SPIRIT Relationship Between Spirit and Vision



Marianne Williamson: “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us most. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?' Actually, who are you not to be?"

LIVE it

overthinking •  Kindness, compassion to self •  Desire to be more visible

Vision Progression

Inner

times when you can’t take off glasses, but don’t need 20/20

•  Get P.D. (pupil distance) •  www.goggles4u.com

Tip to Save $ and Accelerate Progress



•  For a better #t, also note position of arms relative to lenses



•  Measure current glasses •  Most important: total frame width and relative

position of arm to lenses •  Accurate P.D. measurement •  Email deals all the time •  1.61 High index lenses: $26.95 •  1.57 CR39: $6.94

Online Ordering Tips



•  Take very small increments (too much = eye strain) •  0.25 diopter reduction for close work •  0.5 diopter is signi#cant difference, not

recommended for starting out •  Do not reduce astigmatism on own, get it

measured annually by optometrist

Shifting Prescription



•  Eyes will need to adjust as they do when you get a stronger prescription

•  At #rst, may feel slightly disoriented or headache •  Less taking off of glasses at #rst •  Brain will adapt to see with reduced prescription •  As eyes and brain adapt, can step back again

Shifting Prescription
