All of these were so helpful. I watched 3 videos in a row. I was having a trauma response, with panic attacks, a tension headache, and nausea. I had to stay home from work. I could not stop my body from revolting against me. This was life changing. Thank you.
I normally find that I’m too stressed and in fight/flight to find benefit from excersises like these but damn dude your voice is so relaxing and I’m yawning away! Thank you for all you’re doing x
Really appreciate for doing this calming technique video, it really helpful for my anxiety and insomnia especially through your gentle voice , thanks 🙏 !
I've had anaphylaxis and now get a lot of anxiety over whether I can breathe. My stomach gets super tense, and I can't find the right muscles to belly breathe because everything is clenched so hard. I think the sniffing/laughing trick might really help me with that! And I am using those calm down buttons in my ears regularly. Thank you so much. 💜💜💜
I really enjoyed your videos and your calming voice. The methods work very fast. I look forward to using them. I sent them to my daughter to help with stress. Thank you so much!
Thank you, Kyle, for this helpful video! It’s always helpful to have more tools in my toy chest for addressing the autonomic dysfunction that is part of the Long Haul COVID healing for millions of people in North America.
I'm regularly working on self directed compassion and when I start to yawn to the point my jaw hurts, cry, hiccuping, burping, get gas, I know that the self treatment hit the soft spot. Singing helped me to go through a lot of though times.
@@hmmcinerney oh, believe me, they are. I'm singing in a mix generation choir. We are singing at masses, different cultural events, we sing at funerals, weddings, you name it. Many members had difficult times and we helped them get on their feet with participating at practicing, organizing casual meetings after the practice so we talked a little, cried, drank a glass of wine and ate a good food. So yeah, choir is cleaning the soul and helping in therapeutic way both, those who listen and those who sing.
I appreciate that yoo speak in a soft voice and get right into the subject...then broaden to hoyse keepung briefly and then go deeper into the subject. Very, very nice transitions. Wonderful video. Very heloful. Thank you.
Very helpful tips. Every time you said "yawn" I did! I've never noticed that before. Thank you for walking us through this with such a calming presence :)
I just found your videos n found it very helpful. I didn’t know all these chronic sickness I was having was caused by my vagus nerve. Trying all your technics today. Thank you Kylie. Much love to you ❤️
Does the exercises help with really bad pains in front of head ? I’m looking up that link you sent me. My doctors here are no help at all. They don’t even know a lot about TBI ‘s and then environmental toxic exposures. I’m going to try the exercises soon. I can barely function from the pain. Your a Blessing Kyle
Very interesting. When I was a little girl, I used to have my father rub my ear. It just made me feel so good and I can relax and everything. I don't know how I got onto that at all, but I did, and I would ask him if he would rub my ear, and he would usually say yes. Suffer with Gastro paresis and I'm trying different things to help. I read where the vagus nerve activates the stomach's ability to empty, I sure am hoping it works because I am in a lot of pain and nausea. Thanks I will let you know if ot helps.If nothing else, I helps it helps the accompanying anxiety.
@calmwithkyle Thank you so much for your videos and I was curious if there are some books you can recommend? Anything about somatic healing and or polyvagal is appreciated. Thank you kindly!
You're welcome :) Hmm, good question. An informative one is "The Body Keeps the Score" - by Bissel Vander Kolk. Gabor Mate also has several excellent reads.
Thank you for making the Vagus Nerve important. It is very new in relation to other forms of calming oneself and more attention to it is needed. This VEGAS girl is happy to see the VEGUS nerve talked about more. Badumbum! 😊 Hope you got a good laugh from my help with your dad jokes! 😊 Thank you for your wonderful contributions to psychology, mental health and the brain being physical and the physical affected by the mental coming from the mind, and vise verse. The mind is our self talk. The brain is our body talk, both one, both the same and both need care for our whole to be healthy! ❤
IS it important to differentiate between stimulating vagus nerve and calming vagus nerve as far as exercises? Some of these seem directed at stimulation, bit confused.
