Description

 The invention relates to medicine and can be used to improve the human body, restore its mental performance.

 I. There is a known method of healing the body, improving well-being, consisting in the impact on individual points of the body by pressure of the fingers.

 II. A well-known set of exercises is improving physical culture, including movements traditionally used in the form of physical breaks, for example, in subject lessons at school. These methods have a healing effect on the body due to a simple mechanical effect.

 III. A known method of maintaining the operator’s health by applying acupuncture to corporal points located in the distal extremities, a constant magnetic field of 350-500 Oe and a magnetic induction of 35-45 mT. At the same time, barium ferrite magnets are applied to the acupuncture points by the south pole for a period of 2-6 days. This method requires bed rest and has contraindications for persons sensitive to electromagnetic effects - in particular, with hypertension and cardiovascular diseases.

 IV. A known method of healing the body by performing special exercises of Hatha Yoga with concentration on the organs shown during the performance of a particular posture and the impact on the point. But mastering the techniques of Hatha Yoga requires a long time, and the teaching itself includes the need to master a special philosophy.

 V. There is a known method of healing the body, which consists in a complex effect on the patient’s body due to the inclusion of both a mechanical factor (exercise in physical therapy) and a psychological factor (conducting conversations with the patient, teaching him to influence his own body). The specified method allows you to effectively affect the body due to the accurate diagnosis of the nature of the disease of an organ in which there is insufficient functioning.

 However, in the domestic system of physical exercises of both health-improving and therapeutic nature, there are no effects addressed directly to higher mental functions and functional systems of organization of the activity of the cerebral cortex.

 The essence of the invention lies in the fact that a special kinesiology complex has been developed and introduced, which allows for the correction of the mental performance and psycho-emotional state of schoolchildren and students by restoring broken hepatic hemisphere connections.

 It is shown that the systematic use by children of the proposed kinesiology complex in the system of teaching influences has a positive effect on the function of voluntary attention, and local addressing of special coordinated movements and techniques on the indicators of mental performance and psychoemotional state of schoolchildren and students.

 A non-specific form of motor activity is associated with the fact that the motor zones in the cortex of the cerebral hemispheres are an element of its functioning as a whole.

 The specific effect of motor activity on mental development consists in a targeted effect on specific areas of the cerebral cortex with exercises for specific muscle groups.

 Muscular relaxation is based on the ability to mentally, by means of the reverse representation, limit the muscle apparatus from effector impulses. Negative emotions are associated with muscle tension, and the so-called "transition states" are associated with relaxation, or are caused by it, using the feedback mechanism; autogenic training, a structural element of which is muscle relaxation, helps to reduce the role of the somatic component of emotional states. Through a specific effect on integrative cortical processes, it leads to a restoration of the balance of nervous processes.

 Currently, a large amount of data has been received on the unequal activity of the left and right hemispheres of the human brain. Signs of functional asymmetry of the hemispheres are already found in holistic mental activity. In the process of interaction, a certain functional antagonism is inherent in the hemispheres: the activation of one of them is accompanied by some functional inhibition of the other and vice versa - the suppression of one activates the contralateral hemisphere. However, the whole brain takes part in the implementation of mental function.

 The normal physical and mental development is facilitated by the increase in asymmetry in different spheres of human activity. So, in right-handed people, motor disturbances of movements prevail with left-handed, and psychomotor - with right-sided lesions of the cerebral hemispheres. In particular, depending on the “leading” hemisphere, the leading organs are determined from the paired: arm, leg, eye, ear, which in turn determine the predominance of the leading parts of the body, which bears the name of right-sided, left-sided asymmetry or mixed. Decreased mental performance is associated with blocking one of the cerebral hemispheres.

 The developed kinesiology complex through the activation of biologically active points directedly affects the meridians that provide the energy balance of the body. This special kinesiology complex includes, firstly, breathing exercises and effects on biologically active points, which provides an increase in energy balance (block tone of the cortex). Secondly, cross-parallel movements affecting the restoration of disturbed interhemispheric connections (information reception-processing unit). Thirdly, these are certain poses aimed at restoring the connection between the frontooccipital parts of the brain and relieving emotional stress (a block of control and regulation of activity). In the latter case, these movements and postures also have a cross character, closing the connection between the functions of the right and left fields, already the human body.

