Your Eye Health And Emotions

Your Eye Health And Emotions

It is said that the eyes are the windows of the soul. This statement could not be truer. Since the beginning of the use of lenses for poor eyesight, man has been wondering what causes poor eyesight.

There Is Nothing New Under The Sun


There is nothing new under the sun. Man has discovered and lost knowledge over the centuries. Dr. Wm. H. Bates M.D., Ophthalmologist discovered in the early 1900’s the cause and cure of eye problems. He found in his research that stress in the mind interfered with the natural focusing muscles of the eye. He discovered that vision is psycho-somatic. When the mind is tense, the eyes are tense. He discovered that emotions played an important role in the cause of vision problems

The Eyes Are Tools Of The Mind

The eyes are tools of the mind. Just as ulcers and heart attacks are caused by prolonged stress (psycho somatic illness), so is the vision affected by stress. These stresses are always accompanied by changes.

Fear At The Root Of Eye Problems

Alone with the physiological reasons Dr. Bates took it a little farther. He noticed that fear created mental strain and stress and affected the eyesight.
What is fear? Fear is created when we experience a change from the norm such as people moving, changing schools, a divorce, a death, career changes or a difficult relationship. These changes create stress and an element of the unknown which evokes fear. This fear is usually repressed as a survival mechanism and never dealt with again.

Whether nearsighted, farsighted or if you experience glaucoma , cataracts,
astigmatism or any other eye problems, all eye problems begin with the initial cause of fear or fear of anger. If you look back to the beginning of your eye problems you will probably find circumstances that evoked fear on some level. You may have been aware of it briefly but because of lack of opportunity to express it or the fear was too much to bear you quickly repressed it as a survival mechanism and never dealt with it again. Fear occurs at all ages from young to very old. Using Eye-Robics And The Rapid Healing Technique together is beneficial in that if fear comes up it is easily transformed from the energetic system into love.

Why Should You Keep Your Eyes Healthy?


Eye Health Advantages

Whether you experience glaucoma, cataracts, astigmatism or any other eye problem, keeping your eyes healthy has so many advantages. The old saying, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” could not be truer when it comes to eyesight. If you look around you, you will not find many people in the “golden years” who do not wear glasses or many who have not been in glasses for many years;. so many have some kind of eye problems. Doctors attribute this to “old age”. You may not even have to look to people in the “golden years” to find this situation. Eye problems come at all ages and in all forms. These situations can be prevented.

Healthy Eyes

My definition of healthy eyes is seeing clearly far and near and experiencing comfort when doing tasks that require using the eyes extensively. Dr. Wm. H. Bates M.D., Ophthalmologist discovered in the early 1900’s the cause and cure of eye problems. He found in his research that stress in the mind interfered with the natural focusing muscles of the eye. He discovered that vision is psycho-somatic. When the mind is tense, the eyes are tense. He discovered that light sensitivity is an indication of the onset of eye problems. He discovered how to regain healthy eyes and keep them healthy for a lifetime
.

Physical Therapy For The Eyes

I call the Dr. Bates method “Eye-Robics” because it describes this method so well. It is physical therapy for the eyes. We live in the 21st century, but we have a long way to go. It is my dream to see the day when a child has a vision problem that the parents look into what is going on with the child. To simply fit the child with classes and move on is masking the cause of the problem and sentencing him/her to a road of poorer and poorer eyesight and unhealthy eyes. This over a long period of time results in eye problems later on in life. Dr. Bates discovered that behind the myopia, hyperopia or presbyopia was unconscious fear and anger. He was a true pioneer in the field of vision therapy.

Eyes Can Be Healthy For A Lifetime


It’s never too late to improve your eyesight!

Have you have been caught in the vicious cycle of getting stronger and stronger prescriptions. Do you find yourself experiencing tired eyes, discomfort in your body or head, difficult reading even with glasses, headaches, computer eyestrain, dry eyes, sensitive to light or a slave to sunglasses? These are all symptoms of eyestrain and mental strain.


The Cause And The Cure Of Eye Problems

Dr. Wm. H. Bates M.D., Ophthalmologist discovered in the early 1900’s the cause and cure of eye problems. He found in his research that stress in the mind interfered with the natural focusing muscles of the eye. He discovered that vision is psycho-somatic. When the mind is tense, the eyes are tense. He discovered that light sensitivity is an indication of the onset of eye problems.

