As part of my ongoing series designed to help myopic people correct their short sighted (near sighted) vision FOREVER using a simple natural technique I am offering you in this post (and film which you will get to if you keep reading) the chance to learn how to measure your prescription at home, which is the first and most important step to take if you are intending to never wear corrective lenses again.
Take control of your prescription!
We must be able to take control of our own prescription if we are to complete this challenge, because as contradictory as it might sound, we will be ordering a bunch of new glasses online. Each one with a slightly weaker prescription, slowly coaxing our vision back to where we would like it to be.
Imagine looking up at night without your lenses and seeing the stars look like this! Okay, you might have to be in Bali for this particular view, but you know what I mean ;)
I shot this image in our eco community in Ubud, 2016 around about the time I discovered crypto. Even back then I was dreaming of perfect vision but didn't fully understand the best way to achieve it with the minimum amount of effort.
Check out this playlist of films if you have some time spare and feel like learning lots of useful stuff which will undoubtedly help you on your vision journey as it has helped me.
I read two books on eyesight/vision and learned as much as I could on this subject in Bali but only in the last few months did the Universe present me the SIMPLEST way to get this job done.
The Bates Method is very popular but takes around a two hours a day of your time, when combined with the meditations.
And who amongst us has two hours spare each day?
Yep. I needed a different system.
Now that I have found it I will be running the course starting NOW (so get your arses in gear!) in association with @naturalmedicine who you will notice me promoting from now on.
Endmyopia.org
Jake Steiner and his FB group have been ground-breaking for me, because every day I can see people expressing gratitude for their amazing results.
His method really works!
His basic methodology is as I have already described:
We must be able to take control of our own prescription if we are to complete this challenge, because as contradictory as it might sound, we will be ordering a bunch of new glasses online. Each one with a slightly weaker prescription, slowly coaxing our vision back to where we would like it to be.
It is important to remember that improvement doesn't come from reducing diopters, it comes from practicing something Jake refers to as ACTIVE FOCUS, so we are pushing our eyes to always work a bit little harder to achieve that clarity we seek, ultimately stretching those atrophied muscles back to where they once were.
Ordering glasses online, we will use the reduction of -0.25 per pair. For legal reasons Jake does not give us this actual figure, but he does say that to reduce by 1 diopter would be way too much. And the peeps on the FB group discussion all seem to be having great success with a reduction of -0.25 per pair of glasses/lenses.
So if you are -2, you're gonna need 7 or 8 pairs of glasses to get you back to 20:20 and it may take a year or two. Though some people in the group have done it much faster than this. Depends on your dedication to ACTIVE FOCUS.
All of this may sound like a lot, but ordering glasses online isn't as expensive as you think and ACTIVE FOCUS after a few months becomes a natural instinct, so it really isn't a big deal.
Think of the clarity of those (lens free) stars at night again!
You know you want it ;)
Why am I doing this?
You could at this point just join Jake's FB group and follow his instructions.
He clearly knows what he is talking about.
From my perspective as a filmmaker, he could use some training in this dept. And he likes to talk.... a lot. I have found it hard to get to specific info with his videos and website because there is just SO MUCH information.
Until Jake makes his entrance onto the decentralised social media scene (where we can support and reward each other in a very different way to FB, as you know) I will be taking up the mantle for now. All the while happy to pass it back to him if he should ever appear here. He really is a guru, and I don't claim to be this at all. Just someone who has learned a lot over the years and wants now to fix his eyesight, whilst making a film which will help others.
At this point I am suppose to say something along the lines of:
all of this is for educational purposes only
Jake taught me this is the best way to approach this
I am running this course (for free)
Mostly I am doing this in the hope that those of you who chose to join me also chose to do what is most important to me: pick up your camera and film your vision improvement journey.
My intention is twofold:
To create a documentary which proves conclusively we can correct our myopic vision naturally. Without a group, the documentary won't be persuasive at all. If I do this thing alone it is nothing more than Sam's usual crazy vlog... and my results will be written off as a fluke.
To build the profile of @naturalmedicine who are the best group out there!
And I guess there is the fairly obvious third point that I want to see the stars at night without lenses :)
What should you do?
Click here to get to the Natural Medicine Discord Group where you will easily find the Vision Correction group within it.
It is important that you do this as it will be our main hang-out for discussion, encouragement & post-promotion. Seeing other people get great results will motivate you.
A Natural Medicine account has been created now over on Whaleshares where we even have our own pod too!
A pod is a community, or group, of users with similar interests
It will cost you 5wls to get in but trust me, it will be worth it for all the amazing knowledge & people you will find there. Forget eyesight, there is so much more....
THE DOCUMENTARY!
For me personally this is the most important aspect of this project.
So, if you are up for it, please find the courage to turn the camera on yourself and record your journey in your own way. I can create from everyone's footage a very persuasive film which has the potential to change the lives of many.
So, who's with me?
Watch the film I shot today and see how simple this really is.
All ages welcome. Looking forward to hearing from those of you interested!
I mention a few links in the film:
Jake's handy myopic calculator here
Jake's FB group here
Jake's (brand new) android app to help measure your prescription at home here
One of many useful pages on his awesome website here
Download a handy PDF to help you measure your prescription without a ruler. Though you will still need a printer! Just print and attach to something thin and straight... just as long as you can accurately measure at what distance your vision becomes blurry
If you have kids who are myopic but too young for the snellen chart try this 3 meter chart which has animal shapes instead. So cool hey?
Think outside the box and feel out your own personal method for regularly testing your eyes in all situations, multiple times throughout the day (for a week) so you can find an average. There are many factors which affect how clear our vision is in any given moment.
Here is an example of someone thinking outside the box, taken from Jake's FB group
It is so simple!
Jake Steiner on his website, uses a very simple system where we look at the word FOCUS and slowly move our head back from the word on the screen, measuring the distance where it first becomes slightly blurry.
Then enter the number of cms into his handy calculator which will tell us our true myopia value.
I measured mine at 47cms (for the right eye) and using Jake's calculator I can tell you it was spot on. Exactly the same as what the optician said one week earlier (with all her fancy machinery and a £35 price tag). I am -2.25 in my right eye.
So the glasses I buy online we be -2 (for my right eye)
Don't forget to measure your eyes separately.
This is a testimonial from a woman (made in Jan 2019) who is also following the Jake Steiner method, just as we will be doing.
You don't need to watch it to know she is a very happy customer.
Jake gives out his information for free because he is so shocked by the scale of the deception going on within this industry, designed for one purpose only.... maximise profit for one or two companies, at the expense of us the little people.
The Snellen Chart
That's the one we are all used to seeing at our opticians.
In the end it will still be a good idea to download a standard Snellen chart and stick it to a wall in a well lit part of your house, remembering that natural daylight is always better than artificial light.
This is a good idea only because you can mark your progress on the floor with gaffer tape... or whatever.
Point is, as you improve your vision, it is important to see some kind of visual reference of that. Get me? A little bit of tape on the floor can make a world of difference.
See last week's film (part 1 of the series) here:
Remember...
...and belief is the step you must take before the first step!

man that's incredible i saw your video and then i test myself with the subs that i put on it and it tends to 45 to 65 Centimeters, will need a rule for sure to calculate better but i think this is like a workout for the eyes, im excited to get glasses and try to improve it, i dont use it but i need to.

In a way that's exactly what it is. A work-out for the eyes. Growing back muscles!
Can't remember if I have asked you this already but what is your prescription?
-2.5?
