Summary
How healthy is your nervous system? My latest interview is a special one that covers the very foundations of human performance and muscle building: the nervous system. If high performance, longevity, and optimal brain function are important to you, this episode is for YOU.
Dr. Svetlana Masgutova is the creator of the MNRI® - Masgutova Neurosensorimotor Reflex Integration Program. Dr. Masgutova has been leading research since 1989 for the MNRI® Institutes and has studied the influence of primary sensory-motor patterns on different aspects of development and learning. Her work focuses on the concepts of Reflex Integration to facilitate sensory-motor rehabilitation, emotional recovery from traumatic stress, as well as learning and developmental enrichment.
Although Dr. Masgutova's background is in clinical psychology, her early experience working with PTSD in victims of disaster (particularly children) led her to pursue the path of working through subcortical neurological pathways, to find an alternate connection between sensory stimuli and motor response patterns, that has gone on to provide massive benefit to over 300,000 people across the globe.
You'll learn:
- How to identify, and begin to eradicate, your own trauma.
- Tools to govern and CHANGE stress responses.
- Why nervous system health is SO important for athletes and high-performers.
- What the driving factors are for neuroplasticity and neurogenesis.
- How to balance the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system.

| 0:00.0 | Hey, everyone, welcome back to another episode of the muscle intelligence podcast in the middle of muscle building month in the muscle intelligence community. |
| 0:16.0 | And we are bringing everything that it takes to understand how to add muscle to your frame with respect |
| 0:23.6 | to training in the gym. We're going deep this month to ultimately give you every little thing |
| 0:29.4 | you need to understand performance, to understand training. We're bringing you the best guests in |
| 0:34.8 | the world. And today is absolutely no exception. |
| 0:38.0 | Dr. Svetlana Mastgutova, who joins me today, live from Poland, |
| 0:42.8 | where she is currently working on her incredible program called the MNRI, |
| 0:48.2 | which is the Maskutova Neurosensory Motor Reflex Integration Program. |
| 0:52.5 | I know that's a mouthful about explaining what it is. |
| 0:55.0 | Anyone who has experienced any type of trauma in their life |
| 0:59.3 | likely has some type of reflexes that are not integrated. |
| 1:04.6 | Dr. Maskutovah spends her life helping people reintegrate reflexes. |
| 1:10.1 | Why do you care and why does it matter to you? |
| 1:12.3 | Ultimately, if you've ever noticed a disparity left to right in your body, if you've ever |
| 1:17.1 | noticed any type of structural imbalance, maybe something just doesn't feel right, maybe your |
| 1:22.1 | body isn't developing equally. Oftentimes, this can be traced back to the lack of integration of certain reflexes. |
| 1:29.7 | If you tend to be slow in your ability to react, if you tend to be mentally challenged, |
| 1:34.4 | if you tend to be very sympathetically driven, meaning stressed a lot, the root that must change |
| 1:40.5 | is the integration of reflexes. And this is something that I've been learning about for many, |
| 1:44.5 | many years. And it's really, Dr. Mosbitova is the number one person in the world when it comes to |
| 1:49.4 | understanding the integration of reflexes. So I have incredibly honored to have her join me today |
| 1:54.9 | and discuss everything there is to understand about reflex integration. And here's why you care. |
