Each time after waking up, we constantly notice that our eyesight is not better, but worse than usual! As soon as we get out of bed, let's wash ourselves, let's put ourselves in order, as an improvement in vision is observed.
What can it be connected with? This is mainly due to the fact that the eye muscles constantly need exercises to restore vision after a long sleep. The ideal option is morning exercises for the eyes. It has been scientifically proven that the eye muscles do not rest at all during sleep. Surely, many of you have observed short-term eye movement in a sleeping person. But the fact is that the muscles that are able to regulate the curvature of the eyeball do not respond to the orders of consciousness.
And while our consciousness is inactive, the eye muscles do not sleep, they continue to be in constant tension, as they are controlled by the brain centers which are awake during sleep.
This is where the whole difficulty lies in making the eye muscles relax or tighten, depending on the type of vision correction needed. For these cases, special eye exercises (eye gymnastics) have been developed.
Also, there is an opportune time to act on the eye muscles. It is precisely at the moment when our body enters a waking state that it is recommended not to miss this opportunity and to do the exercises to restore the underlying vision, which will not take long, but will fully prepare the eye muscles for work.
How to do morning exercises for the eyes
Exercise 1
To relax the spine and muscles of the body, which were practically motionless and tense during sleep, first stretch well. You've surely seen how cats and other animals do this when they wake up.
After sipping, turn well from side to side, breathing deeply. Deep breathing improves blood circulation within the body.
Exercise 2
Open your mouth wide, then open your eyes wide. So open your mouth and wide eyes at the same time. This eye exercise should be done four times.
Exercise 3
Close your eyes as much as you can seven times. Then blink quickly. Try blinking calmly and easily. A fairly frequent blinking has a beneficial effect on the mucous membrane and hydrates the eyes more. Many point out that it is after frequent blinking that the sharpness of vision increases.
Exercise 4
For better relaxation of the neck muscles, try writing each letter of the alphabet with the tip of your nose in the air. You can write absolutely whatever you want. It is best to do this eye exercise with your eyes closed. Such an exercise for the eyes can be performed anywhere: at work, on public transport, on the street or at home. All you have to do is mentally draw numbers, shapes, letters, various angular figures and drawings. After this action, your eyes will automatically move. This exercise has a positive effect not only on the eyes, but also on the body as a whole.
Exercise 5
Lower and raise your eyebrows up and down until you feel movement in your ears. Such an exercise improves the appearance, tone of the facial muscles, blood supply and, as a result, has a positive effect on vision.
Exercise 6
Palm for four to five minutes. After that, your eyes are completely ready for work.
