Healing Through the Vagus Nerve

Improve Your Body’s Response to Anxiety, Depression, Stress, and Trauma Through Nervous System Regulation
In Healing Through the Vagus Nerve, join Amanda Armstrong (Rise as We) for a complete guide to understanding and working with your nervous system, including specific exercises and strategies to improve vagal tone.

“Thoroughly researched, clearly explained, and beautifully illustrated…[this book] provides powerful insights and actionable steps for regulating the nervous system.”
—Alex Korb, Ph.D., Neuroscientist, Personal Development Coach, and Author of The Upward Spiral

A somatic approach to treating trauma, anxiety, and depression has never been more popular. Perhaps that’s because recent studies show that 80% of mind-body communication originates in the body —the vagus nerve is the superhighway that facilitates this communication. 
 
Healing Through the Vagus Nerve walks you through how the nervous system and the vagus nerve function, with approachable, non-academic language and helpful illustrations. Amanda Armstrong (founder of Rise as We) teaches all about vagal tone and the impact it has on your mental health and everyday life. Then, a variety of exercises and practices provide an adaptable approach to improving nervous system function:

• Breathing techniques including diaphragmatic breathing, physiological sigh, voo breath, and the Valsalva technique
• Massage techniques for the ear, neck, and abdomen
• Visual techniques including lateral eye stretches, eye pushups, orienting, eye cupping, and gaze opening
• Physical techniques including cold exposure, yoga, and more
