RESEARCH AREAS

  • Research of new approaches and methods and development of technologies based on photography and visual mindfulness for working with brain neuroplasticity and a subset of mental images and bringing them into clinical research and treatment of neurodevelopmental diseases and neurodivergent disorders to improve patients´ quality of life and disease prognosis
  • New approaches in the treatment of eating disorders based on photography- evoked mental mindfulness, visual mindfulness, work with subset of mental images, brain neuroplasticity and mental imagery
  • Biological treatments of eating disorders
  • Therapeutic, neuroplastic and healing uses of photography
  • Photography as an imaging method in neuroscience
  • Photography as a tool for exploring the relationship between subjective and physical reality
  • Development of an original method of photographic and visual inquiry and photography-evoked self-, other-, relations- mental mindfulness (PESORM)
  • Biological insights into the study of consciousness
  • Development of a saturation biological model of consciousness
  • Development of saturation healing compassionate technologies based on photography
  • PESORM, cultivating visual mindfulness and the art of seeing as a complementary approach for civilization diseases to reduce subjective perception of stress and increase wellbeing (e.g., cardiovascular disease, T2DM, and others), the relation with physiology/pathophysiology, neuroendocrinology and other markers of disease

We conduct independent research as well as research in collaboration with Universities and Research Institutes.

The original methodology (MUM) is developed in such a way that it is feasible for everyone without distinction and is not related to photography skills. MUM uses photography for the objectification of the mental image and brain re-learning. The MUM manual / procedure is based on a step-by-step training for working with the mind set. The basic approach in MUM is PESORM* developed by us.

PESORM* introduces the scientific method of “photographic and visual inquiry”. Photography and visual language are tools in MUM and PESORM* that bring us a new possibility of communicating with our mind on a neurobiological level.

VISION

Establishment of CHHC (Creative Healing Holistic Centre) as part of the University Hospital or other lead clinical and experimental workplace.

Mission of the Creative Healing Holistic Center (CHHC):

  • CHHC should use an evidence-based approach to connect Western science with Eastern wisdom, creativity in the sense of developing the potential of the human being and mind for transformation and self-healing, and humanity in the sense of cultivating compassion, gratitude, humility and kindness in the individual and in society.
  • Part of CHHC’s mission should be to support prevention and learning to activate the self-healing process, which is a highly topical topic in healthcare, where a holistic approach and the search for creative ways to mobilize the patient’s internal resources should be a natural part of Western medicine.
  • CHHC should be committed to science as well as to practice: it should support research on how creative approaches and defined methodologies contribute to the healing of the individual, increase the quality of life and experience and prevent the development of mental and chronic diseases, thus bringing people practice and skills to work alone with you in your everyday life.
  • CHHC should strive to build acceptance, non-judgment and also hope in the individual and in society — our brains have the capacity to change at the structural, functional and chemical levels throughout our lives, we are only at the beginning of the journey of what we do not yet know, each day can each of us working on how to live a happier and more meaningful life.
  • CHHC should contribute to improving the quality of life and bring biological evidence to support human rights and individuals who have developed under the influence of trauma and basal developmental de-saturation of consciousness and support their inclusion in society.
  • CHHC should explore the psychology, sociology, and neuroscience of visual perception and its influence on the creation of subjective reality, engaging in “field building” by fostering a broad, inclusive cultural conversation about the importance of compassion, connection, gratitude, depth, and meaning while bringing a trusted, science-based voice to the public and teach skills that build a resilient, inclusive and compassionate community and society where every person matters and it is accepted here and not judged.
  • CHHC should offer the highest quality programs for diverse populations based on scientific research and established teaching methods.
