Do you suffer from stress and anxiety? Do you get overwhelmed with worry, overthinking things that are out of your control?
In this video, I’ll show you how to use ancient yoga techniques to stimulate your parasympathetic nervous system response to help you calm down, relax, and find greater peace and balance in your life.
The key is to stimulate your vagus nerve - the nerve that runs down either side of your neck. It plays a key role in stimulating your body’s parasympathetic nervous system (rest and digest mode) which is involved in a host of important bodily functions, including stabilizing your mood, digestion and heart rate.
When your vagus nerve is operating optimally it’s referred to as high vagal tone. This doesn’t mean you’ll never feel anxious or upset, but it does mean that you’ll be able to respond rather than react in those moments. And you’ll be much more adept at self-soothing and calming yourself down when a situation arises.

ANATOMY
What is the vagus nerve? The name vagus comes from Latin, meaning ‘to wander’, like a vagabond. This 10th cranial nerve wanders throughout your thoracic cavity. It innervates some of the most important muscles and is responsible for some vital functions such as: breathing, speaking, swallowing, blood pressure, heart rate, orgasm, taste, circulation, digestion, gut health, and more.
The nerve itself sits within a fascial tube, called the carotid sheath. The carotid sheath is an important landmark in head and neck anatomy and contains several vital neurovascular structures, including the carotid artery, jugular vein, vagus nerve, and sympathetic plexus.
Once you understand what the vagus nerve is and why it’s important, this video will offer you some simple ways to stimulate this nerve to self-soothe and calm yourself down when you need to.
COMMON SIGNS OF LOW VAGAL TONE
1) Feeling anxious and stressed
2) Feeling wired but tired
3) Feeling overwhelmed with worry
3 TRICKS WE'LL LEARN FOR HIGH VAGAL TONE
1) Bhramari (humming)
2) Triangle Breathing with Chin Lock
3) Ear Massage

The ear massage is incredible, I felt relaxed right away! Thanks for this great video.
God bless you! Fantastic

hi could you link studies regarding the claims in this? like test 1 relationship between nasal dominance and ANS/PNS.
what do you do for highly sensitive people?
Anxiety happens when you think you have to figure out everything all at once. Breathe.You're strong. You got this . Take it day by day.
Psychedelics definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression, I would like to try them again but it's just so hard to source here
I have been having constant and unbearable anxiety because of university. Dr.healingstrain is life saver. Thank you
my whole outlook on life.I became a better LSD and mushrooms completely changed version of myself This experience gave me a A bunch of bad thought / behavior patterns lot of confidence about my self and my body
Where to search?? Is it IG??
I also highly recommend them! I've been using their mushrooms for a while now and I've noticed a significant improvement in my mood and anxiety levels. It's been a lifesaver for me.
To anybody who's reading this, I pray that whatever is hurting you or whatever you are constantly stressing about gets better. May the dark thoughts, the overthinking, and the doubt exit your mind. May clarity replace confusion. May peace and calmness fill your life. 🙏
And the same for you my friend ❤️
Thank you and the dame for you 🙏❤🙏
Same not dame 😊
Thank you so much!🙏
Thank you same to you
I'm a Hindu. The vagus nerve stimulation from humming is exactly what we do with "Om"
To calm the mind before focusing on prayer or work. Love the video ❤
yes absolutely.......
I just commented, asking this question! That makes so much sense as to why it was familiar.
Om bhur bhuva suvaha
Tat savitur varenyam...
I learned a low, slow, calming melody line for the Gayatri mantra in South India in 1988. The other melody, sung and heard more often in North India and Nepal doesn't work the same for me. Peace, happiness, to all beings everywhere.
Life requires a focused mind. Hinduism (and all mysticisms) is a rationalization of the unfocused mind. Anxiety is a warning sign. Dont ignore it. Reject Hinduism and focus your mind.
@@TeaParty1776 question is not of forced or unfocused mind but finding consciousness the whole purpose it to reorient mind accordingly forgetting or not forgetting hinduism has got nothing to do with it , question is of relaxation .
I come from a family that has neglected serious mental health issues like this for 3 generations (that I have met). It is interesting to see how each mother in my family has dealt with anxiety. Each generation has improved it, but not fully addressed the anxiety response itself. My grandma has a body full of disease mostly due to chronic stress, my mother following in her footsteps at age 60. Im 24 and I refuse to develop these health issues, and I am determined to address this anxiety and save my body from a lifetime of chronic stress. It’s possible people!!
I'm on a very similar path. Best of luck to you!
Breaking those chains! Way to go. I am committed to the same cause. Blessings to you!
❤❤❤
Possible but Difficult
Good for you !!❤
8:53 Bhramari 10x

