Eye Exercise For You To Try
Here is an eye exercise that you can try. I received this in my email today from the Program for Better Vision Newsletter.
1. Close your eyes, relax your eyelids, forehead and face. Keep your neck and head still. Breathe easily and regularly.
2. Imagine you’re facing a clock, with your nose at its center. As you stretch your eyes all the way up, you can just barely see the number 12 at the top of this imaginary clock. (Remember, your eyes are closed.)
3. Starting at the number 12, rotate your eyes clockwise in a circular motion, around the clock. Stretch your eyes as you rotate them, but don’t strain or force the movements.
4. Repeat for 10-20 clockwise circles.
5. Change direction and make 10-20 circles in a counter-clockwise direction.
The article also indicates that most people carry at least some tension and rigidity in these muscles. Here’s how you can tell:
1. Your eyes unconsciously jump out of your control.
2. Sections of the rotation where the movements feel stiffer, more tense or stuck.
3. Holding your breath is a sign of tension. Remember to breathe!
Where in the movements did your muscles tense up? When did they jump out of control? What parts of the movements were not smooth?
With practice, you’ll be able to make all parts of the circular movement smooth and easy.
