-- Vagus Nerve Reset To Release Trauma From Your Body (Polyvagal Exercises) --
When it comes to trauma stored in the body, people usually ask me two questions.
The first is:
How do I know if I have trauma stored in my body?
The answer to that one is, you do. We all do. Trauma is a part of life and we’ve all got stuff.
(Even if you don’t remember it.)
It’s why our shoulders are tight and our backs ache. It’s why we get weekly massages and go to therapy.
It underlies most chronic health conditions and makes them worse.
Case in point:
Did you know that researchers have drawn a connection between experiencing racism and a higher prevalence of adult onset asthma for black women?
Trauma isn’t always about the Big Events. Yes, those count. Of course they do.
But so does having a distant mother (who likely had her own trauma).
Cultural shaming (hello women who were constantly told to be quiet, be small, not take up space).
Toxic work environments. Not being heard. Microaggressions.
And of course the ever prevalent accidents, injuries, falls out of trees and off horses, broken legs, cracked ribs, etc, etc, etc.
So, you’ve got some trauma. You don’t have to call it that, but it’s there, okay?
Now the second question: what do we do about it?
This is the part I love. SO MUCH of the conversation surrounding trauma in our culture boils down to understanding the narrative -- what’s your story?
That’s important, BUT…
It doesn’t get to the biological roots. These parts of our bodies are up to 500 million years old and they frankly don’t give a flying unicorn fart about your story.
So that’s where I come in.
We can “talk” to these ancient parts of you -- the parts where fear, stress and trauma are stored -- through movement and sensation, which form the language of your nervous system.
And that’s what I’m showing you how to do in this video.
You can use this vagus nerve reset regularly any time you feel stressed, anxious or tense.
Be sure and leave me a comment to let me know how this vagus nerve reset went for you!

Rubbish ! Meaningless exercises and too much meaning given to simple movements. It has nothing to do with vagus! Liar 🤥
Definitely helped my mobility.
@@geraldzarzoso9446 ,
Mobility may be but not vagus!!!! 🤣
Il suo libro è stato tradotto in italiano?
Should we hold the gaze still or is it ok to blink eyes?
you probably won’t see this but your exercises just helped me down from a suicidal episode. thank you.
I did see this and I’m so glad to hear that.
Have you tried this lately? I just stumbled across this video and enjoyed it and am glad to hear it has helped your🦋🫶🏻
Thank you. I need this too then. ❤
Many hugs to you ❤
love to you
We as a generation are incredibly lucky to have internet and TH-cam!
Amen to that!
Yes! True.
It won't last though : store and hoard as much as you can out of it !
@@S.M.Jean-Mahmoud_Ier are you a soothsayer?
When we focus on the right videos to help us then it truly is a blessing!
I suffer from complex Post-traumatic Stress Disorder and anxiety. I have been through various therapies over the years, I am talking more than a decade. This is going to sound weird now but this simple fast exercise actually works! My fiance sent me this link and I was very sceptical but I thought I give it a go. It really works, thank you Sukie!
I was very discouraged when I first began this practice because I could not hold the gaze for 30 seconds. In fact, it was such a powerful exercise for me, I became nauseous and dizzy after my first attempt with just 15 seconds on each side. However, I kept at it with my small 15 second gazes and tried to reassure myself that something was better than nothing. It was. Keep at it no matter how many seconds you can hold. It's a mediation element so that means it can build over time❣️ It did for me. 🌹
I was nauseous what causes that
Same! Dizzy early on
@@monicaz4949I also got extremely dizzy. I’m glad I’m not the only one.
Thank you for writing this. I had the same experience and feel a little discouraged. You writing this really helps. I’ll stick with it.
Thank you for the encouragement ❤
You know what's crazy? You get in this position and do this exercise automatically when you lay down in the grass and look up at the clouds. It's amazing that this exercise is so healing and it can be found in a fun activity
Wow!!!! Such a good point!
So when I turned my eyes to the left I started moaning (almost like a painful one but I wasn't in pain), it was a real struggle, almost disorienting. Is that normal?
Wow, I am sure that would be even more powerful to do this exercise in nature. Thanks for the insight.
