I am very tense after suffering a trauma. Before this exercise I could move my head to the left just a little but after this exercise I felt I was able to move it properly also to the left. My whole body relaxed and as I was so relaxed I also decided to go early to bed and I had a really good sleep ! What I don´t understand is HOW such a simple exercise can have such a strong effect ??
I tried this and I yawned instantly. But what I need to ask is - I was looking with both eyes to 3 o'clock, i.e. to the right and just that. Is that correct? Looking to the left would be 9 o' clock. Thx for explaining.
Thank you so much. I have literally tears in my eyes. I haven't been able to relax and calm down in forever. Meditation, yoga, relaxing music, nothing helped. This worked instantly. Finally I am able to let go. Thank you so much.
Hi. I'm not sure why RUclips's algorithm suggested this video for me. It's not related to anything else I've looked up or watched. However, I happened to have had severe experiences with my vagus nerve. One so severe I blacked out at work after hitting my ankle bone. Later, I was told I turned gray and they couldn't get a pulse on me. I have a lot of suppressed stress due to family issues, marriage and trying to live above it all. My pain tolerance is very high and I believe it does more harm than good sometimes. No medical professional has ever informed me of any of this. Actually, I had no idea it was tied to stress. Thank you.
yes the medical profession don't even get an hour in their 7+ year education to learn about life trauma (rather than acute obvious trauma). Maybe listen to Gabor Mate and Peter Levine among others to understand how you ended up there. Maybe your personality leads you to more stress than needed as well. Good luck.

You are so right!! I always fight doing the cleansing breathing...but when I make myself do it, without fail, by the third breath I am yawning and relaxing..it works every time to...THIS vagus nerve reset worked instantly for me...as soon as I looked at 3:00 I was yawing...I repeated it two more times and got the same result every time. Love this simple exercise.
I have tears rolling out of my eyes as I destress.I immediately yawned when I moved my eyes to the right, more so than left. Thanks so much for this exercise.
Onde day at work, I was sitting at my desk and started a conversation with a fellow coworker. Usually I feel extreme anxiety when socialising at a professional level. But this particular time, I crossed my hands behind my head for whatever reason. I noticed that all the anxiety instantly vanished and I started feeling a lot more relaxed, to the point where I felt super confident to have any conversation at all wit anybody. And that lasted for a couple of hours. This is the first time I see someone talk about this! Thank you so much for bringing a professional approach to this situation. Greetings from Brazil
I have been suffering from insomnia for two months and tried lots of different things with varying degrees of limited success. Tried this last night and it really helped a lot! Thank you
I can say that this exercise changed my life. I feel my entire body relax instantly when I do it, all the tension I've been holding disappears. And it's not just superficial relaxation, I can feel my body "breathe out" and say "ok, time to chill". Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.
I don't understand at all what it means to move your eyes to clock 3? Means just to move your eyes to left or right??? Or we may try to look with one eye up to 12 and one eye right to 3, or what??? How to do this exercise correctly???
@@gyongyipedersen9264 if you close your eyes, and look directly up, that's *12 o'clock* If you look all the way to the right-center that's *3 o'clock* 6 o'clock is when you look all the way down, and 9 o'clock all the way to the left
@@raiswarnim9431 took me a few mins first time. I think because i had a lot of stress stored, also i felt really weird in my stomache like a nervous feeling but felt way better after!

Wow! That worked immediately for me. I kept looking at 3 o'clock, and I yawned about eight times and my whole body relaxed. Thank you! I'm going to do this every day.
I suffered a concussion a few years ago and it feels like my body is in distress. This is the first time in a while I felt calm. It was short lived, but this will be put into practice throughout my day.

@@nervoussystemninja Hello renee, I just discover your channel. Please what you recommend for tension headache and stiff musles neck and shoulder Tks a lot
Just wow . Within 2 seconds i was yawning & then the tears began ro flow . Where had this been all my life . Thank you for sharing your precious insights ❤ Keep Golden ❤
I needed this in THEE WORST WAY!! I’ve been so angry and upset with my family today and cleaning like a Maniac for hours now and just decided to take a break and this came up in my feed! Ty!!!!!!!♥️
This is fabulous. I was sitting up in bed and put my hands behind my head, moved my eyes as directed and within 10 seconds I was taking deep sighing breaths and felt way better. Thanks, I can see myself doing this lots.
I've actually been feeling with pain in my left lower back area. someone mentioned that its trapped energy/Stress within that area. After watching this video and doing the technique I felt a visible change and for the first night in MONTHS was able to lay on my back. Didn't realize how stressed/ how much my body was holding in. THANK YOU !
This is what I've been experiencing for years. I've always been worried it's something serious but I'm hoping it's fixable. I haven't tried this technique yet but I'm hoping it works 🙌
Lower back problems often benefit from reducing caffiene drinks or alcohol which are all dehydrating. Replace with good clean natural water. Approx a small glass every waking hour.
I have been going to doctor's saying about pain in left lower back for ages they never give an answer. At a crisis point of severe pain at the moment. I know stress affects me very badly so grateful for any help!
I haven’t yawned in like 3 months which is crazy. I did this and started and started yawning like crazy! Wow! I do feel more drowsy and tired now. During the 3 past 3 months too, I’ve been having severe insomnia. Not sure if this is the reason why, but again wow I’m super amazed!!
