What is Vision Yoga?

Vision yoga is a holistic vision therapy that combines the transformative effects of Yoga, Somatic Movement and Natural Vision Improvement.

Vision is a process which involves our eyes, mind, and body, so we will be exploring how to bring harmony and balance to our whole being.

Vision Yoga uses simple and easy movements and techniques to release tension and promote relaxation.

Who is it for?

Vision Yoga is especially useful people with vision issues, but it is also beneficial for those who want to maintain healthy eyesight.

It’s excellent for developing hand-eye coordination for dance, sports and improving Yoga practice. It is also beneficial for creative people that want to harness their imagination and expand their way of seeing.

Naomi has 20 years teaching experience and will be able to accommodate the class to suit your needs.

Vision Yoga is suitable for all levels of students, including beginners.

What’s the benefit?

As Vision Yoga is a holistic therapy, you’ll notice clarity and improvement in your overall health and wellbeing.

Through this practice, Naomi has improved her Myopia (short sightedness), Astigmatism (blurry vision), dry eyes and avoided getting Presbyopia (old age sight). She’s also gained many other health benefits such as better memory and imagination, and co-ordination.

People have also reported seemingly unrelated benefits such as release in tension around neck and shoulders, improved mental clarity and better sleep. It has even changed the appearance of wrinkles, as they’ve learnt how to relax their face.

How can I lean more?

I became interested in Natural Vision Improvement in 2020, after hearing about it on a yoga podcast.

I had progressive myopia (inability to see far) with astigmatism (distorted vision) and suffered from eye fatigue, infection and extremely dry eyes. Every year, my eyesight was getting worse, and I knew there was also a high chance of getting presbyopia (inability to see close by) as I got older. This prompted me to explore ways of looking after my vision.

I wondered why I never questioned the established orthodoxy that eyes cannot heal. I’ve had personal experience of healing my body naturally and understood the concept of neuroplasticity, so if my body and mind can heal, why can’t my eyes?

I read many books and attended classes and courses on Natural Vision Improvement and Somatic Movement. I learned how deeply eyes and mind are intwined, and the importance of relaxation and mindfulness. My in-depth understanding of yoga became essential in healing.

After several years of experimentation, I managed to improve my eyesight and got rid of my eye problems. I also prevented presbyopia and found my overall mental and physical wellbeing improved. My years of upper body tension started to disappear, and my memory and imagination became better.

I’m currently doing a Teacher Training with Bates Method International and I am excited to share my unique holistic approach.

I’m happy to announce that I’ll be starting a weekly Friday lunchtime Vision Yoga class and Intro to Vision Yoga: Clarity for the Eyes and Mind at the beginning of this year.
