SUMMARY KEYWORDS eyes, exercise, tracing, symbols, stress, thumb, feel, distances, muscles, prescription, focusing, doctor, brighter, destress, vision, circulation, closed, cataracts, nose, body Hello, everyone, it’s Dr. Sam, I’d like to welcome you to my EyeClarity podcast. This is a show that offers cutting-edge information on how to improve your vision and overall wellness through holistic methods. I so appreciate you spending part of your day with me. If you have questions, you can send them to [email protected]. Now to the latest EyeClarity episode. Alright, so I want to at least talk to you about the physical eye therapy exercises. Okay? This is where you get into the habits with your eyes. Like what? And you know, even say habits, what do you mean? Like how your brain and your eyes interface. There are certain skills in vision. So vision is different than reading the eye chart. Reading part is I'm looking at a chart. That's like your eyesight. But vision is this skill of how the eyes track an object. They focus, they change the focus with the muscles, the coordination of the eyes, how they work together, how well you're able to destress your eyes. Because one of the problems that happens with people is they don't know how to discharge the accumulated stress. I mean, our eyes are like a sponge. Absorb the environment they absorb. You know, so do you want to absorb stress? Or do you want to absorb therapeutic things? Right, so I'm just gonna go through a couple of possibilities. You don't have to do this, but I'm going to at least mention it. Okay, so the eyeball has six muscles that move the eyes around. And for most of us, we stay in a very tunneled, you know, position, we're not doing a lot of movement. So one of the exercise, basically using your thumb and kind of tracing something around the room. So let's do this right now. 01:59 Okay, cover your left thigh. 02:02 Okay, your thumb, come out. And pick something like across the room, it could be a shelf, a cabinet, a painting a window, and trace your thumb around the object. By moving your thumb like the thumb is tracing the edge. Be aware of your breathing, be aware of your blinking, do it in one direction and then do it in the other direction, then let me know when you're done. 02:35 Okay, okay, so you're done. All right. 02:41 So what I'd like you to do now is take your hay and put your hand down the thumb. Okay? And then take your hand away from me from the other eye. And now look around and give me an 02:55 impression. 02:58 What you see what you feel, when you eat reintroduce the left eye after you've stretched the right eye? brighter, clearer, more peripheral. 03:10 Yeah, it is a little brighter, actually. Yeah. 03:13 So the key in having good vision is allowing light to come into the eyes. Cover an eye and you do that kind of stretching, and then you reintroduce the eye, you're accessing something called neuroplasticity. 03:29 Okay. Yeah. 03:32 So you're creating a new new track a new pathway now that the right eye has changed.
