Hum to Activate the Vagus Nerve

Vocalization is a quick way to stimulate your vagus nerve. Vocal cord vibrations nourish the vagus nerve and strengthens vagal tone by elongating the exhales. Sing along with Jill and Stephanie, as they take you through three very distinct vocal tones designed to target specific areas that directly connect to your tenth cranial nerve. Singing aloud and together also induces a sense of community and belonging which creates a sense of peace and calm. Close your eyes, feel into the vibrations, let the vagus nerve guide you along the pathway of down regulation.

The main vagus nerve activator is the Mmmmmm sound. It vibrates in your throat area which is where your parasympathetic nervous system is concentrated. By taking a slow deep abdominal breath and then exhaling with a long Mmmm sound focusing on your throat area, you stimulate your vagus nerve. I overcame my epileptic seizures with this simple but immensely powerful technique to switch from sympathetic (fight or flight) to parasympathetic (rest & digest) nervous system. I do 25 repetitions thrice a day and it gives me a calm relaxing feeling and life suddenly seems so much better.

When I was a child I lived in a very unstable household and I started to sing from a very young age. I didn’t realise, until now, that it was my inbuilt survival that made me sing as a way of comforting myself. I have a beautiful singing voice and I see now why throughout history, so many traumatised people became great singers! The lord truly does work in mysterious ways!! Of course those who chant have clearly known this secret for a very long time indeed!! ❤️🙏

SANSKRIT is a wonderfull way to practice this sounds and fonations ( the basic fonations and mouth, toungue, glotis, larynx positions for humans). 50 syllabas, consonants and vocals. As many as lotus flours in each Chackra. And the throat level is the one who has more, 16 petals, 16 sounds, 16 mantras !! Make sound, chant, pray, sing, talk, cry, laugh, sneeze, yawn, shout out...Expression is the opposite of Depression!

You can try reverse. It will be amazing. A U M. When you say A , you can feel vibration in abdomen. When you say U, you can feel vibration in chest region. When you say M, you can feel vibration in head region. When you say AUM, you can feel vibration all together. This is excellent. Do it & feel.

I found this through tons of coaching it's really great for things. Especially for confidence and talking to the ladies. You stand up straight naturally when you like someone. It's natural. I am considered a very high tenor cause I vibrate really fast. I was nervous all the time and thought I was weird, not in control etc. People made fun of me in school for it. But now I realize that it wasn't them it was just me not figuring things out. You can just do things. I wish I would got shown this early in life. This activates all three areas of your brain bringing back into alignment. I do feel where I go now and I am very light. Like super light and I could never feel it.

Nitric oxide’s role in regulating blood flow and pressure is used by modern medicine in several ways. The drug nitroglycerin has been used since the late 19th century to relieve the condition known as angina pectoris, which is caused by an insufficient supply of blood to the heart muscle. Nitroglycerin was long known to achieve its therapeutic effect by dilating the coronary arteries (thereby increasing the flow of blood to the heart), but why it did so remained unknown until the late 1980s, when researchers realized that the drug serves to replenish the body’s supply of nitric oxide, more of which is then available to relax, and thereby widen, the coronary blood vessels.