I stopped watching cable TV news and my anxiety stoppeed.
I think that is for a better strategy. Crisis news = crisis inside.
Me, too
Funny how that works…❤
Yes! Stop listening to the loud authoritative voice on TV. The news and most reporters used to be an independent, objective source of important information. Now most just exist to sell pharmaceuticals…
@@pasqualz Leftists deny objectivity.
Psilocybin saved my life. I was addicted to heroin for 15 years and after Psilocybin treatment I will be 3 years clean in September. I have zero cravings. This is something that truly needs to be more broadly used in addiction treatment.
Psychedelics definitely have potential to deal with mental health issues such as anxiety and depression, I would like to give them a try but haven't found any legit grower to get it.

The Trips I've been having have really helped me a lot,I finally feel in control of my emotions and my future and things that used to be mundane to me now seem incredible and full of nuance on top of that I'm way less driven by my ego and I have alot more empathy as well

It’s crazy now that I remember my father used to give me ear massages because I couldn’t fall asleep. It all makes sense now😊

That's very sweet. 💕
what about a cranial, head massage?
@@_Wai_Wai_ My husband did that to our children to help them get to sleep.
I wish I had a childhood like that
THANK YOU!!! I struggle with complex PTSD and it's so hard to calm myself down without help. These techniques really helped and I can use them throughout the day when I feel the stress building or the paranoid anxiety. To anyone out there struggling with PTSD of any kind I feel your pain and I understand your struggle. You are not alone even though your brain may tell you otherwise.
Its a continuous struggle daily - I try different techniques and coming back to my breath - usually helps me the most. Ideally, the more and more we practice these techniques, our brain, as it is neuroplastic, should adapt and get the message that we are safe and it should lower the amount of times it triggers these alarms! Stay strong everyone!
It's tough .. really tough.
With meditation saying "I am not the body,
I am not even this mind. " Helps to calm me and put experience into perspective.

Roxy, the paranoia is real😳. The good thing is, I recognize the craziness of the thoughts😀
I know how you feel because I have the same problem because I have a vagus nerve stimulator too so I can't stand the way it is at times
Aside from the valuable information given in this video, can we just take a moment to acknowledge his speaking/presentation skills? Wow! So articulate, engaging, relatable. I could go on. This is the voice and body language of a great teacher. Not sure if this was a one man job or not, but this video is excellent and I intend to share it. Thank you so much for sharing it with us! Blessings on your future endeavors Lucas!
Oh thank you so much!
I was thinking the same. Very informative too. Can I get his voice for my gps?
Ladies calm down. We all have eyes.

