Did you know that your “vision” and your “eyesight” are not the same thing? Did you know that your eye health can impact your mental and emotional health as well? Most of us are familiar with seasonal affective disorder (SAD), but poor light or lack of full spectrum light affects just about everyone—even in the sunniest destinations in the world. On this week’s Yoga Talk Show, we’ll explore the Body-Eye connection with Dr. Berne.

------------
Listen & Learn:

  • How eyesight is static, but vision is dynamic and affected by dozens of factors
  • How emotional trauma can be stored in the eyes
  • The difference between sensation (visceral feelings) & emotion (the story associated with past)  
  • Why “light is food” and creates electrical impulses affecting your brain and body constantly
  • Why it’s essential to get at least 30 minutes of full spectrum light daily
  • How to hack your home environment for better light therapy results
