15 minutes and my mind was clear — it’s like a reset button for focus

A 5-day neuroplasticity-based protocol to restore focus, cut through mental noise, and feel sharp — through your body.


No meditation. No apps. Just 15 minutes a day of guided, science-backed movement that shifts you from scattered to clear — starting on day one.

Through upright, structured sequences, the Focus Protocol™ retrains how your nervous system manages distraction and overload — building:

  • Sustained attention
  • Faster task-switching
  • Cognitive control

Built for creative minds, overwhelmed brains, and fast-paced lives. No experience required — just space to stand, follow the practice, and feel the difference.


⚠️ Note

This protocol is not intended to diagnose or treat clinical conditions. If you’re experiencing significant mental health concerns, please consult a licensed healthcare provider.

Used by founders, creatives, and teams worldwide
Demonstrating protocol
In this session at BrainMind Summit 2023 — a gathering of top neuroscience experts, founders, and investors — Yana guides the audience through a body-based focus reset.

This is the foundation of the Focus Protocol™.
These are the top challenges professionals reported when it comes to sustaining attention and mental clarity.

Based on a survey of Focus Protocol™ participants
Why It Works?
  • Science-backed effectiveness
    Grounded in neuroplasticity, the Focus Protocol™ uses structured movement to engage the cerebellum, vestibular system, and executive functions — retraining your brain for lasting improvements in focus, regulation, and cognitive control.
  • Time-efficient
    In just 15 minutes a day, you can interrupt overwhelm, reset your nervous system, and return to high-performance clarity — whether it’s after lunch, between meetings, or during a creative block.
  • Accessible to every body
    No fitness level, special equipment, or prior experience required — just space to stand, move, and follow the practice.
  • Holistic, measurable benefits
    Releases tension, sharpens attention, regulates emotions, and builds embodied clarity, adaptive energy, and sustainable focus.
What makes it different
  • Rebuild focus through neuroplasticity — not willpower
    Structured, science-backed movement activates the brain’s natural ability to rewire, making clarity easier and more sustainable.
  • Stop distraction at the root
    By engaging sensory and movement systems, the protocol shifts you out of scattered states and back into focus — from the body up.
  • Boost mental agility and control
    Train neural pathways for faster task-switching, emotional regulation, and present-moment awareness — without screens or mental strain.
  • Feel it from the first session
    Built for overloaded minds and fast-paced environments, the reset is immediate — with benefits that compound over time.
Testimonials
  • I felt more balanced and clear. Yana’s Focus Protocol™ uses intentional, off-balance movements that activate the cerebellum and vestibular system, shifting my state in a noticeable way. It’s a neuroscience-informed reset that brought balance, equanimity, and focus back into my day.

  • This protocol is extremely impactful. I used to feel very sleepy after lunch, which made my afternoon work sessions a challenge. It was really a reset after lunch to bring me to a state of mind with more clarity. Instead of sluggish, I would approach my work with curiosity and energy.

  • Joy, intellectual engagement, increased energy, laughter, ambition. It was a valuable experience that kept me re-focused on the otherwise long academic talks and I saw it as a challenge, trying my best to keep up.

    Director, Strategy & Business Operations @ MAPS
  • This program was a poignant reminder of the importance to reconnect my mind to my body for full system effectiveness and 'aliveness' during my working day. Such an important practice - constantly throughout the day.
