Stay tuned for information about the next retreat.
Immerse yourself in Natural Vision Improvement for several days under the guidance of Nathan Oxenfeld and with a small group of others.
Truly amazing things can happen when multiple days in a row are spent without wearing any corrective lenses like glasses or contacts.
You won’t need to cook, drive, or look at screens, so your full focus can go towards healing your vision holistically.
You can make massive strides and build steady momentum to take the improvements back home with you.
Each day you get opportunities to learn and implement powerful vision improvement practices and principles in order to experience clearer eyesight first-hand.
Your mornings will begin with gentle eye yoga classes, your afternoons will dive into natural vision classes, and your evenings will explore night vision walks and conversations around the fire.
By the end of the final day, you will be seeing yourself and the world in entirely new ways.
Here’s what past retreat participants are saying…
“I was at your retreat in Canada and it was really wonderful. I spent 4 days there and accomplished things I really didn’t think I could, because I have macular degeneration and now I call it macular regeneration.”
-Pat S.

Originally, Certified Bates Method Teacher, Nathan Oxenfeld was going to be hosting a 5 Day Eyesight & Insight Immersion Retreat in Asheville, North Carolina at the end of May… well, due to the COVID-19 shutdown, that has been postponed to 2021… so Nathan has decided to take his in-person event online and host his first ever Virtual Vision Retreat!