Holy crap, I can't believe this works so well. Upon my eyes hitting 3 o'clock, I *instantly* felt a strong WAVE of relaxation emanate from my brain, down my spine, and into my legs. Amazing. Thank you!
I just did it while sitting in my office chair listening. Quite amazing I did it both ways right/left. I focused really hard at 3 o'clock and it feels great like some kind of reset. Thank you very much I will certainly share this.
Anything I did in my childhood and my family said for I was weird, and I stipped doing them, I am discovering as an adult that they are really important excercises, I have redicovered them through a Somatic Experiencing course. And I can say this above is something I was doing as a child because made me feel good, however I wasn't doing it correctly. This is confirming to me that I am a sensitive person who as a child explored many ways that helped me keeping a good mental health.
Valentina S... this is so beautiful to read. Absolutely - the Indwelling Wisdom of your body has always been there - it is with *all* of us. I honor and acknowledge you for listening, way to go!
Thank you sooooo much Renee for your video 😀 I have been having panic attacks for years and upon waking up this morning I felt one was coming. My osteopath mentioned to me that it had to do with my vagus nerve. So when I felt the panic attack coming I looked for a video on how to relax the vagus nerve and found your video. To my surprise it worked!!! Your exercise completely aborted the panic attack!! I’m so thankful to you because I have been suffering for more than 20 years. THANK YOU!!!! 🙏🙏🙏
A G... your comment moved me to tears, in a good way. I am so thankful that you tried it and took the time to let me know... blessings to you and your journey - please stay in touch!! amazing.
I’m so glad to hear that a panic attack was averted. I suffer with them as well and have recently discovered that the vertebrae in my neck are out of sorts causing pressure on my brain stem, arteries, cerebral spinal fluid flow and vagus nerve. Consider finding an orthospinology.com chiro in your area. The relief from so many symptoms is quite remarkable
I Suffer From Crippling Tinnitus Since Early 2021 December Morning . Triggered From Rosuvastatin 20mg ,Been Taking For 11 Weeks , I Stopped Taking The Posion. Your Exercise Works ! Thank You !
You bet, Victoria! The sky (or our creativity, perhaps) is the limit with ways this can be applied... one of my more advanced favorites is to use it while thinking of something that can evoke a stress response, and the body positioning of this exercise can reduce how that stress lives in our body. Good stuff! Would love to hear from you how you applied it. Best wishes, and feel free to reach out with more insights or questions :)
Thank you so much for this! I get heart palpitations and anxiety in the middle of the night...I do this and calm down immediately and drift back to sleep. It even works (for me, anyway) with my eyes closed!
J Anderson... that is *AWESOME*. I am so pumped to hear about your strategic application of this exercise. Brilliant, my friend, absolutely brilliant :)
Wow. This just made me feel a zillion times better…if you’ve been struggling with anxiety/PTSD/feeling unsafe in your body, please do this!!! Worked shockingly well. This is not a drill.
Thank you, Andrea Colamartini! I appreciate you taking the time to write and watch... Keep going and be sure to let me know if you have any specific requests :)
Thank you so much, had so much neck and back pain and felt like everything in my body was tearing apart sometimes, 5 minutes later and I feel so loose and comfortable, its like I'm brand new!!
This is amazing I can’t believe this worked.. I’ve been dealing with so much stress and anxiety lately I needed something to feel like myself again. Thank you!
OMG, the tip about doing this IN the stressful situation is pure gold. £ years ago I got into a big financial difficulty. The correspondences were always via email. The issue took several months to resolves, so that every time I went to open my emails I was overwhelmed by fear and a sense of "dread". 3 years later and the body still responds this way. I did what you suggested in the process of opening my emails. Wow, lots of crying and releasing. I also did the finger in the ear canal and gently massaging one too, and got even more releasing and crying. Thank you so much again DR Renee.
My mom has anxiety and we're both into natural means to heal our bodies and minds and to "hack" our nervous systems. I stumbled upon your channel and this video after learning more about the vagus nerve and, in addition to discovering this awesome reset, I instantly found you to be delightful 😁. You've got a new subscriber and thank-you so much for your awesome channel!
Walter Jackson... thank you for your words. I appreciate them (and you!) very much and am noticing a lovely warm smile as a result. Best wishes and benevolence to you! :)
Wow! I've done a lot of quick relaxation techniques--tapping, deliberate yawning, three breaths, etc.--this is the fastest, best one yet!!! I yawned and swallowed and sighed in the first few seconds.
I had almost one month with stress related palpitations. Earthing did help, but this exercise help a lot. I found your video yesterday, I slept great and today no palpitations. Thank you very much! Greetings from Baja, México.
Thank you! The past two months I have had to rely on RUclips doctors because I cannot get to see a doctor anywhere for 3 to 6 months, and I’m in a large city. I’m not sure what’s going on in this club, but people like you are helping a lot of us that are suffering. Thank you again! ❤

I have been working on the parasympathetic response for a month now but this works straight away. Vegus nerve stimulation works, I have woken up with anxiety every morning the last 4 months. I still wake with it but I do this exercise, vegus ear massage and deep belly breathing (somatic experience) and the anxiety just disappears. It’s like magic. Thanks for sharing this amazing technique.
I did this exercise one time and tension in my neck that had been there for months simply drained out. I just couldn’t believe it. All forms of massage just made the problem work and i was experiencing a lot of headaches. Truly impressive. Thanks for sharing.