@@YOGABODY.Official i agree with them!!!
For some people with severe anxiety, talking about about this subject is stressful. But your calm demeanor really makes us calm.
I actually suffered severe depression and anxiety for over 8 years due to work stress and other life issues which led to my addiction to alcohol. Not until I came across psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 4 years clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.
they saved you from death bud, lets be honest here. and mushrooms are one of the most amazing things on this planet i wish people would all realize. they could solve a lot of problems, more than just mental treatments, environmental clean up; the possibilities are endless with fungus.
I've been looking to try shrooms for depression, just very difficult to get a reliable source here in Australia. Really need!
Psychedelics/psilocybin made me quit a lot of bad habits and gave me a more positive outlook on life and the appreciation for other people.The day after one trip I came out as a better me, nothing can compare, I owe it to psychedelics, it cannot be described in words.
How do I reach out? Can I find him on insta
My first experience with shrooms cleared
my mind and I started seeing the world on a
whole new level
I felt my heart racing, felt my palpitations going wild, felt my body shaking and stressing…did just the first exercise you showed, my body instantly relaxed! Thank you so much!!!!
I’m constantly wired but tired.
Ear massage immediately helped me relax to the point I started laughing. Can’t believe I never thought about it before. Thanks man!
I've never related to a sentence so hard in my life, feel that deep.
It gave me a coughing fit LOL, I am away to try it again !.... I just did it, no coughing this time, but like you a small laugh came out, this is wild. Thanks for sharing that.
Wired but tired is that perfect description I could never come up. The ear massage made me yawn like crazy.
Wired but tired! - sounds familiar...
I laughed too 😂 thought I was the only one who just had the urge to laugh
I meditate all the time with humming, now I know why it feels like a calming brain massage
This is a great reminder that the body is not the medium for anxiety’s messages, it is a partner in generating and sustaining anxiety. Those of us with anxiety disorders can’t always “think away” anxiety because our bodies are doing their own, separate thing while it’s happening. And, as he mentions, it’s not about never feeling anxious (or angry, another expression of anxiety), which everyone does, it’s about recovering quickly to a calm state when you do.
Wow. Thank you so much for this, Lucas. I've been researching ways to help manage my complex-PTSD for over 4 years now. It's a living hell - nightmares, panic attacks, anxiety, depression - the whole lot. I have tried EMDR, EFT, 7 different medications, meditation apps, reiki/massage, CBT, talking therapy... and yet I have never seen or found mention of the yogic techniques you present. I've literally just gone through the exercises as you talked me through them and, for the first time in 5 years, I've managed to get my heart rate back down and I genuinely feel calm.
My blood pressure is consistently through the roof from the panic attacks and stress response...I haven't seen it go down to a normal level the whole time I've had c-PTSD. It's insane what just happened there. I can't describe how great that feels. It feels like a miracle. I feel better in my body right now, and it gives me hope that I'll still be able to get better long term. Thank you so much.
Sounds like you're on the right path... keep going!
Your message is hope for me, thanks
Wow! Thank you so much for sharing
That’s great for you, I admire your commitment and openness to try these techniques. Also surprised emdr doesn’t work for everyone? Good to know 👍🏼
@@fatimaoubella8151 I hope for your journey too, Fatima. :)
I work in a trauma ER and ICU and frequently get heart palpitations just sitting on my couch watching Netflix…. This is definitely something I’m going to try so thank you!!!!!! ❤
Look into Cordyceps Mushroom Powder. It fixed my afib and heart palpitations. It has Adenosine in it. It fixed my wifes afib. I have several people taking it.
Have you tried this stuff and does it work?
@@LOGEZZZZZBRO A tens unit stimulates the vagus nerve. Lots of videos showing how to do it.
I had heart palpitations from just sitting and using mu computer. Nothing stressful. They went away after taking magnesium supplements and exercising again (i took a break for awhile). Magnesium seemed to really helped in a very noticeable way.
@@shmeepurt whta type of magnesium?
I'm a psychiatrist, i think these will help lots of my patients, especially those who can't afford invasive vagal nerve stimulation
I stopped reading the news and my anxiety practically VANISHED 💨
Whatever makes you less stressed and anxious, go for it!

I actually had a vagus nerve attack from my stomach to my neck and jaw. I thought it was a heart attack it hurt so bad. After an ER trip I was told to go to my heart doctor I do have heart issues. My heart Dr had previously told me I had a blocked artery, they went in and checked. Low and behold the artery that feeds the left side of my body, the ones that come out the top of the heart, well it grew on the left side wrapped around behind and then goes up. A miracle!! He told me to go to my stomach Dr who found a precancerous polyp, hpilori, and some kind of metaplasia. He removed the polyp and three years later I was due for my next scope. Everything was gone!! Another miracle! I do have spinal problems and one is facet syndrome. Misplaced pain. I can itch my toe and it hurts in my shoulder. I don’t know if that’s what caused the initial vagus reaction but I thank God it happened. A sequence of events that saved my life. I still have purpose thank you Jesus.
Wow dude this video was recommended to me out of nowhere. Just doing one set of each helped more than any techniques any therapist has ever given me. It’s so far past general anxiety with me. I have constant panic attacks. At least twice a day. No medication. I’ve been in and out of the hospital when it gets unbearable. It’s a living hell. So any little bit helps. Thank you
I'm praying for healing for you. In December my anxiety reached its peak and I ended up in the hospital with heart palpitations from the intense stress. Since you're not on medication, I'd recommend Magnesium glycinate, Magnesium threonate, Inositol powder, and CBD. Journaling, Meditating, and Cold Showers have gone a long way for me as well. Wishing you the best my friend, you're not alone!!
So sorry to hear it. I can sort of relate. I'm seeing a doctor Wednesday to figure this shit out, as I'm experiencing what may be pericarditis, or bad anxiety that also may be causing me panic attacks, that is if it isn't heart issue related. Im almost 40, so hard to say. But, it is a living hell at times smh. I was sitting in my car at a stoplight and suddenly felt like i was going to pass out and it was very scary to feel the body going out of my control. I hope we can all find relief!
Pl don’t use word like “dude”
It minimizes a person !
I hope you’re doing better than you were. Have you ever tried any of these supplements: ashwaghanda, l- theanine, magnesium. The 3 best anxiety supplements I’ve used.
I've experienced all the above & more. Along with clean diet, no refined carbs, walking outdoors, etc. I still need MEDS to keep those worst symptoms & related ER visits at bay. It's worth it. I'm 58. Get an empathetic doctor.
& I've been taking magnesium daily for 20 years. Recently into Reishi tea (grind dried slices in coffee grinder) & sauteed Lion's Mane mushrooms. Also eat grass -fed beef liver 1x week. All that helps too 😌
& cool or cold showers as tparker mentions above. Took one yesterday as when sleep deprived I run hot. Instant relief.
Im getting anxiety waiting for him to get to the point.
This isn't TikTok. Settle down

