THE SUN
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.
