Vision Beyond Sight

I am Dr. Lynn and welcome to Vision Beyond Sight. Join me each week as I have powerful and inspiring conversations with my guests in the areas of health and wellness, vision care, brain health, education, sports, and psychology. They will share their inspirational stories of healing and life transformation through their treatments and vision expansion. For more than 45 years as a developmental optometrist, I’ve helped thousands of people transform their lives through vision training and visualization. Now, my passion has shifted from treating patients individually with traditional vision problems to empowering people to utilize their inner vision through visualization. My mission is to inspire and empower millions of people through their vision and visualization skills so that they may see and experience their world through the lens of clarity, courage, and confidence. And with my new way to look at your life through a new “lens”, you will be ready to meet yourself and receive visualizations for miracles to come. Your vision does not define you...you define your vision. A Vision Beyond Sight. About Dr. Lynn Hellerstein A pioneer in vision therapy and developmental optometry, for more than 30 years Dr. Lynn has helped thousands of children and adults improve their vision and transform their lives — at home, in the classroom, and most recently on the playing field. Her breakthrough methods unlock barriers to learning and “rewire” around brain injuries, and vision perception or processing deficits. But you don’t have to have a vision problem to benefit: her brain training strategies may be the missing magic if you’re an athlete trying to nail a tricky shot or stay cool in competition. If it’s a skill you can visualize, Dr. Lynn can help train your eyes — and mind’s eye — on success. Award-winning author Dr. Lynn has extensive professional publications to her credit, but witnessing the joy of her patients overcoming a learning barrier or meeting a sports goal put her on a mission: to deliver her methods into a form that could reach a wide audience of parents and educators, to help more kids and more athletes. Her award-winning series, SEE IT. SAY IT. DO IT!®, is the happy result.

    The Link Between Autoimmunity and the “Good Girls”: Rising from Being a Girlhood Caretaker with Sara Hirsh Bordo (Episode #114)

    Dr. Lynn Hellerstein of Vision Beyond Sight speaks with Sara Hirsh Bordo, award-winning filmmaker and author, to talk about how her autoimmune diagnoses are seemingly linked to her personal traumas and upbringing as a girlhood caretaker. Being a “good girl” all her life prevented Sara from putting herself first and seeking help at the detriment of her health, and she only recognized this at age 42 through an emotional autopsy in a life-changing trip. Her bigger discovery later on is finding out that she is far from alone. Her eye-opening survey (that is free to download!) explores the intersection of empowerment (or lack thereof) and autoimmunity in American women. Discover how suppressed energies lead to epigenetic stress, and how empowerment is the missing modality of health. As mentioned in the Law of Samsara, Sara invites you to undergo a rebirth and rise up from being the eternal girlhood caregiver. Rebuild your values as a woman by learning to say no and listening to your body. You don’t need to get sick as permission to prioritize yourself, and being a “good girl” does not necessarily make you a “true girl.” Dr. Lynn Hellerstein, Developmental Optometrist, co-owner of Hellerstein & Brenner Vision Center, P.C., award-winning author and international speaker, holds powerful and inspiring conversations with her guests in the areas of health, wellness, education, sports and psychology.
