Vagus Nerve Stimulation: Breathing, Humming and Other Techniques

If you just sit for 10 minutes and go,

OM,

that vibration stimulates the vagus nerve.

And if you measure people's heart rate when they're doing that, it goes down.

Measure their blood pressures, it goes down.

Humming does.

Another one, laughter.

So the laughing club, start a laughing club.

The more you laugh and be good belly laughs,

you're stimulating your vagus nerve.

Pulse rate goes down, blood pressure goes down.

So who doesn't have early hypertension?

Everyone today is having hypertension?

Well then go out and start laughing.

Start laughing, start humming, start singing.

Even goggling.

So I told you that goes to the glossopharyngeal muscles.

So take some saline or even plain water and just,

but goggle, but goggle loud like you really mean it.

Not just, you goggle hard.

There should be a couple of tears come out from your eyes.

Now you're really stimulating your vagus nerve.

And that is going to definitely give you a lot of benefits.

See, right there.

So there's another hack I just taught you.

Now the biggest hack is the breathing that I already mentioned right in the beginning.

Where you breathe in, but you breathe out long, pronged exhalation.

Because you have a very large amount of representation in your lungs.

Your lungs, they have a huge representation of the vagus nerve.

So hack it. That's a big nerve.

Because you know there are small nerves that can be hacked as well.

There's one that you'll read about, because I know you're going to go home

and start looking up vagus nerve, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

But there's one called the tragus nerve,

which is right here on your ear, right here.

Right in the front.

You know this little piece sticking out here? That one.

And if you press on it hard enough and massage it,

and sometimes you can put your finger on the inside and massage it too, in that way,

it does trigger your vagus nerve.

But I think I'll be looking funny if I'm doing that and someone's walking by.

But there are instruments you can buy that actually stimulate this.

But what I'm trying to tell you is that yes, those things do work.

There are easier, cheaper, free ways to stimulate your vagus nerve, starting today.
