Personally, I found that midday worked really well for me. It was half way through
the day, so it gave my eyes a great rest from work. Also, during the work week, I
was usually in the same location at midday, every day.
I found a place where I could be alone and undisturbed. A place where I could
concentrate, and devote my full attention to my eye healing.
I made it my ‘
sacred
’ place.
I can’t describe how fast the improvements came after I started taking it that
seriously.
Each and every day, I did my simple 15 minutes. It really wasn’t any effort at all,
once I’d set my mind to it, and decided that there would be no exception…
ever
.
Now here’s the interesting part…
I like variation. So I collected many different eye exercises.
To make sure I didn’t get bored, I often picked different exercises for my session.
After a few weeks, I’d learnt nearly 100 different exercises (I’ve put the best 40 or
so of them in this book) – I had a nice
menu
, which I could select from.
Then what started to happen, was that I automatically started doing
exercises at other times in the day when I could grab a few seconds or
minutes. For example, when I was driving the car, and the lights turned
red, instead of getting upset that I had to wait a few moments, I used it as a great
excuse to do a bit of Tibetan Peripheral Vision, or Yoga Sunning.
To make it more interesting, I even started to make up my own exercises, by
adapting the one’s I’d already learned.
