Do you suffer from stress and anxiety? Do you get overwhelmed with worry, overthinking things that are out of your control?
In this video, I’ll show you how to use ancient yoga techniques to stimulate your parasympathetic nervous system response to help you calm down, relax, and find greater peace and balance in your life.
The key is to stimulate your vagus nerve - the nerve that runs down either side of your neck. It plays a key role in stimulating your body’s parasympathetic nervous system (rest and digest mode) which is involved in a host of important bodily functions, including stabilizing your mood, digestion and heart rate.
When your vagus nerve is operating optimally it’s referred to as high vagal tone. This doesn’t mean you’ll never feel anxious or upset, but it does mean that you’ll be able to respond rather than react in those moments. And you’ll be much more adept at self-soothing and calming yourself down when a situation arises.

ANATOMY
What is the vagus nerve? The name vagus comes from Latin, meaning ‘to wander’, like a vagabond. This 10th cranial nerve wanders throughout your thoracic cavity. It innervates some of the most important muscles and is responsible for some vital functions such as: breathing, speaking, swallowing, blood pressure, heart rate, orgasm, taste, circulation, digestion, gut health, and more.
The nerve itself sits within a fascial tube, called the carotid sheath. The carotid sheath is an important landmark in head and neck anatomy and contains several vital neurovascular structures, including the carotid artery, jugular vein, vagus nerve, and sympathetic plexus.
Once you understand what the vagus nerve is and why it’s important, this video will offer you some simple ways to stimulate this nerve to self-soothe and calm yourself down when you need to.
COMMON SIGNS OF LOW VAGAL TONE
1) Feeling anxious and stressed
2) Feeling wired but tired
3) Feeling overwhelmed with worry
3 TRICKS WE'LL LEARN FOR HIGH VAGAL TONE
1) Bhramari (humming)
2) Triangle Breathing with Chin Lock
3) Ear Massage

I come from a family that has neglected serious mental health issues like this for 3 generations (that I have met). It is interesting to see how each mother in my family has dealt with anxiety. Each generation has improved it, but not fully addressed the anxiety response itself. My grandma has a body full of disease mostly due to chronic stress, my mother following in her footsteps at age 60. Im 24 and I refuse to develop these health issues, and I am determined to address this anxiety and save my body from a lifetime of chronic stress. It’s possible people!!

Its a continuous struggle daily - I try different techniques and coming back to my breath - usually helps me the most. Ideally, the more and more we practice these techniques, our brain, as it is neuroplastic, should adapt and get the message that we are safe and it should lower the amount of times it triggers these alarms! Stay strong everyone!

@angelalinneman 4 месяца назад

This is a great reminder that the body is not the medium for anxiety’s messages, it is a partner in generating and sustaining anxiety. Those of us with anxiety disorders can’t always “think away” anxiety because our bodies are doing their own, separate thing while it’s happening. And, as he mentions, it’s not about never feeling anxious (or angry, another expression of anxiety), which everyone does, it’s about recovering quickly to a calm state when you do.

Wow. Thank you so much for this, Lucas. I've been researching ways to help manage my complex-PTSD for over 4 years now. It's a living hell - nightmares, panic attacks, anxiety, depression - the whole lot. I have tried EMDR, EFT, 7 different medications, meditation apps, reiki/massage, CBT, talking therapy... and yet I have never seen or found mention of the yogic techniques you present. I've literally just gone through the exercises as you talked me through them and, for the first time in 5 years, I've managed to get my heart rate back down and I genuinely feel calm. My blood pressure is consistently through the roof from the panic attacks and stress response...I haven't seen it go down to a normal level the whole time I've had c-PTSD. It's insane what just happened there. I can't describe how great that feels. It feels like a miracle. I feel better in my body right now, and it gives me hope that I'll still be able to get better long term. Thank you so much.

Also eat grass -fed beef liver 1x week. All that helps too 😌 & cool or cold showers as tparker mentions above. Took one yesterday as when sleep deprived I run hot. Instant relief.

