Every time we wake up, we constantly notice that our eyesight is not better, but worse than usual! As soon as we get out of bed, we wash ourselves, put ourselves in order, and our eyesight improves.
What can this be related to? This is primarily due to the fact that the eye muscles constantly need exercises to restore vision after a long sleep. Morning eye exercises are an ideal option. It has been scientifically proven that the eye muscles do not rest at all during sleep. Surely many of you have noticed short-term eye movements in a sleeping person. But the fact is that the muscles that can regulate the curvature of the eyeball do not respond to commands of consciousness.
And while our consciousness is at rest, the eye muscles are not sleeping, they are still in constant tension, because they are controlled by the brain centers that are awake during sleep.
Therein lies the whole difficulty of relaxing or tightening the eye muscles, depending on what kind of vision correction is needed. Special eye exercises (eye gymnastics) have been developed for such cases.
Moreover, there is a right time to act on the eye muscles. Just when our body enters the state of wakefulness, it is recommended that you do not miss this opportunity and do the exercises to restore vision below, which will not take you much time, but will fully prepare your eye muscles for work.
How to do morning eye exercises
Exercise 1
To relax your spine and body muscles, which were practically immobile and tense during sleep, first stretch well. You must have seen cats and other animals do this when they wake up.
After swallowing, turn well from one side to the other, taking deep breaths. Deep breathing improves blood circulation in the body.
Exercise 2
Open your mouth wide, then open your eyes wide. Then open your mouth and eyes wide at the same time. You need to do this eye exercise four times.
Exercise 3
Close your eyes as hard as you can seven times. Then blink quickly. Try to blink calmly and easily. Quite often blinking has a beneficial effect on the mucous membranes and moisturizes the eyes more. Many point out that visual acuity increases after frequent blinking.
Exercise 4
To better relax 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. This eye exercise is best done with your eyes closed. Such an eye exercise can be performed anywhere - at work, on public transport, on the street or at home. All you need 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 exercise improves appearance, facial muscle tone, blood supply and as a result has a positive effect on vision.
Exercise 6
Work your palms for four to five minutes. After that, your eyes are completely ready to work.
