The eye care practices offered are a natural way to improve vision-related issues which many times stem from routine patterns of sitting in front of computers, televisions, phones, etc. These practices are especially recommended for those with Myopia (nearsightedness) or Hyperopia (farsightedness).

Our eyes are the windows through which we perceive and explore this world. However, today our eyes are constantly exposed to the glaring screen and therefore restricted to limited movements, be it because of sitting in front of the computer, television, or phones. As a result, our eyes gradually lose the flexibility in the eye muscles which impacts our ability to focus at different distances, commonly known as short-sightedness (myopia) or long-sightedness (hypermetropia).

Isha’s eye care program offers a natural way through yogic practices to improve these vision-related issues. The Eye Care Programme has been designed to correct these anomalies thereby giving us an opportunity to stop further deterioration of our eyesight, or the need to wear glasses or avoid the much invasive route of corrective eye surgery.

As well as providing relaxation to tired eyes and enhancing our concentration, these practices are highly recommended for the optimal health of eyes we so desire in today’s hectic life.

Class Guidelines

Arrive 10-30 minutes before the class starts. For your safety, you may not be able to join a session once it commences.
Observe silence when you come into the studio and until the class begins. It is a time to move out of your world of thoughts and come into the present moment and connect with yourself.
If you need support for your ankles or head or anything else, please bring a large towel or blanket with you.
Be mindful of the effect of strong perfumes on your fellow students.
Remove watches and noisy jewelry.
Leave handbags and personal belongings that are not required during the class at the back of the class or in your car.
If you have any injuries or are pregnant, please inform the teacher before the class begins. Many injuries can be accommodated if the teacher is aware of them.
If you are ill, have a cold or fever, please contact the teacher and your doctor before attending the class.