@andyharperarbo138 Год назад

When I was a child I used to modulate my humming with not just frequency, but tempo to clam myself and to sleep. As a baby I almost died and sadly I spent my first 3 months in a hospital. My mother said long ago, that I started humming in the hospital, that humming was always a part of my bedtime routine. Humming has always helped calm myself regardless if I was in physical, mental, or emotional destress. Though I knew well enough when I was young to hum even when I was in a great mood too. This is all true to this day 53 years later. Though I must add that I don't need to hum as much as I needed in my youth, as I am better able to dance through my emotions more gracefully. These days I have to make a point to hum, and that when I do put effort into it, that I defiantly feel I am resonating higher. As my life transforms, so does the reason I hum.

Just curious, I’ve always been “haunted” by the car accident my mom had just before I was born.

BzMama , There are many things in this life that a lot of us experience that we cannot explain . I know I have experienced things that I wonder about and why the purpose of it and spent too many years overthinking it and suffering from the memories. I am now in my mid 70s and I realize that if I had had some counseling I would not have had to relive the trauma or at least for so long but that I would’ve found a healing and let the past be in the past and thank God for the good times in my life and for the people around me that love me . I pray that you can move on and if you feel you need to speak to someone to get a better understanding and then move on then I pray that you’ll find someone that can help you to let go and move on in your life . ❤

Hello Lucas! I'm very pleased that I randomly fell on your video. I'm an ENT doctor and I found all these techniques very interesting. Especially about the Bramari, I'll suggest it to my patients, who have chronic rhinosinusitis. This chronic inflammation provokes the concentration of nitric acid inside the cavities. In addition, there's a poor ventilation of the cavities, and so these conditions create a vicious circle. Thanks again for the tips! Stay safe and healthy!

@amurphful Год назад

Lucas and Dr. Alice, to your knowledge, is the uvula test or Nostral cycle test based on science?

@kazart4772 Год назад

To add a possibility to the CAUSES of rhinosinusitis, please look into Mast Cell disorders, Lectins, Histamine and Salicilate Intolerances. After 6 years of plugged sinuses, I used the Blood Type Diet app (Eat right for Your Type) by Peter D'Adamo and TOTALLY CLEARED MY SINUSES! Why? Coconut, Tapioca, Cassava and other foods are avoid Lectins for My blood type! Being dairy and gluten free, I had switched to consuming more of them. They are hidden in many foods also. Mast Cell people say if antihistamines are needed more than 3x in 1 YEAR, then look into a Mast Cell Disorder of some level. I DO agree that if one DOES get stuffed up as I do when I eat these food items, these yoga techniques DO WORK .

I know my daughter suffered with stress and autoimmune disease and hooked her up to a computer and did 3 cycles of yoga breath and after three cycles of breathing into the count of four and exhaling to the count of six the whole screen turned green because all the systems in our bodies relax if we do yoga breath..

I actually had a vagus nerve attack from my stomach to my neck and jaw. I thought it was a heart attack it hurt so bad. After an ER trip I was told to go to my heart doctor I do have heart issues. My heart Dr had previously told me I had a blocked artery, they went in and checked. Low and behold the artery that feeds the left side of my body, the ones that come out the top of the heart, well it grew on the left side wrapped around behind and then goes up. A miracle!! He told me to go to my stomach Dr who found a precancerous polyp, hpilori, and some kind of metaplasia. He removed the polyp and three years later I was due for my next scope. Everything was gone!! Another miracle! I do have spinal problems and one is facet syndrome. Misplaced pain. I can itch my toe and it hurts in my shoulder. I don’t know if that’s what caused the initial vagus reaction but I thank God it happened. A sequence of events that saved my life. I still have purpose thank you Jesus.

This is such a great video. To be able to fully express meaning of words and how it all connects without boring your audience is a great quality. Your personality, facial gestures and explaining with your hands and graphics on the screen is what's keeping my attention. I am a yoga instructor and am very informed on anxiety. I recently have learned about stimulating the vagus nerve with the vibration.. like singing or humming, but I never actually connected the fact that the long OHMs during meditation are also doing the same.. people can hear what's good for you and what you should do but it's never usually motivating until someone fully understands the reasons WHY behind it.