Mary W..... I am utterly pleased to read this. I acknowledge you for taking the time and having the curiosity to explore this.... your body's abilities ARE truly impressive and I am just delighted to hear you be able to tap into them :) Is there anything else I can post or share more about that would be helpful for you?
Wow, this “exercise” !! In few seconds My eyes were blinking unnaturally and my my teeth were clicking few times, so I rather stop after 10 seconds or so and then repeated 10-15 seconds again. Now after so much tears out of my eyes I have back my !!inner smile!! and feeling myself so lightly. Thank you very much for sharing this. I wish you had great days ❤😊
Thank you thank you thank you... I have been stressed out for 3 days for no reason my heart's been raising everything's on the edge... I've had headaches... I just did this and within seconds my heart went down and my ancient death left... Peace be with you God bless you and this method...
Wow this worked for me right away, twice. As soon as I turned my eyes I yawned almost immediately! My body approves! Thank you so much, I’ll be sharing with my clients !
Thanks a lot Renee- I first watched this about 2 weeks ago and I have been doing it several times a day since then and I always get results sometimes in 10 seconds or in a minute or longest a few minutes, however I always feel better after doing it. I had previously never heard of it.
@@nervoussystemninja Hi Renee. I do your Vagus Nerve Reset technique a few times a day and it only takes 1 or 2 minutes each time and feel much better.
Thank you so much! I just did this while sitting and within 10 sec I yawned! Also I am trying to quit smoking and it is making me very stressed, so I will try this when I am having a difficult moment 🥰
Anna Berghammer... right!?! His work has been so helpful - thanks for taking the time to comment. If I could redo that video, I would have remembered to give him spoken credit, instead of only in the written description. Blessings and Best to you.
@@nervoussystemninja I usually do deep belly breathing exercises while in this same prone position, and it helps me fall asleep as well. I wonder if this activates the vagus nerve too! I will try this exercise without the belly breathing and see what happens, I wonder if it would be a suitable variation to still do the eye movement AND the belly breathing?
I started doing wim hoff method and I realized if I laughed and smiled from the stomach ( making these push movements like when you laugh) when I am holding breath during wim hoff breathing it relaxes my breathing muscles. It feels like a vagus nerve reset. I can feel the tension being released .
Oh wow, feels like my body has had a mini workout, and I never workout. I liken this to a craniosacral therapy session, my body did a myriad of things all by itself, resulting in my chronic back pain going, for now. Excellent. Thank you.
Louise Voraujan.. that's beautiful! Thanks for sharing, it's so beautiful to see confirmation - that healing lies within, and this exercise creates a lovely environment to enhance the possibility and contribution to a healing atmosphere. Thanks for writing, and best wishes to you! :) Renee
Tried it had a yawn . This is new to me. Hopfully this helps relax my frazzled nerves. Will have to research this, I like to understand the whys & how's 🤔
I wish I found this video three years ago. Can’t stop yawning. Feel so relaxed. I’ll use this every day. Thank you thank you thank you for making this.
I was already doing this, with my hands interlocked behind my head, involuntarily for years. I didn’t know anything about the vagus nerve, it just felt “good”, in a subconscious way. Thanks for the video.
Thank you for watching! We have found that listening to our body's intuition and following it is a crucial part of feeling grounded. Your body already knew what it needed.
@@greentreemindllc1086 well we’re taught from birth that only doctors understand the body and mind (they don’t), and only pills and/or surgery can fix anything. Very profitable business. Test test test. Back in reality, the body has an incredible ability to heal itself. I believe that now.
Bless you Renee! This one works so much better to relax me than all the exercises that focus on breathing. Focusing on breathing is actually very stress-inducing when recovering from coronavirus and the lungs still are not at 100%.
That's absolutely wonderful to hear PC Henderson! I wish you the best of luck in your recovery journey from what must have been a very stressful experience. 🙏🏼🌳
Honestly it has always made me feel stressed trying to focus on breathing, or picturing something in my mind. It actually gives me performance anxiety! This is much better.
"It is that simple; it's not always that easy." Such a big Truth, Dr. Renée! Your phrase echoes words frequently said by Esalen co-founder Dick Price and by his widow Christine Stewart Price, in teaching Gestalt Awareness Practice. May all beings be free from suffering. Your work continues the tradition of bodhisattvas.
At the beginning, I was in a collapsed state and this exercise took nearly two minutes to stimulate a yawn. Now, however, after months of nervous system work, after 3-5 seconds I'm yawning!
I have been struggling with many health issues that have affected the vagus nerve. I have been taking Parasym Plus and it does help, but this is amazing! It took me almost 10 min at the 3 o'clock position and 5-6 min at the 9 o'clock position. I have HPA Axis Dysfunction as well, so my body has been severely reactive. I do meditation and breathwork, but this has been more calming than most of the other exercises I've tried. I have been yawning nonstop since doing this. So grateful for finding your video. I have been trying to repair the vagus nerve and parasympathetic nervous system for almost a year. I am going to purchase Accessing the Healing Power of the Vagus Nerve.
