Workshop: Reducing Stress During the Holiday Season

with Meir Schneider, Ph.D., L.M.T.

The body and eyes are far more interrelated than people realize. Poor posture, constricted upper body movement and muscle tightness all affect vision.

Did you know that the body has over 600 muscles, but most people only use 50? Learn how to relax those chronically overused muscles and use muscles that you’ve never used before, enhancing circulation and bringing the body into better balance.

Join Meir Schneider to discover a more alive way of seeing. Learn easy and effective exercises to improve vision– effective for near- or far-sightedness, cataracts, eye fatigue, glaucoma, retinitis pigmentosa, strabismus, amblyopia, computer vision syndrome and other vision disorders.

Learn to bring flexibility to your body and visual system during times of high stress during the holiday season.

Self-Healing Through Movement & Vision Improvement Workshops

with Jan Albin

I’m very excited to be the first to offer a place to learn Meir’s teachings in the Santa Cruz area and looking forward to passing my knowledge on to you.

Jan Albin lives in Aptos, California outside of the city in a beautiful peaceful environment just south of Santa Cruz and 40 minutes north of Monterey. She is a professional massage therapist who has diligently studied the Self-Healing Method with Meir Schneider and is a certified Self-Healing Natural Vision Improvement Educator. As a result of her studies she has personally improved issues with arthritis, and greatly reduced her dependency on glasses. In her practice she has worked with eye issues such as glaucoma and body issues of back pain and muscular dystrophy. Contact Jan Albin to preregister for one or all three consecutive workshops.

Meir is internationally renowned for his innovative and highly effective strategies which support people to change the way they work with and move their bodies and improve their vision.  His strategies are effective for those who are well and wish to maintain good health and function as well as those with neuromuscular conditions which respond very well to his teachings in movement, massage, visualisation and breathwork.

Until he was 17 years Meir relied on Braille, using Bates Eye Exercises, adding movement and self-massage, in 6 months, he could recognize large objects, at 18 he could read print without glasses and now has a California Driver’s Licence.  He has developed movement and breathing techniques to support many chronic conditions and enthusiastically shares ways to protect and improve sight and maintain high levels of well being for all.

He is in the UK to deliver workshops introducing his methods and assisting improvement for neuromuscular conditions, degenerative problems, those wishing to improve their eyesight and reduce age related deterioration. The workshops will focus on movement, visualisation and breathing techniques relating to specific conditions as appropriate.  They will also introduce eye exercises and strategies for vision improvement.

They are of interest to those with health needs but also to therapists and health professionals with an interest in a holistic approach to health

Discover your body’s innate power to heal itself! Join Dr. Meir Schneider to explore the principles of his ground-breaking method of Self-Healing through Bodywork and Movement, a powerful, holistic health-care program for the body and eyes. Learn how you can relax your eyes through facial massage and conscious resting and reduce the need for glasses, and prevent age-related vision deterioration. Learn how to use your muscles in balance, efficiently, to increase joint mobility, and circulation. Learn how massage, movement, and natural vision improvement can help you age with vitality.

You probably know that injury or disease can lead to degenerative conditions in the body and eyes, but did you know that your lifestyle or profession is just as hazardous to your health? Due to muscle memory from daily routine, a person– on average, uses less that 10% of their 600 total muscles. Just as these imbalanced movement patterns damage our bodies, our habits of staring at computer screens and relying on glasses cause us to ignore our peripheries and eventually deteriorate our vision.

Dr. Schneider will teach you how to relax overused muscles and use muscles you’ve never used before. Discover how to use your muscles efficiently, increase joint mobility, build a healthy back, and prevent degenerative conditions of the body and eyes. Come learn how to nurture and heal your visual system by developing healthy eye habits.

Take this workshop to improve your own health and that of your patients, clients or loved ones.

Workshop attendees may earn 6 CE units per day.

What is Vision Education?

Vision education, or holistic vision improvement, is a growing field in the area of complementary healthcare. Vision educators help their students take charge of their own vision. They teach important information and effective techniques which develop healthy vision habits.

Vision students learn how to lessen their dependence on prescription lenses, reduce eyestrain, improve their eyesight, and prevent degenerative eye diseases. Many who practice holistic vision improvement discover a deeper connection to themselves, to others, and to nature. Natural vision improvement often requires and nurtures a greater sense of awareness in the moment, and can lead to personal growth, and improved overall health. It is a journey of exploration and discovery.

Vision educators teach an educational process; they do not diagnose or prescribe; they work with medical professionals who provide those services.

Becoming a Vision Education teacher offers you:

Improvement for your own vision
The opportunity to provide an enjoyable, fulfilling, and much-needed service
The possibility of changing the current paradigm of vision care
A way of encouraging others to soften, relax, expand and connect more fully with themselves and the world around them
The freedom of self-employment and of setting your own schedule
Enhancement and diversification for your existing holistic health practice

Vision Educator Training curriculum includes:

Overview of the field of vision education
Exploration of the mental and physical aspects of vision
The Bates Method
Tools from Vision Therapy Techniques to relieve nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism and “middle-age sight”
Self-help and support for people with eye diseases
How to work with children
Ways to set up your practice
The art of teaching holistically
Integrating vision improvement with other holistic health practices

And more …

At the Vision Educator Training Institute you learn to design holistic vision programs for individuals as well as group classes. You discover how to work with people who have:

difficulty seeing clearly;
eyestrain, whether from reading, driving or computer use;
sun sensitivity
problems with eye co-ordination.

At the conclusion of this Teacher Certification, graduates have the opportunity to join the Association of Vision Educators, where you can list your business and get further support and education.(www.VisionEducators.org)