@@amiecritesFlowsWithLove im just a rando on the internet, so I don’t know what im talking about lol. However, i started acupuncture for both physical and mental issues. when the acupuncturist hits my heart area, which is for emotions, i tend to sob for about a minute and then calm down, and sometimes i feel happy afterward. This last time i felt so sad during that minute it, but not any particular reason. It just felt like sadness that needed to he processed and let go.
Maybe you are releasing stored trauma with that one movement? If it doesnt hurt but you need to groan, maybe that’s some general emotional pain you are processing and releasing?
Probably another reason the controllers are constantly spraying the sky so that its almost 80-90% of the week ugly.
Rare is the day we have blue skies, let alone blue skies with clouds.
Now the sky looks like a dull faded blue and chalk lines are smeared back and forth on it.
But this will change, thank God, this year.
WOW. 26 YEARS of psychiatric drugs and hospitals. I just did this excersize, breathed several big sighs, now I feel like a lifetime has been lifted off of my shoulders 😯🤗💞 THANK YOU and thank the algorithm that brought us together 😁
really?
@@cindysmith6040 yeah i don't know about that. my eye muscle felt worked out, that's it.
meant ironic.
@Alicia Hoverson did it last? Is it still helping? Thx
Sure 🙄
It was hard for me to look right at one spot, but no reaction like yawning. Looking left at one spot was easier, but I felt really emotional, tears came out and swallowing. Thank you for this exercise Sukie.
Ive had tears falling every time as well!
Thanks for the video. Just like to let everyone know that the head turning technique we Muslims practice five times or more in our prays. We are told to be steadfast in prayers as it is beneficial to us. Now I understand why. I have gone through allot in my life but it has not destroyed me as my prayers have helped to deal with all the trauma physically and psychologically.
Thanks again.
100 percent agree
This is fascinating, thank you for sharing!
I never made that connection even though I'm a practicing Muslim myself! Thanks for reminding me
Shut up. People turn their heads like 50 times a day. Stop associating everything with religion. That's stu*pid
I thought the same that we do it five times or more in our prayers. SO, Allah wants to heal our souls and bodies. Indeed HE is the greatest and loves us💗🥰
It instantly relieved the painful ball of energy that grows in my chest when I'm anxious. Thank you so much for sharing. It's extremely hard to try and heal trauma when you're living in poverty and can't afford professional guidance, resources like yours are life savers.💜
I'll second that!
Ya, kinda weird. Really worked
L
Agreed. Simple and Accessible.. give up that poverty thing? You’re obviously worth more
What happens in vagus doesn’t always stay in vagus
I can't believe how painful and uncomfortable it was to do this for 30 seconds. I started feeling this tingly sensation at the base of my spine and realized I was clenching my teeth. As soon as I started to relax I began crying! And breathing very deeply. What a release.
I started crying when trying this what is this?
@@markocoric9233 I don't know but it felt great! Definitely took me by surprise.
I felt a sadness come over me.
@@markocoric9233 Crying (or grieving) is itself a release of trauma from the body. So definitely a good thing.
Me too . First times I couldn’t do this for more than 10
seconds. It got easier
This was amazing. I was preparing for a potentially stressful meeting (about which I could not stop ruminating), did this exercise, and was CALM. The neck range of motion also improved even though it was good to start with. I taught it to my husband and both of us slept like logs last night
I love this so much
I really appreciate that you get right to the point and have a soothing presence. Thank you.
My neck was so stiff. While doing this I found myself taking a really deep breath I wasn’t expecting and then next thing I burst into tears. I can’t describe the feeling. It was pure sorrow and relief. My head is turning so much more easily now.
I don’t know what just happened but that was profound.
Thank you 🙏🏻
I got emotional but fought the tears because I felt silly. Now I wish I would have gone with it. I am blown away by how well I could move my neck after.
