Train cognitive recovery under load
15-minute protocols that restore usable focus and decision clarity — so teams return to deep work faster.
Not wellness. Not meditation. Not clinical treatment.
Protocolized, measurable nervous-system resets.
Built for high-load teams and decision environments
Why It Matters
Modern work runs on meetings, context switching, and decision pressure.
By midday, many people aren’t unfocused from lack of discipline — they’re in an unrecovered nervous-system state.
When recovery doesn’t happen, focus destabilizes, decisions degrade, and deep work becomes harder to re-enter.
In AI-era work, human performance depends on recovery speed: returning to a usable cognitive state after load.
Body Mind Method™ trains that reset.
Outcomes
In real work conditions, people use the protocol to:
- Recover clarity faster after meetings and context switches
- Reduce midday cognitive fatigue and attention drift
- Make decisions with less noise under sustained load
- Re-enter deep work more reliably across the day
Measured with lightweight pre/post check-ins and a time-to-focus proxy.

About THE METHOD
Body Mind Method™ is a protocol-based system for training state recovery under cognitive load — through structured movement.
It trains a practical skill: returning from overload to a usable working state (clarity, attention stability, decision readiness).
Protocols use short, repeatable movement sequences to:
It trains a practical skill: returning from overload to a usable working state (clarity, attention stability, decision readiness).
Protocols use short, repeatable movement sequences to:
- shift physiological state and reduce cognitive fatigue
- stabilize attention after meetings and context switching
- improve reliability of deep-work re-entry during the day

Team & Advisors
Yana Nakhimova, Ph.D.
Behavioral Scientist, Founder
Creator of Body Mind Method™ — embodied, protocol-based training for cognitive recovery under load.
Yana designs short, measurable interventions that help people return to a usable working state faster (focus stability, decision clarity).
Her work draws on behavioral science, sensory-motor learning, and neuroplasticity. Presented at MIT, Stanford University, and BrainMind.
Currently running Focus Reset pilots for high-load teams and building a measurement-driven protocol library.

- After working with Body Mind Method™, I experienced clearer thinking, more stable energy, and practical tools to manage cognitive fatigue. The effects were distinct from yoga or strength training.Mark ClenowSr. Scientist
- We start our day with greater clarity, energy, and focus. The protocols fit naturally into our leadership community and the workday.Lisa ZuegelLeadership Development Program Manager