Wore Glasses For Ten Years

I myself wore glasses for ten years before learning the Bates Method of Eye Training. I call it “Eye-Robics because it describes the process so well. It is physical therapy for the eyes. I never liked wearing my glasses. When I first went into glasses I asked the ophthalmologist if I needed to wear them all the time. His answer was, “If you want to see”. It took ten years before I learned about the Dr. Bates Method. A friend went to a health conference and there was a small segment of it talking about the Dr. Bates Method. She told me about it and I found a teacher in my town and immediately took lessons.

I was so excited to see how my vision improved. In a matter of weeks, I no longer wore glasses, I could function and in a matter of a few months my vision returned to normal (clear vision). That was almost 40 years ago and I am still seeing clearly.


Eye-Robics gives you the tools to keep your eyes healthy for the rest of your life. Once you go through the process of regaining clarity, you know how to take care of your eyes for the rest of your life. You know because you have dealt with the cause, removing the symptoms. It is easy because you become so much more aware of the stresses in your life. The “Eye-Robics" tools teach you how to release the stresses as they may come up. Whether you experience glaucoma, cataracts, astigmatism or any other eye problem, Eye-Robics will benefit you for a lifetime.

Eye Health And Light


Eye Health And Light

.Light Research


John Ott a light researcher found that natural light through the eyes, not through glasses, contacts or sunglasses is vitally important for the health of the mind and body. He has authored two books on the subject, “My Ivory Cellar” and “Health and Light”. Dr. Wm. H. Bates, M.D., ophthalmologist discovered the same thing in the early 1900’s.


Research; The Cause and Cure

Dr. Wm. H. Bates M.D., Ophthalmologist discovered in the early 1900’s the cause and cure of eye problems. He found in his research that stress in the mind interfered with the natural focusing muscles of the eye. He discovered that vision is psycho-somatic. When the mind is tense, the eyes are tense. He discovered that light sensitivity is an indication of the onset of eye problems.

Light Sensitivity The First Sign Of Stress

Whether nearsighted, farsighted or if you experience glaucoma, cataracts. astigmatism or any other eye problems, you may be able to trace the onset of an eye problem with light sensitivity. Light sensitivity is the first symptom of mental strain and Dr. Bates discovered that mental strain is the cause of eye problems.

Prevention And Cure

There is a way to release mental strain and tension, regain your ability to handle sunlight and restore your eyesight even if you are already in glasses/contacts or had lazer surgery. This method developed by Dr. Bates, I call Eye-Robics, because it describes this process so clearly, physical therapy for the eyes.


Our Body Is Energy

Normal eyes vibrate at the rate of 60 times per second. Eyes with glaucoma, cataracts, astigmatism, nearsightedness, farsightedness or any other of the numerous eye problems do not experience this natural state of mobility and vibratory rate. The purpose of Eye-Robics vision training is to normalize the eyes to their natural state of 60 times per second. We are all made of energy. This energy is blocked through mental strain and tension. Eye-Robics teaches you how to release the mental tension and unblock the energy that is so vital to eye health. You can learn how to accept the sunlight again as you once did and regain healthy eyes. visit http://www.eyerobics.net for more information and details.

TO LAZER OR NOT TO LAZER, THAT IS THE QUESTION?




Vision Training Institute Inc.


TO LAZER OR NOT TO LAZER, THAT IS THE QUESTION?
ARE YOU CONSIDERING LASIK SURGERY? READ THIS FIRST!

Whether you experience nearsightedness, farsightedness or astigmatism, having surgery instead of glasses or contacts does not change anything. Surgery is changing the focal length surgically but does not do anything to change the cause of vision problems. The FDA is currently re-investigating some of the surgery procedures advertised because of so many consumer complaints.

Glasses, contacts and surgery do work, but only as a temporary fix. They can be likened to a pair of crutches. They have no long-lasting benefits. Your eyes get worse no matter what when relying on corrective lenses or surgery. They do not work with the cause, they treat the symptom. Whether your nearsighted, farsighted or have astigmatism, if you are considering having lasik surgery you really need to know all the facts. If you understand how the normal eye functions then you will have better insight to make the decision that is right for you.

In the normal eye the six outer muscles work in perfect harmony contracting and relaxing changing the focal length much as a camera does lengthening the eyeball for close seeing and flattening the eyeball for distant seeing.