I feel this so much! The same thing happened for me, it feels like a miracle. So happy I randomly came across this video on TH-cam
I had this same reaction the first time I did it
I found myself laughing for a while after. I haven't laughed in months 🥺
me too. i teared up but then i felt more relaxed and my breathing slowed down
If you don't get an automatic deep breath or yawn the first few times you try this exercise, keep it up. It took me 7 days before my nervous system responded with a yawn. I also have a hard time lacing my fingers behind my neck because of shoulder immobility and so I placed my hands as close as I could get them instead.
Good to know. I keep doing it for long periods and get no yawn result or any major response. It must be that we had the most to gain from doing this exercise. I'll keep doing it. Appreciate thevcomment
@@dprice81 me too
I started crying
How long to actually keep the straight eye looking position when you start doing the exercise to experience the sigh, deep breath or the swallow like 10 minutes etc.
Useful, thank you. I've just tried it twice and I noticed nothing at all, to be honest. I'll keep trying though!
I was rear-ended 6 months ago, and as an otherwise active, upbeat person have really struggled emotionally with the loss of strength and mobility the injury has caused on my dominant Rt side. So, the exercise today brought a flood of tears when gazing toward the Left (did Rt side 1st; L second). Immediate increased mobility! Thank you❤
WOW
@@YeshuaKingMessiah who do you follow ? Not Yeshua I am sure ! Be kind
@@Dawn1065 huh?
I have been shallow breathing for at least 4yrs. I have a whole host of health problems with my digestive system being one of the them. I recently began researching the vagus nerve connection and done some vagus nerve exercises. I did this exercise last night and sensed a change in my breathing immediately. I awake this morning and so far the change is still there. THIS WORKS!!!
THANK YOU, I BELIEVE YOU MAY HAVE HELPED TO SAVE MY LIFE... GOD BLESS YOU ❤🙏🏾
How are you feeling 2 weeks later, checking in- was it temporary or still feeling relief and doing this?
@@FadyDizzle it depends on how you look at it, I've felt myself reverting back a couple of times, but the technique that I'm using literally takes seconds to complete and correct.
That’s awesome. Check out the book Oxygen Advantage if you wanna stay out of that shallow breathing pattern for good
WOW!!! I didn't know what to expect when performing this exercise, most people have commented they cry or have better motion in the neck, not me my experience was completely different. I have had a tremendous amount of stress for decades in combination with covid related damage. When I started the exercise looking to the right it was hard for me to focus my eyesight on a given point, I kept going holding my eyes as far as they would go. About 5-10 seconds in a huge wave of panic came over me, rapid heartbeat, uneasiness, alarms going off, i kept going. I had no swallow or yawn halfway through. When my eyes came back to center it felt like my entire chest cavity opened up for my first deep breathe in decades, it was incredible. I looked to the left for 30 seconds, my legs started to get warm and tingly. My heart was beating so quickly and my breathing was so rapid i thought to myself OMG I'm going to have to go to the emergency room. I sat up, was very dizzy a little discombobulated. It felt like i was walking for the fist time, very strange feeling like my legs didn't know what to do. I sat on the bed and checked my pules which remained over 130 BPM for about 15 minute's, i could breathe so easily and felt so calm. About 3 minutes in i had a strong urge to go to the bathroom, most amazing bowel movement of my life. It took about 2 hours to calm down and for the body to get settled. I went to the beach the next morning and i never felt more relaxed, stress free and a calmness that is indescribable. This has helped me so much I'm at a loss for words, i must have had so much trauma built up it exploded.... The second time i did the exercise about a week later, i threw up a few minutes later. What i find interesting is most of my experience is GI related, maybe its from my appendicitis trauma. Another interesting point, i went to see an energy healer a couple months prior. She stated, huh that's interesting your brain and GI tract are not communicating at all..... I truly believe this exercise has helped them reconnect, thank you!!!
wow that must have been tough at first, my stress is affecting my gut it just is not working too well going to try this today!
The vagus nerve runs on zinc and magnesium at least that's what I found on Google. I use to have fainting spells and magnesium resolved them. Do your own research
A lot of what people believe is from cvd is actually from the injections.. so much info on this but you have to dig as mainstream media are covering it up.
And can be detoxed, special supplement protocols available if you check online, to keep the cells detoxed and this clears symptoms.
Me, too. Major panic attack and anxiety came up for me. It was so uncomfortable, but afterwards, i felt serene and calm.
