Hi Everyone: I just started learning about the role of the Vagus nerve and its relationship to a lot of different health problems, including Fibromyalgia. The exercises online that I tried (see Sukie Baxter on YouTube) and in the book by Stanley Rosenberg are so simple, but they've had profound effects on my nervous system. I've only done these for 2 days and only briefly - as I have a very sensitized system and already can sense they are activating things. I mentioned it to my therapist and she said that she's just recently been learning about these exercises and that its only just becoming mainstream in psychology. Has anyone else done these or been treated for the Vagus nerve? Its one of the main nerves int he body that runs from the brain down to the gut and has two parts - a dorsal and ventral component and it regulates a lot of the fight or flight responses and pain, digestive function, etc etc.
