This exercise involves focusing on the center of a three-dimensional cube without moving your eyes and observing the perspective for a few minutes without exerting any deliberate effort of will. What you should notice is that there are two alternating perspectives.
Now, as you observe these perspectives, try to count the number of seconds each one lasts. Are the durations equal?
Necker’s Cube
Vertical alternation: This staircase illustration possesses a unique trait—it can be perceived as inverted, presenting a symmetrical quality that reveals the brain’s capacity to analyze shapes beyond our initial perception. Additionally, this drawing can be interpreted as resembling a “folding screen” observed from above, dividing a room into two sections.
Irrespective of the interpretation of the drawing, some individuals may observe certain parts disappearing and reappearing at regular intervals. These phenomena highlight the rhythmic functioning of the brain’s two hemispheres. Attention, memory, and cognition rely on the regular alternation of brain activity.
Twin Stairs
The alternation is indeed regular. Congratulations! This indicates that the exchanges between your brain’s two hemispheres are consistent, and your attention is adequate.
However, if the alternation is irregular, you may experience difficulty maintaining focus on tasks and tire quickly. Engaging in Phosphenic Mixing exercises can help restore regular brain alternation and enhance your mental abilities.
THE BRAIN FUNCTIONS IN A RHYTHMIC WAY
If you observe the cube, you may notice that after some time, the perspective appears to change spontaneously, giving the impression that the cube is moving. While this phenomenon is commonly labeled as an optical illusion, it actually reflects a specific type of brain analysis. The fluctuation arises from the alternating functioning of the two brain hemispheres.
These simple observation tests highlight the rhythmic functions of the brain. If you didn’t perceive the cube changing position, or if the alternation was slow or irregular, it could indicate a cerebral imbalance.
Engaging in phosphenic techniques helps restore balance to the hemispheres, leading to an overall improvement in intellectual capacities.
PHOSPHENISM, THE EFFECTS ARE NO LONGER TO BE PROVEN, BUT TO DISCOVER
When we integrate phosphenes into traditional or modern exercises of individual development, their effects are greatly multiplied. This synergy results in the enhancement of memory, attention, intelligence, initiative, and creativity, rendering Phosphenism an exceptional educational tool.
Phosphenes serve as powerful catalysts for mental processes, enabling direct influence over our thoughts, their content, quality, and organization. This optimization significantly improves the outcome of cognitive processes and intellectual endeavors. It’s worth noting that phosphenes are the foundation of all of Doctor Lefebure’s discoveries.
Dr. Lefebure’s primary discoveries underwent verification by the C.N.R.S. (National Center of Scientific Research) at the P.T.T.’s Central Laboratory (Post Offices, Telegraphs, and Phones) in the 1960s.
Furthermore, in recognition of his contributions, Dr. Lefebure was honored with several gold and silver medals, including THE PRIZE OF THE ‟LÉPINE” CONTEST, renowned as France’s most prestigious inventions competition.
