Harnessing the vagus nerve to "turn on your off switch" with Jill Miller

What is the vagus nerve? More importantly, why should we, as yogis, care? Jill Miller comes on the podcast this week to help us understand how we can tap into the vagus and stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system, bringing about the relaxation response. Jill shares her recipe -- "the 5 Ps,"-- for stimulating the vagus so that you can incorporate them into your own practice and teaching.Find shownotes with links to helpful articles and videos about the vagus: https://www.jasonyoga.com/podcast/episode271 Hosted on Acast.
