  • Great podcast

    I am so thankful for Nathon and this podcast. I discovered it almost 3 years ago and I feel so empowered. For the first time in my life I am no longer getting a stronger prescription every year. Although progress has been slow for me, my eyesight is improving and the insights I’ve gained are amazing. I feel like I’m on a new exciting journey bringing me closer to my authentic self. One of my favourite things to do is walk around our farm without my glasses on. I constantly experience clear flash... more

  • Insightful, in all senses of the word!

    Nathan’s podcast continues to enlighten me on concepts of vision and psychology that I’d never considered before. I was fortunate to take one of his courses, and the podcast is only one of his beneficial offerings. I feel he’s a gifted teacher, and his lessons extend into whole life improvement, which make his work essential and valuable. I’m very grateful to have found his books, classes, and podcasts, and it’s on my bucket list to attend a retreat.
