Improve Eyesight Naturally

Carlos Moreno wore glasses and contacts for over 22 years; today, he is free of both. Carlos corrected his own imperfect vision which included nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (presbyopia/hypermetropia) and astigmatism through the Bates Method & Natural Vision Improvement. An instructor and consultant in the method since 1997, Carlos breaks down how to improve our eyesight naturally. In today’s conversation, he goes over the three factors that improve eyesight, reviews how stress negatively affects our vision, and he even shares a practice that we can implement right away to help strengthen the eye muscles and help with overall relaxation, leading to improved eyesight and greater enjoyment in life.

Notes:

Highlights from the conversation include:

• what inspired Carlos to look into alternatives and to heal his eyesight naturally
• how some people’s vision improves beyond 20/20 after completing a Bates program
• The three factors that improve eyesight
• Marveling at“the magic of the body to transform a banana (or other food) into me”
• How stress can cause a host of health issues including poor eyesight
• How the famous proverb “the straw that broke the camel’s back” is an apt illustration for why our vision goes bad
• The importance of our nervous system being in a parasympathetic state in relation to our eyesight
• How the Standard Theory of eye issues differs from the theory that of Dr Bates
• Why lay people hold onto notable medical research and share it, though it is widely ignored by the medical community at large
• Why Lasik correction (created by Dr. Bates) does not fully get to the true root of eye issues
• Key exercises for improving eyesight*
• The importance of meditation
• How relaxation improves our mental state, our physical health, and our vision
