Hah! Back in 2010 when I was a teenager and before I had tried drugs of any kind I became fascinated with something called I-doser, which are "binaural beats" marketed as audio drugs. They basically offered mp3 files which would emit sound waves which would allegedly mimic certain drugs. After reading success reports on forums, I tried a few and from memory it did slightly put me into a meditative state but nothing more.

Around that time I used something called the BrainWave Generator https://www.bwgen.com/ https://www.bwgen.com/ along with files for astral projection/OOBE to try and train myself to lucid dream (did not work for me). Lots of trippy sensations listening to that stuff, though!

  Same, it's full of new age bullshit but those binaural meditation MP3s were really effective for meditation. Way more than other guided ones I found.

That’s funny, I remember finding those online around the same time. I wonder if it was the same thing?

What a time to be alive. We pulled that exact thing out on a school trip, and two of my classmates were so affected they literally collapsed. Placebo is kinda crazy. The entire thing doesn’t actually work, of course, but that scene did make me doubt, a tiny bit.
