Natural Hygiene, the original name of the National Health Association, has a long and impressive history. Much of the health and nutrition advise being touted today as “new” and revolutionary—such as the advantages of a plant-based diet, the incredible healing powers of the body, the role of fasting in the recovery of health, and the importance of avoiding unnecessary drugs and surgery—were promoted by Natural Hygienists as far back as 150 years ago.

Ever notice your vision changing throughout the day? đŸ€” What if “bad eyesight” isn’t permanent
 and getting worse with age isn’t inevitable? 👀

In Episode 161 of NHA Today, guest host Eileen Kopsaftis talks with Russian-trained ophthalmologist turned holistic vision educator Mila Casey about why vision can fluctuate and what stress, muscle tension, and modern visual habits might have to do with it.

After her own eyesight declined during a stressful period of life, Mila discovered the Bates Method and eventually improved her vision enough to stop wearing progressive lenses.

They also share simple practices like blinking, palming, and relaxing the eyes that may help support healthier vision.
