PHOSPHENIC MIXING

Guide for using the Pocket

Phosphenic Lamp Kit
(with special light filter)

Light is the key to life and its

development, but light requires a concept
and a technique to be fully understood and
properly used: This is Phosphenism
In 1959 in France, Dr. Francis Lefebure, M.D,
school teacher and physician, started his research
on the stimulating effect of light on all mental
abilities.

He worked for more than 40 years on what

happens if we think about something specific in
the presence of phosphenes.

What are phosphenes?

A phosphene is a multicolored light that appears

in your field of vision after focusing on a source
of light. It lasts for about 3 minutes and changes
colors until it disappears.
Dr. Lefebure made an extraordinary discovery.
Mixing a thought with a phosphene, i.e.
phosphenic mixing, transforms the energy
of light into mental energy, enhancing and
strengthening our mental abilities.

Phosphenes have rather unique features.

They are not simply a curiosity of nature, but offer

simple, effective and useful daily applications
which were unknown before Dr. Lefebure’s
discoveries.

He was a true genius who published more than

30 titles on the results of his lifelong research.
Phosphenes produce an outstanding neurologic,
emotional and subtle activation.
And not only that, the moment you mix them
with a thought, a memory, an emotional charge
or an idea, their energy can be transferred to
the area associated with that idea, nourishing it,
fertilizing it, enriching it and purifying it.

How to do a phosphene:
1. Place the phosphenic pocket lamp in front of
your face, at a distance of 30 cm.

2. Turn it on and focus on the light for 30 seconds.

3. Turn it off. Keep it near.

At that point:
a) If you are in a dark room, you can watch the
phosphene with your eyes open.
b) Or, if there is light in the room, you can close
your eyes and cover them with your hands, or
use the eye mask. That way, phosphenes are seen
better.

The phases of the phosphene

Phase one (~1 ½ minutes): a round, yellow spot

of light surrounded by red appears.

Once you have done several phosphenes, the

yellow color becomes more like a translucent
greenish yellow, still surrounded by the red ring.

At the start, the phosphene is unstable; it can

pulsate, vibrate, disappear and reappear, and then
later stabilize.
Phase two (~1 ½ minutes): the red tint starts
expanding towards the center of the phosphene
until it is completely filled by it.

Right after that, the red tint dissolves and

becomes dark blue. After that, the phosphene
slowly disappears into a cloudy shape, with
tinges of dark blue, grey and black.

This description is only referential, as colors can

vary according to the sensitivity of the retina
of each person. The entire process lasts about 3
minutes.
Tips for working with a phosphene

Some practical applications for «phosphenic

mixing» (combining a thought with a phosphene).
1. Reading with phosphenes: improving reading
and comprehension

- Do a phosphene (focusing for 30 seconds on the

phosphenic pocket lamp) while you think about
the subject you are going to read.

- Turn the phosphenic pocket lamp off and start

reading. At the start, the phosphene will appear
over the text. This is called a phosphene by
projection.

For some people, it will be difficult to read with

the phosphene over the text. In that case, you can
light up the text with Dr. Lefebure’ s Phosphenic
Lamp 2008 ® (available at www.luznatural-
mentebrillante.cl) or use a natural light bulb.
The phosphene will no longer be seen, making
reading easier, and at the same time you will be
doing another type of phosphene, a phosphene
by reflection, which also has specific positive
effects on mental processes.

- Keep on reading, doing a phosphene every 5 or

10 minutes (focusing on the light for 30 seconds
each time). It is important to do phosphenes
regularly, neither too often nor not often enough.

Comprehension and memorization of what is

being read will be increased significantly by the
presence of the phosphene.

Even though you will not be able to notice it, it is

affecting you in a very beneficial way.
2. Studying with phosphenes: improvement of
concentration and of the efficiency of memory
- Do a phosphene before starting your study
session.
- If, during your study session, you want to
memorize something specific, stop reading,
do a phosphene and repeat what you want to
memorize during the presence of the phosphene.
- Once you have finished reading a chapter,
studying a subject, doing homework, preparing
a conference, etc, verbalize and repeat the text
during the presence of the phosphene (for more
effectiveness, wear an eye mask), reviewing
what you have just read or studied, repeating it in
your head or visualizing it inside the phosphene.
Academic results improve significantly. You will
also enjoy a state of calm, more assurance and
well being.

