How To Stimulate The Vagus Nerve
The vagus nerve is the largest parasympathetic nerve in the body. It controls heart rate, heart rate variability, blood pressure, food cravings, hormones, the liver, the adrenal glands, the stomach, the lungs, how tense the face is and so much more. This nerve when in a relaxed parasympathetic state will help the body rest, recover, heal and digest. The body will restore itself much more efficiently when the vagus nerve is healthy and vagal tone is a constant practice. Add these things into your daily routine to tone your vagus nerve.