Sarah Abts... this is beautiful to read, lovely and wonderful. I am delighted to hear about your journey and look forward to hearing what else you learn from Stanley's wonderful book! Best wishes to you, Renee :)
I have suffered from high to severe somatic anxiety symptoms since burn out, coupled with CFS. A range of medication takes the edge off the problem but often doesn't completely touch it. Thus any slight trigger would make life uncomfortable. I don't ever say things like this. So this is more than meant. Your publicising this has changed my quality of life significantly. It may not work for everyone. But this - and your slow blinking technique - have both taken the constant nerves/butterflies away from me. They were felt in every breathe. I've tried all sort of other vagal nerve stimuli. Breathing exercises didn't quite hit it. Tapping. Meditation. None worked. The closest I came is with a device that sends sonic sound vibrations through the chest cavity to activate it in the same way that chanting or humming might. That helped but still didn't quite provide such easy and instant help. The two exercises I have tried that you advertised seem to have. Astounding. Thank you. I've been doing all I can to help my body heal it's parasympathetic nervous system including fighting for access to a neurological team that specialise in the autonomic nervous system. I shall be sharing this with them and looking forwards to being able to relax more now. I've been enjoying yawning!!! I've not felt able to relax for more than a decade. I'm finding it works well with my eyes shut and also doing the 9PM position so that the muscle work is shared. ;)
Yeahhhh!! Now you're talking! I love this super sneaky strategic application to really take charge and handle with better control your very own nervous system. Way to go!
This made me yawn immediately..I repeated it two more times...made me yawn each time. I'm dealing with vestibular migraine, diagnosed after 2+ years of misdiagnoses. Also reading the book Heal Your Headache by Dr. David Buccholz ...doing the elimination diet to see if I have any food triggers. The book says that stress is a trigger, as is dehydration, the weather, not enough sleep, exercise either lack of or overdoing it. I was feeling really stressed b/4 my VM symptoms began, then I got a virus back in March 2020, and it's been miserable since. Stress certainly made my symptoms worse and moreso as time passed and I so no light at the end of the tunnel...I had to work at 'accepting' the symptoms which is hard to do but it does make a huge difference... So thankful for anything that helps. Vagus stimulation is in the list of things that does help VM. Thank you for showing this vagus nerve reset!
youtube put this in my feed. I do like knowing good stretches as I have ligaments that can get tight. I expected this to just be a stretch, but I followed along. eyes to 3 o'clock, okay. just after you said what to expect I felt a tingle in my nose before I couldn't control a yawn. It happened 3 more times than I really felt calm over me. Seeing I had coffee too late and I'm still energized that calmness took me over when it didn't have to.
Years ago I was experimenting with self-hypnosis. i put myself in a hypnotic state and told myself if I ever tapped the end of my nose with my fingers it would cause me to smile or laugh. I tried it and it seemed to work and then forgot about it. Some years later I tapped myself on my nose and it made me smile and I remembered. To be honest, I never think to tap my nose when I am in a stressful situation but any other time if I remember to do it it makes me smile and feel better. I enjoyed listening to your strategy and subscribed.
Robb's Homemade Life.... I appreciate you, your sharing, and enjoyed hearing about your perspective. We certainly have a lot of power within us that we can tap into.. perhaps with just a touch to the nose in the right way :) thank you.
I yawned within 10 seconds, and have since yawned about 5 times in as many minutes. I hope it helps when trying to fall asleep. Thanks for the tip. Can’t wait for bedtime to try it.
Thank you. I’m grieving the loss of my precious 18 year old daughter and I’m suffering. Every night I struggle to breathe and this instantly calmed me. Thank you from my broken heart. 💚

1. Lay down, settle and focus your attention and awareness to the presence of your hands behind the base of your head; where your head and your skull meets.
2. Move your eyes in the direction of 3 o’clock.
3. Maintain until you: Yawn, Swallow or Sigh. (Note: depending how stressed your nervous system is, this can take 10 seconds to 2 or 3 minutes).

If you look all the way to the right-center that's *3 o'clock*
6 o'clock is when you look all the way down, and 9 o'clock all the way to the left
I haven't stopped yawning since doing this a few moments ago. I feel so relaxed. Thank you for this wonderful technique
Same here!
This is my first time and i held five min each side but no yawns may be too much stress is stored how long it took you at first try did you yawn
@@raiswarnim9431 took me a few mins first time. I think because i had a lot of stress stored, also i felt really weird in my stomache like a nervous feeling but felt way better after!
Power!
Same! 😂
This actually worked, I was skeptical but found my self relaxed not even 30 seconds into the exercise. thank you!
Excellent!😀
Oh my, i swallowed then yawned 9 times in about 5 minutes.I can’t stop yawning.Thank you so very much. I’m looking forward to my pit tonight 🌟UPDATE i had the best sleep ever last night.Thanks a million 🌟
Your manner of speaking and the tone of your voice are also calming. Thank you.
We appreciate your support! Green Tree Mind is so grateful to have Dr. Renee as our CEO and Founder
Wow! I am a cptsd survivor. I have been working the last 40 years to calm my nervous system... you name it, I've done it. This is so effective. I'm so grateful to have found you. Thank you!
Emdr is good for trauma, it also works along these lines or rather copying the REM phase of sleep to a degree.
Profound! I yawned like 10 times in a row. Bizarre-but I’m very grateful!
I have tears streaming down my face like others mentioned. This must be a powerful release. Thank you!
Wonderful. I feel so relaxed afterwards. It helps me to do this at bedtime. I fall asleep quickly and make it through the night without waking up.
Good night
Wow! That worked immediately for me. I kept looking at 3 o'clock, and I yawned about eight times and my whole body relaxed. Thank you! I'm going to do this every day.
