EYE CULTURE
 
The  following  exercises  will  assist  you  to  improve  the  quality  of  your  eyesight.    
Apply  these  simple  exercises  for  a  period  of  90  days  and  SEE  the  results.    
Be  sure  to  remove  your  eye-­‐glasses  during  the  exercises.  
The  following  3  exercises  should  be  carried  out  in  the  morning.  
1.  Eye  sunbath  
Sit  in  a  comfortable  chair  facing  the  morning  sun  -­‐  depending  on  your  latitude  -­‐  
at  least  2  hours  before  the  mid-­‐day  sun.  
Look  at  the  sun  momentarily  in  order  to  get  the  right  orientation.  
Close  your  eyes  gently  at  once.  
(It  is  dangerous  to  look  at  the  sun  -­‐  we  are  only  trying  to  'feel'  the  warmth  of  the  
sun's  rays  directly  on  our  eyes  once  they  are  closed  -­‐  this  can  be  done  quite  
easily  by  adjusting  the  head  until  the  eyes  'feel'  the  sun's  rays.)  
Sit  with  your  eyes  closed  for  from  5  to  15  minutes.  
 
2.  Eye  water  bath  
Immediately  after  the  sunbath,  fill  an  eggcup  (not  an  eyebath)  with  cool/pure  
water.  
Put  your  left  hand,  palm-­‐down,  on  a  table.  
Bend  your  body  forward  so  the  face  will  be  parallel  with  the  floor.  
Apply  the  eggcup  gently  to  the  right  eye  with  the  right  hand.  
Blink  the  eyelids  50  times  into  the  water.  
Discard  the  water  and  refill  the  eggcup.  
Place  the  right  hand,  palm  down,  on  the  table.  
Apply  the  eggcup  to  the  left  eye  using  the  left  hand.  
Blink  your  eyelids  50  times  into  the  water.  
Dry  the  eyes  by  pressing  a  folded  handkerchief  to  the  eyes.  DO  NOT  RUB.  
 
3.  Palming  exercise  
Immediately  after  the  water  bath,  sit  at  a  table  with  your  body  against  the  table  
and  your  elbows  on  the  tabletop.  
Cup  the  left  hand  and  place  it  diagonally  over  your  left  eye  with  the  edges  of  your  
hand  on  your  left  cheek  and  the  fingers  crossing  over  the  bridge  of  the  nose.  
Now  cup  the  right  hand  and  place  it  over  the  right  eye  with  the  edges  on  the  right  
cheek  and  the  fingers  crossing  over  the  left  fingers.  
Move  your  fingers  so  all  light  spots  will  be  excluded  
When  you  can  see  perfect  blackness,  let  your  eyes  close  gently.  
Stay  in  this  position  for  from  10  minutes  to  half  an  hour.  
 
The  four  exercises  that  follow  may  be  done  at  any  time  of  the  day.  
 
1.  Clock-­‐dial  exercise  
Sit  in  a  comfortable  chair  that  is  placed  against  a  wall  in  a  large  room.  
Imagine  there  is  a  clock  dial  painted  on  the  far  wall.  
-­‐  12  will  he  near  the  ceiling,  
-­‐  6  will  be  near  the  floor.  
-­‐  9  will  be  near  the  left-­‐hand  junction  of  the  walls  and  
-­‐  3  will  be  near  the  right  hand  junction  of  the  walls.  
Without  moving  the  head,  look  at  1,  then  2,  then  3  and  so  on  until  you  come  to  
12.  
Repeat  this  several  times  then  close  the  eyes  for  a  few  seconds.  
Then  look  at  12,  then  11,  then  10  and  so  on  until  you  arrive  back  at  12  again.  
Repeat  this  several  times  and  close  the  eyes  for  a  few  seconds.  
Now,  look  at  12,  then  at  6,  then  at  9,  then  at  3.,  then  7,  then  1  and  so  on  until  you  
have  looked  at  all  of  the  numbers.  
Repeat  several  times  and  close  the  eyes  for  a  few  seconds.  
 
2.  Accommodation  exercise  
Sit  out  of  doors.  
Look  at  a  distant  object  such  as  a  house  or  electric  light  pole  about  one  hundred  
yards  away  for  one  second.  
Now,  look  at  the  tip  of  your  nose  for  one  second.  
Look  at  the  distant  object  again  and  then  at  your  nose.  
Repeat  several  times  and  then  close  your  eyes  for  a  few  seconds.  
Repeat.  
 
3.  Blinking  exercise  
Sit  in  a  comfortable  chair  holding  a  newspaper,  magazine  or  book  about  20  
inches  from  your  eyes.  
Commence  reading  by  looking  at  the  letter  at  the  top  left-­‐hand  corner,  reading  
each  letter  across  to  the  right  until  you  arrive  at  the  bottom  right  hand  corner  of  
the  page.  
Each  time  you  look  at  a  letter  you  blink  your  eyes,  pass  on  to  the  next  letter  and  
blink  again.  
When  you  have  completed  reading  the  whole  page,  close  your  eyes  for  a  few  
seconds.  
 
4.  Neck  exercises  
Sit  in  a  straight  back  chair  with  your  legs  twisted  around  the  leg  of  the  chair.  
Rotate  the  head  slowly  to  the  right  20  times.  
Rotate  the  head  slowly  to  the  left,  20  times.  
Rotate  the  head  a  little  more  vigorously  to  the  right  20  times.  
Rotate  the  head  a  little  more  vigorously  to  the  left  20  times.  
If  this  makes  you  dizzy  you  may  overcome  the  dizziness  by  throwing  your  head  
backwards  breathing  deeply  in  and  throwing  the  head  forwards,  breathing  out.  
Repeat  3  times.  
Add  5  rotations  each  day  until  you  can  do  50  rotations  each  way  daily.  
Note:  
-­‐  The  neck  exercises  are  to  be  done  gently  -­‐  do  not  push  yourself  further  than  you  
are  able.  
-­‐  The  aim  of  the  neck  exercise  is  to  increase  mobility  and  improve  circulation  and  
nerve  force  to  the  head  area  -­‐  including  the  eyes.  
-­‐  Pay  particular  attention  to  your  breathing  while  rotating  the  head  Note:  Do  not  
hold  your  breath  -­‐  relax  and  breathe  rhythmically  and  diaphragmatically  during  
all  movements.  
 
The  key  to  vision  improvement  is  Relaxation.
