The Vagus Nerve: the key to mind-body equilibrium

​​

​​​​“The vagus nerve is the conductor of the human body symphony orchestra.” ― Navaz Habib

​

The vagus nerve is your secret weapon to self-regulate and transform your health,  the way you feel about yourself,  and how you relate to your environment.

  

This 6-week yoga series offers an in-depth journey to understand and practice simple tools to bring rapid and positive change to the physical body, mind and overall sense of well being.  The vagus nerve is the longest nerve in the body and plays a vital role in regulating various bodily functions, including heart rate, digestion, and immune response, as well as decreased inflammation, and reduced stress and anxiety.

 

Practice and learn specific breathing patterns, postures, meditation and sound designed to tone the vagus nerve that you can also integrate into your daily life. These simple tools will support and influence positive effects to your physical health and mental wellness.

​

Each class offers a combination of Kundalini yoga postures, pranayama, meditation and a deep relaxation sound bath with a 28" symphonic gong.

​​

Register early as space is limited to 10 spots. Studio address will be given upon registration.

 

Please bring a leak-proof water bottle, yoga mat/natural fiber mat, meditation cushion (optional) and something to keep you warm during relaxation.

Meditation and Sound Bath

​

"In the midst of movement and chaos, keep stillness inside of you.” ―  Deepak Chopra

​

This 45-minute meditation and relaxation class provides a safe and calm space to unwind from the week. 

​

Each practice begins with focused breath-work and meditation to quiet the mind and release tension and stress, followed by a deep relaxation layout to the sound of a 28" symphonic gong, chimes and/or bowls. Deeply relaxing helps to integrate the effects of the meditation, and sound baths help to balance the nervous and endocrine system, calm the mind and promote restful sleep. Read more on benefits.

​

In Kundalini Yoga we harness the mental, physical, and nervous energies of the body and put them under the domain of the will, which is the instrument of the soul. Combining breath, mudra, eye-focus, mantra, body locks, and postures, we balance the endocrine system, strengthen the nervous system, expand lung capacity, and purify the blood.
