so i just learnt about a nerve in our body that i didn't know existed but here's the thing: everyone SHOULD know what this nerve does because it's super super important.

it's called the vagus nerve and it's the longest cranial nerve in the body (a cranial nerve connects the brain and the parts of the body, especially the neck and the head).

so, what this nerve does is help us relax after a stressful encounter. also, this nerve has a "tone" and it's called the vagal tone. this tone represents the activity of the nerve. and if THIS TONE is high, then it means you can de-stress so much quicker than usual. it helps you relax.

so, what should you do to increase this vagal tone?

~ take cold showers whenever you can.

~ dunk your face in ice water (just basically expose yourself to the cold)

~ when you are sitting simply, take deep slow breaths — 6 breaths per minute.

~ sing when you can or just hum a song when bored. chanting and gargling also helps because vagus nerve and the vocal chords are connected.

~ meditate when you can

~ exercise, exercise, exercise (obviously)

~ and for god's sake, laugh people. laughing is so therapeutic because it can reduce your body's main stress hormone.

~ treat yourself to a massage

by doing these, you can control your body to relax. don't let your body overrule you. it can also help reduce anxiety and depression. happy de-stressing!
