Everybody’s workout routine generally concentrates in body
fitness revolving around cardiovascular/respiratory endurance, stamina,
strength, flexibility, speed, power, agility, balance, coordination, and reaction
time. Obviously, this is in order to get in perfect shape and to have great
body.
However, there is a vital part of the body – the eyes – that
are casually not given much attention. Could it be, they are taken for granted
or they are assumed to have less impact in body fitness? Regardless, you should
really exercise the eyes in your workout routines.
This simple yoga will relax and strengthen the eyes helping to make the adjustments needed during everyday activities such as reading, driving or working in front of computer screen. The yoga can be performed anywhere and anytime.

Step 1
With your fore-finger, touch the spot between your eyebrows.
Gradually move your finger away, focusing on it as it moves and still
continuing until your arm is fully extended. Hold the position for a few
seconds, then bring the finger back between your eyebrows. Cover your eyes with
your palms. Repeat the step at least twice.
Step 2
Extend your right arm in front of you, with the thumb
pointing upwards. Focusing on the middle of the thumb, move your arm gradually
to the right, following the thumb with your eyes without moving the head. When
you have followed it as far as you can, hold the position for 15 to 30 seconds.
Move your arms slowly to the front again, following your thumb with your eyes.
Cover your eyes with your palms. Repeat with the left arm and palm one more.
Step 3
Hold both arms out in front of you, with the thumbs pointing
up. Gaze at both thumbs and gradually move your arms apart. Continue until you
are about to lose sight of the thumbs. Hold the position for one minute, then
bring your arms slowly back to starting position. Again, cover your eyes with
your palms.
