Your health depends on healthy internal organs and a body free of toxins.

Your organs remove toxins from the body everyday, however your diet injects more toxic chemicals into the body than it can remove. The toxin backlogs and must be stored for removal later. With more toxins entering the body than it can remove each day, toxins continue to accumulate in the body.

The stored toxins eventually harm your cells, and it will lead to aches, pains and diseases.

You can give your body a chance to remove the toxins by fasting.

Happy Chinese New Year — “Gong Xi Fa Cai”

We are leaving the year of the Tiger and entering the year of the Rabbit. It is a special time for the Asian family to get together to celebrate and welcome the new year in hopes of good fortune, prosperity and good health.

My wife has been busy with spring cleaning over the last few weeks, and she started her baking marathon last week. She has churned out so many wonderful cookies for the New Year celebration. The cookies melt in your mouth and it is so hard to stop even after eating a dozen! Here are some of the cookies she made:

Pineapple Tart

Dragon Cookies

Semperit Cookies

Almond Cookies

Durian Tart

Here is a picture of me enjoying the cookies — hmmm, maybe not — saliva, stuffed mouth, crumbs, just not a pretty sight.

It is time to let loose and celebrate for the next fifteen days. Yes, the celebration last for fifteen day! Isn’t it a great way to kick-start the new year?

I hope the coming year brings you and your family prosperity and good health.

Gong Xi Fa Cai.

It has been a sad couple of weeks.

First, a friend’s father passed away last week after being in a coma for the last few months caused by a stroke. The doctors could not find the clot and was not able to help him. Sadly, there wasn’t much hope that he would recover, but that didn’t stop the friend from continuing to try everything she can to clear the clot and wake him from the coma. My condolence goes out to her and her family. One good thing that came out of this tragedy was that she has taken prevention to heart. She changed her eating habits and lifestyle, and she tries to share this knowledge with others to help them become aware of the need for a healthy lifestyle to prevent health problem.

Yesterday, another friend’s husband had a heart attack and was rushed to the hospital. The surgeon estimated the surgery would take six hours, however went over by three hours because they found five clots and had to do five bypasses. It is amazing that a person with five clotted arteries managed to function normally for so long. It is truly lucky her husband knew he was having a heart attack and quickly asked her to rush him to the emergency room. The doctors acted quickly and was able to help him. Hopefully the fast action prevented any long term damage to his body. I wish him a speedy recovery, and hope he and his family will have a happy and healthy life ahead.

The food we eat have a huge impact on our body’s health. Many diseases are self inflicted and can be prevented if each of us learn how to care for our body and take responsibility. I just want to stress how important it is to learn to take care of your body to prevent life threatening disease in your future. Surgery is expensive, dangerous, and painful. You do not want to be the person laying on the operating table. I have met people with different types of illness and the methods used to save their lives are not pretty. The patients really do suffer from great pain while the doctors tries to save their lives. I would not want to experience it, and I would not want you to experience that type of pain and suffering. This is one life experience that you do not want to have.

If you do not know how to take care of your body, please learn. If you do not care about your body right now, please start caring because you can only abuse your body for so long before it eat away at your quality of life and make you suffer for it. You never expect something bad would happen to you, but if you do not learn to care for the body, it inevitably will happen to you — it is just a matter of when.

Change is not easy. It takes a lot of effort and work to take care of the body because there are so many unhealthy food and lifestyle choices around us. It is so easy to get swept into those fast, sweet, salty, and delicious mainstream foods. It is so easy to sit and watch TV all day. With some effort, you can start making the right healthy choices, and it will get easier as you continue. If you have problem motivating yourself, then enlist a friend, find a trainer, find a book or video, or do whatever it takes to find the motivate to change. Invest the time and a little money if necessary to give yourself the best chance of a healthy life.

Right now, my focus is on helping people overcome their nearsightedness. Being myopic, it was natural for me to focus on overcoming nearsightedness. It is a continual process to improve and refine my understanding to make it easier for others to improve.

If you are farsighted whether categorized as presbyopia or hyperopia, you can improve your ability to read or see near. It is a matter of learning the right skills and practicing to master those skills. Just like nearsightedness, once you master the skills and use it daily, it will to help you improve. This struggle is similar to improving nearsightedness, but rather than learning to relax, you may need to increase your eye muscle strength to converge through the fusion exercise. You can read about it in the fusion lesson. You may be able to improve quickly by learning and practicing the fusion lesson. Yes, you have fewer steps to deal with than a nearsighted person.

If you need more assistance, there is a program by Dr. Ray Gottlieb called Read Without Glasses Method that may be able to help. The fusion chart I created is based on the fusion chart from Dr. Ray Gottlieb. He may have some additional insight into improving farsightedness in his program. It may be worthwhile to investigate if the fusion lesson does not bring you the progress you are expecting. They are doing a special promotion right now which allows you to try out the program for thirty days and if it does not work for you then you can return the product and they will not bill you.

It is possible to improve your vision, sometimes you just need a little assistance to understand what you need to do. Hopefully, either the fusion lesson or the Read Without Glasses Method can help you understand the situation and with some practice, improve your eyesight.

Before you begin on your journey to improve your nearsightedness, I do need to set the right expectation so that you understand the great task you are about to take.

Improving your nearsightedness is about learning the skills to use your eyes correctly and using those skills to see and look at everything. It is not a complicated process, but it does require change, effort and persistence. It has to become a part of your life rather than being merely an exercise that you do half an hour a day.

In order to improve quickly, I spent three to four hours doing my work in front of a window where sunlight can shine on my book or computer, and spent every break practicing to look at objects in the distance. I spent my half hour of practice focused on the steps in the lesson and tried my best to notice how strain feels and behave. I was conscious to focus on a small area when I read and look at distance objects. I changed the way I was using my eyes. These changes helped me improve quickly.

After spending a few decades misusing my eyes, I needed to practice using my eyes correctly as much as I can. You must prepare yourself to make whatever changes are necessary to use your eyes correctly throughout the day. By being ready and willing to make these changes, it will allow you adapt to the new skills easier and improve faster.

Please read chapter 13 – New Habits For Using Your Eyes for suggestions on the habits you should develop. Then, you can put these suggestions into action as soon as possible.

An important part of eyesight is being able to recognize and interpret what we are seeing. It is not always easy to understand what you are seeing especially when someone is trying to trick you. Yes, I am talking about optical illusions. Today, we will just have some fun trying to trick our eyes and confuse our mind — let’s start with a few basic ones that you should be familiar with:

Is this a picture of a duck or a rabbit? If you look at the left side of the picture, a duck appears. If you look from the right side, a rabbit appears.

 

Is this a picture of a young woman or old woman? If you look at the left side of the picture, a young woman appears to be looking away from us. If you look at the center of the picture, a side profile of an old woman looking downwards appears.

 

Is the walls of this house facing inward or outward?
If you cover the top part of the picture, the lower part appears to be facing outwards.
If you cover the bottom part, the top part appears to be facing inwards.

 

Are you ready for this last one?

 

 

Wait for it.

 

 

Wait for it.

 

 

Watch out, don’t fall in!

Don’t worry, it is just an optical illusion. This person spent a lot of time and effort painting the street to create this illusion of being at the edge of a cliff. It is a great illusion!