These six muscles work in perfect harmony flattening and lengthening the eyeball changing its’ focal length where ever you put your attention. This is called eye-mind coordination. All normal functioning eyes do this. When we have a vision problem it is due to one or the other set of muscles being contracted (tight, tense) and not letting go. If it is the muscles that flatten the eye that are holding, the person is considered farsighted (presbyopic, hyperopic). If it is the muscles that elongate the eye that are holding, the person is considered nearsighted (myopic). This holding is caused by stress in the mind affecting the involuntary focusing muscles of the eye.

Knowing this fact of how the eye focuses then you can understand that in lasik surgery, the cornea is cut changing the focal length just as a lens does. The only problem is the muscles are still holding and if one gets under more stress and these muscles tighten up even more as has happened in the past (stronger and stronger prescriptions) then the focal length is changed and the surgery is not right. You now have a cut eye that you cannot uncut. At least with glasses and contacts your eye is intact. If muscles can tighten up, they can loosen and return to normal. A cut eye can never return to normal. Surgery is not the answer to good eye health!

ARE YOUR EYES SENSITIVE TO LIGHT?

VISION TRAINING INSTITUTE INC.


ARE YOUR EYES SENSITIVE TO LIGHT?


Are you a slave to sunglasses? Or do you just think that they are cool, because most people wear them. Some years ago glasses came out called transitions that changed into sunglasses when you went out into the sunlight so you would not have to have a second pair. Most people found that before wearing them they were not sun sensitive. After wearing them and letting the lens do the work, the eyes became lazy and did not want to do the job anymore, thus the person became sun sensitive and dependent of sun glasses.

The eyes were made to function in light. The muscles around the pupil (called the iris) are designed to function in light and darkness. In daylight the pupil contracts and lets in the exact amount of light so we can see. In darkness it becomes larger, expands and lets more light in so we can see at night. At night the peripheral nerves do our night seeing. In daylight the macular (center of sight) does all of our detailed seeing. When sunglasses are put on this inhibits the muscular functioning of these muscle, thus with lack of use, the muscles are tight and do not do their job. Sunglasses rob the eye of natural functioning.

Sun light is very healthy for the eyes, no matter your eye problem, glaucoma, cataract, astigmatism, nearsightedness, farsightedness and all other eye problems. Eyes need light. Animals that live in darkness are blind. Many years ago, mules were made to work in mines. They became blind and had to be brought out into the sun on a regular basis to regain their sight. In the Eye-Robics program there are specific instructions for overcoming sun/light sensitivity.

Light/sun sensitivity is the first sign of mental strain or tension in the mind. Have you ever noticed after a stressful period such as studying for an exam, or difficult relationship issues, like a divorce, or a death that you were very sensitive to the light? This is a symptom of stress in the mind and is the first symptom that occurs prior to having a vision problem.

ARE YOUR EYES HEALTHY AND FIT? WHY SHOULD I IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF MY EYES?

Vision Training Institute Inc.



ARE YOUR EYES HEALTHY AND FIT?
WHY SHOULD I IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF MY EYES?


These are such great questions. There is a way to keep your eyes healthy and fit. If your vision is 20/20 and the demands on your eyes are not causing you physical strain in you eyes, head, neck or back then you have healthy eyes. Most people have been getting stronger and stronger glasses for many years. If you look around you and in care homes, you will find that the “Golden Years” are not so “Golden”. So many older people have cataracts, macular degeneration, ptosis (drooping eyelid), glaucoma etc. Most all of these conditions are a result of stress which causes lack of functioning and circulation. The eye care industry deals with this by putting on crutches, glasses, contacts or surgery. This condition over a period of time causes deterioration.


Dr. Wm. H. Bates, M.D., ophthalmologist discovered over 90 years ago the cause of eye problems. He removed cataracts, dealt with glaucoma, strabismus, astigmatism, nearsighted, (myopia), farsighted (presbyopia), macular degeneration, literally all vision problems. For instance, he found that when he removed the cataract lens of a patient the eye still accommodated which according to his training was not possible. The theory then as now is that the lens alone does all of the accommodating. Dr. Bates went into the laboratory and found in his research that the ocular muscles are responsible for accommodation. The lens moves in harmony with the elongation and flattening of the eye.


The Bates Method is physical therapy for the eyes. The process allows the muscles to return to functioning and therefore a healthy state allowing good circulation. The benefits are the tremendous stress reduction on the autonomic nervous system. Dr. Bates says, ”All vision problems are nerve problems”. So the answer to the questions "Are Your Eyes Healthy and Fit?' and, “Why should I improve the health of my eyes?” is, Healthy eyes do not have eye diseases.
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Eye-Robics teaches you how to have fit and normal vision or keep your vision fit.
