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.© 2026 Toginet Radio Hygiene & Healthy Living

    Aug 13 2026
    In this inspiring episode of Vision Beyond Sight, Dr. Lynn Hellerstein sits down with Ray Merenstein—storyteller, husband and dad, fundraising consultant, and Executive Director of NAMI Colorado—to explore how communities can be created to foster connection, trust, and belonging. Ray and Dr. Lynn discuss the power of belonging, like with students through sports, theater, music, and other shared experiences. Citing Ray’s upcoming documentary We Over Me about a lacrosse team in Utah, they tackle the importance of putting phones away in schools to encourage being “noisy” with real-world conversation and accomplishing deeper things together. They explore belonging as a mental health practice, the value of reconnecting with others, practicing gratitude, and being intentional about listening and engaging. The conversation also explores AI and mental health, including how technology can help connect people with resources while still requiring human oversight. Ray shares NAMI resources and simple ways to create more belonging, from giving compliments to truly listening when you ask, “How are you?” Tune in for an inspiring conversation about building stronger communities and helping one another feel seen, valued, and connected.

  • Whispers of Color: Finding Hue Within You and Seeing Colors in a Different Way with Sue Elizabeth Lee (Episode #162)

    Whispers of Color: Finding Hue Within You and Seeing Colors in a Different Way with Sue Elizabeth Lee (Episode #162)
    Jul 30 2026
    In this colorful episode of Vision Beyond Sight, Dr. Lynn Hellerstein welcomes Sue Elizabeth Lee – artist, poet, and cofounder of the Sock It To Em Sock Campaign – to talk about her delightful book Whispers of Color. Sue shares her incredible story of how she started to wake up in the middle of the night and write poems about specific colors. Realizing her descriptions relate to her memories and life moments, she continued writing during the day and even invented color names like “Faded Blue Jeans.” Her work eventually turned into a collection of poems about 52 colors! Later on, her words inspired the late musician to Animal Planet and her good friend Chris Hewitt to compose music for every poem and see “what those colors sound like.” Along with Sue’s narration of every poem, Whispers of Color became a multisensory experience. Her hope is for every reader to find stillness and reflection in experiencing every color, much like when we pause and marvel at a rainbow in the sky. At the age of 77, Sue reminds us to never give up on our dreams. It is with ourselves that we will live with for the rest of our lives so we owe it to us to take courage and find the way to make our dreams work, especially in these times when it is easier to connect with people and utilize technology, even AI. Sue inspires us to see colors – and life – in a different way. What if color weren’t a color? The answer could surprise “hue.” 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.

    Beyond Green: Transforming School Cafeteria Food to Nourish the Next Generation with Chef Greg Christian (Episode #161)
    Jul 16 2026
    In this episode of Vision Beyond Sight, Dr. Lynn Hellerstein welcomes Chef Greg Christian—consultant, author, entrepreneur, and founder of Beyond Green Sustainable Food Partners and the Sustainable Food Institute of America—for a meaningful conversation about teaching school kitchen staff how to scratch cook locally-sourced food that kids want to eat, all within budget! By implementing these changes, systems can and will change within school cafeterias and for the local community. From his early career in fine dining to improving school cafeterias, Greg explains why every child deserves nutritious, delicious food. He discusses the value of empowering kitchen teams, involving students in gardening and menu planning and supporting local farmers. While changing the national food system is a tough journey, Greg leads with a philosophy that focuses on building relationships even with difficult people, and allowing them space to feel seen and heard as they gradually accept the changes and realize the nutritious (and delicious!) benefits he is bringing to the table all along. Tune in to discover how better school meals can improve children's health and strengthen communities—one meal at a time.
