‘Vagus Nerve Breathing’ & ‘The Calm Place’ to Relax the Nervous System

When you do these exercises, they will help to calm your nervous system by activating the Amygdala (the Fight/Flight/Freeze/Fawn center of the brain) and help you feel more grounded in God.

Doing these makes a huge difference in the way your nervous system functions and these exercises are based on Polyvagal Theory and EMDR, which are two modalities that allow us to heal from trauma and pain.

You can do this daily and you can also use it when you feel ‘activated; by a trigger or something outside of you that feels threatening or unsafe.

We will also do these exercises fairly often on our ‘Inner Healing & Self Leadership’ calls, where you learn how to heal within by maturing your emotions and being able to lead from a place of your oneness with the Holy Spirit. As 1 Corinthians 6:17 says, “The one who joins himself to the Lord is one spirit with Him.”

Enjoy these exercises, and practice them often. The audio and video versions are a bit different so see which one works best for you 🙂
