The first idea of the project

The idea emerged to launch a unique project, Bohush Neuro, and its public arm — Bohush Neuro Academy.

It was built on years of work in psychology, psychotherapy, neurophysiology, and the study of extraordinary human capacities. In the 2000s, research at the O. Bogomolets Institute of Physiology of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine examined stress, pain, human responses, the effects of reflexotherapy and acupuncture, and meditation under extreme conditions. In 2017–2018, psychology and stress-resilience programmes were developed for the Special Operations Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Teaching and projects in military and clinical psychology at the Military Institute of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv also became part of the foundation. Practice with Ukrainian service members was systematised separately: preparation for combat readiness, building stress resilience, and recovery and rehabilitation after combat. Experience from martial arts, yoga, and health practices was added as well.

A concept and strategy were formed. Work began on an original system of courses, meditations, and trainings.
