Hey everybody, its Dr. Sam, I want to welcome you to my podcast today. So I’m going to talk briefly about lifestyle tips to help you improve your eyesight and vision is a really simple things to do, maybe you haven’t thought about them, but I have, and these work. So number one, you want to use your blue blockers for evening screen time. Or if you’re under LED lights, so anytime after 6pm You should be wearing your blue blocking glasses. And of course, I like the blue blocking filters, you know, the ones I’ve made, versus the blue blocking tint. And I go into a lot of different video blogs on why I recommend the filter over the tint. But basically, the filter blocks the blue light without darkening the screen or creating an imbalance of color that comes into your eyes. And we know that you know light and colors of food and if you start wearing a lot of tinted glasses, for long periods of time, what’s going to happen is this creates an imbalance of color going into your eyes, which is going to deteriorate them. Alright, so number one, wear your blue blockers for evening screentime. Number two, don’t put your contact lenses or your glasses on first thing in the morning when you wake up. So go without them for 15 minutes, 30 minutes an hour, you know, while you get your tea or coffee or you’re meditating or, you know, go without them. And notice what you see what you feel. This is so great. In terms of accessing neuroplasticity, you know, I did a course a couple months ago. part one part two on neuroplasticity and one of the things that I recommended for people to open up new pathways and perceptions in vision is to take your habitual glasses and contacts off.

In certain non demanding situations that opens up the brain, it opens up the vision. And yes, it’s not comfortable and there’s, you know, blur you’ve got to deal with or distortion or disorientation. That’s all really good stuff to see and feel as a way for you to move out of the reinforcing influence that the glasses or contacts have on you. And then number three, do three minutes of suffering and palming daily to get rid of I stress. You know, one of the things the eyes are really good at is absorbing stress. And for most people, they have no idea how to discharge, this stress that gets accumulated. I mean, if you think about it, you’re focusing on a screen at 20 inches all day or your phone and the muscles are going to get fatigued because they’re working in one position for a long period of time. So the stress just builds up builds up and this lowers the circulation and creates compression in the tissue dries out the eyes does a lot of negative things. And so you’ve got to do some neutralizing and that’s why I like to go outside with my eyes closed point my face towards the sun. And I do my sunning for a few minutes. Morning and Evening outside eyes are closed. So you’re you’re going to be protected from any damage from the sunlight by closing the eyes. And then the palming exercise. You know, on my website, I talk about something called the poem hum, we’re actually putting sound into your eye tissue. While you’re palming, you can find that video readily available.

So those are the things that help get rid of stress. So to summarize, wear your blue blockers in the evening. Number two, don’t put your contacts or glasses on first thing in the morning and number three, spend three minutes twice a day doing your sunning and palming to get rid of your eyes stress. So I want to thank you for joining me today. Until next time, take good care.
