‘Visualisation saved my life – now I want to make it mainstream’

A wellbeing start-up hopes to help millions with visualisation techniques that are credited with saving its co-founder’s life.

Remap describes visualisation as “weightlifting for the brain” that can improve how people “think, feel and perform”.

Visualisation is rooted in neuroscience, practised by athletes and successful businesspeople and can either complement meditation or be a more active alternative for those who struggle to meditate. Meditation is now a multi-billion pound industry – and the team from Remap believe visualisation could be next.

It was started by two friends who met at the University of Bristol and wanted to “pioneer a mental fitness revolution”.
