Your Eyes Aren't Broken & You Can Fix Them: Ending Myopia Naturally W/ Jake Steiner #314
The Life Stylist
The Systemic Misunderstanding in Optometry
I used to really rail against optometrists because whenever I would have a conversation with them they would refute my point of view. What people want is the problem solved and moving on right like if you tell me I can pop these contact lenses in and I think about my vision exactly 48 seconds per day when I go whoop and the problem is solved versus crazy boy here who says I need to spend less time on screens and go outside - that's what most people want. The subscription to your eyesight model that optometrists sell whereby you just keep buying new stuff from them and your vision is fine isn't good enough for us. We're not better than McDonald's but we
After living in extreme proximity to two cellular towers for three years, my health was damaged in a number of ways — and I thought my vision was going to be worse forever. But then I discovered Jake Steiner’s work, and for the first time, I saw hope in fixing my eyes.
20 years ago, Jake Steiner began a journey to reverse his -5.00 diopter myopia. It took a great deal of experimenting and trial and error to apply theoretical concepts found in clinical journals and peer-reviewed studies, but through that work, he managed to regain his natural 20/20 vision without any surgery. Now he’s on a mission to end myopia forever.
If you’re someone who suffers from myopia, this conversation is going to be vital for you. And if you have 20/20 vision, there will still be valuable information to protect your eye health and to share with others. You’re going to love this eye-opening conversation.
08:41 — Jake’s origin story
- Jake started wearing glasses in his early teens, and he actually liked the rituals of wearing them.
- His eyesight continued to get worse, and his glasses began to distort his face.
- He started asking questions to optometrists in different countries and reading biology books
- Now he’s returned to 20/20 eyesight with no vision correction
- It is incredibly straightforward to reverse myopia
- He started questioning optometrists telling him it was genetic: the problem seemed to have cropped up somewhat recently, and no one in his family wore glasses
14:07 — The premise of the Bates method and why vision exercises don’t work
- Dr. William Bates had the idea that close-up vision was what caused vision problems
- His solution was to relax the eyes and get out of close-up vision
- It was effective in low myopia, but not when it’s already too far gone, and not when we are addicted to our smartphones
- The invention of glasses was for monks
- How it can help with pseudo-myopia
- Visit scholar.google.com to view only peer-reviewed articles
- Using pinhole glasses to train your vision
- Is all myopia reversible?
- The way our eyes adjust because of wearing glasses or looking at objects closely
- Finding opportunities to use long-range vision
34:03 — Managing your life to support your eyesight
- Dealing with an epidemic of device addiction
- Avoid using your phone as much as possible
- Taking breaks and getting outside often
- Focusing on practicality as much as possible
- People want the quick fix, not to reform their habits
- How optometry is meeting the demands of the people
- Non-native blue light and how blue light blockers stop you from changing your habits
- Eyesight is related to so many things
- A bad night of sleep or stress can hurt your eyesight as well
01:06:50 — Testing your own eyesight
- You will begin to improve your eyesight as soon as you start measuring it yourself
- Jake is developing an app to help you test it
- The reason optometrists protect prescriptions
- See an ophthalmologist, not an optometrist
- The risk of impacting myopia from wearing glasses all the time
01:21:28 — Laser surgeries and what they do to the eye
- The FDA lists risks associated with LASIK surgery
- There can be permanent side effects from using it
- The risk generally doesn’t seem worth it
01:36:30 — What you can start doing right now to improve your eyesight
- The key is measuring your eyesight first
- When you notice an improvement, you’ll realize you have the power to fix this
- Wear two pairs of glasses for two different distances
- Practicing active focus

Are you aware of the dangers of EMF exposure in your home, but have no idea where to start when it comes to finding, and fixing them?
Are you concerned about your exposure to the current 3G, 4G, and 5G wireless networks now activated in most major cities?
Have you attempted to test the levels yourself using EMF meters you found online and ended up confused and frustrated?
EMFs (electromagnetic frequencies) are one of the most toxic elements in our living and work environments. Due to the technical nature of accurately testing for them—and the training required to do so properly—many of us resign ourselves to the fact that we just have to accept them and the consequences they bring in order to use the modern technology we depend on. But you don’t have to.
In this seven-part video documentary series, you will follow world-renowned building biologist Brian Hoyer as he tests an entire home, room by room, to determine the source and level of every known type of EMF.
By the end of this series, you will not only be thoroughly educated on the various types and sources of EMF commonly found in homes but also of the many mitigation tools and techniques available thanks to the cutting-edge technologies.

CACAO BLISS. Back in the day, I used to have to take about 50 ingredients to make an elixir or a smoothie. I had to mix them together, make a big mess, and it took up a bunch of space in the cabinet. But Cacao Bliss has changed the game. Now I have amazing ceremony-grade organic ingredients like raw cacao, turmeric, black pepper, MCT powder, cinnamon, monk fruit, coconut nectar, lacuma, mesquite, and Himilayan salt all in one. So this is the ultimate superfood elixir, but it really tastes like chocolate milk. It's just absolutely fantastic.
