Would you like to learn to improve your eyesight naturally?
Holistic eye doctors and Bates Method teachers are coming
together in Oakland May 22-23 to present at a conference
open to the public! As these two streams of natural vision
improvement come together, you¹ll learn and experience
things that can make a big difference in your eyesight,
whether you¹re near- or far-sighted, astigmatic, cross-eyed,
or suffering from a disease or injury of the eye.
Highlights of the Conference and post-Conference workshops
(May 24-26, 29-31):
- Ophthalmologist Ed Kondrot on homeopathy, energy work, and
microcurrent stimulation for the eyes.
- The Brain Gym approach to better vision.
- Dr. Roberto Kaplan of Austria and Canada, on understanding
the separate emotional worlds of left and right eyes, and
integrating them through patching. Dr. Kaplan on iridology
(limited to the first 20 people who register for this
workshop; they¹ll get digital photos of their eyes).
- Dr. Ray Gottlieb revisits the Bates Method and makes it
more workable.
- Meir Schneider, PhD, LMT (formerly blind vision teacher
who is now a licensed driver) on working with diseases
of the eye.
- Vision improvement for kids (and for playful adults).
- Groundbreaking new techniques for healing farsightedness
(presbyopia).
The methods employed by those giving lectures and workshops
include behavioral optometry, the Bates method, educational
kinesiology, psychotherapy, and more, but they all share the
common purpose of teaching people to see clearly sometimes
for the first time in their lives.
There willl be a special day for Vision Educators and
professionals on Friday, May 21. In addition, post-
conference workshops will provide a chance to study more in
depth with many of the presenters.
