INT METHOD
“Mental Fitness is a state of well-being. It empowers us to manage life’s challenges with focus, clarity, and resilience.”
—Verena Vomastic, PhD, Expert in Energy Medicine for Whole Health and Empowered Living
The Integrative Neuro Training (INT) Method™ creates a holistic, multi-sensory experience aimed at promoting Mental Fitness.
It has two primary components—WARP (Warrior Athlete Resilience Protocol™), built by neuro-functional specialist Caydrick Bloomquist, and EMPRINTS™ (Energy-Medicine Protocols and Resources for Integrative Neuro-Training Solutions), designed by energy-medicine expert Verena Vomastic, PhD.
WARP™ integrates the concepts of strength-and-conditioning training with focus and mindfulness aspects. Dynamic protocols are tailored to individual needs and abilities to address a wide range of health concerns, wellness objectives, and performance goals.
At the core of WARP™ is a rotational spinning device developed by Sheila Thelen of Vestibular Training Services.
Rotational spinning has a long history as a meditative, spiritual practice that is still being maintained today by the Whirling Dervishes in Turkey and some other cultural groups around the world.
From a physics perspective, rotational spinning creates coherence—a fundamental requirement for healing, whole health, and longevity.
EMPRINTS™ uses a modular, dynamic approach to building a foundation for Mental Fitness at the energetic level.
In an introductory series of experiential workshops, participants start their journey by implementing basic concepts and techniques for organizing and tuning their body’s energies. Then they are introduced to the Vitality Booster Daily Energy Routine that stimulates all the different energy systems and helps to improve overall energy flow, balance, vitality, and resilience. A third workshop offers a practical toolkit for everyday stress management.
Restorative and relaxing group practices help to integrate the workshop materials and put them into action through movement and reflection. Private consultations allow for more tailored experiences and customized energy-medicine protocols. These may include unique devices, such as the PhotonWave Rainbow Light Stimulator which communicates directly with the brain by sending pulsed, colored light to the optic nerve.
In conjunction with the INT Method™, the BTrackS Balance Tracking System is used to objectively and quantitatively assess Mental-Fitness levels and track progress. Test results provide insights into clients’ fall risk and their nervous system’s ability to maintain balance while visual inputs, proprioception, and vestibular functions are constrained or challenged.
To date, the INT Method™ has exceeded expectations regarding quality-of-life improvements and personal-performance enhancements across a diverse client population.
