“It helps so much to have the support of a group, all working towards the same goal, and Greg’s warmth, humor and insight make the class special. His method is not a series of exercises — it is a gentle path to learning a new way of being.”
“A perfect mix of inspiration and practical techniques. I have proven to myself I can get rid of reading glasses. This faith in my eyes is a real breakthrough.”
“I have only used my glasses for driving since the workshop. I am seeing much more clearly and expect to pass my next drivers license test without glasses.”
What eyesight conditions are appropriate for the workshop?
The most common successes are with nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and presbyopia (reading glasses after middle age). Once you understand the Bates Model that strain causes vision problems you will realize that the same principles of relaxing the involved part of the mind, neck, shoulders, back, and of course the eyes, apply to many conditions. Please contact us if you are wondering about other conditions.
If I already have the Reclaim Your Eyesight Naturally program will I learn new things at the workshop?
Yes! The interactive workshop adds these important dimensions that an audio program cannot convey:
Is this workshop for beginners or more advanced?
Both! The natural vision approach must be absorbed rather than conquered. If you have no previous experience with the Bates Method and natural vision improvement you will have a relaxing, inspiring weekend and get a great running start on improving your own eyesight. If you have already been applying these principles, the workshop is a perfect setting to go deeper into subtleties for better clarity and a more “dynamically relaxed” approach to your life. Many participants typically have had experience and success with other self healing modalities as well. It’s an inspiring group setting.
I am very shy in groups.
You’ll immediately feel a sense of care and respect at the workshop. Greg is skilled at creating a setting of trust and safety. It is important to feel safe while you explore the blurry world out there. Letting go of visual strain can sometimes release emotions including fear, if the strain has held those emotions in check for many years. The workshop is filled with fun activities too, which helps dissolve any discomfort.
Should I leave off my glasses/contacts for the whole weekend?
If you have a high prescription you may want to keep your glasses handy, but live on the edge of wearing them as little as possible. If your glasses are not very strong you’ll do fine without them. Do what feels interesting and comfortable. Do not drive without glasses if they are a condition of your drivers license.
Describe the workshop setting and tone.
The workshops include a magic mix of brief theory, activities to explore and befriend Bates Method techniques, movement activities, guided visualizations, and frequent short breaks. Workshops tend to attract people who are open-minded, some with experience and confidence in naturally healing their own major illnesses. Greg is skilled at keeping things moving, while allowing ample time for questions and discussion. The overall tone of the workshop is relaxed yet very activated. Greg believes that a few skeptical questions can be a good catalyst, but he strongly encourages participants to dive in and put the linear, calculating part of the mind aside for the weekend.
