Das Vagus-Training

The most comprehensive exercise book about the vagus nerve

The autonomic nervous system operates without our conscious involvement. It regulates the function of our organs and vessels and influences our hormonal and immune systems. Its significance is enormous!

In this book, you will finally learn more about this mysterious system that works constantly in the background and has such a profound impact on our physical and emotional well-being - and of course about its most prominent representative, the vagus nerve.

In the first part, you will get to know the Polyvagal Theory and the three components of the autonomic nervous system: the ancient parasympathetic system, the sympathetic system, and the new parasympathetic system. You will gain an overview of development, function, anatomy, and learn everything about the more or less pleasant regulatory states of this system.

The second part shows you how to actively promote the balance of your autonomic nervous system. With over 25 exercises, you can consciously influence this unconscious part of your nervous system - depending on whether you need relaxation or stimulation. A diverse range of exercises will demonstrate how to: use the Release Technique to relax the musculoskeletal system, organs, and even vessels, activate the cranial nerves, practice with breath, harness the power of visualization, and use healing touches to calm the limbic system and harmonize the gastrointestinal tract, for example.
