This excellent book explores the amazing system that organises vision. The eyes initiate and control most motor behavior. Working with the relationship of the eyes to the rest of the body can be a powerful means to improve physical organization and functioning. Jack Heggie combines the theory and practice of Awareness Through Movement with the vision improvement of Dr. William Bates and has developed 13 ATM vision exercises which reduce eye strain and improve posture flexibility and visual acuity.
