## Resource

In this clip from @theprimal.podcast, I share how daily stress, both psychological and physiological, keeps us stuck in overdrive. One of the most effective ways to combat this is to stimulate the vagus nerve. You'll learn how simple practices like breathwork, humming, laughter, eye movement, and even ice packs can help shift your body back into a state of rest and restoration. These are powerful hacks to increase vagal tone, lower stress, and even support gut health.Here is a link to watch the full episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCOSeZIQFrIChaptersCase Overview0:00 Why Meditation Works5:03 Vagus Nerve Hacks10:50 OutroTo learn more about how to book a consultation with me please check out https://aristotleeducation.comAll of my social media and official links: https://linktr.ee/pradipjamnadasmdSubscribe to the Channel! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOtQHehGWtblMp1gZC8Kq3Q?sub_confirmation=1My other videos:How Breathing Hacks the Vagus Nerve to Lower Blood Pressure & Inflammation - https://youtu.be/flDkL8bukEsWhy ‘Healthy’ People Develop Clogged Arteries & How Fasting Can Help - https://youtu.be/cXOoJKe4rugHow Fasting Naturally Lowers High Blood Pressure - https://youtu.be/ogNBtf3APFMHow the Vagus Nerve Heals Your Gut - https://youtu.be/sGQW8Tx78hMVagus Nerve Hacks - https://youtu.be/irn3cFHmK-YWhy Gut Health Affects Everything - https://youtu.be/Npy0qwgh5RMHow to Fast for Different Goals - https://youtu.be/qIcSIC_IjfMAGEs: The Surprising Link Between our Diet and Aging - https://youtu.be/rGD1BYD6N2YEvolution of Cardiac Diagnostics: A New Era with AI-Powered FFR-CT - https://youtu.be/buzfmeTpyCwReversing Diabetes - The Roles Medication and Diet Play - https://youtu.be/mWNygxUPNsAVitamin K2: The Surprising Benefits From Your Heart to Your Bones - https://www…
