Vagus Nerve: Breathing for Relaxation

[@starswift8084]

Breathing in slowly through the nose, and then slowly out through your mouth, like a silent whistle, making the out breath as long as possible. This has taken me out of air-gasping, open- mouthed, panic attacks. It REALLY works. Hope this helps Someone.🌹

[@bhasmangyajnik3632]

Thank you for sharing. Hopefully it helps me with my anxiety and panic and nervousness

[@mayrasierra1880]

I am so happy I’ve found you! Thank you for everything you teach us.

[@maryannevanoff4464]

Thank you for your “free” breathing exercise. I am grateful. I have been investigating the influence of the Vegas nerve and the relationship to breath. I read the book “breathe” and learned so much there about the breath and how it affects our whole body “performance.” Your teachings are icing on the cake. Again, most grateful.

[@bebobalula]

It's called the Vagus nerve 🍀

[@crisbrackett2067]

This is important for everything I deal with from anxiety, hyatal hernia, neck and back pain, digestion issues. This helps all of these issues for me. Thank you so very much. I wish everyone would see how we can do these things to our own bodies if we choose too. No pharma needed.

[@TuneUpFitness]

Rubber Drugs!

[@barbarasmith4560]

I had a hard time with this one because of my back pain. Ughhh

[@joyandherb]

👍😀

[@louiselydon9926]

Thank you for sharing! I too deal with anxiety neck stiff, sacral disk herniated, digestion ! How long did it take to see results? Short breathe all my life so difficulty breathing slowly. What helped you?

[@bostonmila4672]

I learned so much from this video. What a blessing. Thank you so much. I think I just figured out why my body always unconsciously moves, and shifts my pelvis upwards, anytime I’m laying down and see something unsettling on tv. I’ve been wondering why my body does this, for only a week now, and the explanation in this video, about the vagus nerve stimulation...how lifting the pelvis above the heart can induce relaxation even without the breath practice...incredible.

[@queenkalfa]

Dear Jill, thank you for your warm, compassionate and abiding presence. You are beautiful. Thank you for sharing your knowledge in such an inviting way. Truly grateful.

[@orietbardot1534]

I feel blessed for having discovered you. Bless you for your generosity of sharing this with us. Thank you, thank you.

[@LS030]

She is the most awesome teacher and human being. I’ve bought everything of hers and don’t want to be without this knowledge . 😊💥

[@ChittarupaYoga]

I think I've bought everything of hers too. So good. 😀

[@ivettea6358]

I've been working with This as well as the frequencies since X-mas day! Want to say BIG Thank you Jill, my life has continued to be more and more Peaceful, many aches have either GONE all together or subsided significantly - Blessings of Big Hugs & Faith to all in Sacred 2021 from NYC :)

[@a.b.c.520]

Hi Ivette what frequencies do you use in particular, 528? Binaural beats?

[@k.lambda4948]

"Breath Vacation" is such a great way to explain the space between the breaths that I'm going to steal it :)

[@ChittarupaYoga]

I think I'm going to too! 😅

[@christinaflores110]

Your extra tips to stimulate the vagus while expanding the diaphragmatic breathing is super helpful! Great info, thanks!

[@Easilyamusedmuppet]

Wow, Thank you. This immediately worked after trying.. it’s incredible!

[@Barryd57]

When the patient raised her lower half and the explanation that accompanied the action was excellent. Suddenly, it all made sense. Bye Bye insomnia.

[@StephiePpn]

That last one is the first of these techniques that I've felt work right away.

[@kirstymacfarlane1620]

I do a yoga practice every night and I always do a supported bridge pose and it always relaxes me so much, now I know why!

[@Whelmness]

Thank you! Used before a meditation, very relaxing.

[@cottondai]

This is great tip and deeper understanding of the deeper relaxation with extending the exhalation and different positions.

[@francescapeterson2635]

Thank you! I really appreciate this video. It is well explained and I know I can put it to use right away.

[@alandry6872]

That was surprisingly nice. Thank you X

[@paratharamgini8363]

Can you teach some excercises with breath to regularise bowel movement and complete evacuation of the gut. Thanks for your generosity 🙏

[@paratharamgini8363]

@S C thank u for your response!

[@TuneUpFitness]

This is a good place to start! Try with a pillow or rolled up towel if you do not have a Coregeous Ball: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nGW4dXh_ht6sabM

[@leonawilliams3306]

I like that concept on the breathing techniques things I never thought was important to know but I great when learn and know about something the more you understand how to benefit from it thank so much for sharing

[@cerbaugh]

This is really, really good and helpful. Love it, thank you!

[@debraleong5519]

Wish I found this a year ago! Very helpful, can't wait to try tonight. Ty

[@carolina6683]

This is great, thank you! Can’t wait to try the last one.