I used to struggle with panic attacks myself, but today everything is much different. There was also anxiety. I wish you all a speedy recovery🌼
what helped for the panic attacks?
How'd you overcome the panic attack ?
I am also suffering from these panic attacks, kindly share info if u have..neurologist prescribed me clonazepam
@@Vnsh27the first med that helped was called hydroxizine. It's a more mild anxiety relief but the first time I took it was the first time I slept properly in months. You can get it otc I think or something like it, but I recommend trying it, I still take it every night

Absolutely amazing breathtaking..!💓😊🙏💖💖💖💖💖💖👌👌🎉THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!
When I was a child I used to modulate my humming with not just frequency, but tempo to clam myself and to sleep. As a baby I almost died and sadly I spent my first 3 months in a hospital. My mother said long ago, that I started humming in the hospital, that humming was always a part of my bedtime routine. Humming has always helped calm myself regardless if I was in physical, mental, or emotional destress. Though I knew well enough when I was young to hum even when I was in a great mood too. This is all true to this day 53 years later. Though I must add that I don't need to hum as much as I needed in my youth, as I am better able to dance through my emotions more gracefully. These days I have to make a point to hum, and that when I do put effort into it, that I defiantly feel I am resonating higher. As my life transforms, so does the reason I hum.
Interesting! Thanks for sharing, Andy!
Andy HarperArbo I almost died before I was born, my twin did not survive. I find it interesting that you, as well, had such a trauma as a baby. I’ve always felt like something happened, like a NDE, but I just can’t put my finger on it. I’m curious if you have felt the same? I do believe I had TBI that went unknown. Just curious, I’ve always been “haunted” by the car accident my mom had just before I was born.
BzMama , There are many things in this life that a lot of us experience that we cannot explain . I know I have experienced things that I wonder about and why the purpose of it and spent too many years overthinking it and suffering from the memories. I am now in my mid 70s and I realize that if I had had some counseling I would not have had to relive the trauma or at least for so long but that I would’ve found a healing and let the past be in the past and thank God for the good times in my life and for the people around me that love me . I pray that you can move on and if you feel you need to speak to someone to get a better understanding and then move on then I pray that you’ll find someone that can help you to let go and move on in your life . ❤
Glad ur here today! Keep humming and prosper!!

I cannot say how thankful I am. My therapist suggested I look into this because I was struggling to regulate my anxiety. And this video was SO incredible at explaining it and the exercises. THANK YOU.
The techniques start at 8:13. You’re welcome.
It worked! Thank you! I clicked on this video because I was in the middle of an anxiety attack and tried the techniques as you were doing them. The humming helped tremendously and immediately, the neck lock helped as well. I couldn't really tell if the ear technique worked because the first two had already calmed me down. Thank you again! I will be using these techniques from now on.
Glad to here it was helpful!
Wow, have been doing the deep breathing with extended diaphragm since I learned it in martial Arts 40 years ago. Had no idea why it worked so well until now, hearing that the Vagus nerve is stimulated/affected by this breathing is fascinating! Thank you!
So glad I came across this channel. Phenomenal teacher
Omg - that’s true…I go to bed so tired, but say it’s like my brain won’t switch off and I can feel my anxiety overtake me.