Holy cow. The difference in neck mobility was quite noticeable. No sighs or swallows, but super cool connection between the movements. Thanks.
Yes...movement very noticeable
You have to do what is intuitive for YOU. This is just a guideline to get you started. Exercising i.e. taking long walks in nature and conscious deep breathing also gives us a reset. Fasting from things we do every single day and observing our thoughts helps as well. Be Blessed.
@@SunInSeptember And another valuable example of the phrase "Knowledge is power", I'm glad your neck is doing better!
I actually got a little lightheaded
My neck, shoulder blades and spine were so stiff for the last few days. I remembered seeing this a while ago and came back to it today. One big yawn on each side eye and it’s 80% better! I guess that’s where I store the hard days. Have a great day and thank you!
This is my first time doing this exercise. I definitely noticed a slight shift in a more balanced side to side turn of my neck. It’s a great start in healing my vagus nerve❤
So far anyone I've seen presenting this has neglected to emphasize the exact position on the back of the head that gives you the greatest result and feedback. In Stanley Rosenberg's further description of this exercise he notes that the eye muscles doing the movement are connected at the BASE of the skull. So by making sure your first fingers or thumbs feel just beneath the curve of the occipital bone just above the connection to the neck you can notice very subtle changes in the muscular tension. To find the optimal point for your body with your hands low on your skull behind your head slowly nod chin to chest In the west we call this a nod YES. (some other cultures use this motion differently!) Try it with your hands both ways and see what you notice. It's all about YOU and learning to know how your body and heart FEEL. Thank you Sukie, your video is very helpful. Can't wait to see more of your channel!
This was so much more uncomfortable than I anticipated. So hard to keep my eyes to the side for 30 seconds but WOW! I felt a little dizzy and uneasy during the exercise, but my neck is looser and I feel a bit clearer!
I experienced the same thing, I wonder why that was? But yes more relaxed neck, but didn’t like dizzy uneasy 😬 feeling
Yes! This. My anxiety spiked to high hell, but afterwards the mobility improvement was pretty spectacular.
Same !!
Man it actually hurt to try and keep my eyes to each side and got a headache, I wonder why??
Same!! Felt like motion sickness for me. Did not enjoy that aspect but the after was better.
I had immediate positive response when doing this exercise, and was able to move my head side to side without a hitch! Thanks
Wow, the tension in my neck and back has completely gone away. This is exactly what I needed and it’s so simple. Crazy. Thank youu! ❤
Sorrow on the right; anger on the left (but less angry than a previous exercise on the left0. This is fascinating. Thank you.
Honestly, this is crazy! I thought my stiffness was due to my arthritis but my neck and back relaxed immediately after this exercise. I'm so grateful.
It's a place our body stores tension, hense the need for a release valve!
😄
@@cristineconnell7803 wawoooooo
Wow! 🤍 your dorsal must have been active. Thank you for sharing 🙏🏾
I've done this exercise in the evening, before going to bed. What I noticed, which is amazing, my body was far more relaxed in the first day of doing this exercise. When I did the exercise the second time, last night, I was extremely relaxed, I don't even remember when I fell asleep.
I could literally cry, i just did this sitting in the library and it just made me feel more safe and released some of the crippling tension and anxiety in my body. thank you for this video 🙌
I actually cried. When looking both ways, tears just fell
I broke my neck 23 years ago in a car accident I don't remember. I've never had the stiffness in my neck shift like that!!
Did anyone else’s eyes hurt when they did this? After ten seconds my eyes started to get tired. I wasn’t sure if I was looking too far right but made it through! Definitely feeling more relaxed now.
My eyes hurt too.....
My eyes felt tired and uncomfortable to hold too, I didn’t feel the need to swallow but I did feel relief from this and when I sat back up my head was easier to turn. Guess I’ll have to keep practicing
Yes mainly on one side
I had trouble with looking left, my eyes got really tired. I need more practice! I did feel less tense and more relaxed afterwards though.
