Pets offer more than companionship—they provide natural nervous system regulation through the vagus nerve, helping us switch from stress to calm. The simple act of interacting with animals releases oxytocin, activates our parasympathetic system, and builds vagal tone for greater stress resilience.

Share a picture of your pet on our Facebook page to connect with our community. Subscribe to It Starts at Vagus for weekly nervous system tips, released every Tuesday, and share with someone who could benefit.