 The essence of the invention consists in a complex effect on the human body due to the inclusion of a mechanical factor (physical exercises proper, activating proprioceptive impulse in the cerebral cortex), breathing exercises (providing increased energy tone of the cortex), self-massage elements by acting on BAP (restoring the meridian structure of the body ), as well as an autogenous technique that restores the connection between past negative memories and a positive programmer iem future.

 The method is as follows. When a patient goes to a doctor, they are interviewed, simple and accessible in the field, functional and psychological tests to identify the general somatic, psychological state, the presence of physical and mental fatigue, the specifics of emotional stress and the degree of preservation of interhemispheric interaction. Then the patient is introduced to the complex of exercises and taught the correct implementation.

The proposed kinesiology complex includes three series of effects, each of which takes 1 - 1.5 minutes:
1 series - General tonic effects.

1-a. "K - 27". Touch the tips of the four fingers of one hand to the navel. With the other hand
- massage body points for 10-15 seconds;
- massage K - 27 (points on both sides of the sternum, immediately below the collarbone);
- points under the lower and upper lip (central and managing meridians). At the same time touching the thumb and forefinger in the middle of the nasolabial fold and the middle under the lower lip;
- massage the coccyx at the same time with the index and middle fingers;
- make a massage in the thymus gland in the form of light tapping 10 to 20 times in circular motions from left to right. Then repeat everything, changing hands.

 1-b "Breath." Close one nostril with the thumb of the same hand, take a deep breath, exhale through the other nostril (inhale the same nostril 3 times in a row, exhale the other). Repeat with the change of nostrils.

 1-in "Lightning". Run your hand along the central meridian: from the pubic bone to the lower lip of the mouth, then in the opposite direction. Run your hand along the main meridian from the coccyx to the upper lip and in the opposite direction. Moves up and down several times (at least 3 times). Always end up.

 1-d "Ears". Gently spread and stretch with the same hand the outer edge of each ear in the upward direction - outward from the upper part to the earlobe - 5 times. Massage the area from the mastoid process behind the ear in the downward direction to the clavicle - 5 times.

 1-d "Achilles". It is easy to pinch both Achilles tendons with the same hands, then the hamstrings should be gently stroked horizontally several times, dropping to the sides outwards.

2- series. Exercises aimed at restoring the functional asymmetry of the brain
2-a "Elbow". Put the right hand on the left supraspinatus muscle, while simultaneously making 10-12 small circles bent at the elbow joint with the left hand and shoulder forward, then the same amount back. Change the position of the hands and repeat the exercise. The movement resembles a train
2-b "Cross Marching". Make 6 pairs of cross movements, “marching” in place and touching the right thigh with the left hand and vice versa. Repeat “marching” again, performing one-sided hips-arms rises up. Then repeat the crosshairs again.

 2-in "3nak infinity." Draw an infinity sign in the air in front of you with the index finger of an outstretched hand (horizontal figure eight with the center in front of the eyes), always starting to move up. Legs shoulder-width apart, moving with the whole body, bending the knees, draw a figure of the maximum possible size and at the same time, tracing through the eyes without turning the head (3-4 times). Then the same thing is repeated with the other hand. Repeat the same movement with two hands: arms extended forward, index fingers connected, palms open.

 3 - series. Exercises aimed at restoring the disturbed safety of interhemispheric interaction and relieving emotional stress.

 3-a "Fronto-occipital". One palm is placed on the back of the head, the other on the forehead. You can close your eyes and think about any negative situation. Deep breath - exhale. Mentally imagine the situation once again, but only in a positive aspect, to think over and realize how it would be possible to solve this problem, to think about something good, pleasant. After the appearance of a kind of "pulsation" between the occipital and frontal part, self-correction ends with a deep breath - exhale. The exercise is performed for at least 30 seconds.

 3-b "Cook's Pose." Sitting on a chair, put the ankle of the right leg, bent at the knee, on the knee of the other leg. Put your left hand on the ankle of your right - grasp the metatarsus and thumb of the foot, you can close your eyes. In this position for at least 30 seconds, breathing is free. Then put both feet on the floor, feet in parallel, slightly push them apart. The elbows lie freely on the knees, palms slightly touching each other. The pose lasts at least 10-15 seconds.

 3-in "Ray of Light." Direct a bright ray of light from a flashlight or desk lamp in the middle of the forehead, the duration of this exercise is from 30 to 60 seconds. During the exercise, look at a black sheet of paper.

