来看看眼部瑜伽
Taking a look at eye yoga
This is one of the many eye yoga exercises Subhan is teaching his students today.
这是肖布汗今天教给学生的众多瑜加练习之一。
Rubbing your hands vigorously together to generate energy and covering your eyes to block the light getting through, he says, helps ease out eye strain.
用力揉搓双手产生能量,遮住眼睛阻挡光线通过,他说,这有助于缓解眼部疲劳。
Eye yoga has existed for centuries.
眼部瑜伽已存在了数百年。
It began as an ancient practice in India and is mostly taught alongside other forms of yoga.
它源于印度的一项古老的练习方式,并多和其它形式的瑜伽一同传授。
Some students suffer from eye problems.
有些学生患眼病。
Others are here to take a much-needed screen break.
其他人来这里是为了让长时间看各种电子屏幕的眼睛休息一下。
So I am short-sighted in one eye and long-sighted in the other.
我一只眼睛近视,另一只眼睛远视。
And so I think my vision isn't very clear.
所以我的视力比较模糊。
And then after the practices, everything seems much more focused.
但做完操之后,一切似乎都更清晰了。
Can eye yoga really help improve vision or go as far as to cure eye problems?
眼部瑜伽真的可以帮助改善视力甚至治好眼病吗?
It's more on anything that's focus issues.
它主要治疗视力清晰度的问题。
According to, you know, regular science, once you get these kind of issues, you can't reverse them.
根据常规科学,一旦出现这类问题,你就无法逆转它们。
But in the Yogic system, they’re saying you can reverse them.
但在瑜伽的体系里,这是可能的。
Though Subhan and some of his students say eye yoga helps improve eyesight, there isn't actually any scientific evidence to prove this.
虽然肖布汗和他的一些学生说眼部瑜伽有助于提高视力,但事实上并没有任何科学依据可以证明这一点。
They can't correct eye problems in terms of refractive error.
它不能矫正眼屈光不正的问题。
So in terms of the need for glasses for distance vision, the need for glasses for reading
所以,如果你需要戴眼镜才能看清远处的事物或近处的读物
there's no way you can anatomically change the shape or the function of your eye, by performing an exercise.
那你是不可能通过做眼保健操而从生理结构上改变你眼睛的形状或功能的。
If eye yoga was an alternative to curing or correcting eye problems, eye doctors would have to look elsewhere for a career.
如果眼部瑜伽是治疗或矫正视力问题的另一种方法,那眼科医生就得另谋生路了。
But while eye yoga doesn't do that, it certainly helps your eyes feel more relaxed.
但虽然眼部瑜伽做不到这点,但它确实能让你的眼睛感到更放松。
