#324 | WW - Clear Mind, Clear Vision

Vision is more than just what we gain through the miracle of eyesight. Vision comes from a deeper and more intuitive place. Or at least we have access to the expanded and elevated perspective where we can see and know more deeply and with certainty.

On Medicinal Monday this week (#323), we discussed the physiology of eye health and how to eat and live to promote a healthy retina, clear lenses, and avoid conditions like macular degeneration, glaucoma, and cataracts. While the physical determinants of health (food, hydration, movement, sleep, etc.) majorly impact eye health, we love to explore the deeper metaphysical relationships that are still very much connected to the healthy eyes.

The eyes’ physical role in the body is to SEE. To perceive information from the outside world. The structure of the eye picks up on light, which the brain translates to recognizable patterns an images that we can make sense of and respond to appropriately in our lives. As one of the body’s main senses, it’s a primary  way that we take in information.

When eye issues arise, there may also be an energetic component. Issues around not liking what you are seeing in life, fear of really seeing your true self, or the inability to look ahead into the future with joy can also impede our physiologic vision. We can get curious about these opportunities to see ourselves and life through "God's eyes" as we gain peace and perspective. Enhanced eye health and eye sight come along with this deeper connection to spiritual vision.

Some highlights from today's WW episode...

⁃How stress impacts vascular health (increased blood pressure, blood glucose, and plaque build up) which has effects on microvasculature of eye/retina.
⁃The mind's eye and how energetic/emotional blockage can contribute to eye problems and poor vision
- Perception is 100% dependent on the quality of thinking in a moment - we can see ourselves and life with greater curiosity and open-mindedness
⁃How a clear and decluttered mind translates to clear perception and clear vision
⁃The power of the psychological immune system in clearing "thought storms" that may arise in the mind
