The Oriental Yang Eye Candle Gazing Technique

This powerful technique has been taught and practiced in the East for thousands of years. According to the ancient texts, this technique will give you"glowing magnetic eyes" and allow you to"look anyone in the eye without fear or timidity".

Sounds good doesn‟t it? Here‟s some more…

"This Yang Eye Technique not only improves the eyesight, but also alleviates many eye problems and latent ailments within the body. The whites of the eyes become clear, full of lustre, and shine with brightness."

OK, let‟s get on with it!

1. Light a candle, sit in front of it, and place it at arms length and at eye level.

2. Gaze steadily at it without blinking.

3. Breathe naturally, stay relaxed, and continue gazing at the candle for five minutes without moving your body.

4. Try not to blink or move your eyelids at all.

According to the Taoist Masters, less movement brings more magnetic power and control into the eyes and the entire nervous system.

After a short time, your eyes may start to water - this is GOOD! Keep your eyes open and allow the tears to flow down your cheeks. If you can, open your eyes wider as the tears flow.

Every minute or so, close your eyes and count to ten, then open them and gaze again at the candle, without blinking.

Finish by closing your eyes and palming for a couple of minutes.

Yoga Sun Gazing

Do you want…

Magnetic healthy eyes?

A steady powerful gaze?

The ability to approach life situations without fear?

As well as a great eye healing exercise, the ancient Yogis used "Yoga Sun Gazing" as a daily meditation to infuse the body, mind and spirit with healing solar light and power.

This exercise also helps to relax and heal stress and tension in the mind and the eyes.

How to do it

Go outside at SUNRISE or SUNSET when the sun is red or orange. DON‟T DO THIS EXERCISE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY WHEN THE SUN IS FULL IN THE SKY!

Open your eyes wide and look at the sun. Take several deep but gentle breaths.

Feel the sun‟s energy going into your eyes and down to your belly button - if you can‟t feel it, just imagine it.

After sun gazing, gently cover your eyes with your palms for a few minutes, whilst visualizing black velvet.

Notes:

If you live in an area where you can see the sun rise or set, then make this one of you regular daily exercises - it‟s incredibly powerful. If you don‟t get to see a sunrise or sunset very often, just learn the exercise so you can make the most of it when you do.

The Healing Tears

Kriya Yoga Tratak Eye Technique - The Healing Tears

The tears created by this exercise are very special. They will soothe and cleanse the eyes, wash away toxic residues and pollution from daily life, and they contain extra-ordinary healing properties not yet known to western medical science.

How to do it

Put a black dot on a small piece of plain white paper or 3x5 card, and fix it to the wall, at eye level. If you are nearsighted, make the dot about the size of a ping pong ball, if you‟re far sighted, make the dot nice and small.

Sit about 3 or 4 feet (a meter) away from the wall.

First, you need to get your eyes moving with some exercises.Don't move your head whilst you do this round of "eye aerobics‟!

Blink very quickly and as hard as you can 20 times Open your eyes wide and look up to the top of your head, then down to your chin.

Look far to the left, then to the right.

Then do the diagonal corners, all 4 of them

Now circle the eyes around in a large circle, twice slowly and once quickly. Do it clockwise and then anticlockwise.

Hold your thumb 12 inches (30cm) in front of you and focus on it. Then switch your focus to the wall for a moment, and then back again. Do this 10 times.

OK, now‟s a good time for a bit of palming.

Next, open your eyes as wide as possible and stare at the dot.

DO NOT BLINK OR SQUINT. Keep your eyes wide open. Keep your head absolutely still.

At first, this will be difficult, and the urge to blink will be difficult to control, but after a while, you‟ll be able to do the whole exercise without blinking once.

Keep staring at the dot, without blinking, squinting or moving your head until you begin feeling pin-pricks, twitches, itching or a slight burning sensation in your eyes. These feelings are known as Kriyas by the Yogis, and they are a sign that your eyes and optic nerve are being regenerated and healed.

Sometimes, the feelings are quite uncomfortable, and it‟s really hard to keep your eyes open, but do your best to keep them as wide as possible.

Soon after the sensations begin, your eyes will start to make tears, which is the very thing we are trying to do.

Once the tears start to flow, close your eyes and allow the tears to be absorbed.

When the tears have been absorbed by the eyes (10 to 20 seconds), wipe your eyes with a tissue, handkerchief or towel, and stare again at the dot until the tears return.

Do the routine at least 4 times during each session. Try to stay relaxed and at ease during this exercise, don‟t force or strain your eyes - keep breathing slowly and calmly.

Notes:

If you‟ve been using chemical eye-drops up to now, then throw them away and use this exercise instead … much, much better.

Over the days and weeks as you do this exercise, it may begin to take longer and longer for the tears to come. This is a great sign, and means that your eyes are healing!

Really Amazing Herb For The Eyes and Vision

Bilberry

Here‟s another really amazing "herb‟ for the eyes.

During World War II RAF pilots were forced to fly at night in order to accomplish any deep assault on Germany. Many pilots and their crew members complained of the poor visibility and its effects on their performance. It was just simply very difficult to work in the dark.

In one of the families of a flight leader, an older woman suggested using Bilberry jam as an aid to night vision.

