Krasnoyarsk Kinesiocenter told how to relieve stress in children and consolidate knowledge through play and movement

Specialists from the Krasnoyarsk kinesiology center “Code of Life” told how schoolchildren, after a busy school year, can relieve muscle tension, stiffness, fatigue and “put away” chaotic, unstructured knowledge.

For this purpose, classes in the summer “reboot” format are suitable, combining physical rehabilitation and cognitive training in a playful way.

“The school year has squeezed everyone out – children, parents, teachers. But the stress did not disappear on its own. It remained in the muscles, in the neck, in the shoulders, in the tense position at the desk. And there’s a mess in my head: I have knowledge, but it hasn’t settled down, it hasn’t taken hold,” the authors of the program note.

The technique includes two successive steps.

Step 1 – releasing physical tension. For this purpose, magnetic exo-massage and the HUBER 360 MD platform are used. Exo-massage relieves muscle tension, improves blood flow and restores balance. HUBER 360, in turn, activates the deep muscles, teaches the body stability and helps the nervous system go into relaxation mode.

“Result: the body no longer “screams” from fatigue. It’s ready to relax – with benefit,” emphasize the program developers.

Step 2 – consolidation of knowledge through the game. At the heart of this block is a Rubik's cube, presented not as a puzzle, but as a fabulous adventure.

“The child is a hero who deciphers codes, saves the kingdom of logic, restores order in the kingdom of memory,” is how the authors describe the format.

During the game without stress, they train:

• logical thinking,
• spatial memory,
• mathematical algorithms,
• perseverance.

Speaking about the effectiveness of this approach, the authors of the program refer to a study published in the journal Frontiers in Psychology (2023), according to which the combination of a physical reset and cognitive game increases the absorption of information by 40%.

“Because the body and the brain are one system. When the muscles are relaxed, the brain learns easier. When studying is like a fairy tale, knowledge does not go into the “basket”, but is consolidated in neural networks,” explain the ideologists of the method.

The program is recommended for those who:

• tired of school, but does not want to lose knowledge;
• physically squeezed, but does not realize it;
• prefers game forms of learning to rote learning;
• wants to spend the summer not in exhaustion, but in development.

“This is not a circle. This is a way out of stress – with music, fairy tales and technology, the organizers summarize. — Where the child does not “recover,” but comes to life. Where knowledge does not drag you down, but lifts you up. Where summer begins not with a “rest from everything,” but with a new start.”
