Yoga to Improve Your Memory and Eyesight

A few natural memory building techniques using yoga that will help you improve your brain capacity to recollect and remember, without the consumption of unwanted drugs.


Yoga for the eyes:

1. Move your eyeballs up and down as much as possible without moving the head.

2. Move your eyeballs right and left without moving the head.

3. Roll your eyeballs clockwise and anti-clockwise (each of this exercises can be done 10-20 times).

4. Close your eyes tight for five seconds, then immediately open them and hold them open for as long. Keep alternating about 20 times. This will improve blood circulation to the eyes making them stronger.



Yoga for the memory-'Bhramari Pranayam':

1. Sit in a comfortable pose.

2. Keep your eyes closed.

3. Breathe in through the nose and exhale very slowly through the nose so that it takes a longer time to exhale. While exhaling, make a nasal humming sound varying its frequency from high to low pitch.

4. Breathe in again and repeat it about seven times.

This pranayam works wonders through the sound waves it creates. It subtly vibrates and massages the brain as well as the delicate and sensitive internal organs present inside the skull, such as the optical nerves, nasal track, throat, etc.
