In my previous post, I talked about the  link between our mind and our eyes. What you see goes into your brain (mind) and you think is really also what you see.

Now, there’s a way to make use of this link to your advantage. Many alternative eyesight improvement teachers teaches their students to palm and imagine an image that you like – or something that relaxes you. For example, a sunny beach or perhaps your baby.

Anything will do so as long as it makes you happy.

Did you know that your iris enlarge when you see someone or something attractive? And that they shrink when you see someone or something unattrative?

I know, it sounds cruel but the fact is, your body literally wanted to see less of ugly things and/or people.

This phenomenon implies that there’s a very strong connection between your mind and your sight. Studies have shown that your eyes react to what your mind thinks.

In other words, your iris enlarge when you’re fantasizing… and your iris shrink when you’re having nightmares. Your eyes don’t rest when you are asleep. It “sees” whatever is in your mind.

Resting their eyes is one those crucial activities most people don’t do. I admit that I often forget about them too.

But I can tell you that doing any near point activities, for a prolonged period of time, is harmful for you eyes. That includes staring at your monitor, watching tv, cooking, housework, reading and so on. You get the idea.

The rule is to dedicate 1 minute to rest your eyes for every 10 minutes of work. I generally opt to rest 3 minutes for every 30 minutes.

When it comes to rebuilding vision, I’ve always recommended a holistic approach.As you might have known, supplements is crucial in helping your eyes work the way nature intended to.

But no matter how much vision improving supplements you gulp down, if you body cannot efficiently absorb and make use of it, it’s all a waste. Believe it or not, it occurs more often than not. Notice how you are consuming all those multi-vitamins and eating a healthy diet doesn’t seem to help improve your health… or it takes a very long time to have an effect?
