Wanting a new relationship after divorce

Artem introduces himself and names Alexander’s forty-day practice — 00:00–00:21. He then highlights what mattered most to him: after divorce, he wanted to meet someone, and says that he met a woman and they started dating — 00:36–00:49.

The recording gives no details of how they met or the couple’s later story. It describes a personal event during participation; that sequence does not establish that the programme caused the relationship.

What he notices in his feelings and habits

Artem describes his second observation as changes in how he feels — 00:50–00:57. He does not describe specific difficulties, their severity or how he worked on them. His general assessment is retained without adding a diagnosis or inventing a recovery story.

Separately, he talks about alcohol: he used to drink, but does not drink during the programme — 01:01–01:12. This observation concerns the period he names. The video does not establish how much he drank before or whether he continued not drinking afterwards.

What Artem keeps private

Artem says he will not disclose some parts of his experience — 01:15–01:18. Those gaps are not filled with guesses. He thanks Alexander, says he recommended the practice to his cousin and considers possibly taking part again — 01:21–01:43. The recording gives no account of his cousin’s results or of a second programme having taken place.

  1. 00:00

    Hello! My name is Artem Bezrukov. I am a former professional hockey player and currently one of the coaches of Indonesia’s national hockey team.

  2. 00:10

    There is hockey even in such [one word is unclear] places. What I wanted to discuss is that I took part in Alexander’s forty-day energy practice.

  3. 00:22

    Someone is shooting wide of the goal. [Rink noise.] I want to share how I felt during that period.

  4. 00:36

    First and most importantly, I met a woman and we started dating. [A phrase about feelings is partly unclear.] I had been through a divorce and wanted to meet someone. And I did.

  5. 00:50

    Secondly, there are psychological aspects in which I see positive changes.

  6. 01:01

    I do not drink any alcohol during this practice. [Rink noise.] I used to drink, and now I do not drink at all. That is another positive point.

  7. 01:15

    There are also some things I will not talk about.

  8. 01:21

    Honestly, I would recommend it to everyone. I recommended it to my cousin, and it really helps. Many thanks to Alexander for that.

  9. 01:35

    I hope that perhaps in the future I will repeat Alexander’s forty-day energy practice. Thank you very much.

How should the statement about alcohol be understood?

Artem describes his behaviour during the programme. The account contains no medical assessment of alcohol use, treatment for dependence or follow-up. His words do not promise that the programme will produce the same change for someone else.
