Open Eyed Palming

I like this one, because I love to feel the energy from my hands play with my eyes, and when I keep my eyes open, I can feel it more strongly.

However, one of the main reasons for palming, is for the eyes to experience blackness, so if I am going to do palming with open eyes, I make sure I am in a darkened room.

If you’ve got a room with no windows, that you can make completely dark, so dark that you can’t even see your hand in front of your face, that’s a great place to do some palming.

Palming - Tips and Techniques

1) Palm daily for at least 5 minutes.

2) First, rub your hands together vigorously until they get HOT.

3) Cup your hands and put them over your closed eyes.

4) Relax everything, especially your eye muscles, brow, tongue, face, jaw,
teeth, neck and shoulders.

5) Now relax your thoughts! Let go of worries. Just tell you mind that you’ll deal
with everything in 5 minutes, but to leave you alone just now! Your mind
won’t object too much to that, it's used to being put off.

6) See black. Visualize black velvet.

7) Feel the healing energy from your palms entering your eyes.

8) Will (ask) your eyes to heal themselves and return to perfect vision – but do it
gently.

9) Breathe gently and fully throughout the exercise.

Palming

After rubbing your hands for about a minute to warm and energize them, place each palm over one eye.

The palms are slightly cupped, so that they do not touch the eyelids or eyelashes.

The fingers rest on your forehead, either crossed or parallel. The elbows rest on a table or on your knees.

All light is now shut out, and you can enjoy total darkness.

Palming can be done for short or long periods, at any time, as long as you enjoy it.

If you get bored or tense, get up and shake your body for a minute, or do something else for a while.

Exercises for Perfect Vision

Palming:
This is an absolutely essential part of your eye healing routine.

Eye Muscle Training :
These can be simple ‘eye gymnastic’ exercises, or ‘focus training’ exercises.

Other Exercises: This sectiion contains some exercises which do not focus on the eyes, but on some other part of the body.

The Face

இரு கைகளையும் நன்றாக தேய்த்து, முகத்தில் மசாஜ் செய்ய வேண்டும். விரல்களால் முகத்தில் மிருதுவாக தேய்க்கவும்.

*******

Warm your fingers by rubbing them together and begin with your jaw. Always begin very gently and notice what you feel and what effect it is having on you.

Work outward from the point of your chin under and behind the ears. The point directly under the ears is often very tight. Opening and closing the jaw is a good idea as well as yawning.

Work from the bridge of the nose outward over the cheekbones and up toward the temples. Use circular strokes on the temples. Continue on the eyebrows, working outward from the center using long strokes. Use your fingertips to stretch out the brow, and alternate with picking up the brow with your thumb and forefinger and stretching it out.

Often a point between the brow is very tense, so use small circular motions on this area. Another delicate point is in the indentation outside the bridge of the nose on the inner edge of the eyebrows. This is also an excellent acupressure point for the eyes.

Massage

மசாஜ் செய்து கொள்வது நல்லது. இங்கு எளிமையான மசாஜ் செய்வது பற்றி பார்ப்போம். இது கண்களுக்கான பயிற்சியை தொடங்குவதற்கு முன்போ அல்லது பின்போ செய்யலாம்.

******

Massage is great for this, and here’s a simple massage you can do on yourself, whenever you have a spare moment or two. It’s also great to do this before and/or after your daily 15 minute eye exercise session.

Stretching the eye muscles

இரு கண்களையும் இருக்கமாக மூடி, சிறிது கசக்கி விட்டு கண்களை திறக்க வேண்டும். புருவம் மற்றும் முகத்தை சுருக்கி விரிக்க வேண்டும். இதை சில தடவைகள் செய்ய வேண்டும்.

******

Close both eyes tightly, squeeze them closed and open them suddenly, arching your brows and stretching your face. Repeat several times.

Look up as far as possible, look down as far as possible, inhale on up, and exhale on down. Blink rapidly a dozen or so times. Look as far right as possible, look as far left as possible and blink rapidly again. Look diagonally up to left, down to right,up to right, down to left, and blink rapidly. Rotate your eyes in circles, clockwise and anticlockwise. Try with your eyes open and shut.

SunGlasses

Sunglasses shield your eyes from the life-giving sun. They are not good for your eyes at all, except in drastic circumstances such as a bright sunny day in the snow covered mountains.

Wearing sunglasses all the time can lead to photosensitivity or even photo-phobia (fear of light). Many eye specialists now warn against the excessive use of sunglasses. They say that it can cause blindness by paralyzing the eye-pupil.

If you are driving into the sunset or sunrise, use your sunglasses to reduce glare, otherwise leave them off.

Food for the Eyes

Sunshine is Food for the Eyes. The eyes thrive on the sun’s energy.

Go outdoors in the sunlight everyday that you can. Outdoor people generally have better vision than people who spend most of their time inside. The best time to enjoy the sunshine on your eyes is in the morning before 11:00 am or after 3:00 pm.

The sun improves the eyes and pupils in many wonderful ways. For instance, it loosens tight muscles. The nerves and muscles just naturally let go of stress and tension, a leading cause of poor eyesight.

In the exercises section, you’ll find several ‘sunning’ exercises – they are amongst my favorites – but here’s one you can do whenever you get the chance, not just in your 15 minute routine.

Sit down, relax your mind and body; loosen your neck and shoulders. Close your eyes and swing your head slowly from side to side, with the sun shining directly on your face. If your eyes start to "tear" or "water", just let it happen, the tears are very healing.

Eye Bathing

This is the single most important exercise you can do to correct and improve your eyesight.

When I started ‘washing’ my eyes every day, my eyesight improvement accelerated way beyond anything else I did. At first it was a bit strange, but after a few days, it became just as normal as cleaning my teeth, and I did it morning and night.

