  Learn How to Develop Healthy Visual Habits with Meir Schneider


(dates coming soon)


Six-Day Natural Vision Improvement Workshop with Meir Schneider This is body-mind work: These exercises and techniques train the brain to have better connection with the eyes to create better vision. With practice, you can improve your vision permanently, put an end to eyestrain and discover a more relaxed, alive way of seeing. Working on your vision in a group setting is fun, effective and empowering, as people around you experience improvements with their own visual needs. Join Meir and the staff of the School for Self-Healing for a special six-day vision program to teach you healthy eye habits.

Day 1 - The general concepts and principles of natural vision improvement which will help you understand how lifestyle and posture affects vision and the interrelation of the body and eyes.  Discover how your daily routine affects your vision, how you are using your eyes and the importance of integrating healthy eye habits into your daily routine.
Day 2 - A deepening of the basic exercises critical for every condition. We will also address near and far sighted-ness, presbyopia, resting the central vision and stimulating peripheral vision.
Day 3 - Learn how to balance the use of the eyes and prevent domination of one eye over the other. You will learn eye teaming exercises that create relaxation and fusion. And we will cover specific exercises for strabismus, amblyopia and diplopia, which are useful for everybody.
Day 4 - Explore the body-eye connection and how to overcome and prevent pathologies like glaucoma, macular degeneration, cataracts, etc. Individual needs will be discussed.
Day 5 - Further explore the body-eye connections and how to overcome and prevent degenerative conditions of the eyes. Be proactive in working on your vision. You may be able to avoid invasive drastic treatment doctors deem necessary that could have detrimental side effects. This includes dinner and a night walk!
Day 6 - Learn how to integrate the techniques and principles you have learned into daily routines that work for you. This is an extraordinary opportunity to work on your own vision as well as to learn how to help others.

 2009 Lecture and private  Personal Coaching with Roberto Kaplan


The Art of Conscious Seeing
A Vision Improvement ONE WEEK HOLIDAY Seminar in GREECE using Digital Photography

with Dr. Roberto Kaplan.


The art of conscious seeing, is mastering how to use your inner vision.”

The instant feedback of digital photography gives one the opportunity to observe how we do not see with the eye, but through it. You can help problems of the eyes by increasing your awareness of how the eye view is an intimate part of your inner perceptual world. True seeing begins by having the correct perceptual consciousness.

Via eye practices, taking photos and digitally reworking the images, you will increase your awareness of how to better look through your eyes and enjoy conscious seeing. In this way you help your eyes and prevent future difficulties.

Come and experience the magical atmosphere of the island life of Lesvos in Greece. Roberto Kaplan will take you through a profound experiential journey of seeing yourself and then deeply connecting to your outer world, and have a well deserved holiday.

(Participants will need to have a digital camera and a connecting USB cable in order to download your digital photos. If you have a laptop computer this would be an optional item to bring. The Seminar is open to all people interested in seeing and photographic artistry, not just those with eye problems. Dr. Kaplan will be offering a limited number of personal coaching sessions for an additional fee.)

Where: Beautiful Seminar House Milelja-Inselgarten, LESVOS, GREECE
www.milelja-inselgarten.com
From: August 19, 2009 until August 26, 2009

Holiday on Eyes in Italy and Spain 2009, with Maurizio Cagnoli


Holidays and natural vision improvement in Italy

A real holiday of beauty and transformation for eyes, mind and body

We devote an average of 4 hours (+ occasional evening sessions) a day to our eyes, including guided visualizations, walks and rest, with frequent pauses for a cup of tea or a fruit salad or an ice cream. We take advantage of the beauty of nature and occasionally walk to enjoy the coolness of nights, appreciating the undisturbed darkness.

The courses will mainly happen in English (italian, german, french and spanish are also spoken). They are meant as a pleasant holiday in which you also have opportunities to refresh and improve your eyesight.

Where
- At Otricoli,Italy just between Umbria and Latium, 60 km north of Rome, in an old country house.

Vision Retreat
3 - 5 day retreat
It is the intention to co-create this experience in partnership with you over a weekend.  You will remember skills and awaken abilities but this is of secondary importance. What you are being is all that matters.  In this space you can create and experience your grandest version of the greatest vision you ever held about who you are.

The focus for this program is what it is you are being.  From this place the doing will result. You will remember skills such as meditation, and gain a clarity on your connection to the divine through intuition and basic muscle testing.  You will experience how the whole is greater than the sum of its parts through “Convesations: an inspitational game”. The outcome for this weekend is that you may be able to fully walk in your truth
