03. Reduce Right Peripheral Vision

This technique helps to integrate your peripheral vision with your head, neck and body postural control, while supporting nervous system regulation. Due to the asymmetrical nature of the human body you will focus on reducing the amount of right peripheral vision you are experiencing to balance out your postural system.

Wearing a regular brimmed hat gives you symmetrical peripheral vision from both sides. This technique you are focusing on increasing the left by reducing what comes in from the right side.

Symmetrical Peripheral Vision

Reduced Right Peripheral Vision

Instructions:

  • Option 1:
    • Place a hat or visor on your head and tilt the brim to the right so your right peripheral vision is blocked and your left peripheral vision is more open. *Shown in picture above
  • Option 2:
    • You may dedicate a hat to this exercise and cut the left side of the brim off, leaving only the right side.
  • Keep this hat on in a tilted fashion for ~3-9 minutes up to 30 minutes at a time. It is best to do when upright and moving around.

Use this ~1-3x/day for the next 7 days and then as often as desired. * Unless otherwise directed.

  • Optionally, use your testing technique to determine your optimal frequency and duration to perform.
