the load that's on us and if we're not rested and at ease when we're looking at text

Our vision goes imperfect and then if we start squinning and staring and making an effort to clear things up. Our vision gets worse and worse until we get glasses and glasses do not fix the problem. They actually make it worse because you're teaching the body to be in a tense state

in order to look through these lenses and match up your eyes with that

the correction.

Hey guys, I'm Hilda Labrata Gore and this is episode 178.

Our guest today is Carlos Moreno.

Carlos has been a Bates Method natural vision improvement instructor since 1997

and he has a vision consulting business called Centred Vision in the Center for Wellness in Montebello, California.

In a nutshell, in case you haven't guessed it already, Carlos teaches people how to see clearly

without glasses, contacts, or surgery.

He himself wore glasses and contacts for over 22 years, and with instruction and practice of

the Bates method, he had the experience of correcting his own imperfect vision, which included near-sightedness, myopia,

far-sightedness, presbyopia, hypermatropia, and astigmatism.

In today's conversation he goes over the three factors that improve eyesight,

how stress negatively affects our vision, and he even shows us a technique that we can apply

while listening to the show today to improve our eyesight.

Just don't do it if you're driving down the road.
