives. The profound shifts in the way we relate to our environment can lead to a significant increase in quality of life and our relationships. It can also lead to increased creativity and mental clarity.
Many of us are in a perpetual state of fight or flight due to over stimulation and stored trauma. When we spend more time in the parasympathetic we give our bodies and minds a chance to rest, recharge and reprogram our trauma with the help of energetic light waves via this non-invasive form of light therapy.
It is our pleasure to invite you to experience the enhanced mental and emotional well-being that regular sessions with The Lucia N03 Practitioner System can bring to your life.
