Bookmark this practice called: The Neuro-Fascial Release Techique.
In order to be physically and mentally healthy, our vagus nerve has to be functioning properly. When our vagus nerve functions properly were in primarily in whatโs called social engagement mode. Weโre also flexible and able to react appropriately to stress. Weโre less susceptible to disease because our immune system is functioning at its best.
You can practice this as often as you make time for. Ideally dailyโ or any time you want to get back to a parasympathetic state.
Test your mobility before and after doing this practice. And if you canโ journal after. Notice how your emotions change when you help your body do so what it naturally does.
TO PRACTICE:
Youโll feel the occipital bone at the base of your skull. Press firmly, but NOT too hard. Move the skin to the right and hold. Then to the left. Keep breathing.
This practice was created by Stanley Rosenberg who through polyvagal theroy (Dr. Stephen Porges) initiatively understood that trauma is stored within the body. His work with clients focused on somatic practices, specially clients with depression, anxiety, and other โdisordersโ that are actually adaptions.
Please share so other people have access to the healing power that can come when we understand the role of the vagus nerve and our nervous system #selfhealers
I voted early today. There werenโt very many people, but the volunteers were kind, helpful and very effective in moving the incoming traffic lines along. Kindness beats chaos. #Vote
