The long vagus nerve controls the relaxation response of the heart, lungs, and digestive tract. Activating this nerve can reduce systemic inflammation, lower blood pressure and stress hormones, fight depression, and improve cognitive function. Stimulate the vagus nerve with belly breathing, singing, chanting, gargling, cold-water face washing, salivating, and manual therapy.