My vagus nerve was affected by my poor gut health. I finally have an answer to why I feel unnecessarily uncomfortable and anxious. It makes me feel SOO much better knowing why I feel this way and how to treat it
What did you find out?
@@djlupe8
Gut health strongly affects inflammation of your vagus. I felt almost completely normal after a few weeks of not eating junk foods and working out, and now after 4 months, it's like that whole ordeal never even happened
@@Kadukunahaluu I love this response, can I ask how you got such poor gut health?
@@mr.drummond2250
I think it was because I was eating a bunch of junk foods at the time. I am completely fine now, though

Just found you, this video is a gem! Thank you for giving a substantive and practical explanation of the vagus nerve - much better than the other videos I'd watched previously. Subscribed, looking forward to checking out more of your channel.
These are great. Another one is to use your eyes to look to the upward corner of your eyes for 30 seconds to the right and 30 seconds to the left. Longer if you like. It often will stimulate a deep yawn of relaxation.
This made me sneeze xD
Wow I did yawn soon after doing that!
@@jessyfenny It has to do with stimulating the Vegas nerve which stimulates the parasympathetic which causes relaxation.
Excellent method. Thank you Hank
Hello Lucas! I'm very pleased that I randomly fell on your video.
I'm an ENT doctor and I found all these techniques very interesting. Especially about the Bramari, I'll suggest it to my patients, who have chronic rhinosinusitis. This chronic inflammation provokes the concentration of nitric acid inside the cavities. In addition, there's a poor ventilation of the cavities, and so these conditions create a vicious circle.
Thanks again for the tips! Stay safe and healthy!
Thank you Alice!
Lucas and Dr. Alice, to your knowledge, is the uvula test or Nostral cycle test based on science?
To add a possibility to the CAUSES of rhinosinusitis, please look into Mast Cell disorders, Lectins, Histamine and Salicilate Intolerances. After 6 years of plugged sinuses, I used the Blood Type Diet app (Eat right for Your Type) by Peter D'Adamo and TOTALLY CLEARED MY SINUSES! Why? Coconut, Tapioca, Cassava and other foods are avoid Lectins for My blood type! Being dairy and gluten free, I had switched to consuming more of them. They are hidden in many foods also. Mast Cell people say if antihistamines are needed more than 3x in 1 YEAR, then look into a Mast Cell Disorder of some level.
I DO agree that if one DOES get stuffed up as I do when I eat these food items, these yoga techniques DO WORK .
@@amurphful I think he said yes it is! I know my daughter suffered with stress and autoimmune disease and hooked her up to a computer and did 3 cycles of yoga breath and after three cycles of breathing into the count of four and exhaling to the count of six the whole screen turned green because all the systems in our bodies relax if we do yoga breath.. I know thats not your exact question but he did say this was science based…
Would you mind explaining the correlation of Chronic inflammation, and concentration of nitric acid in your cavities and how it correlates with anxiety? Am I understanding correctly? Thank you for your explanation.
Thank you so much, Lucas 🙏🏽❤

Oh my! This works! Something made me so angry before watching this video. I’m going to do these everyday. I work a high stress job and my extended family is a delight to deal with. These exercises have really helped!!!!
Awesome advice! As a medic for over 30 years, I’ve used vagal stimulation to slow heart rates on patients with supraventricular tachycardia…you must be careful NOT to over stimulate or have a known high vagal tone. I have also responded to folks that are dead on the toilet from straining to have a BM. I have also responded to cardiac arrests from what was described a “a coughing fit” by the family..agin overstimulation of the nerve. Be careful if you have high vagal tone!
Interesting! What types of vagal stimulation have you used responding to patients?
What is BM? I'm sorry I'm not fluent in english
@@yodatama bowel movement. Don’t strain.
@@alyssaparker7811 oh ok thank you
we use air pressure first….deep breath and squeeze like a bowel movement next, we will try another breathing technique w a deep breath and pull the knees to the chest and squeeze w arms around the legs and a last resort for manual stimulation due to the possibility of arterial plaque being a possible cause of embolism..carotid massage, We also use the beta blocker Cardizem and Adenosine to correct the supraventricular tacycardias

