This is a show that offers cutting-edge information on how to improve your vision and overall wellness through holistic methods. I so appreciate you spending part of your day with me. If you have questions you can send them to [email protected]. Now to the latest EyeClarity episode. The eyes originate very early in gestation, some say 17 days, you know, we see the optical vesicles starting to grow out from the brain. So every tissue of the eye is brain tissue. And it’s such a an absorbable part of us, and yet it’s not really acknowledged in a lot of ways. One of the things that you described this not wanting to be seen and pulling in is something called myopia, nearsightedness. And we’re at an epidemic around nearsightedness right now because of our near focusing. And the main emotion around myopia is fear. I don’t trust I pull in I tighten up I compress and then fast forward to an adult and this is why people are developing all these eye diseases because their tissue is compressed Emily is to talk about, you know, the eyes or one of the most unrealized tissues of the body. And astigmatism is a twist a body twist. So when you come out of the birth canal, and your body is twisted, this is astigmatism that makes more strabismus where one of the eyes is crossing. In Chinese medicine psychologically the right eyes, the father eye, the left eye is the mother eye. So the right is turning in the infant is turning away from his father. Now, there could be a lot of reasons why that might occur. Then there’s lazy, you know, one eye that he’s not seeing as clearly as the other eye again, you can look at the mother father relationship and the children absorb through their eyes, their parents relationship. There’s the midline problem where the two eyes are not tracking together. And there’s a underdeveloped midline that goes way back to you know, gestation. So there are a lot of visual cues and signals that maybe don’t get developed. I’m in the process of writing a blog right now on the somatic eye, and I am bringing in some of Dr. porges. His work on polyvagal and how it affects the vision we know affects speech language, auditory, right, but that vagal experience what happens with the vision piece. 03:37 Thank you for listening.
