The vagus nerve is the main parasympathetic nerve to the heart, providing rest and digest counterbalance to sympathetic fight or flight signals. Vagal stimulation slows heart rate, reduces contractile force, and promotes coronary artery dilation. The right vagus nerve has denser cardiac projections than the left, explaining avoidance of right-sided stimulation in VNS to prevent bradycardia or transient asystole. Through cardiac branches, the vagus nerve influences heart rate by slowing the sinoatrial node, rhythm by modulating atrioventricular node conduction, contractility by reducing force during rest, coronary blood flow by dilating arteries, baroreceptor sensitivity for blood pressure responses to position changes, and heart rate variability. Heart rate variability (HRV) measures variation in time between consecutive heartbeats. Higher HRV reflects dynamic sympathetic-parasympathetic interplay, stronger vagal tone, better autonomic balance, improved cardiovascular health, lower stress, and reduced mortality risk. Low HRV indicates vagal withdrawal and sympathetic dominance, linked to increased risk of coronary artery disease, heart attacks, sudden cardiac death, heart failure progression, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, all-cause mortality, chronic stress, burnout, anxiety, depression, poor physical fitness, inflammation, aging, and reduced longevity. Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) targets cardiovascular conditions. In chronic heart failure, VNS restores autonomic balance, potentially improving cardiac function, exercise tolerance, and quality of life; early trials show promise as adjunctive therapy. For arrhythmia management, VNS modulates electrical conduction, relevant for atrial fibrillation and supraventricular arrhythmias, potentially reducing episodes or enhancing treatment outcomes. In hypertension, VNS enhances baroreflex sensitivity for blood pressure regulation during postural changes and stress, offering benefits for resistant cases. Post-myocardial infarction, VNS addresses persistent autonomic dysfunction to improve long-term outcomes and prevent recurrence. In coronary artery disease, vagal stimulation promotes vasodilation, improves endothelial function, and may reduce atherosclerotic progression.

Here's a link to the Calendar in the Vagus Skool indicating the details of the event - it will display the proper time based on *YOUR* timezone. https://www.skool.com/vagus/calendar?eid=b6a5dae2fd724fb3925157724763cdcc Additionally, if you go to UltraSkool.com/join you will see a countdown timer - and if you go there tomorrow, when the countdown timer hits 00:00:00 you will be redirected to the Zoom room automatically. You can also join 30 minutes early - as I will have the room setup and we will be co-watching videos (optional but fun!) Can't wait to see so many new fresh faces - we will be covering Cerebral Ultrasound, Vagus Nerve Ultrasound, and touch on the Spleen as well. Come with questions (???) and I will be dedicating some time near the 90 minute mark to take a barrage of questions. It's going to be very fun, and we are going to do the Ultra Breath protocol - this is breathing + Ultrasound on the Vagus Nerve (prepare to have you Parasympathetic system fully activated within a 10 minute window - it's INSANE ! (and this practice is why I got into the Vagus Nerve at all in the first place.) See you all soon !!!

Has anyone found that grounding mats are beneficial

Hey there, everyone! Welcome to the July Ultrasound Zoom Meetup. We’re thrilled to have you here for this exciting event. Just to remind you, it’s Saturday, July 12th, from 11 am to 1 pm Los Angeles time. Make sure to join us at UltraSkool.com/join In this meetup, we’ll be diving into the fascinating world of Ultrasound Stimulation. Specifically, we’ll be focusing on stimulating the Vagus Nerve and the Cerebral Regions of the Brain. It’s going to be a hands-on experience where we all learn and perform these techniques together. Additionally, we’ll be covering Ultrasound stimulation of the Insular Cortex. And of course, we’ll have a dedicated Q&A session to address all your questions. We know you have them, and we’re here to provide the answers you need to efficiently implement this groundbreaking technology into your self-enhancement routine. So, bring your favorite VNS tools, come ready to learn, ask questions, and most importantly, have fun! This is a community event, and we’re all here to support each other on this journey. We can’t wait to see you there. Let’s make this July 2025 an Excellent Adventure together. See you soon! *** Also - Comment Below if You're Going to Be Able To Make it, and Like At Least One Other Persons Comment so they too can LEVEL UP ! ***

What a huge difference this has made. I started with my armpits and have moved to my neck. After a goods nights rest the difference in puffiness is very noticeable! Drop a like and comment below your experience with using ultrasound on lymph 😊
