Caring for our Eyes- the Windows to the World

Time to fess up and raise your hand! How many of you do any eye exercises? How many have done eye exercises in the past? Ummmm. That is a pretty poor showing of hands. But no worries- start now and make a difference! While teaching an EEM Foundations class in Dallas, TX 2 weeks ago, one of my students reported that after having done the daily eye exercises for 3 months, her right eye improved form 20/40 to 20/20! A senior faculty member of EEM reported that after 3 months of doing the eye exercises, including ones targeted for cataracts, that her ophthalmologist reported the cataracts were gone! There you have it, decide for yourself if this is “proof in the pudding”. So, let’s learn the 8 exercises in the Daily Eye Energy Routine (DEER) which takes 5 minutes or less:

1. Rub eyes when you awaken. When I was a child, we were told to never rub our eyes. In reality, rubbing the eyes, if done gently, engages the Stomach meridian, which has its high tide from 7-9 AM. Remember that this meridian runs right through the eyes?

2. Palm the eyes and rub the orbits while still in bed. This technique brings in fresh healthy energy to the eyes. In Japan, many schools include this exercise as part of the school day, resulting in Japanese children wearing fewer glasses!

Step 1. Rub both hands together and then shake them off. Cup both hands, placing them over the eyes (but not touching the eyes). Cross your little fingers over the 3rd Eye (between the eyebrows) while placing your thumbs over your temples. Make sure the fingers extend into the hairline. This posture increases flow into the eyes (the palms of your hands are dispersing energy from their south polarity); the thumbs are on Triple Warmer to calm the body; the crossing of the fingers is located over the Bladder meridian end points and at the point where the energy crosses from the right to the left side of the body and the fingers are at the Liver Neurovascular points (Liver meridian is the primary meridian associated with the eyes). Hold for 1 to 3 minutes. It feels juicy doesn’t it? Yeah. Ready for Step 2?

Step 2. Rub the orbits around the eyes to simulate flow, balance the brain circuits that receive visual stimuli and reset the muscles of the eye.

3. Be shifty eyed. Throughout the day move your eyes from close to far, from focus to scanning, keep your head straight while you look all the way to the left, to the right, up and then down. Keep those eyes loose in the head

4. While reading, working on the computer or text messaging, stop for a moment. Rub the orbits of your eyes around the eye sockets, and then palm them (number 2 above) for a minute or so.

5. Wash eye glasses in cold water at least one time per day. Did you know glasses collect stale energy, which gets stuck on the glasses and frames themselves? Just by running cold water over the glasses, this stale old energy is moved enabling your fresh energy to be free to circulate around your eyes without hitting crappy stuff.

6. Figure 8 around your eyes. There are 2 ways that help. The first is to figure 8 around the eyes like a mask-starting at the inner brow, moving around the top of the eye, around the bottom, back up to the brow on the other eye and repeating the pattern. Use both hands while your eyes are open so it deeply resonates into the brain. The 2nd is to make 8s in and out from in front of the eyes to about 8 inches into your field with the eyes open. Make at least 8-10 8s both ways.

7. Use good eye support ergonomics. Use good light, sit the correct distance and in proper posture when at the computer, watching TV, reading or driving in the car. Just be mindful.

8. Cover Eyes Exercise. Next week we will learn this exercise which feels so refreshing.

There we have it. These exercises enhance your vision, support the eye energies and make you feel better! We only have one set of eyes, so find the time to love those eyes! Be humble, be happy, and be appreciative.

Have fun with your energy! Next week’s topic is “Balancing Energetic Flow between the Eyes Improves Vision.”