Oh my gosh.... I am literally non stop yawning! This is amazing. And I'm a massage therapist. Thank you!
I suffered a concussion a few years ago and it feels like my body is in distress. This is the first time in a while I felt calm. It was short lived, but this will be put into practice throughout my day.
This was fantastic. Thank you. I have allergies, anxiety, and I’m pretty sure my nervous system hasn’t had a break like this in years.
I M ... I could feel my system take a big breath in reading your words..... I am so glad for you to have a break.. it is a really good thing. thanks for taking the time to comment.

Hello renee, I just discover your channel. Please what you recommend for tension headache and stiff musles neck and shoulder
Tks a lot
@@leilaezz6030 I love magnesium
Just wow . Within 2 seconds i was yawning & then the tears began ro flow . Where had this been all my life . Thank you for sharing your precious insights ❤ Keep Golden ❤
I needed this in THEE WORST WAY!! I’ve been so angry and upset with my family today and cleaning like a Maniac for hours now and just decided to take a break and this came up in my feed! Ty!!!!!!!♥️
This is fabulous. I was sitting up in bed and put my hands behind my head, moved my eyes as directed and within 10 seconds I was taking deep sighing breaths and felt way better. Thanks, I can see myself doing this lots.
I've actually been feeling with pain in my left lower back area. someone mentioned that its trapped energy/Stress within that area. After watching this video and doing the technique I felt a visible change and for the first night in MONTHS was able to lay on my back. Didn't realize how stressed/ how much my body was holding in. THANK YOU !
This is what I've been experiencing for years. I've always been worried it's something serious but I'm hoping it's fixable. I haven't tried this technique yet but I'm hoping it works 🙌
Lower back problems often benefit from reducing caffiene drinks or alcohol which are all dehydrating. Replace with good clean natural water. Approx a small glass every waking hour.
I have been going to doctor's saying about pain in left lower back for ages they never give an answer. At a crisis point of severe pain at the moment. I know stress affects me very badly so grateful for any help!
I haven’t yawned in like 3 months which is crazy. I did this and started and started yawning like crazy! Wow! I do feel more drowsy and tired now. During the 3 past 3 months too, I’ve been having severe insomnia. Not sure if this is the reason why, but again wow I’m super amazed!!
Holy crap, I can't believe this works so well. Upon my eyes hitting 3 o'clock, I *instantly* felt a strong WAVE of relaxation emanate from my brain, down my spine, and into my legs. Amazing. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing! We love hearing our viewers success stories 💚
Wonderful!
I just did it while sitting in my office chair listening. Quite amazing I did it both ways right/left. I focused really hard at 3 o'clock and it feels great like some kind of reset. Thank you very much I will certainly share this.
Anything I did in my childhood and my family said for I was weird, and I stipped doing them, I am discovering as an adult that they are really important excercises, I have redicovered them through a Somatic Experiencing course. And I can say this above is something I was doing as a child because made me feel good, however I wasn't doing it correctly. This is confirming to me that I am a sensitive person who as a child explored many ways that helped me keeping a good mental health.
Valentina S... this is so beautiful to read. Absolutely - the Indwelling Wisdom of your body has always been there - it is with *all* of us. I honor and acknowledge you for listening, way to go!
I can't believe how effective this is. Thank you
Thomas Mulroney... that's *awesome* !! So glad to hear it! :-D
Thank you sooooo much Renee for your video 😀 I have been having panic attacks for years and upon waking up this morning I felt one was coming. My osteopath mentioned to me that it had to do with my vagus nerve. So when I felt the panic attack coming I looked for a video on how to relax the vagus nerve and found your video. To my surprise it worked!!! Your exercise completely aborted the panic attack!! I’m so thankful to you because I have been suffering for more than 20 years. THANK YOU!!!! 🙏🙏🙏
A G... your comment moved me to tears, in a good way. I am so thankful that you tried it and took the time to let me know... blessings to you and your journey - please stay in touch!! amazing.
I’m so glad to hear that a panic attack was averted. I suffer with them as well and have recently discovered that the vertebrae in my neck are out of sorts causing pressure on my brain stem, arteries, cerebral spinal fluid flow and vagus nerve. Consider finding an orthospinology.com chiro in your area. The relief from so many symptoms is quite remarkable
@@jbailey628 did you try the exercise in this video to help your situation?
How are your panic attacks now? Do you still have them?
I just want to compliment how lovely this lady looks, and how full she seems to the brim of a sort of joy or fun that is comforting to see.
I Suffer From Crippling Tinnitus Since Early 2021 December Morning . Triggered From Rosuvastatin 20mg ,Been Taking For 11 Weeks , I Stopped Taking The Posion. Your Exercise Works ! Thank You !
I love how you offered using it in varying situations - thank you for this helpful information!
You bet, Victoria! The sky (or our creativity, perhaps) is the limit with ways this can be applied... one of my more advanced favorites is to use it while thinking of something that can evoke a stress response, and the body positioning of this exercise can reduce how that stress lives in our body. Good stuff! Would love to hear from you how you applied it. Best wishes, and feel free to reach out with more insights or questions :)
this was instant relief..thank you...the head was bursting with pain and the entire body hurt....1 min...and the relief was miraculous! Thank you!
Amazing 😍🥰🥳
Thank you so much for this! I get heart palpitations and anxiety in the middle of the night...I do this and calm down immediately and drift back to sleep. It even works (for me, anyway) with my eyes closed!
