Yoga – it’s all the rage. Hot Yoga, Couples Yoga, Laughter Yoga, Acro-Yoga – all great in so many ways, but have you ever heard of Eye Yoga?

Practicing eye yoga; a series of eye exercises, may help you to overcome various eye-related problems by strengthening those muscles.

Start by splashing eyes with cold water a few times and make sure to keep your head and spine erect when doing the exercises.

Here are a few to get you started.

1) Rub your hands together briskly and when they are warm place them over your eyes until they cool down.  Repeat this soothing move a few times.

2) Blink 10 times very quickly, close your eyes and relax for 5 breaths.  Repeat 5 times.

3) Stand or sit with a clear view of the horizon, arms by your side. then focus on the tip of your nose for 3 breaths concentrating on your inhale. Look back to the horizon focusing on the exhale for 3 breaths. Repeat 10-20 times.

Eye Yoga for better eye health – it’s just one more way to live Your Life, Unlimited!
