PSYCHOLOGICAL SELF-REGULATION BY A MUSICIAN VISUAL PERCEPTION, ATTENTION AND PERIPHERAL VISION THROUGH ADAPTED WARRIOR YOGA EXERCISES

Abstract

The author focuses on one of the aspects of the system of psychophysical self-regulation of a musician, from the point of view of the possibility and expediency of adapting traditional warrior yoga practices in order to improve professional musical activity and education. The priority of the body factor in warrior and musical professions is noted, and essential correlations between warrior and musical and performing arts are traced. Methods of mobilization, activation and improvement of natural mechanisms of visual perception, attention and peripheral vision are considered, including solving the problem of professionally oriented coordination of central and peripheral vision. In classical Eastern philosophical and theoretical treatises, prototypes of the corresponding methodological principles and techniques are highlighted. Based on these models, complexes of exercises adapted for musicians are formed and proposed, indicating a wide range of useful skills and abilities in professional musical activity.
