Useful book read in conjunction with personal research I was conducting to do with the vagus nerve and viral illnesses such as CFS and fibromylagia (since blogged about on www.living-whole). Helped me to structure what I know about this fascinating nerve as well as to gather useful info about how to tone and heal it. This is easy practical advice that I would recommend to anyone, not just those looking to solve a problem (really, we should all be more aware of this important nerve which is so important to overall wellbeing).

Simple and fast read

This is a short book written in simple style that outlines ways to help you heal your vagus nerve. Base on what I know, I
it seems accurate.

Short, concise & filled with valuable information. This book is well worth the price & the time it takes to read it. I read the kindle version during my lunch. The information presented is easy to understand & easy to apply. If the detailed exercise and nutrition advice is followed and applied correctly & consistently it should help readers improve their health, specifically the health of Cranial Nerve #10, The Vagus Nerve.

Great for anyone that doesn't know much about the Vagus nerve!

Especially good for those suffering from PTSD! Extremely easy to understand and not overly technical. I definitely recommend this book. I am a psychotherapist.

I thought it was pretty concise and provided a wealth of tips, tricks and supplements to fire up the vagus nerve. Disagree with the diet recommendations however as meat does nothing for the vagus nerve. Stick to a plant based diet please hence I’ve docked a star.

Very helpful information

I found this book to contain information that can help not only heal the vagus nerve but improve over all health

Very short "book." More like an essay

Well written but one must employ the directives to find out if they are useful. Even then, how does one know the nerve is repaired?

Don't buy

The book is too short and not really informative. Couldn't find a single piece of data that was really new. Would look for other books on this subject. Sorry. Sigh

Good summary

It gives few ways of the triggering vagus nerve in a brief and efficient manner like using breadth, massage and movement

[Alex Miller · Rating 3 out of 5]

Very simple and to the point. Explains what the vagal nerve in a functional way for your day-to-day life right away. Then lists the activities, foods, and supplements that help the nerve/increase the ability to be calm. Also lists the foods to avoid (which are pretty common and only additional support quitting certain things like packaged food, refined sugars or others). There was another book I bought 3x longer that didn't connect them as functionally/action-focused, so I appreciate this book because it did.
