Andrew, I’m grateful for your information it is been most helpful for me today. Earlier, I conducted two hours of research on the vagus nerve. Gargling, singing, humming, breathing out longer than usual. Have all helped greatly. However, after applying slight pressure, as well as massaging my vagus nerve via ear as you showed, has helped my digestive system. More specifically, my small intestine now work, meals are now being properly digested. So, I wanna thank you for sharing this most important information. Thank you have a great day!
I've been reading and researching the function of the vagus nerve and its effect on chronic anxiety and panic. All authors say singing, exercise, even gargling stimulates this extremely important nerve. Good vagal tone is essential for our bodies to work properly. This gentleman is very well schooled in the subject and in general human anatomy. Smart man.
Agreed. More useful than all that other stuff. Not dissing any of it, but it didn't work for me. This does. I gotta say, wow. I haven't felt this calm in years. From the ear part. Haven't even seen the rest of the video.
I attended your workshop at our VASTA conference in Seattle in 2018 and found it astounding and wonderful. This video is EXTREMELY helpful to me for my personal health issues as well as the spoken voice coaching I provide. THANK YOU!!! I'm ordering your book immediately.
This should be told to anyone who has surgery or spinal problems causing problems with breathing. I have had open heart surgery and two c sections and immediately felt relief. Thank you so much 💓
YOU ARE AMAZING!! Where have you been my whole life?!! I was suffering from a migraine and trying to find relief- clicked on your video- migraine GONE!!! Sleepy and ready for bed!! Thank you!! 🙏
What exactly do you mean by “sticky?” Appreciate if you can describe it in more detail. I can really feel when feel more saliva. Very interesting. I know the vagus nerve is very important. Thx so much!!

God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believe in him shall not perish but have ever lasting life. HALLELUJAH all power is given to JESUS CHRIST from his Father the God of Heaven and Earth and all the inhabitants there in including the sea amen without the Son you have not the Father says the LORD "I AM THE WAY THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE NO MAN CAN COME TO THE FATHER BUT THROUGH ME SAYS THE LORD OUR GOD JESUS CHRIST HALLELUJAH GLORY BE TO GOD amen
oh man, thank you! so glad I found you, I am a vocalist and have lost my voice due to auto immune issues and anxiety. singing is my entire life and I have been so disheartened by my throat issues. I have been seeing a functional medicine doctor who has introduced me to my vagus nerve. but you are awesome. connecting the dots now between my anxiety and my throat constriction. I can lose an entire octave if I'm stressed out before rehearsals.
I hear you. I once tried out for The Voice when it came to my town, and by the time it was my turn I physically couldn't sing at all. I assumed it was anxiety.
Emotional Freedom Technique EFT is very helpful for anxiety. I just search Brad Yates Anxiety or Julie Schiffman Panic Attacks and within 12 minutes I am calm. Your fingers and phone are always with you, though you can learn “Faster EFT” easily and just tap as you wake up or when panic comes on. These are two brilliant, intuitive EFT practitioners who generously provide hundreds of free videos for every situation. Namaste 🙏
@@MK-ih6wp they are all magnesium, but what changes is what is bound to. Glycinate is one of the best for achieving relaxation of nerves and muscles as it's the one binder which delivers the most magnesium into the system instead of flushing the intestines. Together they also help deepen sleep, which is healing.
If you want a more detailed dive into the vagus nerve and how to improve your vocal quality and anxiety levels, check out my #1 Best-Selling book "The Singing Athlete" (link in description) Also, I know the sound is not the best on this video. It was filmed during a rainstorm in an echoey space. I didn't expect this to take off as it has--so grateful for your support!
Can you please recreate this same video just a little louder, please. So many vx injuries right now, would love this info to be spread far and wide. Thank you so much, you are helping save lives.
@@jolaczerlanis269 Sukie Baxter is where I discovered Vagus nerve methods. My life is already more grounded in the last three weeks since I started doing her 15 minute ear massage every night before sleep.
@@ColorJoyLynnH same here Lynn. I do it every morning though but it will incorporate it bf bed too .. maybe it helps with my messed up sleeping pattern. Thank You.😊
I never knew the vagus nerve was so important. I stimulated my left inner ear and I became so relaxed. Thank you so much. I subscribed. I have to heal my vagus nerve.
I've just watched Neuroanatomy by Kenhub. And then clicked on to this .. A beautull sequence.. I'm not an athlete or a singer but I have a vagus nerve..and this a great hands on education.. Will come back to this... No chance of singing or being an athlete ..but I think this will help my healing. Thank you.
