Description
If you or your client is living with an overwhelmed nervous system, the vagus nerve is likely weak.This can make it challenging to regulate your emotions and triggers.However, according to leading trauma expert Dr. Stephen Porges, the key to supporting the nervous system in moving to a calm and more regulated state is through the vagus nerve.Furthermore, the vagus nerve is the main nerve of the parasympathetic nervous system, responsible for helping the body return to a state of balance (Breit et al., 2018).This is why if one's vagus nerve is weak, it is harder for one to regulate their emotions (Breit et al., 2018; Porges et al., 1994).Whereas a higher vagal tone is associated with emotional stability and resilience (Porges et al., 1994).The vagus nerve is one of the longest branches of nerves in the body, which communicates information from our vital organs back to the brain (Breit et al., 2018).Thankfully, there is a way to increase the tone of the vagus nerve to support you in moving to a place of emotional stability.For this reason, Rewire Trauma Therapy has brought together our top experts in the field of Polyvagal Theory to create this specialized program featuring over 14 different 10-minute vagal toning techniques and 7 theory modules.Thousands of people and therapists who have purchased this program have reported seeing noticeable improvements from their first week of integrating these 10-minute techniques into their daily routine.Therefore, with these techniques and enough time, we believe that you can help yourself and your clients restore feelings of safety and groundedness within the body and nervous system after surviving trauma or chronic stress.
