Like a lot of us, I try to stay healthy. Consequently, I’ve been using herbal supplements
The main place I get them from, sends out free booklets and DVDs with each order. One of the DVDs in particular caught my attention cause he was talking about our eyes. The herb doctor was talking about his formula called Eyebright. He said that historically, people used to use eye washes all the time to stimulate blood flow to the eye and to prevent eye infections.
So he formulated a mixture of different herbs, including: Eyebright Herb and Flower, Goldenseal Root, Mullein Flower, Fennel Seed, Red Raspberry Leaf and Cayenne Pepper.
Okay…did you see it? That part right at the end where it says Cayenne Pepper? Red Hot Cayenne Peppers! Yikes! But the good doctor explained that the cayenne pepper was to increases blood circulation to the eyes.
With RP, the rods and cones in my eyes don’t replenish themselves as they die off. It made sense to me that since my cells were having a hard time renewing themselves on their own, maybe they needed a little boost.
So I ordered the Eyebright Formula from him. I also ordered a couple of eye cups on eBay. (It’s amazing what you can find on eBay, that you never even thought about looking for before. You decide to look, and “Poof”. There it is. Sometimes it amazes me.)
Anyway, the directions said to use distilled water, and put 3 to 25 drops of the Eyebright in each eye cup. Of course, I started with the minimum, 3 drops in each eye cup. I was not looking forward to this. But conviction and desire will drive you a long ways. I could smell the pepper as I lifted the eye wash up to my eye. Then I put the cup with the “pepper juice” on my eye and tried to open my eye. And I tried to open my eye, and I tried, and tried…
Hmmm, for some unknown reason my eye just did not want to open. Could it be the body’s natural response to protect the eyes from Red Hot FIRE? Yeah, Maybe, Obviously…
After much persuasion, and a good-talkin’ to, I did get my eye to open and YOW, yes I said YOWWWW. As I’m sure you can guess, it is not the most pleasant experience, to put it mildly. In fact, it is something akin to torture. And I’m certainly not recommending the process for anyone else.
When I’m bathing my eyes with the healing properties of the “pepper juice”, although it looks like spasms, my body does a little dance, to help get me through my eye washing process. I just keep telling myself that the pepper juice is waking those cells up, so they can dance, too!
I have to tell you that I don’t do it every night before bed, but I do try to do it as many nights as I’m brave enough. I must admit, it does take some (well okay, a lot of) mental talk to get myself hyped up to put cayenne pepper in my eyes. And sometimes I just don’t want to. Actually, I can’t think of a single night that I really “wanted” to do it.
The reason I do it though, is because I want to do things that are moving me in the right direction. Faith can move mountains. I don’t know how long it will take to get my eyesight back, or how it will happen. I am just putting multiple pathways out there so that the universe can pick which one it wants to use to bring me back my vision. And I’m all about that! Whether it’s dancing with pepper juice, or they figure out some kind of medical cure, or something else ….bring it on!
It’s my job just to believe it’s on the way!
How ‘bout it?

P.S. Maybe I’ll get you some video of my “Pepper Juice Dance”; it’s a little painful, but somewhat comical….you might laugh. I usually do.
Stay tuned.