J Anderson... that is *AWESOME*. I am so pumped to hear about your strategic application of this exercise. Brilliant, my friend, absolutely brilliant :)
I also get palpitations and I'm almost looking forward to the next event so I can try this! lol
@@wrylife57 what a cool new outlook to have towards heart palpitations! :-D
I'm looking for anything that helps with heart arrythmias as mine are proven to be directly related to digestive/vagus nerve issues..
@@looneytunes105 did you ever find anything?
Thank You! I cannot believe how easy and effective this is. I am dealing with complex grief and CPTSD issues and this has been a godsend.
Wow. This just made me feel a zillion times better…if you’ve been struggling with anxiety/PTSD/feeling unsafe in your body, please do this!!! Worked shockingly well. This is not a drill.
I’m addicted
I’ve never experienced anything like this, that works so immediately
Love ur channel and energy
Thank you, Andrea Colamartini! I appreciate you taking the time to write and watch... Keep going and be sure to let me know if you have any specific requests :)
Thank you so much, had so much neck and back pain and felt like everything in my body was tearing apart sometimes, 5 minutes later and I feel so loose and comfortable, its like I'm brand new!!
I love the three phase picture on the wall, of the tree...it’s fab!
i said the same ;)
This is amazing I can’t believe this worked.. I’ve been dealing with so much stress and anxiety lately I needed something to feel like myself again. Thank you!
OMG, the tip about doing this IN the stressful situation is pure gold. £ years ago I got into a big financial difficulty. The correspondences were always via email. The issue took several months to resolves, so that every time I went to open my emails I was overwhelmed by fear and a sense of "dread". 3 years later and the body still responds this way. I did what you suggested in the process of opening my emails. Wow, lots of crying and releasing. I also did the finger in the ear canal and gently massaging one too, and got even more releasing and crying. Thank you so much again DR Renee.
My mom has anxiety and we're both into natural means to heal our bodies and minds and to "hack" our nervous systems. I stumbled upon your channel and this video after learning more about the vagus nerve and, in addition to discovering this awesome reset, I instantly found you to be delightful 😁. You've got a new subscriber and thank-you so much for your awesome channel!
I really like the way you did this. It's a pleasure to see someone who really knows what they're doing.
Walter Jackson... thank you for your words. I appreciate them (and you!) very much and am noticing a lovely warm smile as a result. Best wishes and benevolence to you! :)
Wow! I've done a lot of quick relaxation techniques--tapping, deliberate yawning, three breaths, etc.--this is the fastest, best one yet!!! I yawned and swallowed and sighed in the first few seconds.
David C.... Love hearing this! Way to go, it's so nice to hear that you're finding something that works really well for you :)
Incredible! I can’t be live how simple this is. Thank you so much
Simple remedies can be the BEST ONES - to learn how to listen 👂 to our bodies and care for them
Use our intuition

I am 75 years old and this is without a doubt the best way to remove stress I have ever found ! Thank you so much Renee !
At first I felt so stressed doing it then I cried during the exercise. Thank youu❤
F H ..... I find this incredibly beautiful. thank you for sharing x
I had almost one month with stress related palpitations. Earthing did help, but this exercise help a lot. I found your video yesterday, I slept great and today no palpitations. Thank you very much! Greetings from Baja, México.
Thank you! The past two months I have had to rely on RUclips doctors because I cannot get to see a doctor anywhere for 3 to 6 months, and I’m in a large city. I’m not sure what’s going on in this club, but people like you are helping a lot of us that are suffering. Thank you again! ❤
Z2.... what a blessing youtube is for so many. Glad to have had you join us here - please reach out with any specific requests for videos, we love to help! :)
@@nervoussystemninja Thank you for your kindness!
My mind whent silent after doing this for 2-3 mins on each side. Thanks so much my mind has never been silent in years.
I have been working on the parasympathetic response for a month now but this works straight away. Vegus nerve stimulation works, I have woken up with anxiety every morning the last 4 months. I still wake with it but I do this exercise, vegus ear massage and deep belly breathing (somatic experience) and the anxiety just disappears. It’s like magic. Thanks for sharing this amazing technique.
I did this exercise one time and tension in my neck that had been there for months simply drained out. I just couldn’t believe it. All forms of massage just made the problem work and i was experiencing a lot of headaches. Truly impressive. Thanks for sharing.
Mary W..... I am utterly pleased to read this. I acknowledge you for taking the time and having the curiosity to explore this.... your body's abilities ARE truly impressive and I am just delighted to hear you be able to tap into them :)
Is there anything else I can post or share more about that would be helpful for you?
WOW! thank you. adding this to the top of my "go to" list for instant relaxation. I experienced a whole body sigh. ahhhhh.
Wow, this “exercise” !! In few seconds My eyes were blinking unnaturally and my my teeth were clicking few times, so I rather stop after 10 seconds or so and then repeated 10-15 seconds again. Now after so much tears out of my eyes I have back my !!inner smile!! and feeling myself so lightly. Thank you very much for sharing this. I wish you had great days ❤😊
Thank you thank you thank you... I have been stressed out for 3 days for no reason my heart's been raising everything's on the edge... I've had headaches... I just did this and within seconds my heart went down and my ancient death left... Peace be with you God bless you and this method...
Trisha Reichenberg..... blessings and gratitude for you. thank you x
Wow this worked for me right away, twice. As soon as I turned my eyes I yawned almost immediately! My body approves! Thank you so much, I’ll be sharing with my clients !
