Why everyone is talking about the vagus nerve – and how it’s affecting your health The idea that inflammation can be regulated by the nervous system is leading to an explosion in what is being dubbed ‘bioelectric medicine’. But plenty of murky claims are being made by unverified ‘ex...

Vagus Nerve The vagus nerve is the longest cranial nerve, often called the "wanderer" because it travels from your brainstem down through neck and into chest and abdomen, reaching many organs along the way.

The #Vagus #Nerve is the longest cranial nerve, acting as a "superhighway" between your brain and internal organs to control involuntary functions like heart rate and digestion.

It is considered essential for helping your body relax and recover from stress.

Sleep deprivation harms the gut via the vagus nerve, early study reveals New research reveals that sleep deprivation sends aberrant signals through the vagus nerve, triggering a serotonin surge that can kill gut stem cells.

I think I want to get myself a vagus nerve stimulating device. Does anyone know much about them? Any recommendations? What's a good price?

Since both Porges and I are psychologists by education—neither well trained nor very much experienced in #vagus physiology or physiological research—I aimed for a document jointly authored by genuine top experts in vagal physiology and evolution.

Make Energy Your Identity—Not Another Habit Stop “trying” to feel better—start being better. Today, host Stacey Chillemi sits down with guest Nate “Anaez” Zeleznick (Ascended Living) to decode how breath, energy, and presence become your default setting—without adding overwhelm. Get a 60-second method recap, a 2-minute pre-meeting protocol, a 5-minute power sequence, what to remove from your day, and the metrics that prove it’s working. Plus: a gentle 14-day sleep progression, leadership language for high-stakes moments, and a 7-day skeptic test you can run this week.  You’ll learn: identity > willpower, breath-posture-attention links, meeting hygiene that lowers stress, and minimum-effective-dose routines for busy humans.

Vagus Nerve The vagus nerve is the longest cranial nerve, often called the "wanderer" because it travels from your brainstem down through neck and into chest and abdomen, reaching many organs along the way.

Often referred to as the "wandering nerve", The #Vagus #Nerve, the longest cranial nerve, facilitates communication between the brain and the gut, influencing mood, immunity, and the body's stress response.
