If you want to naturally improve your vision, take the steps now that will help you instead of hurt you.  Take more breaks during the day, close your eyes and think of pleasant things more often, get a good night sleep, think happier thoughts throughout your day, eat better, exercise at least 30 minutes a day.  Those are a few things that can start helping you today instead of hurting you more later on. ]]> http://www.2IMPROVEEYESIGHT.COM/80/vision/how-to-naturally-improve-your-vision/feed/ 0 http://www.2IMPROVEEYESIGHT.COM/40/vision/improving-your-vision-the-way-we-learn/ http://www.2IMPROVEEYESIGHT.COM/40/vision/improving-your-vision-the-way-we-learn/#comments Mon, 19 Apr 2010 06:08:53 +0000 Sarah Kitchener http://www.2IMPROVEEYESIGHT.COM/40/vision/improving-your-vision-the-way-we-learn/ Straining our eyes is one of the worst things we can do and can cause permanent damage.  Straining our eyes comes from years of bad habits, things that were taught to us as children.  It mostly begins around the time we start school.  Once we learn these bad habits without even realizing that they are harmful, we are now on our way to adulthood and the problems continue.  These bad habits we were taught in our youth are the reasons for our ailments later in life.As young children, we are naturally curious and eager to learn new things.  Any child just starting kindergarten or first grade will happily tell you how excited they are to start school.  As they leave elementary school and head on into junior high or high school, their enthusiasm tends to get less and less.  The thought of going to school is no longer fun.So what’s the big difference between first starting school and then attending all the years in between before graduation?  It’s because children are forced to spend hours every single day learning, studying and memorizing information that don’t even interest them.  Any subject that you are forced to learn that you are not interested in causes you to concentrate extra hard which puts strain on your eyes.  We don’t all enjoy the same subjects and as children, we have to study and memorize things in ways that are not fun or interesting. When you are forced to concentrate on information that is of no interest to you, that causes strain on your eyes.  How many people enjoy reviewing numbers on an analytical report at work?  Not all children enjoy the same subjects at school.  We know we all need a well rounded education and this shouldn’t imply that your education isn’t important.  It simply means that it’s time to start considering that there has to be a better way for children to learn.Dr. William Bates, a famous eye doctor, discovered The Bates Method.  This method consists of creating a large chart with commons shapes and letters that are familiar to school aged children.  This chart was positioned in the front of the room and the children were encouraged to look at the chart whenever they felt tired or overwhelmed.  By the children just glancing at this chart, it gave their eyes a chance to relax.  When you look at new material this can put strain on your eyes.  But when you look at familiar objects, the eyes start to relax.  Although this method was implemented into a few school and the teachers did notice a vast improvement, the board banished it from the classroom because they felt it was too distracting.  At this time, China is the only country that still teaches these methods.By teaching children to relax their eyes and not strain them at such a young age, their vision will remain sharp for years. ]]> http://www.2IMPROVEEYESIGHT.COM/40/vision/improving-your-vision-the-way-we-learn/feed/ 0