If I can improve my vagus nerve will it also help with my digestion, I have IBS. No doubt that my vagus nerve is messed up because of heart palpitations and many other symptoms.
Research shows the Vagus Nerve link to digestion, so potentially yes, and, ruling out other medical issues. This is a really good question to bring to your doctor.
Cyclic sighing is also very effective for calming down and can be combined with the deep breathing technique in the video to enhance it to another level. All you have to do is take another small inhale after finishing the slow inhale.
My wife sent this to me. I lost 1/2 my voice from surgery they say from damaging the Vagus nerve. I wish I could sing or hum but that doesn't work with me. I have been doing acupuncture and medical massage with little change. Any advice on a voice loss via Vagus nerve? I will try what I have heard on this. Thanks.
Thanks for sharing. Unfortunately, not specific advice. That being said, maybe check out some of my other Vagus nerve videos, they have specific exercises that target the Vagus Nerve and don't require voice. All the best!
Research shows that Mindfulness practice can potentially facilitate these experiences and it is to be practiced with a certified mindfulness teacher and/or certified coach.
Calm with Kyle. I had to stop at 5 bc they are the worst 5 I have ever heard of. Whoever these work on Bro, must be low level traumatized people. Good Grief.

This is great
Thank you!
This is such good info w a soothing voice. To bad the ads are so often &jarring loud annoying
Thank you! in subsequent videos I'll be sure to remove some of the ads!
This was helpful
Happy to hear!
Can you provide link to your video on mind & thought techniques that you mentioned in the beginning.
Sorry for the delay! This is not a video I have published yet - it is in the making!
IS it important to differentiate between stimulating vagus nerve and calming vagus nerve as far as exercises? Some of these seem directed at stimulation, bit confused.
His voice is calming my vagus nerve but he's not stimulating my vagus nerve.
no. it means activating it.. better way of looking at it.
Does stimulating the vagus nerve help activate the GABA system in the brain?
I'm not 100% certain on this but there is a connection.
All my humming is in my throat. I can’t feel it in my belly at all.
If I can improve my vagus nerve will it also help with my digestion, I have IBS. No doubt that my vagus nerve is messed up because of heart palpitations and many other symptoms.
Going to see if I can find a TH-cam video that is nothing but yawning or laughing to help me to do each one of these.
Research shows the Vagus Nerve link to digestion, so potentially yes, and, ruling out other medical issues. This is a really good question to bring to your doctor.
This is so wonderful! Going to practice this with my clients in our CRT! 🤍
🙏💜
Is this worth doing with dysautonomia? It’s so awful😢

How do I get an out-of-body experience?
Research shows that Mindfulness practice can potentially facilitate these experiences and it is to be practiced with a certified mindfulness teacher and/or certified coach.
I would get rid of that candle I believe they emit dangerous fumes
Noted! And it is removed from my backgrounds.
I saw the book you are reading " Dude, you're going to be a Dad" 😂😂😂 was it good or did it scare you to death?
Haha for me it was okay, because I was reading a lot of other books that were more in depth with the pregnancy and delivery process.
I have the only anxiety of my freeze Response
🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹💗
I feel good after I cry 😂
Music is very irritating. You have a soft voice.
I must say, u are definitely out standing in your field too 😂
Hahahah I love this, thank you.
Calm with Kyle. I had to stop at 5 bc they are the worst 5 I have ever heard of. Whoever these work on Bro, must be low level traumatized people. Good Grief.
Thx for your feedback.
I like the joke
Haha thank you
boring
Helpful but why are you whispering….? It’s like someone is sleeping right next to you! 😂 I do all these things but still have tension. 🤷🏻♀️
Haha I'm not sure why I'm whispering.
Tone of voice also stimulates the ventral branch of vagus nerve - ie the social engagement system. Don't listen to the critics, great video! ❤
I love the choice of book 😂 so cute 4:58
Hahah thank you
