Yoga
The term yoga comes from a Sanskrit word which means yoke or union. Traditionally, yoga is a method joining the individual self with the Divine, Universal Spirit, or Cosmic Consciousness. Physical and mental exercises are designed to help achieve this goal, also called self-transcendence or enlightenment. On the physical level, yoga postures, called asanas, are designed to tone, strengthen, and align the body. These postures are performed to make the spine supple and healthy and to promote blood flow to all the organs, glands, and tissues, keeping all the bodily systems healthy. On the mental level, yoga uses breathing techniques (pranayama) and meditation (dyana) to quiet, clarify, and discipline the mind. Yoga is a way of living with health and peace of mind as its aims.

therapist’s intent. Skin, the largest sensory organ in our body, is our primary sense for connecting information from our external surroundings to our internal environment.

Integrator of eye movement
The goal of psychotherapy sessions is to ensure unconscious access of a patient to resource conditions with the help of specially organized eye movement. The psychological basis of this procedure lies in the liquidation of emotional reactivity of a personality and its safeguarding from adrenaline splashes. In return, it creates new independent state of reminiscences.
One of the unique methods used in the Vorobiev Clinics, is the latest achievement in the sphere of practical psychology and psychotherapy called "Integrator of eye movement". The psychological basis of this program is the conception of Ernst Rossi and David Krik about condition dependent memory. Condition dependent memory is active on unconscious levels and creates the basis for psychological breaches and is the source for psychological and psychosomatic problems.
Condition dependent memory is the biological basis of many situations. Situations may be complicated by attempts of the brain to overcome unpleasant experiences, which returns and dwells on unpleasant experiences again and again. Alcohol consumption can take place for just such a reason. In return, it creates new problems and new reminiscences. Any event, which is chemically isolated from useful resources, may cause psychological problems.
Deactivation of the goal by means of a new recorded memory will allow us to no longer use old memory chains. The main goal of psychotherapy sessions "Integrator of eye movement" is to ensure unconscious access to resource conditions by means of specially organized eyes movement, following a moving frame. The form and color of this frame is chosen by a person him/herself while focusing on a traumatic event or image.
This program does not require conscious information. Fluent information current is secured in the cerebrum. While focusing on "recollection object", personality activates that neuron chain where this event is stored and chemically fixed. An image of an unpleasant traumatic event from the past or as of yet unexperienced future is projected on a computer screen, providing for automatic (unconscious) dissociation from the problem.
The program "Integrator of eye movement" is earmarked for conducting psychotherapy sessions with patients suffering from not only narcotic and alcoholdependence but also as an alternative methodology for treatment of chronic fatigue, depression, all manner of phobiasstammering, and somatic frustrations.
