Ways to improve the mental performance of students with disabilities

the article is devoted to an urgent problem of modern students – the negative impact of high academic workload, digital education and chronic stress on physical and mental health. The risk factors leading to a decrease in mental performance and the occurrence of chronic diseases, including cardiovascular pathology, neurotic disorders and psychosomatic disorders, are considered. Special attention is paid to the importance of physical activity and its role in maintaining cognitive development and psycho-emotional balance of students. The author emphasizes the importance of active recreation, including regular physical exercise, and highlights the link between regular physical activity and increased mental concentration, attention, and overall information perception and processing efficiency. The research data of Russian scientists are presented, confirming the positive impact of various types of sports activity, such as sports, pilates, step aerobics and other forms of physical culture, on the mental and psychological well-being of students. Special importance is attached to a new direction – neurohymnastics, based on the development of interhemispheric integration and sensory-motor balance. Neurohymnastics helps improve brain function, increase stress tolerance, and maintain a high level of mental performance even under high learning loads. In conclusion, it is noted that it is promising to further study the mechanisms of the impact of neurohymnastics on the educational process and the possibility of introducing a set of appropriate exercises into the physical education program for students with disabilities. The study shows that the systematic practice of neurohymnastics helps to stabilize the psycho-emotional background, increase academic achievements and maintain an optimal standard of living for students.
