082: RE-RELEASE - Reversing Astigmatism with Esther Joy van der Werf

Apr 01, 2025 • E82 • 01:05:46

In this episode, Nathan Oxenfeld announces the untimely loss of his friend and colleague Esther Joy van der Werf. Nathan and Esther had been teaming up on the Better Eyesight Podcast from 2019-2025, releasing new episodes on the 1st of every month where they read the original Better Eyesight Magazine articles from 100 years prior, which then spurred rich discussions between teachers and listeners in the monthly Better Eyesight League Meetings. Esther was passionate about educating as many people as possible about natural vision improvement, as well as creating communities around that mission.

For more of Nathan's reflections, you can listen to the special Better Eyesight Podcast episode called "Remembering Esther", or go to www.integraleyesight.com/esther to see some photos from their times together over the years.

As a way to honor and remember Esther, Nathan is re-releasing Episode 25 of The Naked Eye Podcast from 2018 when he interviewed Esther for the very first time. This conversation is a big part of what led to the creation of the Better Eyesight Podcast the following year in 2019.

Please enjoy this re-broadcast, and feel free to go back through the first half of the Better Eyesight Podcast archive to listen to Esther's voice whenever you want at https://bettereyesightpodcast.com
