Yoga for the Eyes with Sally Snowman, Ph.D.

The eyes are our windows to the world … with the need for movement, nourishment, and rest to stay healthy … as with other parts of the body such as bones, joints, teeth, and the like.  For many, the thought of “eye care” appears to occur when vision begins to fail … for which approximately 64% of adults and 26% of children in this country are currently wearing prescription glasses/contact lenses. 

Eye exercise movements facilitate healthy eyes … for maintaining or improving the eyes… or through the aging process, reducing or maintaining the current lens prescription. The workshop will walk us through a variety of  participatory activities with gentle stretching and chanting-toning accompanying the eye movements.
