Laurel Myers Hurst Season 1 Episode 25

Imagine seeing the world in vibrant detail for the first time. This episode explores how vision therapy can improve not just your eyesight, but also your mental well-being.

Patti Andrich, a vision specialist, reveals the connection between vision and mental health. She explains how poor vision processing can lead to social withdrawal, difficulty focusing, and even feelings of depression. 

Vision therapy can address these issues by improving visual skills like depth perception, eye movement, and processing speed. The episode also explores the impact of vision on trauma and how vision therapy can be used as part of a holistic healing process.

Key Takeaways:

  • Vision is more than just seeing clearly. It also plays a crucial role in how we interact with the world and process information.