Love hearing this - thank you for taking the time to write! :)
Here I am 10 minutes later still no sigh, yawn or swallow 😦
Because it's not based on polyvagal theory and EMDR which have no scientific backing.
Thanks a lot Renee- I first watched this about 2 weeks ago and I have been doing it several times a day since then and I always get results sometimes in 10 seconds or in a minute or longest a few minutes, however I always feel better after doing it. I had previously never heard of it.
That's awesome - way to go! I'm excited for you.. and acknowledge you in that YOU are doing the work. and YOU get the results :)
@@nervoussystemninja Hi Renee. I do your Vagus Nerve Reset technique a few times a day and it only takes 1 or 2 minutes each time and feel much better.
I kind of love that you just left calmful etc. in there.
Good vid; you have a good explaining way.
Thank you so much 🙏🏼😇💚
I’ve done this for a long time, 10-20 min, and the yawn / sigh / cough never came. Both sides.
Thank you so much! I just did this while sitting and within 10 sec I yawned! Also I am trying to quit smoking and it is making me very stressed, so I will try this when I am having a difficult moment 🥰
Thank you, Stanley Rosenberg! The book, he describes is called "Accessing the healing power of the Vagus nerve". Very readable😃
Anna Berghammer... right!?! His work has been so helpful - thanks for taking the time to comment. If I could redo that video, I would have remembered to give him spoken credit, instead of only in the written description. Blessings and Best to you.
@@nervoussystemninja Captions would be nice. The video is useless to me without them.
@@nervoussystemninja I usually do deep belly breathing exercises while in this same prone position, and it helps me fall asleep as well. I wonder if this activates the vagus nerve too! I will try this exercise without the belly breathing and see what happens, I wonder if it would be a suitable variation to still do the eye movement AND the belly breathing?
😃😃😃
I'm having trouble figuring out the 3 o clock eye position... But I guess as long as I move the eye to the sides it doesn't matter?
your voice is so soothing and affirmative! my nervous system calmed down just by listening to this video.
Thank you! That’s lovely to read😇
I started doing wim hoff method and I realized if I laughed and smiled from the stomach ( making these push movements like when you laugh) when I am holding breath during wim hoff breathing it relaxes my breathing muscles. It feels like a vagus nerve reset. I can feel the tension being released .
Oh wow, feels like my body has had a mini workout, and I never workout. I liken this to a craniosacral therapy session, my body did a myriad of things all by itself, resulting in my chronic back pain going, for now. Excellent. Thank you.
Louise Voraujan.. that's beautiful! Thanks for sharing, it's so beautiful to see confirmation - that healing lies within, and this exercise creates a lovely environment to enhance the possibility and contribution to a healing atmosphere. Thanks for writing, and best wishes to you! :) Renee
The exercise is fabulous, so is listening to your voice explaining it. Both super relaxing haha
Tried it had a yawn . This is new to me. Hopfully this helps relax my frazzled nerves. Will have to research this, I like to understand the whys & how's 🤔
I wish I found this video three years ago. Can’t stop yawning. Feel so relaxed. I’ll use this every day. Thank you thank you thank you for making this.
I was already doing this, with my hands interlocked behind my head, involuntarily for years. I didn’t know anything about the vagus nerve, it just felt “good”, in a subconscious way.
Thanks for the video.
Thank you for watching! We have found that listening to our body's intuition and following it is a crucial part of feeling grounded. Your body already knew what it needed.
@@greentreemindllc1086 well we’re taught from birth that only doctors understand the body and mind (they don’t), and only pills and/or surgery can fix anything. Very profitable business. Test test test.
Back in reality, the body has an incredible ability to heal itself. I believe that now.
Bless you Renee! This one works so much better to relax me than all the exercises that focus on breathing. Focusing on breathing is actually very stress-inducing when recovering from coronavirus and the lungs still are not at 100%.
That's absolutely wonderful to hear PC Henderson! I wish you the best of luck in your recovery journey from what must have been a very stressful experience. 🙏🏼🌳
Honestly it has always made me feel stressed trying to focus on breathing, or picturing something in my mind. It actually gives me performance anxiety! This is much better.
This actually works!
Wow.
It's incredibly, right? Such an easy practice to implement in your daily routine 💚
"It is that simple; it's not always that easy."
Such a big Truth, Dr. Renée!
Your phrase echoes words frequently said by Esalen co-founder Dick Price and by his widow Christine Stewart Price, in teaching Gestalt Awareness Practice.
May all beings be free from suffering. Your work continues the tradition of bodhisattvas.
Thank you so much for those amazing and inspiring words!
At the beginning, I was in a collapsed state and this exercise took nearly two minutes to stimulate a yawn. Now, however, after months of nervous system work, after 3-5 seconds I'm yawning!
I liked your new word “Comful!” Peaceful and comfortable, thank you!
yay, you're welcome! Thanks for writing :)
You're a good communicator, lady. The presentation you gave in this video could be put in chapter of a book with almost no editing required.
I have been struggling with many health issues that have affected the vagus nerve. I have been taking Parasym Plus and it does help, but this is amazing! It took me almost 10 min at the 3 o'clock position and 5-6 min at the 9 o'clock position. I have HPA Axis Dysfunction as well, so my body has been severely reactive. I do meditation and breathwork, but this has been more calming than most of the other exercises I've tried. I have been yawning nonstop since doing this. So grateful for finding your video. I have been trying to repair the vagus nerve and parasympathetic nervous system for almost a year. I am going to purchase Accessing the Healing Power of the Vagus Nerve.
