Its easy to see and feel the benefits of yoga on the body, strengthening and lengthening muscles, and making everything generally work better. We have some often overlooked and regularly overused muscles that tend to get left out of our yoga practice: the eyes. This becomes particularly important to most of our corporate yoga clients, who may be dealing with poor office lighting or long hours looking at a computer screen. While the idea in a yoga class is generally to keep the eyes soft and refrain from straining, there are in fact yogic exercises that can be done to help maintain and even build better eyesight. And because, who wouldn’t want to learn yoga from Paul McCartney, we’re including this youtube video for you to watch and learn. This would be a great way to spend a few minutes each day, wether you start your day with the eye exercises, or do them throughout your workday. If you spend long hours on the computer, remember to also look off into the distance at least every 15-20 minutes for a minute to give your eyes the chance to refocus. Remember, whether you struggle with vision problems or not, the muscles in our eyes are fragile and important, so ensure you are caring for them appropriately!