Where did you read that

[@Eflodur]

Sounds like anthony William

[@pollypick2854]

This is the BEST ever!!!! Thank you!!

[@wtfhappenedtome]

Wow this is amazing thank you, particularly the third exercise.

[@digi6939]

Such a great video and explanation

[@Sankalpa6512]

This is so very helpful -thank you!

[@valk8466]

That is awesome, thank you for the explanation on the mechanics and physiology.

[@nonyabidness5708]

So... Should you start seated and then move to the floor? Do all three in one session? How long should you do each pose?

[@sudipchattopadhyay2855]

Thanks for uploading most important subject on earth that is Breathing . In India 80percent casualties are from five metro from virus.

[@thomas-ud1fs]

Here is another video about breath work and viruses. Very good channel kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqiolY1jr6t6erM

[@mniman7022]

Excellent tutorial thank you so much.

[@neetuarora4163]

Wow, all of pranayama and yoga is being renamed with minimal variation. This is nice but no credit for the source of knowledge. The head down is crocodile pose.

[@chriscarrion8018]

@@neetuarora4163 I found this when I came across Steven Porges breathing on google. Do you have any other recommendations for similar techniques? Is this a form of Indian yoga? Forgive my ignorance please.

[@kumbahutt1514]

Very useful and interesting video. When is the best time of day to do this exercise?

[@ashwanikumarmehta5860]

Nice, you have perfect knowledge on the topic :information is practicable 🙏

[@lorridanzig7665]

In the video 3 different methods of breathing were shown. In one “session” would I do all 3 methods or “pick one”? How many rounds of breathing (inhale/exhale) do I do in one session? How many sessions per day? Thank you.

[@teresapenafiel9546]

I was asking myself the same question. I hope there will be an answer. Thanks.

[@ddiehl5664]

You are the best. Thank you.

Thank you very much!

[@paulheisel8555]

Such good and useful breath work Thanks

[@johnleite391]

How many times or minutes should you go through each?

[@TuneUpFitness]

Start slow! Try 3 reps to start, and see how you feel. Always adjust to what feels best for you.

[@shantiruparell304]

Thank you so much for sharing such wonderful information !😍👍🙏

[@shelleywalters3478]

Wonderful. Thank you for sharing this

[@sylviamalkahcalderoncourie6561]

Many Blessings for Simplicity

[@girlwithflowers8058]

What is the point of holding the pillow in the first exercise? Is it a self-soothing thing or maybe for people who are not comfortable touching their bodies? I used to automatically reach for pillows when I did therapy with a male psychotherapist. Now I work with a woman and the need to hide or cover behind something has slowly diminished. If this questions has been asked before, I apologize in advance!

[@jeffreymichaelnorton]

Thanks 🫂 this came along right when I needed it.

[@mokuho]

It feels very good! Thank you so much...🙏🏻❤️

[@kimmccullough6524]

dimb question- do you breathe in through mouth and out through mouth or inhale through noise and out through mouth?

[@candyherod8333]

What kind of ball is used for the exercises with the ball - A yoga ball???

[@francescapeterson2635]

Hi. I believe it’s a coregeous ball, I found mine on amazon. I hope this helps.

[@TuneUpFitness]

James is correct! It's our Coregeous Ball, found on our website here: www.tuneupfitness.com/coregeous-ball

[@jessicaburgers]

2 questions: - breathe in and out through nose? - i have yo yaw immediately after breathing out so i cannot hold for 6 seconds??? - why the 2nd exercise you hold 4 seconds after breathing out?

[@mishabee932]

This is too cool for school!

[@godsdaughter7556]

This is how I teach my clients to breathe during labor.

[@ralphlouis2705]

I could actually feel all parts working to reduce fear and anxiety

[@TaraTatangelo]

interesting as to when I started watching this video immediately my breathing changed. I am not interested in making a recording to go along to music to listen to to subliminally remind me to breathe. hehe thank you

[@Moveallways]

The vagus nerve is considered a latter, then the folks in freezer who would move through the sympathetic state before entering the Ventral Vagus Nerve State. How would these show up in the body as it move through the latter?

[@ubershredder1989]

Are there any side effects to doing these exercises initially? I am definitely seeing the benefits at this early stage, but I also sometimes observe spikes in anxiety and pulse (not sure about BP, haven't measured) also a little bit of pain in my head. Could this be the body or nervous system adapting to changes? Like blood ph/chemical levels? Or the nervous system adapting to a more parasympathetic state?? James Nestor mentioned he was sweating hard during his first Breathing session, before he delved into the subject.. Why was that? thanks.

[@karlasabolic5426]

Definetely, I have expirienced this a couple of times and I have got to say… coming back from fight/flight into normal is hard and the body does need some time to adjust…. Resting period is usually longer then dull on action

[@dianeherbert7300]

Thank you, this fantastic!