Your braiding comment was a eureka moment for me. I immediately thought of the general mental and physical wellness experienced in pre-Columbian and African cultures that braid hair regularly with a lot of intricacies. Clearly, there is a physiological component to health in combining what is thought of as cultural tradition with emotional and biochemical health. As these indigenous cultures have left the traditions behind they are losing these parts of their own mental health and wellbeing.
Hopefully the larynx exercises can drastically mitigate cluttering, stuttering, anticipation, perseveration and faulty vocalization and mechanical intonation, among other speech impediments.
This is just waaaay to helpful! Wow! I’ve been searching vagus nerve stuff to heal trauma. And I love to sing, and have studied that a bit too. This video combines both for me! I’m blown away.! Awesome job!
I almost fainted yesterday and the doctor said it was because of my vagus nerve.When I do these excercises, I feel dizzy.Especially with the eye darting.
Hey Andrew, this is EXACTLY what I've been searching for for the last few months. I'm a singer and am gaining awareness of "what I do so I can do what I want". I didn't know that I was "stopping my air" or more specifically constricting my throat muscles when going up into higher notes. I'm working with a teacher who is giving me great info and raising my awareness but i was confused about what was causing me to tighten my throat. Getting to the core of what's going on. I'm digesting the info in this video slowly and checking out your suggested activities. Work in progress - just wanted to say I'm so excited to find more info regarding what is going on and how to work with it. Forward head posture has also been a thing for me, I've understood that that is happening primarily because my sternum is slightly sunk in... and gets more intense when I sing and get activated about not being able to do something in whatever I'm singing. Will keep you posted! Do you also have a website and work online with singers? Ciao for now, Nicky :)
excellent - I was wondering how electrial/vibrating stimulation of ears would work😎 not a singe,r but Andrew has a *LOT* to teach about anatomy/physiology and the links between all psyco-somathic processes in the body: GENIUS
& don't forget about the digestive tract systems.... #Brain&GutConnections ..vagus nerves is such a Fascinating Topic & we need to discuss this furthermore about the info!
My ears have been popping for years since I had fibromyalgia at the age of 49 but especially so when I move. Now 62, I felt some relief in doing these exercises. I understand that the vagus nerves are involved in many diseases. I get some relief in rebounding daily and now with ear exercises.
@@Sunshine-vz2on Thanks for asking. No not healed. I tend to know when things aren't right in my body from my ears. Either they are tender or they pop. There are ok now but it's a daily thing. Like now I'm turning my head from side to side and they are making a noise the same nose. I did have crystals in my ears once, and the noise was different just to state the distinction.
I appreciate your providing us with this helpful information. I had a good nights rest after following your instructions only one time. I look forward to doing them more often. Can someone tell me the name of the instrument used in the ear to stimulate the Vegas nerve? Thank you very much.
It was very hard for me to follow along where exactly he was placing his finger, so just a tip.....pull up an ear diagram if you find the same thing to be true for you. I would pause the video, find the placement (if he stated the name of the part of the ear), and then could resume play. No point in trying these measures if we aren't in the right spot!!
I keep this video bookmarked and use the exercises with my class. Useful strategies with a life science tie-in! What's going on with the split-screen at 7:47?
Look into Morley Robbins. Anxiety is a classic example of magnesium and bio-copper deficiency, and toxic metallic iron filing overload in the tissues where it is not measured. Dr. Rick Malter covers the psychological side of this condition. He calls it "copper toxic" because the non-bio-copper can be toxic, and it.occurs along with iron overload. My view is that this toxic state overstimulates the autonomic (fight/flight) nervous system and drains it. Over time, this can lead to a crash, IMHO.
@@onetime7408 Thanks for being receptive! My friends ignore my references!!! lol. Here are some more suggestions that I think are significant: 1. Set up a cheap infrared saunas system. You only need two 250W red lamps from the hardware store and two corded reflectors. Make sure there are "guards" preventing you from touching those bulbs when hot, though. Get a short stool to sit on and build an insulated fort. Aim those reflectors at you organs and rotate to get all sides. Search "Nutrition Balancing Sauna Therapy" for more details. 2. Accept reality, and accept doing the best you can. So many people burn energy fighting what is real, AND NOBODY EVER WINS, THEY ALL JUST LOSE. You can't fight reality, you can just intelligently avoid or adapt to various toxicities. 3. Learn the Zone Diet to keep you insulin from spiking and to bring your AA/EPA ratio out of pro-inflammatory ranges. It will make sense once you read up on it. The key here, though, is to avoid fortified iron filings and to eat lots of grass fed/finished organ meats from humanely raised cows. I believe the best anti-inflammatory diet approach is a synergy between Morley's diet and the Zone Diet, coupled with a few extras. 4. Search "Rhonda Patrick broccoli sprouts.". Listen to her. Sulforaphane apparently cleans toxic iron out of the liver in a relatively safe way. Start growing an ingesting broccoli sprouts on the regular. 5. Prioritize denutrification and detoxification as a top level goal, and know you control this. It will take time, but you are now on a much better track to help yourself and others. You are NOT alone. These symptoms are engineered to occur via the denutrification and toxification agenda underlying the standard diets in most Western countries.
