Your Vagus nerve is the longest nerve in the body, it weaves and wonders its way down from the brain stem, into a beautiful and intricate lace work of webbing flowing into your ears, your face & neck, your throat, down into your heart, your lungs, your liver, your spleen, your stomach, your pancreas and finally into your gut and your digestive system.

This complex and extraordinary nerve is the alchemist which communicates with every organ in your body and oversees a range of vital function. It controls your parasympathetic nervous system, the system which allows to you to feel calm, to rest your body and your mind, and to digest & absorb the nutrients you consume. It is driven greatly by the gut-brain connections.

A healthy Vagus nerve is THE power tool in negotiating life’s challenges & adversities to help you to escape survival mode living, and to instead flow into a calm and positive mindset and life.
