When the eyes and sleep weigh on attention
Concentration difficulties often have several causes that add up. Some are directly linked to eye movements and tongue posture.
The eyes
Some concentration difficulties are linked to problems with fixation, conjugate eye movements (coordination of both eyes) or convergence.
Mental organisation
Others relate to mental organisation, handled by the prefrontal cortex, an area of the brain directly linked to conjugate eye movements.
Sleep
Sleep disorders and sleep apnoea prevent the body from recovering and from being toned and centred, which affects attention during the day.
Free the eyes, position the tongue
Hence the importance of very finely releasing conjugate eye movements and working on tongue posture, which governs night-time breathing, in order to prevent concentration and memory difficulties.
Tongue & breathing →What about ADD / ADHD?
Attention disorders, with or without hyperactivity, fit into this same sequence: they often involve difficulties with fixation and eye coordination, more fragile mental organisation and poorer-quality sleep.
By working on eye movements and tongue posture, the method can be a useful complement to the follow-up of a child or adult. It does not replace diagnosis or medical and multidisciplinary care.