I got dizzy when I my I brought my eyes back to the center
Sometimes simply being aware of a problem is the first step. I went through a rough patch related to a bad business dealing 8 years ago, but even now I find myself prone to anxiety over the smallest things. My body is always on the defense. This simple video has helped me so much! Thank you, much gratitude.
This is amazing!! Sitting up, it was easier turning / more comfortable turning my head to my left. Afterwards, I felt instant relief turning in both directions. Thank you so much!! ❤️
I’m almost 76 and I noticed a huge improvement in mobility. Thank you 🙏
My neck quit hurting the first time I tried it, I have been a bodywork therapist for over 40 years. You have my attention, teacher.
So I've always felt like my body was kind of not properly aligned and that it kept getting locked up somehow. It has caused me a lot of pain and it is only in the last few years that I've become really aware of this and started finding out more about it. And I think you low-key just posted the key to it all on TH-cam...
Thank you
My therapist suggested this video, tried it today and that tension I felt for months is looser… I am glad it worked for me! Gonna save it to my favorites!
Doing this exercise brought up some childhood stuff i'd never dealt with, I found myself crying, understanding the situation, and dealing with it - thanks for this
This is one of the very few things I ever tried that worked exactly as promised. Sighed a little, nothing special. Afterwards, I could move my neck much more, and more evenly. This gave me a pleasant chill all over. Then I felt calm.
Also, I honestly did not think it would work. That there are such things in the world makes me so happy.
It’s called: lying down.
Filled with gratitude. Thank you.❤
Thank you. You're literally a life saver. I've been searching for years for this type of therapy in person, I've gone to countless therapist and counselors. Lately I've been denied care due to insurance, no availability of counselors or therapists. I'm so glad I found you today🤗
This exercise made me laugh uncontrollably, idk why but thats a release for sure
This comment made me smile so much
Laughter is good for us. ❤️
That's so cool 😆
@@nkululekomtolo2539 made me too,now I'm laughing too😆
Laughter is great medicine! Nothing like a good laugh!
This is amazing! I didn’t even realize how stiff my neck was. During looking to the right for 30 seconds, I randomly felt so much joy that I had tears coming from my eyes. I felt so peaceful. Afterwards, I almost felt like an owl. 😂 I can turn my neck better than ever and I feel so calm and relaxed. Thank you! I’ve been through the ringer my whole life and I’m only 25 and this really just released something for me.
Omg this is the first time I've had such immediate relief. Other than mid winter dipping my head under the water at Loch Lomond but the water isn't cold enough just now. This is amazing thanks so much. New subscriber ❤
I yawned on both sides after about 20 seconds. I definitely had improvement of mobility on both sides! This was so simple, yet, so impactful!! Thank you!
First I tried 30 seconds on each side and didn't experience anything. I tried it again for about 40 seconds and still nothing. So I tried a third time, 60 seconds on each side. Then my breathing suddenly became very deep and a bit faster. I could feel energy moving through my body, entering my feet. As I sat up I moved my jaw (I have had some clicking from my jaw on the right side) and both sides of my jaw sounded *sqwishhh* in my ears and the clicking in my jaw was gone which I've had for maybe 6 months. It's like something losened up on the right side and made it balance on both sides. This is great. I will keep doing it. I think it may be a great tool to use after meditation as it can bring up energy blockages to the surface in the process of releasing them. Thank you for this video!
I'm 58 and in good shape, but starting to develop arthritis in my neck after decades of tension. My neck has started to relax for the first time in weeks.
Voltaren is available over the counter...recommended by the orthopedic surgeon I visited about knee pain.
you probably have trigger points in your scm and trap muscles, so do I. Please check it out and see if you get the reffered pain.

🤩Thank you so much!!!😍
Wow this just immediately took the stiffness out of my neck! Thank you for sharing!
I’ve been feeling this pit in my stomach for months due to grief, and this video came up and did the exercise. My neck mobility improved dramatically and felt joy returning. Thank you so much.
It worked! I am 71 years old. I have arthritis in my neck. Hurts to look side to side, especially to the left side. I did the exercise with you and the pain was lessoned when I turned my head from side to side. Quite amazing! Thank You!
