The weekend is over, very successful and beneficial for all who attended. Edinburgh provided good weather and the new venue we were working in was excellent with some sunning activities,
relaxation, a night vision walk in the park, time for relaxation in the park (and running along the canal for some!). We worked in a bigger room to make correct eye test and work on
prescriptions.
Each of us had an individual session and others could benefit of Aileen's way of teaching, working also on emotional and psychological levels where lay the causes of impaired eyesight or
pathologies.
Many subjects were covered and discussed at great length. All left at the end with their knowledge of Bates, and each other increased.
