Exercise#1: BREATHING How you breathe is an integral part of your health and your vision improvement.

Smooth even breathing, deep and rhythmic helps us to center our attention on our

inner self. We concentrate on the steady intake and exhalation of breath. Air is taken in

all the way down to the bottom of the lungs. As it fills the lungs, they expand and our

stomach pushes outward. As we exhale pushing air up slowly from the bottom of the

lungs our stomach contracts. Most of us breathe very shallowly. We contract our lungs

pull our stomach in and lift our shoulders when we inhale and push them out while we

exhale. This is backwards!!! This exercise is very soothing. It can be done anytime,

anywhere. It is difficult at first; so practice it patiently.

Instructions:

Do not wear any glasses or contact lenses if possible.

1. Sit on the floor or on a comfortable chair in a quiet room. Or stand in a balanced

position with your knees slightly bent.

2. Close your eyes gently

3. Notice the rhythm of your breathing

4. Inhale deeply through the nose. Try to let your shoulders remain down and loose.

Lungs are like balloons so let them expand as they fill imagining that they go all

the way down to your pelvic seat.

5. Exhale slowly and evenly through the mouth, pushing the air out from the bottom

of your lungs. Feel your stomach and chest flatten but do not squeeze the air

out. Let your lungs rest at the end of your exhale and simply allow your body to

Page 5: Copyright © 2012 Success Vantage Pte Ltds3.amazonaws.com/.../dldl/NaturalClearVision-EyeExercise.pdfHaving your eyes scan is the opposite of staring. Scanning objects in your environment

©NaturalClearVision.com Page | 5

begin its next inhale. Try not to force the inhale, but wait for the natural impulse

to breathe.

6. Repeat the inhale and the exhale letting a natural rhythm flow continuously. Do

not over breathe.

7. Concentrate all your attention on the intake and exhalation of air. Let thoughts

simply evaporate.

8. Let your eyelids hang heavy until they gently close. Your eyes should be

unfocused and the eye muscles relaxed. Let your jaw go slack. Your mouth

should be slightly opened. Say the word “Duuuuuuh" in order to help your jaw

drop.

9. Let your body move slightly to prevent muscles from becoming locked.

10. Continue breathing for three minutes.

11. When you open your eyes, don't look at anything in particular. Just let your eyes

open without refocusing so that they can momentarily receive light in the most

natural and relaxed way.

Practice this breathing technique as often as you wish with and without your

glasses/contacts on.

Exercise # 2: VISION AFFIRMATIONS Your attitudes and belief systems are extremely important to improving your vision.

Exercise # 3: PALMING Palming meditation gives your whole system a mini break - anytime, anywhere. Your

heartbeat will slow down; your breathing will become steady and relaxed. You will feel

tension dropping from your body.

The Technique

1. Sit with your elbows on a desk and put your face in your hands, cupping your

palms over your eyes. Don't press - your touch should be light and gentle.

2. Relax your shoulders and sink into the soothing darkness.

3. As you sit quietly, feel the gentle warmth of your hands permeating every cell of

your eyes. The vital energy transmitted through your palms fills your eyes with

energy, wisdom, and renewed clarity. Affirm to yourself that you will see clearly

and truthfully this afternoon.

4. Now visualize your third eye in the centre of your forehead (it governs intuition

and psychic awareness). Feel that area becoming energized. Affirm to yourself

that you will call on your intuition throughout the rest of the day - you will make

the right choices, the right decisions.

5. Rest quietly like this for as long as possible.

6. Come back to waking reality. Stamp your feet to re-establish contact with the

everyday world.

the shape of an infinity sign)

4. Let your eyes trace along the figure eight without moving your head. First, trace

blood flow. Having your eyes scan is the opposite of staring. Scanning objects in your

environment keeps your alive and energetic.

2. You can stand, sit or move around your environment.

3. As you look at objects, let your eyes glide over them as if you were painting them

with your eyes. Continue to breathe deeply and easily.

4. As your eyes shift from object to object allow them to move easily without staring

and continue to breathing and blinking. They should move in a relaxed manner

without any tension. Make sure to release any release any tension in the moth or

the jaw.
