Episode 051: September 1923 with Nathan Oxenfeld, Esther Joy van der Werf, and Gloria Ginn

In the fifty-first episode of the Better Eyesight Podcast, Nathan Oxenfeld, Esther Joy van der Werf, and Gloria Ginn read through the fifty-first Better Eyesight magazine that was originally published in September 1923 by Dr. William H. Bates, the pioneer of natural vision improvement.

Exactly 100 years later, these three natural vision educators breathe life back into the words of Dr. Bates, and also provide some modern commentary on the topics brought up in each article.
