Activating Your Vagus Nerve

  • Summary

  • If you’re in need of less ‘fight or flight’ and more ‘rest and digest’ this episode is for you. After seeing like 1000 posts about the vagus nerve on social media, my bestie suggested I do an episode on it and I’m so excited to share this with you. (btw, if you have a topic suggestion, let me know! DM me at @theanythingglowspodcast). We chat:

    _what it is, what it’s responsible for

    _why it’s associated with feeling calm

    _how it explains the why emotions get stored in the body

    _ways to support it through pranayama, specific asanas (yoga poses), posture and more

    If you’re in need of some dedicated vagus nerve supporting time, book a 30 minute, virtual mindfulness session with me or purchase a custom meditation made just for you.

    Be sure to follow along on social @theanythinglgowspodcast and @sageglowstudio. Take care of your mind, body and soul and I’ll see you next time.
