Background About ME! And How I Got Into All This "Vagus" Stuff

Hi !!!

I'm Sterling, and I know more than a few things about the Vagus Nerve, and especially how to stimulate it - both with breathing, drugs, nutrition, neck exercises, electricity, and Ultrasound.

Back in 2018 I started a Facebook group, and by 2019 it had ballooned into 5000 members! A totally free to join group, and I posted in there every. single. day.

But why?

Because I was incredibly passionate about talking about and learning and sharing knowledge related to the Vagus Nerve.

It all started in 2017, when I was learning about HRV (Heart Rate Variability) - and doing Wim Hof breathing, and as usual, developing Ultrasound technology (my former startup is called Berkeley Ultrasound, Inc. we are a venture capital funded group, look me up!)

So I thought, "What if I placed the Ultrasound on my Vagus Nerve, while doing Wim Hof Breathing, and was tracking my HRV with my chest worn sensor... could I make my HRV go up higher than usual ?"

Naturally, I thought it wouldn't be hard to test, so I placed my nearby Ultrasound handheld device (A US-1000 3rd Edition Ultrasound) on the highest setting (Red) on the left side of my neck, and started the typical Wim Hof 30 breaths thing.

By the third round of breathing, I started to feel buzzy and tingly all over my entire body, this was different than usual... hmm, but I did the last inhale, hold, and SQUEEZE!!!

And poof!

I was no longer looking at the ceiling of my office (I was just laying on the carpet with a pillow looking up) but I saw *All White Around Me*...

Then before I could even acknowledge what this white room was exactly - WHOOSH!

Again I was no longer looking at a white room, but a crystal clear picture of New York Central Park, broad day, summertime, people walking around, I could hear the taxis in the distance, I could hear multiple simultaneous conversations happening around me... this just lasted for multiple minutes, it was very normal to be looking out of someone else eyes in New York Central Park for some reason.

I guess I had just completely forgotten that my physical body was just in my home outside of Seattle Washington! All the way across the country!! WTH!!???

That's when I had this whoosh of my vision, and suddenly I blink and I can now see my ceiling again, it takes me a moment, I realize I don't know where I am now... is this it?

Oh... I'm back in my office, laying down on my carpet, I have this small white plastic wand in my hand that has slid down to my sides...

Oh yes, I was just doing Wim Hof breathing and Ultrasound.. WHAT WAS THAT?!

I came to in about 20 seconds, but I was just flabberghasted as to what the heck happened.

It was that day, that my 7 years long journey with the Vagus Nerve and Ultrasound would commence.

And it has been quite an extraordinary journey, taking me all over the world (China) and back, to continue to work, and learn, and share, that there is something far deeper about the Vagus Nerve than people seem to realize...

It's something very... strange.

And I've been able to work 1-1 with so many amazing people, sharing the healing power of their Vagus Nerve with them, helping them awaken something within, unleashing their inner greatness, that we somehow have been tricked into forgetting...

And that brings us here, to the Vagus Skool.

This acts as a sort of Time Capsule of all that I have learned in my capacity as a health coach, working with the Vagus Nerve, and Stimulating the Vagus Nerve in many different ways, especially with Vagus Nerve Stimulation, such as with Ultra Breath, an incredible practice that all of you are going to be able to work your way up to through this group.

I hope that you, wherever you may be, finds something of value here, and you feel compelled to share it with another.

VagusSkool.com is the place to send people, I will continue adding resources here as they are needed.

I most hope that you can connect with other like-minded people, who are cool, and chill, and friendly, and interesting in what the Vagus Nerve can offer, and what it can do.

Vagus Skool is primarily here to act as a potential stepping stone for those who might be having a "blip" in their health, and want an unbiased account of what they can realistically accomplish with even minimal resources, and minimal energy to even do a few actions in a day.

Please be good to each other, and check out the Classroom, it's full of some incredible lessons and action plans for anyone looking to touch their Vagus Nerve, just a little bit.

More to come!