You are a terrific instructor/ teacher. I was able to understand the process, technique and benefits. Thank you. I am very grateful. 💟
This is such a well taught, down to earth lesson. Thank you for your thorough explanation and demonstration! Subscribed!
Thank you!
These techniques are well presented and the animations are nice too! Excellent voice. Very very nice. Just as if I was in yoga class. When are you coming to hamburg?
Bhramari felt so calming, had a panic episode months ago and still recovering, left medication 4 months ago but still feeling low. Thank you, definitely sharing ❤
One of the best knowledgeable videos I've seen in a while 👌🏼👏🏼
Thank you for the kind words!

OMG!! This is SPOT-ON!! The air flows through my right nostril much more freely!! No wonder at all, since I seem to be stuck in the sympathetic state mostly these days!
Thanks Lien Ton!
Ok - that was amazing! Short version of this story: I got up this: morning but wasn’t “awake” - with a raging headache, so stressed out and so exhausted that I was just going to go back to bed, I decided to try the “embarrassing” humming sound and it worked!!!! My headache evaporated! My stress disappeared! And My exhaustion was gone! I felt energy run through my limbs. That was incredible! I’m convinced. You have a new subscriber. Thank you - I now have the energy to fix Thanksgiving dinner for 75 people. Did I mentioned that was incredible?! 😃

I have a hiatal hernia which causes pressure on my vagus nerve producing sympathetic symptoms like anxiety, high blood pressure, and shortness of breath. I just tried your techniques and they helped me immediately. Thank you so very much.
U deal with pressure in your ears or throat?
I don’t know why but I started to feel emotional just knowing some of these techniques sorta worked and then looking at this guys face and sensing his kindness and happy demeanor while having a sorta deep appreciation for pulling me out of my anxiety. Thank you.
Appreciate the kind words! Hoping you find my videos of any help to you!
Hope it helps, buttery1toast!
Love this! Deal with PTSD only things I’ve found help has been meditation, cold showers and breathing exercises. Can’t wait to add this into my practise. Thank you.
Thank you so much! I practiced some of these techniques while on a delayed flight unable to leave the plane. I could feel the panic coming on and I ran through the breathing and managed to get through it. I'm so pleased I watched this a month ago, I had no idea I'd be using it in such a situation. 🙏
Thanks for sharing your experience...
I am neurodiverse so anxiety is a constant for me. Emotional regulation, I don't know her! XD I very much appreciate this video. It helps to remember how to check in with my body, try to relax what muscles I can & do these techniques 🌸
Now i realize why I did this low humming sounds whenever I was down with sickness…. interesting . Thank you
Brahmari, Triangle breathing and ear massage are wonderful ways to calm vegus nerve and activate parasympathetic nervous system. Thank you
Thank you Lucas! Yes, that's why I teach everyone to sing like an opera singer, even if just for fun and for a few minutes or even seconds a day! It stimulates the entire vagus nerve everywhere in the body, because the body is holistically stimulated. Great video.
Thanks so much, Lucas. You're a gifted teacher. Presentation skills are impeccable. And so exude confidence on video. So much practice paying off on camera.
WOW. Thank you so much. I've tried everything, and this one definitely helped.
You're very welcome! Glad it helped.

thank you so much. I have been suffering with horrible anxiety the last week, and I couldn't get out of the cycle. These videos really help me!
I immediately felt a rush of blood flow and release of some tension. So glad I found your channel.
Deb Dana was a lecturer at the university I attended here in Maine. She taught a trauma class in the school of Social Work while also running her group practice for survivors of - primarily - sexual abuse. From there, she moved to the lecture circuit locally and then nationally. I have always admired her and am in awe of how her teachings have traveled even to the content creator of this video. The last time I attended one of her workshops was about 8 years ago, but everything said in this video is spot on with what Deb teaches in her warm and kind way.
The best advice in the most concise and no-fluff format ever. Thanks
Thanks!
I find the box breathing method works really well for me. Same as triangle breathing except you hold for 4s before breathing in, so 4s inhale, 4s hold, 4s exhale, 4s hold, and repeat.
Thank you. Lots of videos talk about stress and anxiety, but you've provided some actual tools and techniques to help change state.
Glad it helped!

