    I practice 3-4 times per week though did manage 72 days straight at one point. Been practising about 18 months in total though have had about 6 months off until just before Christmas.

    Funnily enough, since I made the post, the problem has subsided dramatically this time around. On some days I’m using eye drops after class to ease the discomfort but some days I don’t need any at all.

    Haven’t tried the bandana but will give it a go if the problem returns (I suspect our local studio won’t allow it though…)

    I’d still be interested in the info you were pursuing though in case the problem returns (no hurry though).

    Thanks in advance.

    I’m interested to know more about the acid in the sweat please. Did you manage to write the article mentioned above?

    For me the stinging of the eyes is a possible deal breaker when it comes to continuing with my practice. My eyes feel very hot and irritable for some days after doing Bikram. I need to blink a lot to releive this (to the point that it seems like I have a nervous twitch).

    And if I practice for a while my vision gets very blurry.

    I note the experience of others who say the stinging goes away after a while but that’s not the case for me.

    I do take electrolytes but if there is something else I need to do diet wise to reduce the acidity of the sweat (assuming that’s the problem) I’d happily do it. Just not sure what that is…