3. Solving a problem or difficult situation:

emotions, fears, traumas, meditations

- Think about the problem during the presence

of the phosphene, focusing on the situation only,
forgetting the phosphene altogether.

- Repeat the process and write down every

idea that emerges, mixing new ideas with more
phosphenes and so on. This process should be
repeated several times.

4. Studying mathematics and science

- Do a phosphene and read the math problem
several times.
- Focus on the phosphenic pocket lamp again,
but this time, just concentrate on the ideas that
emerge, without focusing on the problem any
more. This way, consecutive reasoning will
quickly manifest.

- In order to memorize a scientific or mathematic

formula, visualize the formula inside the
phosphene and repeat it mentally and verbally.

5. Studying a foreign language

- Read the text with the help of phosphenes
(projecting the phosphene on the text) just as it
was described before.
- Record your voice and listen to the recording
of your voice saying the word you want to learn
while you focus on the phosphenic pocket lamp.

- Stop the recording, turn the phosphenic pocket

lamp off and repeat the phrase out loud several
times, in the presence of the phosphene.

6. Improving sleep and insomnia therapy

It is very beneficial to do phosphenes before going

to sleep. You can do a phosphene and review the
opportunities you experienced during the day
or just observe the colors, allowing thoughts to
flow without effort. Usually, the quality of sleep
improves dramatically after a short time, thanks
to the energetic contribution of phosphenes.
At the same time, it contributes to the regulation
of disturbances of the circadian cycles (due to
jetlag or night work).

Thousands of people have been able to recover

sound sleep and rest deeply again, waking
up refreshed and feeling happier, thanks to
phosphenes.

Phosphenes have a particular effect on dreams,

making them brighter and more logical.

Doing phosphenes right after waking up is also

very beneficial for activating the mind.

7. For depression, increasing your vital energy

and improving your outlook on life
Phosphenes produced by the observation of the
phosphenic pocket lamp strongly develop your
optimism and vital energy.

People with depression can quickly overcome

their depressive states by using the phosphenic
pocket lamp several times a day. These are just
examples of the wide scope of phosphenes, their
potential and uses are endless.

Precautions before practicing phosphenic mixing

Focusing on the light of the phosphenic pocket

lamp for a short time does not present any danger
for your eyes. On the contrary, it is an excellent
exercise for the eyes, utilized and prescribed by
certain visual reeducation systems.
We advise you to use only Dr. Lebebure’s
Phosphenic Lamp 2008 or the phosphenic pocket
lamp, as they have been safely and effectively
tested for over 50 years.
The use of any other type of lamps or bulbs and
their possible harmful effects are the exclusive
responsibility of people who use them.

Contraindications

1. Severe Glaucoma.
2. Having undergone eye surgery in the past year.

Conclusion

In our hyperactive society, immediate results are

often expected.
Phosphenes do not work like that. You will not
notice any difference at first, after working with
phosphenes for just 24, 48 or 72 hours; but after
practising for one month, you will be surprised
by your achievements. You will realize that your
attention and memory have improved, and that
your artistic sense, your intuition and creativity
are more alive and develop naturally.
The more you practise, the sooner you will obtain
results. In addition, an inner sense of wellbeing
and joy will start manifesting.

How to use the Phosphenic Pocket Lamp

The phosphenic pocket lamp comes with 3 LR03
AAA batteries (1) which are to be inserted in
the end marked with close/open (2).
In the battery space, an arrow shows the correct
direction for placing the battery into the lamp.
It also shows the right polarity for the batteries.

The phosphenic pocket lamp has a switch with 3

positions (3). After pressing it a single time, it
produces a medium intensity light.

Pressing it twice produces a high intensity light.

You can choose to use the setting that works
better for you. Pressing a third time will make
the light flicker.

This mode can be used for the subtler aspects of

Dr. Lebefure’s method and should not be used
for educational or personal work with the lamp.
The right position for the phosphenic pocket
lamp is as shown in picture (4).
The distance should be 30 cm.

The phosphenic pocket lamp comes with a special

filter which should not be tampered with.

In order to avoid manipulation, access to the

LED has been blocked.

Any attempt to open the lamp will simply break

the lamp and impede its operation.

The phosphenic pocket lamp functions with a 1

Watt Ultra Bright LED that has a 50,000 hour
lifespan.