Hey I just like to thank you a lot. Your videos are very informative. These techniques worked for me. Liked and subscribed.
I am so glad that I found this video. I have been looking for science based yoga techniques to help with my recovery from PTSD.
I came to yoga for PTSD. I was especially drawn to the rhythmic breathing of ashtanga, I like to say it saved my life. Well done, thanks for presenting it in way that is useful and interesting! As a teacher and practitioner, I approve this message! 👍👍
Do you still experience PTSD?
Sometimes, and when I do I know what to do. 🙏🏽💜
Can u please suggest a link of ashtanga rhythmic breathing which helped you
I recovered from addiction to pain pills in this way. I always say ashtanga literally saved my life.
@@mayankchaturvedi5950 watch the video you are commenting on, it shows rythmic breathing
Such amazingly helpful tips! Thank you, thank you!
I'm thrilled these tips hit the mark for you @marilynoverton8142!

Lucas, THANK YOU.❤❤❤ this is great video which can save many people, I think. All the love, all the blessings to you❤❤❤
Thank you. Sometimes I wake up feeling panicked, and for a few seconds I need to remind myself where I am. Sometime I get that kick in the gut feeling and my heart starts pounding out of nowhere and I have been looking for ways to calm down.
@KaboGareatsh
Yes, I do also, it is an awful feeling-I hate to go bk to sleep cuz scared of it happening again. Glad to find this!
This was the first time I watched a video from you and honestly I love the way you share your knowledge, the way you manage and organize the video and how you talk about your topic.
Really interesting and helpful video.
Thank you Lucas !
Even 1 year later,
These things do wonders. Thank you!!
I'm currently in a very toxic work environment. Micromanaging, overly stressed, temperamental client. With a line manager who chalks it up with us just being emotional and that my client is Indian and the way she is, is very typical of Indians. So lack of managerial support, sprinkled in with a dash of racism.
I've been suffering from anxiety, worrying about Mondays since October.
The triangle breathing and the ear thing works wonders for me. I feel a touch lighter.
So thank you so much!!
I am going through the exact same thing right now. I start worrying about work on Monday as soon as I leave Friday night. 😢
That ear massage works like a friggin charm. Thanks so much.
The triangle breathing helped so much, I have a terminal illness and I was panicking as I do throughout my days but this really helped. Thank you.
Glad to hear it helped!
This was PHENOMENAL. I take yoga regularly and took the course from Andre Weill on breather techniques but this is so effective. Thanks for bringing this to us Keep up the great work that you do. Your guidance is so productive in our lives, thanks you
Thank you, James!
Thanks for the video, I am excited practice these techniques.
You're most welcome! Enjoy your practice.

The first humming excerecise is just pure gold ❤ Calms my nerves instantly.
Thank you! My health has gotten so much better since finding your teachings. 😊
So happy to hear, Nichole!
I thought I would give this a try after living in constant fight or flight mode being triggered even by laughing. I did the nose test and my right nostril was dominant. I did the exercises and started yawning and feeling like the tension in my body was melting away. I did the nose test again and my left nostril was dominant! amazing and thank you so much for such a clear and informative video. I will keep these techniques at the top of my list.
This really helped me in a very very busy time at work. Thank you - just what I was looking for
Thanks mega♥ I have known your channel just one hour ago and I have seen just 2 viedeos of you, but I have done all what you have said and I'm really excited about your channel and the way you teach, i can't stop myself to watch your other videos. I Love Yoga and i am Scientist, you show a perfekt mix of both, that is so interesting to me. wish you the best and Thank you so much✨✨

Just did the low humming one for the first time and my cat’s got freaked out and ran away from me😂 but thank you for sharing this video. I’ve got lots to deal with as for the job, family being hospitalised, taking care of elderly dog and young, playful cat I’m an inch close to shut down but this actually really helps! Though it makes my cat uneasy it seems. Shall try the other ones in private!
Hope it helps!
I just did the humming one too and my two kittens were totally freaked!! Didn't last long though. They're back asleep again!! I hope you're doing better and that things have settled down in your life.
It goes back to the growling older cat. Grumble really deeply like you're humming. Try to make a growling sound. A deep voice of a man can do it. Cats really freak out
I really appreciate repeating everything in the middle and at the end. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your comprehensive and helpful way of teaching. I really appreciated your perspective today. Blessings!
Thank you!
