  Deep diaphragmatic breathing – with a long, slow exhale-is key to stimulating the vagus nerve and slowing the heart rate and blood pressure, especially during times of anxiety. 🧠 The autonomic nervous system consists of two branches – the sympathetic nervous system, known as the fight or freeze response and the parasympathetic nervous system, which allows us to return our bodies to a normal resting state once a threat has passed. 🧠 The VAGUS NERVE interfaces with parasympathetic control of the ❤️ , lungs, and digestive tract. 🧠 A higher vagal tone index is linked to physical and psychological well-being. Conversely, a low vagal tone index is associated with inflammation , depression , negative moods, loneliness , heart attacks, and stroke. 🧠 The tone of the vagus nerve is key to activating the parasympathetic nervous system. Vagal tone is measured by tracking your heart rate alongside your breathing rate. 🧠 Your heart-rate speeds up a little when your breathe in, and slows down a little when you breathe out. The bigger the difference between your inhalation heart-rate and your exhalation heart-rate, the higher your vagal tone. Higher vagal tone means that your body can relax faster after stress. 🧠 4 Ways To Strengthen Vagal Tone: ⚡️Effective stress management ⚡️Optimize your body’s ability to use food to produce energy at the cell level ⚡️Conscious breath work to learn how to control your breathing ⚡️Cold therapy . . #ihaveanxiety #breathingforanxiety #breathingexercises #vagaltone #breathingforstress #controlyourbreath #breatheyourwaytohealth #exhaleslow #deepbreathing #eastwesthealing #realfoodgangstas https://www.instagram.com/p/BuCB5VVgVVK/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=5bxof6a9jft0