Sarah Abts... this is beautiful to read, lovely and wonderful. I am delighted to hear about your journey and look forward to hearing what else you learn from Stanley's wonderful book! Best wishes to you, Renee :)
how do u know when to use 9 or 3 oclock, and is there other like 12 or 6 oclock?
Do you have palpitation
Same, it takes me way longer than 3 minutes for this to work.
I have suffered from high to severe somatic anxiety symptoms since burn out, coupled with CFS. A range of medication takes the edge off the problem but often doesn't completely touch it. Thus any slight trigger would make life uncomfortable. I don't ever say things like this. So this is more than meant. Your publicising this has changed my quality of life significantly. It may not work for everyone. But this - and your slow blinking technique - have both taken the constant nerves/butterflies away from me. They were felt in every breathe. I've tried all sort of other vagal nerve stimuli. Breathing exercises didn't quite hit it. Tapping. Meditation. None worked. The closest I came is with a device that sends sonic sound vibrations through the chest cavity to activate it in the same way that chanting or humming might. That helped but still didn't quite provide such easy and instant help. The two exercises I have tried that you advertised seem to have. Astounding. Thank you. I've been doing all I can to help my body heal it's parasympathetic nervous system including fighting for access to a neurological team that specialise in the autonomic nervous system. I shall be sharing this with them and looking forwards to being able to relax more now. I've been enjoying yawning!!! I've not felt able to relax for more than a decade. I'm finding it works well with my eyes shut and also doing the 9PM position so that the muscle work is shared. ;)
Nice to have an explanation as to why this works.
I've never heard of this technique, but I'm definitely trying it. Thanks for sharing your expertise.🙏
You’re welcome 😊
And thank you🩷
plus ... you can be sitting in a chair doing this without giving away that you are trying to combat stress
Yeahhhh!! Now you're talking! I love this super sneaky strategic application to really take charge and handle with better control your very own nervous system. Way to go!
Thank you so much! It took about five minutes but then the yawn came and a little light headed but once it passed.. I feel so much better 💙✨
Yeahhhh!!! I love to hear it, RachelGDollFace! In what ways did you notice that you felt better?
@@nervoussystemninja She went into a deep sleep and cannot answer! LOL
Omg I’ve been sleeping like this for two weeks and have not taken any Valium either. I had no idea about why I felt better thankyou
Jacqueline Quigley.. that's awesome! I love it when pieces of understanding come together :)
Wow! Im glad this popped up to my recomended! Thank you!
yay , thanks J q u - I appreciate you watching!
This made me yawn immediately..I repeated it two more times...made me yawn each time. I'm dealing with vestibular migraine, diagnosed after 2+ years of misdiagnoses. Also reading the book Heal Your Headache by Dr. David Buccholz ...doing the elimination diet to see if I have any food triggers. The book says that stress is a trigger, as is dehydration, the weather, not enough sleep, exercise either lack of or overdoing it. I was feeling really stressed b/4 my VM symptoms began, then I got a virus back in March 2020, and it's been miserable since. Stress certainly made my symptoms worse and moreso as time passed and I so no light at the end of the tunnel...I had to work at 'accepting' the symptoms which is hard to do but it does make a huge difference... So thankful for anything that helps. Vagus stimulation is in the list of things that does help VM. Thank you for showing this vagus nerve reset!
youtube put this in my feed. I do like knowing good stretches as I have ligaments that can get tight. I expected this to just be a stretch, but I followed along. eyes to 3 o'clock, okay. just after you said what to expect I felt a tingle in my nose before I couldn't control a yawn. It happened 3 more times than I really felt calm over me. Seeing I had coffee too late and I'm still energized that calmness took me over when it didn't have to.
Thank you for sharing! It is amazing what resetting your vagus nerve can do to your body 💚
Years ago I was experimenting with self-hypnosis. i put myself in a hypnotic state and told myself if I ever tapped the end of my nose with my fingers it would cause me to smile or laugh. I tried it and it seemed to work and then forgot about it. Some years later I tapped myself on my nose and it made me smile and I remembered. To be honest, I never think to tap my nose when I am in a stressful situation but any other time if I remember to do it it makes me smile and feel better. I enjoyed listening to your strategy and subscribed.
Robb's Homemade Life.... I appreciate you, your sharing, and enjoyed hearing about your perspective. We certainly have a lot of power within us that we can tap into.. perhaps with just a touch to the nose in the right way :)
thank you.
I yawned within 10 seconds, and have since yawned about 5 times in as many minutes. I hope it helps when trying to fall asleep. Thanks for the tip. Can’t wait for bedtime to try it.
Las Katz, well, how did it work?
It worked! Thank you.
@@laskatz3626 Thanks for responding !!
Renee, thank you for caring and sharing! ❣
Any time! I appreciate you!
ooooh wow i just went on a yawning spree when i did that . My shoulders relaxed afterwards. Tank you so much. I will continue to do this
Yay! Glad to hear it!
I'll be trying this before my step daughter's wedding this weekend.
Congrats! And Good Luck!🍀
Thank you! I’m chronically ill and about to be homeless again so I really needed this. I’ve never seen you before so it was Gods will that I saw this.
