Ayurvedic Eye Exercises

Ayurvedic Eye Exercises (1)
Anyone else’s eyes feeling the effects of staring at a screen more than usual? 🙋🏼‍♀️⁣
I know for me now coaching all online will have me on the computer double the previous amount I used to be and my eyes are starting to notice.⁣
I know I have clients who normally work office jobs complaining they feel it as well with more meeting via zoom and not in a conference room. ⁣

Here are 3 ideas I leaned in Shakti School with Katie Silcox that can hopefully bring some ease into eyes.⁣

Exercise 1

1. Focus on 3 things outside your window for 90 seconds.⁣
2. Close your eyes and focus on 3 things internally in your body or if you don’t want to go there just around the room you are in.⁣
3. Focus outside for 30 seconds looking at one thing.⁣
4. Focus internally for 30 seconds focusing on one thing.⁣
5. Stand up, shake it out, drink some water and hopefully feeling a little more focused.⁣

Exercise #2

Take a pen or pencil and slowly move it away from your eyes focusing on the top of the pen and bring it back towards your face. Do this 3-5x to relax and refocus the eyes.⁣

Exercise #3

Make figure 8s with your eyes do 3-5 circles each direction. I always encourage a lil shake up or stand up when done with these exercises just to refocus the mind and body. ⁣

Check out the sample video on how to do the above exercises
