🧘‍♀️🌈 Activate Your Vagus Nerve for Anxiety Relief 🌈🧘‍♂️

Embark on a transformative journey with Katie, Head Coach at ReOrigin, and Co-founder Ben, as they unravel the mysteries of the Vagus Nerve—the longest cranial nerve connecting your brain to the rest of your body. Understand why activating this nerve is crucial for reducing anxiety, retraining your brain, and reclaiming your overall health. 🌟

The Vagus Nerve, responsible for regulating various organs and systems, tends to accelerate our body's responses when we're overwhelmed. Discover the top 5 techniques to activate the Vagus Nerve and foster a parasympathetic response, designed to slow you down and bring you back to a healthy baseline.

🔹 Techniques Explored:

1️⃣ Humming or Bees Breath: Vibrating your way to a calmer nervous system.

2️⃣ Physiologic Sigh or Lion's Breath: Deep breaths for instant relaxation.

3️⃣ Gargling: A unique way to stimulate the Vagus Nerve.

4️⃣ Self-Massage: Relieving tension along the neck and jaw.

5️⃣ Tapping: Gentle activation from chest to abdominal contents.

Connecting with your body is key in this process, as Ben emphasizes, allowing you to interact with different areas, from your face to your neck, sternum, arms, and sides of your body. Develop a closer relationship with your body, feel the impact, and experiment with these fun ways to activate the Vagus Nerve. Which technique is your favorite or helps you the most?

  • I go a step further by taking cold showers. Not easy at first but with time it gets easier. 😊

    Another good one that is really effective is pressing in your belly button with your thumbs or pointer fingers about 30 to 60 times for 3 rounds. This is pressing directly on the Vagus Nerve and gives some pretty immediate wave of relaxation throughout the whole body..

    Excellent, helpful, succinct video. Got even more out of it the second time through.

    I've added more vagus nerve exercises in my routine, along with mindfulness from a book called 30 Days to Reduce Anxiety by Harper Daniels. It's so important to have an anxiety management routine.

    I love these ideas! Another thing I like to do is ear massage!
