I've been using a "God Helmet" recently.

Myself and a handful of others have been using this device, called a "God Helmet", for several months now and the subjective reporting tends to cluster and lines up with what you would expect.

Stimulate the hippocampus and you'll get into a more "wordless" space that feels much like a deep meditation for me. Stimulate the amygdala and you'll get an improved feeling of well being.
I'm not a brain scientist or a researcher, just exploring on my own, but based on what i've read, the effects fall in line with expectations.
The device was developed by Dr Persinger and has been used in a number of published experiments in peer reviewed journals.

Is anyone else here playing with devices like this? So far my experience has been very positive and surprising in some respects. I'll be happy to answer questions if anyone has them.
