Yoga Nidra for Vagus Nerve Stimulation | Calm the Nervous System

55 Minute Yoga Nidra to Calm the Nervous System | Vagus Nerve Stimulation Welcome and thank you for being here. Join Kristyn in this 55 minute yoga nidra or guided meditation to stimulate the vagus nerve and to calm the nervous system. The vagus nerve is the largest nerve matrix in the body that runs from the brainstem, down the sides of the neck and into the abdomen, wrapping around all of the vital organs. Stimulating the vagus nerve can help relax the body, calm the mind, and activate the parasympathetic division of the nervous system, rest and digest. A healthy vagal tone can have so many wonderful benefits for the autonomic nervous system and mental health and well-being, including emotional regulation and a greater connection to Self. This practice begins with some gentle breathing techniques and self massage to relax the physical body and prepare the body for the deep rest that comes in yoga nidra. Once you find stillness, simply rest back into the experience of deep listening as you are effortlessly guided into a deep state of light altered consciousness or deep wakeful sleep. Along the way, welcome in visualizations, techniques and tools to bathe the vagus nerve and the whole nervous system in healing awareness, releasing tension, and welcoming a deep sense of peace and calm within. Happy resting. Find a comfortable place to rest on the back of the body, either on your yoga mat, the couch or even in your bed. Close down the eyes and rest back into the experience of just listening. Would you like to enjoy live yoga nidra practices with me?
