008: February 1920 with Esther Joy van der Werf & Kate Keilman

Feb 1, 2020

In the eighth episode of the Better Eyesight Podcast, Esther Joy Van Der Werf and guest Kate Keilman read through the eighth Better Eyesight magazine that was originally published in February 1920. Exactly one hundred years later, these two natural vision teachers breathe life back into the words of Dr. William H. Bates, and also provide some modern commentary on the topics brought up in each article.
