Publisher's Summary

When your lover kisses your throat or the skin behind your ear, this pair of nerves helps you feel it. If a doctor tickles certain spots in your throat with a cotton swab, it causes you to gag. When you eat, it helps food move through your digestive tract.

Why should you care, though, about the vagus nerve? After all, it doesn’t sound as exciting as Vegas.

If you have certain illnesses or symptoms, a poorly functioning vagus nerve could be the culprit; that’s particularly true of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. This nerve is the longest cranial nerve in the body, running from the brain stem to the colon and affecting many organs in the body.

The good news is that you can take simple actions to stimulate your vagus nerve to function better. This information can be especially important for people with treatment-resistant depression; vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) seems to reset chemical imbalances in the mood centers of the brain.

In this easy-to-follow guide you understand the vagus nerve, the autonomic nervous system (ANS), and polyvagal theory. The book explains how vagus nerve stimulation works and examines the nerve in relation to:

  • Fatigue 
  • Stress and anxiety 
  • Epilepsy 
  • Depression, ADHD, and other cognitive issues 
  • Weight management 
  • Cardiovascular disease 
  • Roemheld syndrome 
  • Parkinson’s disease 
  • Intestinal issues and gastroparesis disease 

This version contains three chapters more about the vagus nerve in depression management and specific advices to unleash the power of this important nerve. 

Useful for bodyworkers, caregivers, psychotherapists, as well as anyone who experiences the symptoms of chronic stress and depression, this book shows how you can bring the body into the state of wellness that activates its innate capacity to heal.

It’s your body, the only one you have. Don’t let a busy life or other excuses keep you from understanding this crucial nerve. You can put an end to these disorders. There is no need to continue living with them.  

So, click the "Buy Now" button and learn how to cure your vagus nerve naturally to live the pain and stress free life that you deserve!