@@wellnesspathforme6236 Thanks again for your help. Number 1 I was ahead with...just got infrared light panel by helios, so hopefully it will help, but it's not a sauna so not sure? Number 2 is easier said than done, but I will try. I have been eating very carefully for last 12 months, intermitent fasting and low carb as healthy as I can. I will look up each suggestion...I agree with what you say though, apparently an apple in the 1950's had 70% more nutrients than an apple now. I guess that would link to a magnesium deficiency. Thank you again for the time and trouble you took.
This information is extremely valuable for anyone interested in polyvagal theory, esp. as we recognize the value of somatic trauma work (over talking therapy). Can this be done with better audio? Since this is about singing, voice, and the ear, I’d hope it was better to hear/understand.
What or why is acne developing in the occipital Area. Very itchy, & stings after stimulating VAGUS NERVE. HELP US . PLEASE?? BEEN HAPPENING for over one yr., Ago. Can you help!!!??
Great video! I'm been trying several ways to boost my Vagus Nerve, and your video was the first one that actually got me to the point where I could feel the saliva filling in my mouth! This really gives me hope, thank you so much!
I need the name of that vibratey ear tool thing please! I'm seeing so much about the vagus nerve and am separately finding the rest of your website super helpful as I'm a singing teacher in training. Fascinating stuff! I also have anxiety and an inflammatory disease (related to lupus) so this is all coming together for me.
I have so really sore spots on the back on my head that are very painful to touch. I have had them on and off for years but now i have them behind my ears too and my tinnitus gets bad at times but better at times too. When I put my finger in my right ear and open and close my mouth it feels like there is bone protruding into my hear and then when I open and pull my finger out when I close my mouth its like a loud ringing for a second. Any ideas why that happens.
Thank you so very much. Absolutely incredible. Dreadful migraines, exhaustion, gut issues, food intolerances, depression and Cptsd. Found out I have Cervical Dysfunction probably from extreme emotional trauma and abuse from my family of origin. Your insight is wonderful.
Sounds like an awesome video, could help a lot of people probably. Please please, can you actually use your words to describe the parts of the ear and face etc. because as a blind person, I don’t know what part of the ear, body you are pointing or gesturing at in the visual spectrum, I know us blind folks are the last minority, but please, practice thinking outside of the visual spectrum! Thank you and I look forward to an update of this video…
I think for me, it took a while to learn how the differences feel to me. recognizing the feelings took time. Also, I think we get better at doing it for our self once we’ve done it enough. We know which direction and in how much intensity. Don’t give it up, and don’t think you’re going to understand it the first day. All I knew was that when I did my first Vegas nerve exercise, but I felt as relieved as when noticing that something that had startled me was safe. Just feeling that relief in my chest cavity kept me going.
This is the best Vagus Nerve boost video I have seen…and I have done a lot of research. This stuff works for me. I have Gastroparesis and intestinal/colon paralysis from Vagus Nerve problems, secondary to MS. Since my entire GI tract is stopped, only a PICC line could bring nutrition and it blocked with blood clots in 6 days. I was put on palliative care. I am using your tools. From the start I got immediate results. I am a classically trained mezzo soprano also, and the singing part of the Vagus Nerve reset resonates with me. Thank you.
What helped me the most was going to a trained, certified therapeutic massage therapist who knew reflexology. She uses reflexology to stimulate the Vagus Nerve using the points on the feet. I am 70% improved. I also use the tools on the video attached to these comments.
How do we WAKE UP OUR VAGUS NERVE FUNCTIONS TO TAKE ACTIONS ( GET INTO ACTIONS TO GET JOBS WORKED OUT. CHORES, COOKING, CLEANING, LAUNDRY STRENGTH ENERGY STAMINA IS NEEDED. DEPRESSION IS HOLDING THIS PERSON BACK. PERK UP??? STOP BEING TOO CALM. OK???

