Somebody mentioned EYES , seeing without contacts or glasses, as a possible modual for Paths. I've forgotten where the thread was, so I decided to start my own. ( please bear with me if this does not sound as good as the original, my computer wiped it when I hit the wrong key at the wrong time )
Most , though not all eye problems are caused by stress, stress of watching too much TV, being in front of a computer all day long, or in my case reading too meny books, late into the night, when I should be asleep.
As with all revolutionary ideas there is a man behind this one, who was ridicluled by his peers, even though some of them where able to reproduce his resaults. Dr William H Bates is his name, 1860 - 1931. Much of his work and learnings have been compiled in a book called " Relearning to See " by Thomas R Quackenbush, North Atlantic Books, Berkeley, California. Its a good book, well thought out and written. Giving some history, some eye geometry, some practices and beliefs, and of course a flow through of how your eyes got the way they are and how you can counter this.
So why do i wear glasses, still? I love my computer too much. I did try the practises, I actualy went cold turnkey and reduced my computer time to maybe 30 minutes a day, and did meny ( not all, never finished the book ) of the excercizes and life style changes recommended. It Worked ! Slowly, my vision was improving. Unfortunaly I could not resist my computer games ( Everquest was calling ), within a few short weeks of spending all my free time playing this game, and not getting much sleep, my eye sight not only returned to where it was before I started playing, but actualy got worse.
Here is where Paths may be able to help. Its not a matter of the difficulty of the excersizes. Its a matter of maintaining good eye practise all day long.
Don't watch TV tonight, go for a walk. Stop, do your eyes hurt, relax. Have you stayed up too late, goto bed, rest. Are you focusing on the words in the book so hard and long , maybe you should look away for a few minutes. change your focus, near things, far things. And much more which I'm just not qualified to go into detail.
In time, all things are possible

Thankyou for bringing it up.
Just finished filling up my theater, so I'll put this module as a need to do, soon as I can.
