Eye Exercises
Yoga practitioners place a great accent on the eye exercises.
By working out the eye muscles they are able to prevent any
possible problems caused by loss of tone and vitality of these
muscles, which usually appear once the person reached maturity.
Eye tensions not only reduce the ability of the eye to focus at
different distances, but they also cause a great discomfort,
due to the fact that the eyes are connected to the brain via
the optic nerve.
Eye exercises are recommended not only for preventing eye
illnesses, but also for improving the sight and curing minor
dysfunctions of the eye. A lot of people are interested in
correctly performing these exercises. In order to proceed with
eye exercises routine, make sure you are comfortably sited,
with your eyes wide open. It is important that your back is in
a straight position, your hands are on your knees, your body is
relaxed and your head remains straight. During the period you
perform the exercises your body should remain in the same
position and no part of your body should move except for your
eyes.
Choose two reference points: one on the wall and one on the
floor and repeatedly raise and lower your eyes on those points.
This move represents the warm up for the exercises. Then, once
you feel prepared, move your eyes as upwards as possible and
then as downwards as you can. It is recommended to repeat the
moves 5 times and then blink quickly in order to allow the eyes
to relax.
Repeat the exercise, but, this time use reference points placed
to your right and to your left, at your eye level. Once you
repeated the exercise 5 times, do not forget to let the eye
muscles rest.