I need the name of that vibratey ear tool thing please! I'm seeing so much about the vagus nerve and am separately finding the rest of your website super helpful as I'm a singing teacher in training. Fascinating stuff! I also have anxiety and an inflammatory disease (related to lupus) so this is all coming together for me.
I’m a singer suffering from chronic cough which is apparently caused by vagus nerve. Excited to try all your exercises.
Man, you are a god among men. Thanks so much for taking the time to share this with the world.
Sounds like fascia work.
Same with eye exercises. All lubricating your fascia.
I have so really sore spots on the back on my head that are very painful to touch. I have had them on and off for years but now i have them behind my ears too and my tinnitus gets bad at times but better at times too. When I put my finger in my right ear and open and close my mouth it feels like there is bone protruding into my hear and then when I open and pull my finger out when I close my mouth its like a loud ringing for a second. Any ideas why that happens.
I'll give all of it a go , singing has been had since having a vagus nerves stimulator fitter to stop fit thank u.xx
great! just what I was looking for.
wow i felt the saliva come
I saw the paper bag trick done by Robin Williams for migraines in what dreams may come. Is this a migraine solution?
Just... wow. THANK YOU!
thanks great tips for relaxation as well as energizing 🌅
I hit the subscribe because I never heard anything like this.
Thank you so much.
so facinating!
Saved this video. Thank you sooo much. God bless 😊
Difficult to follow the speech. Please speak slowly and more clearly.
Seems interesting but very difficult to follow.
What is the tool you used in your ear and where do I get it?
It was an electric toothbrush!
While healing from foot surgery I happened to be using a rolling massager heat pad, and use the pad/vibrating warmth at my ears. Helped!
Thank you so very much. Absolutely incredible. Dreadful migraines, exhaustion, gut issues, food intolerances, depression and Cptsd. Found out I have Cervical Dysfunction probably from extreme emotional trauma and abuse from my family of origin. Your insight is wonderful.
Si potrebbe avere questo bel video sottotitolato in lingua italiana?grazie
Fantastic information thank you so much.
Thank you so much. It was very helpful to me.
Sounds like an awesome video, could help a lot of people probably. Please please, can you actually use your words to describe the parts of the ear and face etc. because as a blind person, I don’t know what part of the ear, body you are pointing or gesturing at in the visual spectrum, I know us blind folks are the last minority, but please, practice thinking outside of the visual spectrum! Thank you and I look forward to an update of this video…
I’m 83 yrs and have never heard of these things ever.
How exciting for many people.
Is everyone like him and can immediately notice differences? I might notice one saliva change in the entire practice and perhaps that was just random.
No, I noticed no difference in saliva at all. It's the first time I've ever tried it though, so perhaps that comes with practice!
I think for me, it took a while to learn how the differences feel to me. recognizing the feelings took time. Also, I think we get better at doing it for our self once we’ve done it enough. We know which direction and in how much intensity. Don’t give it up, and don’t think you’re going to understand it the first day. All I knew was that when I did my first Vegas nerve exercise, but I felt as relieved as when noticing that something that had startled me was safe. Just feeling that relief in my chest cavity kept me going.
This is the best Vagus Nerve boost video I have seen…and I have done a lot of research. This stuff works for me. I have Gastroparesis and intestinal/colon paralysis from Vagus Nerve problems, secondary to MS. Since my entire GI tract is stopped, only a PICC line could bring nutrition and it blocked with blood clots in 6 days. I was put on palliative care. I am using your tools. From the start I got immediate results. I am a classically trained mezzo soprano also, and the singing part of the Vagus Nerve reset resonates with me. Thank you.
So are you saying these techniques has helped your gastroparesis a lot? Can you elaborate?
What helped me the most was going to a trained, certified therapeutic massage therapist who knew reflexology. She uses reflexology to stimulate the Vagus Nerve using the points on the feet. I am 70% improved. I also use the tools on the video attached to these comments.
How do we WAKE UP OUR VAGUS NERVE FUNCTIONS TO TAKE ACTIONS ( GET INTO ACTIONS TO GET JOBS WORKED OUT. CHORES, COOKING, CLEANING, LAUNDRY STRENGTH ENERGY STAMINA IS NEEDED. DEPRESSION IS HOLDING THIS PERSON BACK. PERK UP??? STOP BEING TOO CALM. OK???
No it doesn't work like that. Listen to the Polyvagal Theory
that was great info ..THANK YOU
This is just magical, thank you so much for sharing!