Examples of the method
Example 1. A 9-year-old patient M. complained of recurring headaches and eye pain, rapid mental fatigue, difficulty in memorizing educational material, impaired reading and writing skills (missing whole phrases), and reluctance to attend school. During the conversation, visual observation, analysis of blood and urine, blood pressure measurements, orthostatic tests and simple psychological tests, pathological changes in the physical and psychological status of the child were not detected. Persistent unilateral synkinesia, fixed against the background of right-sided visual asymmetry, indicated a violation of the preservation of interhemispheric connections and the presence of the dyslexia phenomenon - a violation of the learning function. Given the patient’s complaints about the difficulties of assimilating information of a predominantly verbal nature, it was decided that the shaped organ of the brain is the concerned organ. The absence of pronounced organic changes in the body allowed to begin the healing of the body by the proposed method.

 A conversation was held with the patient about the possibility of self-correction of their psychophysical state through a special kinesiology complex and taught the correct execution of movements and techniques. After that, the patient began to carry out the method, practicing three times a week in a group under control and daily on his own for a month. The urgent effect of a special kinesiological complex manifested itself after the first lesson, which resulted in a significant improvement in indicators of mental performance and psychoemotional state. The cumulative effect of the proposed method occurred three weeks later and resulted in an improvement in the ability to generalize and remove the functional block in interhemispheric interaction (lack of synkinesia). Repeated psychological testing after a month revealed that the indicators of mental performance and psychoemotional state as a whole remained at an elevated level. There was a desire to learn, the level of situational and personal anxiety decreased. In connection with the improvement of general well-being, increase of working capacity, the patient decided to continue the classes on his own. Re-examination a year later revealed a high psychological status, adequate self-esteem, the ability to freely operate educational material both verbal and non-verbal in nature, as well as the absence of disturbances in interhemispheric interaction.

 Example 2. Patient K., 11 years old, student of grade 3 (group with a delayed mental development). History: perinatal encephalopathy, speech disorders, lung motor dysfunctions. The examination revealed a fairly satisfactory physical and psychological status of the patient. Good physique, cheerfulness, openness, credulity, he manages to study (for his group), the relations in the family are friendly, calm. Despite studying in a special class, pathological abnormalities in the development of intelligence were not found, but the girl has minimal brain dysfunctions, which are actualized only in critical periods of ontogenesis. Persistent violations of interhemispheric interaction of a cross nature were recorded, which indicates an alternating double overload of the activity of the left and right hemispheres of the brain. The patient's complaints were associated mainly with a subjective feeling of internal discomfort and a sense of anxiety, the cause of which is unknowable. After an objective examination, which showed the absence of any pronounced pathological changes on the part of mental performance and psychoemotional state, the health complex was started by the proposed method. A conversation was held with the patient, during which she was introduced to the rules for performing exercises of a special kinesiology complex. The patient was engaged three times a week in the group, the rest of the time - on their own. The feeling of internal discomfort ceased to bother a week after the start of classes. A month later, re-examination revealed a significant improvement in the speed of information retrieval, the ability to establish analogies (conclusions), as well as the transition of cross synkinesias from persistent to random in nature, which indicates a significant improvement in the preservation of interhemispheric interaction. In connection with the improvement of general well-being, increase of working capacity, the patient decided to continue her studies on her own. At the end of the school year, the girl was transferred from a special group to a regular class.

 The method does not require any special devices, it is simple to perform, it has no contraindications and complications, it can be used in school and university education, fitness and sports activities, in medical institutions, as well as at home.

 Indications for use. When performing standard educational actions, they can be interrupted by a special kinesiological complex, whereas when solving tasks of a creative nature this is not practical. In the case when students have a high-intensity mental load, requiring the disclosure of intellectual potential and elements of creativity, a special kinesiology complex is recommended to be used before such work.

 To increase the accuracy of complex mental actions that require the general activation of the nervous system, cross-parallel movements by both limbs and specific poses are recommended, the implementation of which optimizes the activity of the cerebral cortex and the autonomic nervous system in a certain way.

 In order to obtain the urgent effect of a special kinesiology complex, it is advisable to use it mainly in the presence of random synkinesias, indicating a temporary violation of the adaptive mechanisms of mental activity. The cumulative effect is effective not only in case of random, but also with persistent bilateral synkinesia, indirectly reflecting interhemispheric interaction disorders.
