📸 The #2 Question: "Got Any Pictures of How to Use This Thing?" (Yes! Here is the Visual Guide + The Golden Rules)
You got your device (hopefully from the pinned post above! 👆), and now you're staring at it thinking, "Okay... but where does this thing actually go on my neck?" It is the second most common question I get, and the answer is critical. Slapping the ultrasound on the wrong spot is like trying to charge your phone with the wrong cable—it just won't work, and you might get a weird error message (dizziness, tingling, etc.). I have built a whole module dedicated to this, complete with diagrams and a video guide. It covers the exact anatomy, the "mirror trick," and how to avoid overstimulation. 👉 [CLICK HERE FOR MODULE 3: Ultrasound Setup & Neck Placement] The "Cheat Sheet" Before You Click: Since you are here asking for pictures, here is a quick preview of what is waiting for you inside that module so you can get it right the first time: 1. The Setup (Don't Skip This!) - Gel is Boss: Do not turn the device on without it. It is not lotion; it is the conductor. - Warm it Up: Cold gel is a shock to the system. Warm the bottle in your hands first for a spa-like vibe. 2. The "Sweet Spot" Placement - The Location: It is on the left side of your neck (you can do the right side ONLY when you're absolutely sure you can find the left side Vagus Nerve). - The Landmarks: You are aiming for the point between the crease behind your jawline, the bottom of your earlobe, and the big neck muscle (sternocleidomastoid). - The Mirror Trick: Use a mirror to watch the placement. If you feel a tingle or your voice wobbles, you are hitting a nerve—move slightly inward (towards your windpipe). 3. The 5-Minute Goldilocks Rule - Minute 0-1: Level 1 (Gentle introduction) - Minute 2-3: Level 2-3 (Building warmth) - Minute 4-5: Level 4 (The "Ahhh" zone) - Red Flag: Nausea or headache? Stop immediately and sip cold water. Bonus: When to Do It (Module 4 Sneak Peek) Timing matters! Most people love this before bed for deep sleep, but you can also do a low-intensity session in the morning for "alert calmness" without the jitters.

Hi Sterling. I’m using this technique on both sides since my heart attack. Where can I find the video of the breath work and ultrasound combo. 30 breaths, hold, squeeze. Is it still available? TY

Broken Heart? Your Vagus Nerve May Be The Culprit
Heartbreak literally broken? Maybe your vagus nerve is ghosting you. Scientists snipped cardiac nerves in mice, mimicking a bad breakup. Their hearts aged faster! Fibrosis spiked, ejection fraction tanked. Ouch. Think clogged highways and grumpy heart cells. The vagus nerve, it seems, whispers sweet nothings (acetylcholine!) that chill out angry inflammatory molecules. No vagus? Inflammation party! But here's the plot twist: electrical zaps jumpstarted those nerves. Fibrosis? Reversed! Like a love song rewinding time. So, boost that vagal tone! Meditate, breathe deep, maybe sing to your heart. A happy vagus = a youthful ticker. Who knew?

TY Sterling! It could have been worse. 70% blockage in one artery. Left side. The good news is I’m still above ground and I Will be on it tonight. 🙏🥰
Is Your Ultrasound Gel Blocking The Benefits? Too Much or Too Little Might Need a Rethink
Ever feel like your VNS isn't *quite* hitting the spot? It might be your ultrasound gel! Seriously. Turns out, that goo is more important than you think. Cheap stuff can block up to 30% of the good vibes headed for your vagus nerve. Ouch! Think of it like trying to whisper sweet nothings through a pillow. The message gets muffled. So, ditch the generic gel? Not so fast. I'm all about DIY, and guess what? You can make a *better* gel at home. Aloe, herbs... It's like a spa day for your vagus nerve. Why bother? Better acoustic transmittance = deeper relaxation. Plus, you control the ingredients. Who knew homemade goo could be a life hack? BUT - Be Careful - adding too much "stuff" can actually both degrade Ultrasound waves & may harm your transducer - see the full discussion in the Vagus Skool here: https://www.skool.com/vagus/super-conductive-homemade-ultrasound-gel

Oh, this is good! I was using straight aloe Vera gel. TY for the recipe. 🥰
Right Vagus Nerve: Heart's Secret To Eternal Youth Discovered!
I think I'm going to start encouraging Right Vagus Nerve Stimulation with Ultrasound from now on actually - the longevity benefits could be *massive* ! Heart's secret to eternal youth? It's on the right side. Not your romantic side, but your right vagus nerve. Turns out, this nerve whispers sweet nothings to your heart cells, keeping them young and vibrant. Sever that connection? Cue the cardiac aging process, with dysfunctional mitochondria. Think of it as forgetting to water your houseplants, but for your heart. The left vagus nerve? A mere acquaintance, barely making a difference. But the right one? It's the VIP, maintaining mitochondrial dynamics and cellular housekeeping. Stimulate it, and watch those grumpy old heart cells perk up! So, next time you're feeling philosophical, thank your right vagus nerve for keeping the beat going. https://www.news-medical.net/news/20251226/Vagus-nerve-may-hold-the-key-to-a-younger-and-healthier-heart.aspx Just look at this summary of the research ! My goodness... New research pinpoints its critical role in preserving cardiomyocyte health. Selective right vagal denervation in mice accelerates cardiac aging. This induces disrupted proteostasis and autophagy. Mitochondrial dysfunction, elevated senescence markers, and cardiac dysfunction followed. These effects are independent of systemic factors. The mechanism involves cholinergic signaling via α7nAChR, vital for mitochondrial dynamics and autophagy. Optogenetic right vagal stimulation reverses these markers in aged mice. This highlights therapeutic potential against cardiac aging.

Liver Stimulation Module RELEASED – This one is gonna be YUUGE! 🚀🔥
This one has been in the works for weeks, and it’s finally here. Liver stimulation is the next big frontier in non-invasive health upgrades, and I’m giving you the whole playbook inside this new module. Why should you care? Your liver is your body’s energy factory, detox center, and metabolic command hub. When it’s happy, your whole system runs better. When it’s sluggish or inflamed, everything suffers. Here’s what you’ll learn inside: • How to use gentle ultrasound to help your liver regenerate 🧬 • The “fibrosis fighter” effect – combat scar tissue without drugs or surgery 💥 • How to boost energy, improve blood sugar, and balance your cholesterol ⚡ • Exact placement and settings for real results 🎯 • Pro tips to speed up benefits and keep them going 🚀 Step-by-step liver stimulation guide: 1. Find your liver window: 2. Target the porta hepatis about 2–4 cm below the right rib cage, near the middle. Use imaging if possible and avoid major blood vessels. 3. Choose your mode: 4. Go slow and steady: Move the transducer slowly, angle toward the liver core, and imagine turning down inflammation while boosting repair. 5. Frequency: 3–5 sessions per week works well. Pro tips for faster wins: • Be consistent – daily or every other day works better than random sessions. • Try mornings before breakfast for extra glucose regulation. • Drink water with lemon to help detox. • Track your ALT/AST and notice changes in energy, digestion, and focus. Safety notes: • Skip high-intensity machines meant for destroying tissue – we want gentle stimulation, not damage. • Work around ribs to avoid reflection. • If you have active liver disease, implants, or serious diabetes complications, talk to your doctor first. What you might notice: • More energy and less fatigue 😴➡️⚡ • Reduced bloating and better digestion 🤰 • Clearer thinking thanks to the liver-brain axis 🧠 • Improved lab markers like blood sugar and liver enzymes 📊 Want the full module with all the details and FAQ?