Researchers found fifty years later what the RAF already knew, Bilberry's powerful effects increased Retinal purple by dramatic amounts in just twenty minutes .

Further research showed that the RAF pilots who survived and continued consuming the jam or other Bilberry products had several remarkable aspects to their health. The most noticeable was perfect vision both near and far as well as a complete absence of eye disorders throughout their lives. The group was absent of any circulatory or digestive disorders in their medical histories.

Another study showed Bilberry to improve eyesight and increase ocular blood supply in 75% of patients. It improved nearsightedness after 5 months of regular use while an 83% improvement in visual acuity was recorded after only

15 days.

One of the more encouraging statistics regarding Bilberry's visual enhancing properties is that over 80% of the people taking Bilberry for the first time improved on their visual acuity exam and passed a night vision test within 3 minutes of ingestion. Long term improvements took an average of 6 weeks with regular doses.

They're two of your most precious possessions, but probabilities are, you take your eyes for granted. Most of us do. But believe for a second what life would be like without having becoming in a position to gaze on your grandchild or your flower garden or even navigate the kitchen with no incident.



Stop Blindness America, a nonprofit organization dedicated to vision issues , estimates that 50,000 men and women lose their sight needlessly every single year and that 80 million Americans are at threat of eye diseases that can lead to low vision as well as blindness.




The good news: Probably the most frequent illnesses - age-related macular degeneration (ARMD), cataracts, glaucoma, and dry eye disease - are all preventable to some extent. Read on to see (pun intended) how you'll be able to get Stealth Healthy protection for your peepers. Just before we go any further, we have to let you know that the first step, should you smoke, is always to cease . Smoking increases your risk of cataracts, glaucoma, dry eyes, and age-related macular degeneration.

Blueberries are 1 of the richest fruit forms of antioxidants, and a study published in the Archives of Ophthalmology located that ladies and men who ate the greatest quantity of fruit were the least most likely to create age-related macular degeneration (ARMD), the leading trigger of blindness in older men and women .



2 . Spread bilberry jam on your morning toast. Or take a bilberry supplement every morning. The berries contain compounds referred to as anthocyanosides, which could defend the retina against macular degeneration.



three . Have spinach twice a week. Could be a spinach quiche, steamed spinach, or possibly Tuscan spinach - sautéed in some olive oil with garlic and raisins. Regardless, make sure to get your spinach. Studies find that lutein, a nutrient that is especially abundant in spinach, could avoid age-related macular degeneration and cataracts. Ideally, get your lutein in mixture with some type of fat (olive oil works fantastic ) for the most effective absorption.



four . Cook with red onions, not yellow. Red onions contain far a lot more quercetin, an antioxidant that's believed to defend against cataracts.



5 . Aim your automobile vents at your feet - not your eyes. Dry, air-conditioned air will suck the moisture out of eyes like a sponge. Aim the vents within your auto away from your eyes, or wear sunglasses as a shield. Dry eyes might be far more than an inconvenience; significant dryness can result in corneal abrasions as well as blindness if left untreated.




6. Move your personal computer screen to just below eye level. Your eyes will close slightly when you are staring at the pc , minimizing fluid evaporation and also the threat of dry eye syndrome, says John Sheppard, M.D., who directs the ophthalmology residency program at Eastern Virginia Medical School in Norfolk, Virginia.

A significant study suggested that if every American at threat for age-related macular degeneration took every day supplements of antioxidant vitamins and zinc, far more than 300,000 folks could avoid ARMD-associated vision loss more than the next five years. Other studies discover that girls who took vitamin C supplements for at least 10 years had been 77 percent much less most likely to show initial signs of cataracts than those who took no supplemental C. So take a multi with at the very least 150 mg vitamin C, or take a separate C supplement.




8. Walk at the very least four times a week. Some evidence suggests that normal exercise can minimize the intraocular pressure, or IOP, in individuals with glaucoma. In one study, glaucoma patients who walked briskly four times per week for 40 minutes lowered their IOP enough so they could quit taking medication for their condition. It's also achievable - despite the fact that there's no proof but - that walking could also lessen your overall threat of creating glaucoma.




9. Eat fish twice a week. A study from Harvard researchers presented in the 2003 Association for Analysis in Vision and Ophthalmology's annual meeting evaluated the diets of 32,470 women and located those who ate the least amount of fish ( as a result finding the least quantity of omega-3 fatty acids) had the highest threat of dry eye syndrome. Even tuna fish (yes, the type that comes in a can) protected against the syndrome. If you can't stand fish, or are worried about mercury consumption, attempt fish-oil supplements to obtain your omega-3s.





10. Twice a week, walk away from greasy or sweet snacks. A 2001 study found that men and women whose diets had been high in omega-3 fatty acids and low in omega-6 fatty acids ( identified in numerous fat-filled snack foods like commercially ready pie, cake, cookies, and potato chips) were significantly less likely to develop ARMD than those whose diets had been high in omega-6 fatty acids and low in omega-3 fatty acids. In fact , if your diet plan was high in omega-6 at all - even when you nonetheless ate lots of fish - the protective effects of the omega-3 fatty acids disappeared.




11. Have sweet potatoes for dinner tonight. Since they are rich in vitamin A, these sweet spuds can assist improve your night vision.
