PSYCHOSOMATIC COMPLEMENTARITY AS ONE OF THE WAYS TO INCREASE THE STRESS RESISTANCE OF THE INDIVIDUAL IN WAR CONDITIONS

Abstract

The article highlights the issue of psychosomatic personality complementarity, its characteristics and impact on a person. It turned out that this issue is quite relevant, as evidenced by numerous scientific developments in which researchers analyze and offer a number of recommendations for an effective combination of methods of influencing the mental and physical health of a person. Scientists have determined that psychosomatic complementarity is a combination of mental and somatic in a person. Concepts that most characterize psychosomatic complementarity are such concepts as “stress”, “stress resistance”, “physicality”, etc. Stress is a protective reaction of the human psyche to external stimuli. It was determined that the issue of stress is closely related to the concept of “stress resistance”. Under stress resistance of a person, scientists understand a whole complex of personal traits of a person, thanks to which he is able to resist the negative effects on him of both external and internal factors. Scientists define physicality as a whole system/complex of anthropological components, the content of which is revealed through the mediated mental realities of a person. It was found that psychosomatic complementarity is closely related to body-oriented therapy, which allows to reduce the level of somatic manifestations in a person, improve his emotional state, remove various bodily blocks, etc. Body-oriented therapy is the practice of influencing the human soul through the body. The diagnostic toolkit for the study of the interaction of the mental and the somatic includes a variety of methods and techniques, thanks to which it is possible to correct and improve a person's condition, one of such tools is massage. It has been established that massage has a rather effective effect on the psychosomatic complementarity of the individual. The results of the study confirm that a full course of massage has a positive effect on a person's psychophysiological state, energizes him and improves his life.
