⛔️ BEFORE YOU READ: Some terms in this glossary may be dubious. They shall be marked with a “⚠️” symbol, usually with a short explanation as to why they’re suspicious.

A

#

B

  • Binaural Beats
    A binaural beat is a type of auditory illusion, where 2 different frequencies are played through each ear.
    ⚠️ For simplicity sake, I won’t be going into the specifics of binaural beats. However, know that the clickbait binaural beats videos you see on YouTube are pseudoscience at best; you might as well ignore binaural beats on your lucid dreaming journey.