[@kimhunt2813]

Do you want to exhale through the nose or mouth when doing these exercises? Does it make a difference?

[@1STLUCKYB]

Very clear instructions. Thanks 👍

[@happydays3678]

I'm just about to try this. Thanks so much for the information and clear instruction/demonstration. ❤🙏😘

[@eugenevienneau3071]

not sure if I am asking the right question but are you saying that during a hold you should hold as long as possible to improve the stimulation of the vegas ?

[@Whisperkissper]

Thank you enormously for these videos. Would you consider going through the directions a little slower as my vagus nerve is not syncing with the fast pace.

[@nonyabidness5708]

You can slow the video speed to .75

[@TuneUpFitness]

Great suggestion! We also encourage you to watch the video a full time through, and then begin your practice. Enjoy!

[@tjgrafiks]

What if there is poss vagus nerve impairment that’s causing a constant state of stress leading to systemic inflammation

[@laurielawson8711]

Yes! Loved this. Thank you. ❤

[@Daliferrio]

Thank you !

[@Mustachio63]

Hi new sub here, I’m very healthy but have exercise induce Afib, just turning 60, they had me on beta blockers but that made me feel horrible, so after a month I stoped them, my research has told me that my rest and digest vagus side is not working, I was under lots of stress for 4 years taking care of my mom, I’m noticing that when I workout it takes me longer for my heart rate to come down, it appears I have a slower rate of recovery, again I believe it’s my atomic nervous system not doing it’s job, will these vagus exercises help my vagus nerve heal and function better?

[@allonszenfantsjones]

check with your ophthalmologist, though; there are retinal conditions that avoid supine positions where prone is okay.

[@jannherdman1101]

With the breathing should you breath the stomach out or in to commence?

[@sarahcouture1794]

What is that ball called?

[@TuneUpFitness]

The Corgeous Ball. You can find it on our website here: www.tuneupfitness.com/coregeous-ball

[@kimhunt2813]

Do you exhale through the nose or mouth when doing these exercises? Is there a difference in effect on the body or benefits?

[@a.b.c.520]

Buteyko and many other specialists, even in yoga, recommand to always inhale and exhale through your nose. Never through your mouth.

[@elaineprince3052]

Hi what is name of the ball?

[@TuneUpFitness]

This is the Coregeous ball which has a unique grippy skin to help with shear and myofascial massage. You can learn more and purchase here: www.tuneupfitness.com/coregeous-ball

[@gerald4888]

Tell me please ,what is the size of the coregeous ball you are using in this video? Thank you

[@TuneUpFitness]

There is only one size Coregeous Ball, but it is air-filled so you can adjust it to as full as you like! We recommend starting around 80% full, and decreasing or increasing from there based on what your body tells you: www.tuneupfitness.com/coregeous-ball

[@kennethlukes1897]

Hello I have lung cancer. My vegus nerve is pinched. I have only one lung. I struggle to fill my lung at all due to discomfort. Slowing down my breathing to a count greater than 6 makes me feel like it is hard to breathe. I have had this technique recommended by homeopathic practitioners and I feel like I can make it through only one cycle before I have to stop the cycle. It makes me feel like I am not getting enough oxygen. Please help.

[@jeff420sparky8]

can you show how to calm heavy breathing down after intense workout?

There are two teachers, one that we should have and one that we want.

[@paulapoblete1090]

I feel anxious as I exhale slowly. I am able to do it, but I feel I can't breathe while I exhale... Weird?

[@cindeeegan1994]

Where can I get that ball from ?

[@TuneUpFitness]

Our website! www.tuneupfitness.com/coregeous-ball

[@genevievehaven3773]

I have tried this breathing before and I don't see how this can help because the longer exhale makes me feel like i'm not getting enough oxygen and feels stressful .

[@Goodvybesonly]

Terrific! Thank you❤️

[@drewforrest]

Are these techniques the foundation of the Wim Hof method? They feel quite similar

[@jillmiller389]

No, I met Wim a few years ago and enjoy his techniques, but I've been studying Breathwork for more than 40 years (started as a vocalist) and teaching for 20. These are best practices that I've accumulated along the way.

[@chriscarrion8018]

Seems like a slowed down version of Wim Hof breathing right? It felt lovely!

[@lavkyn]

Am I not breathing correctly? It makes me a little dizzy

I suspect this would work even better when grounded to the earth in the grass outside. This may be why watching the clouds was so enjoyable as a child.

[@julie5668]

Shouldn't you breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth?

[@TuneUpFitness]

Hi Julie, It really depends on the intention of the breath and what you want to gain from the exercise. In this case, due to the limited passage way in nasal breathing a natural consequence is slower breathing which activates the parasympathetic system for increased down-regulation. We're going to be covering breathing in depth during early 2022 - we have some exciting projects in the works and can't wait to share.

[@emmajones3131]

Thanks really helpful
