all I had was an idea: to help people get rid of pain connected with the spine.

In January 2000

Today I can say that I have created far more than that: a system for restoring and strengthening health that hundreds of people in various countries already know and actively use!

Could I have imagined that...

• Dozens of my patients would avoid surgery for herniated intervertebral discs;
• I myself and my clients would get rid of «incurable» conditions;
• For three years I would work on rehabilitation with people with disabilities in the UAE,
• People would come to me from practically all over the world (the USA, Germany, Israel, Spain, Greece, Qatar, Egypt, Tunisia, India, Ukraine, Georgia…)
• The number of people I would be able to help would go well past 3,000, and the hours of practice well past 10,000,;
• People would get rid not only of pain, stiffness and discomfort, but would change their lives for the better as a whole!

NO! I could not even have imagined it!

Although, to be honest, I always wanted so badly to help everyone become healthier and a little happier that the forces of LIGHT always helped me in return. I want to say a huge THANK YOU to all the people fate has brought my way: teachers, mentors, tutors, clients, patients and many others. All of you are the "GARDEN of life" and my current project at the "Freud's Legacy / applied psychology" club

The "Freud's Legacy" club and the «Closer to the Body» programme are a first-of-its-kind format of inner and physical transformation with follow-up support and guidance. In early December this project was backed not only by specialists in medicine, wellness and counselling, but also by partners in other countries who have already said «YES»!

What does that mean? Specialists and experts from various areas of counselling, wellness and medicine are ready to help you become a healthier person in every respect.

How will it work and when?

Format:

Days of live contact:

• Skype meetings on topical questions;
• consultations with specialists in counselling, wellness and medicine (including ones based on your own requests);

Materials posted in a closed group:

• progress diaries or workbooks,
• checklists for the topic of each meeting;
• audio and video casts;
• session notes, infographics and more;
• announcements of upcoming events;
• other useful materials.

All of this will help you move step by step, at a pace that suits you, towards psychological and physical health, happiness and longevity.

How is this format useful for you?

You will save the most valuable resource of all — TIME!

• You will be able to use the materials whenever it suits you and in a setting you find comfortable.
• You will easily turn caring for your health into a good habit.
• You will considerably cut your spending on the chemist's, medical services.and counselling;
• You will be able to get answers to your questions from the experts.

And this is only part of the plans!

A great many talks are under way right now on developing and expanding both the "Freud's Legacy" club and my own "Closer to the Body" project

Coming soon (February – March 2020):

• individual health programmes;
• training (with a certificate);
• live meetings in various cities in Russia and abroad;
• retreats, intensives and masterclasses;
• recruiting a team, internships, further cooperation;
• charity campaigns;;
• publishing books, including «The Consumer's Guide to Health Methods»;
• opening the «Closer to the Body» international training and health centre

Take care and stay healthy!

Yours sincerely,

Mikhail Grishchenko – a specialist in restoring and strengthening health. A master of body-oriented practices. An expert in therapeutic exercise.