Put three or four drops of lemon juice in an eye cup with purified water and wash the eyes with it daily/weekly or atleast monthly twice for about 20-30 seconds with each eye.

How to wash ?

•Ensure your hands are clean and dry.

•Pour the purified water into the eye bath until it's about a third full. Bend your head forward, holding the eye bath by its base.

•Place the eye bath over your eye and slowly raise your head with your eye open, so wash flows into it. Gently rock your head from side to side for at least 30seconds.

•If the eye bath is likely to be used by more than one person it is a sensible precaution to sterilize it by boiling it in water.

Special Reading Technique

When reading, you should look at the white spaces between the lines and not directly at the lines themselves.

The reason for this is that there is no effort involved in sweeping your eyes over a plain white background. Fixing the eyes on individual words and letters involves strain, and strain hurts your vision.

When a person with normal sight regards the white spaces with a sweeping shift across the page from margin to margin, he can read easily, rapidly and without fatigue. If the same person looks at the letters, the eyes grow tired and the vision becomes poor.

People who cannot read well at the near point always tend to fix their attention on the print. Consequently they see worse. Improvement cannot take place until they learn to look at the white spaces between the lines.

Reading can be improved by improving the power to remember or imagine whiteness. This improvement can be achieved in the following way…

Close your eyes and imagine something even whiter than the page before you - white snow, white linen, a white board. Then open your eyes again.

If your mental images of whiteness have been clear and intense, you will find that the white spaces between the lines will appear for a few moments to be whiter than they really are.

Repeat this process as a regular drill.

When your imagination of whiteness has become so good that you can constantly see the spaces between lines as whiter than they really are, the print will seem blacker by contrast and the eye will find itself reading easily and without effort or fatigue”

I love this technique. Not only does it help your eyes and make reading more relaxed, you will find that you actually read many times faster than normal!

Secret to Vision

The Retina’s "Yellow Spot": The Secret to Vision

The "Yellow Spot" is a part of the Retina that allows the details of whatever you’re looking at to be seen more clearly.

The middle bit of the yellow spot is called the ‘Fovea Centralis’. This part of the Yellow Spot ‘sees’ twice as well as the Retina itself, particularly in bright light. When you focus on a small object or read a book, you see with this part of the Retina.

Peripheral vision: the ability to see out the corners of your eyes In the normal eye peripheral vision is quite clear.

Peripheral vision is weakened by too much eye-squinting, close work and intensive mental concentration for long periods. These activities center your eyes' attention upon a single point only, and you begin to lose your ability to see peripherally. According to the legendary Dr. Bates, "The normal eye sees one thing best, but not one thing only."

Eye Anatomy

The normal healthy eye is almost spherical and is made up of three layers:


1. The Outer Layer (Sclera)
2. The Middle Layer (Choroid)
3. The Inner Layer (Retina)

The Sclera is opalescent, which means it has “a milky iridescence like that of an opal”!! Its center is transparent and is called the Cornea. Light comes through the cornea.

Behind the cornea, the second layer, or Choroid is visible. The Choroid Layer contains tiny blood vessels which transport blood to and from the eyes. When we do our exercises, one of our aims is to increase this blood flow, to get more oxygen and nutrition to the eyes, and also to remove waste products.

The Choroid layer contains the Iris (the part of the eye that is colored), with the Pupil in its center.

The Iris is like a circular muscle that expands and contracts to adjust the size of the pupil. This lets more or less light into the eye, and helps us to see perfectly, whatever the lighting conditions (or at least it does in a healthy eye).

The pupil, in the normal eye, gets smaller when looking at a distant object, and larger when looking at something close by.

Interestingly enough, the pupil also changes size according to the emotions. When you look at someone you love very deeply, or something that gives you great pleasure, the pupils get larger.

When you look at something you don’t like at all, they get smaller!

So now you have a way to know ‘who loves ya baby’!

Right behind the Iris is the Crystalline Lens, which receives the light as it passes through the Pupil and focuses it upon the Retina, just like you did as a child when you used a magnifying glass to focus the sun onto a piece of paper.

Connected to the Crystalline Lens by a tiny ligament, is the Ciliary Muscle, which controls the contraction and expansion of the Crystalline Lens. In other words, the Ciliary Muscle changes the shape of the eye’s lens and therefore changes your focus.

The third, Inner Layer, or Retina, is a continuation of the Optic Nerve, which is located at the back of the eye. Actually, it’s a direct outgrowth of the brain!

The Retina receives the light that is focused upon it by the lens and then sends signals to the brain. The brain interprets the signals and you ‘see’ the image of the outside world! Neat huh!

The Eyes...

Understanding The Eyes

Before we get started learning how to fix our vision, let’s understand a little of how the eyes actually work.

By the way, you don’t have to understand any of this in order to attain perfect vision. It’s for your interest only. Also, knowing a little about the eyes can help you see the logic and reasoning behind some of the exercises. This may help increase your confidence in your routine, which in turn, helps you stick with the program.

I thought for a long time about how much information to include here. It’s easy to get caught up in the biology and physiology, but to be honest, too much understanding can often side-track you from you goal of improving your vision.

So I’ve basically, ‘dumbed down’ the information, to give you a very simple overview of the mechanics of the eye. If you’re really interested in a detailed and in-depth description, there’s tons of information available on the net.

Just go to google.com and enter ‘how the eyes work’ as your search phrase. So if you like things to be very technical and detailed, and you’re a stickler for correctness, better skip the next section and do your own research.

The following is only a ‘rough guide to the eyes’ and intended for those who like their technical info on the ‘hurry up’.
