What is Envision Yoga?

Envision Yoga is a neuroscience-backed mental fitness method (not traditional yoga). It uses bilateral stimulation to mimic REM sleep, then layers in embodied movement, visualization, and affirmations to help people reduce stress, sharpen focus, and shift mental patterns.

Do I need yoga experience to participate?

No. Envision Yoga is accessible to all levels.

Can I practice Envision Yoga virtually?

Yes. You can experience Envision Yoga from home. You will need two stereo speakers set up on either side of your yoga mat to recreate the bilateral stimulation effect, a laptop computer with Zoom or FaceTime enabled, and a smartphone.

Can I bring Envision Yoga to my workplace or studio?

Yes. Envision Yoga offers both Corporate Wellness Sessions and Studio Partnerships. You can book a demo to experience the practice firsthand and see how it might benefit your space.

What is bilateral stimulation?

Bilateral stimulation is a rhythmic left-right sensory input. In Envision Yoga, auditory bilateral stimulation uses gentle tones that move from left to right via speakers positioned on either side of your mat. This rhythmic alternation helps downshift the nervous system from high-alert into a state of active receptivity.

What can I experience during an Envision Yoga session?

During a session, you may feel a powerful sense of presence and emotional clarity. Many people experience deep physical relaxation, emotional release or lightness, increased self-awareness, insights about limiting beliefs or patterns, and a feeling of inner connection or purpose.

How Envision Yoga Works

You don’t need more willpower - you need freedom from the old beliefs and patterns that keep repeating.

Envision Yoga uses bilateral stimulation (the same mechanism used in EMDR) to create a calm, REM-like state - then yoga, visualization and affirmations help new, empowering beliefs and behaviors take hold.

History and Lineage

Vidya Heisel, Frog Lotus Yoga International

Leah Davis completed a 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training with Vidya Heisel of Frog Lotus Yoga International in 2011 and also participated in a weeklong Envision Yoga Self-Empowerment Training with Vidya in September 2011. Vidya Heisel has certified over a hundred teachers in Envision Yoga - a practice combining NLP with Kundalini Yoga. Inspired in part by that experience, Leah later developed an independently created methodology of the same name drawing on asana, mantra, mindfulness, mind-body connection, and positive thought.

Francine Shapiro, EMDR Therapy

In 2021, Leah Davis began EMDR therapy and credits it with resolving her own PTSD symptoms. This led her to the research of Dr. Shapiro, the psychologist who discovered in 1987 that bilateral stimulation could reduce the charge of troubled thoughts. Her discovery grew into EMDR, a therapy now used by millions worldwide and recognized by the WHO. Inspired by her own healing, Leah later developed an independently created methodology integrating bilateral stimulation, EMDR research, and neuroscience.
