Spending\u00a0hours watching TV and working on computers can take a\u00a0troll on eye health. Like I always say, Ayurveda has solutions to all the health problems and eye-care is no exception. According to Ayurveda, The eye is governed by Alochaka Pitta, a subdosha of Pitta which becomes less balanced as we age. That’s why it’s important to care for your eyes throughout life. These doshas can get imbalanced due to a variety of reasons and can be treated by ayurvedic remedies.\u00a0Here are the top Ayurvedic eye remedies:<\/p>\n
PALMING<\/strong><\/p>\n Rub the palms against each other or hold them under hot water (not too hot!). Now position your hands on your face. The base of the pinkie fingers will be right on the bridge of your nose. Keep your eyes open underneath your fingers to see if light passes through it. If you see light, correct the placement of your palms until you get perfect coverage that does not allow any light to your eyes. Now close your eyes and keep the palms as it is. Breathe slowly and concentrate on your breathing.
