Rate this book
Control your stress response through vagus nerve stimulation

• Presents more than 100 effective exercises to naturally stimulate the vagus nerve in order to help manage anxiety, depression, sleep, and digestive disorders

• Explores the function of the vagus nerve and the organs and systems it’s connected to throughout the body

• Explains how these simple exercises work by improving sensory-information processing, which provides a solid foundation for physical resilience and self-healing

In a world where our lives and daily rhythms are becoming increasingly demanding, being able to implement effective techniques to regulate our stress levels is essential to maintaining a healthy mind and body. The most significant component of the parasympathetic nervous system, which regulates our ability to “rest and digest,” the vagus nerve is an information superhighway transmitting information between the brain and the heart, the gut, the immune system, and many organs. By stimulating the vagus nerve, you can work with your parasympathetic nervous system to reduce stress and anxiety, regulate digestion and appetite, moderate heart rate and blood pressure, and balance systems throughout the body.

Backed up by the latest scientific research, this book will guide you through more than 100 effective exercises to naturally and gently stimulate your vagus nerve and in turn help manage anxiety, depression, inflammation, sleep, and digestive disorders. The simple techniques include a variety of balance, hearing, sight, breathing, and touch exercises. By improving the quality of stimulation the vagus nerve receives, these neuroeffective exercises enable the brain-gut and brain-heart axes to function more predictably and effectively, providing a solid foundation for mental health, physical resilience, and self-healing.

With this comprehensive and accessible guide to natural vagus nerve stimulation, anyone can apply these powerful self-help techniques and experience a more balanced and resilient mind and body.

Danke, das ist einfach ein fantastisches Buch! Es ist unglaublich hilfreich. Meine Tochter versuchte sich auf einen Spagat zu setzen und verletzte sich die Nerven. Ihr Buch hat uns also geholfen zu verstehen, was zu tun ist. Wissen Sie, ich finde es wirklich dumm, einen Spagat zu machen, ohne sich aufzuwärmen. Dann benötigen alle Leute https://fuessiotherapie.de/ Physiotherapie Berlin Kontakte, um ihre problematischen Verbindungen und Muskeln zu beheben. Also sagte ich es meiner Tochter, niemals ihre Gesundheit zu riskieren und sich immer aufzuwärmen. So, Physiotherapie wirkt Wunder. Aber erst haben wir Ihr Buch gelesen und dann den Arzt consultieren.

Sehr, sehr umfangreich und detailliert. Bestimmt saugut, aber mir war es viel, viel, viel ZU umfangreich, habe irgendwann komplett die Orientierung verloren und war so beladen, dass ich gar keine Lust mehr hatte, mit dem Üben anzufangen…

It offers great many different exercises to improve your health but to a level that I've found overwhelming, and I actually couldn't choose even a few to start with. I'd love to have a basic Vagus nerve 101 version of it.

This seems like a really good book - a lot of info, exercises and resources. It feels like it would be a big commitment to take it on solo without a coach - commit to exercise routines etc for the full effect. But it's created a greater sense of awareness about this area for me. I think my plan is to integrate what I can, as simply and naturally as possible.