This was amazing…I just recently was exposed to the Vagus Nerve and since I live in trauma I thought I’d give it a try. After doing the exercise with you my neck side to side is so much more flexible, I can’t stop yawning, and I immediately felt the need to swallow. Thank you for this video and I look forward to seeing more past and hopefully present if your still posting!!!xoxoxo
I have never heard of this before. I did the exercise, 30 seconds each side, and the difference it made in the stiffness in my neck was amazing.

Got this link from a brother from our academy and i can definitely feel relief but theres much more stuck inside of me. Thanks
My body held tension everywhere. During the exercise, I felt the tension in my legs release. Thank you. ❤
I had trauma in the form of an mva about 47 years ago which harmed my cervical spine. After many chiropractic and "regular" pain doctors who dispense rx - on what seemed to be a never ending trial basis - These Vagus Nerve resets help more than those methodologies. And I am 65. Thank you, Sukie!
I have never known what it feels like to feel like myself. So much trauma from an early age.
I feel for you. I hope you can find how to feel yourself
Me too. EMDR and meditation can help.
Same. I totally sympathise with that. Childhood trauma turns into adult mental health. I wish you all the best and all the happiness in the world!
I'm so sorry. Try to trust that you're in there. Find the things that feel like they take you closer, and be gentle with yourself. I believe you'll meet the person that you are one day, and I hope it will be soon. 💜
look of Kambo... then Bufo.. both just changed my life...relevaled then eliminated PTSD...
This actually really loosened up my neck a lot! Fascinating!
I felt instant relief. Done this exercise twice now. The second time I had involuntary tears in my eyes, my neck movement also felt lighter plus I yawned. Thank you so much for this. God bless you!
This is amazing to do. Nothing was releasing the tension in my neck for YEARS and these couple of minutes have just relieved it. Thank you. I’m so grateful 🙏♥️
I have suffered from lightheadedness, several episodes of collapses and my blood pressure has dropped to very low readings. We finally attributed these problems to my Vegas nerve . Your exercise is first time in three years I have a hint of finally getting help, Thank You so much!
I have been suffering major anxiety for last few weeks. Just done this and feel like a weight has been lifted. Feels blissful. Can't thank you enough 😊
Try Viridain magnesium 300g . It took 2 weeks to effect. I have suffering menopause anxiety for 17 years.
Wow. Seriously just wow. I can’t believe how much my range of motion evened out just from doing this exercise. Thank you!
The quality of your content is amazing - my new favourite youtube channel
Thank-you so much for walking me through this experience. This was my first time doing so.
I am at awe with a huge smile at the difference before and after. 😊
Wow, I did mine sitting up, and 30 seconds on each side and a lot of tension melted away, and my baseline mobility improved by about 20%!
Granted I did this in a park looking at nature, which also benefits the nervous system, but still significant improvement!
Thank you for this! Going to teach it to my clients.
This is amazing. Truly shocked at how such a subtle movement can be so powerful
This exercise eased restriction on my left side. Left and right are now just about equal. Thank you for that. I'm feeling quite perky.
Wow, that sounds amazing! I have been struggling to treat my left side and headaches since ages!
@@faisals8638 Hello, have you ever tried the breathing technique by Wim Hof (aka The Iceman)? I’ve seen numerous comments from people on his videos who say they no longer get chronic headaches, even migraines, after establishing a daily practice of his technique. It’s good for many other things too, including stress, anxiety and even depression with some people. He has TH-cam videos that guide you through at different levels so you get to start where you’re comfortable. It involves holding you breath, which gets easier with a daily practice. All the best. 💛
@@kathyannk I have! Though I'm not regular but I felt great whenever I tried it..
@@faisals8638 If you establish a regular practice (1-3 times a day) you may be amazed. I know it’s hard but well worth it. 💛
@@kathyannk Thank you, I will try.
I definitely noticed an improvement, I had some tightness and resistance turning my head to the right but after the exercise I noticed it was a little smoother when I tried it again. Thanks!
To the right felt quite neutral. Left immediately brought tears. Deep stuff moving immediately. I have so much I'm trying to process at the moment. Multiple bereavements and family losses. Going to do it again right away. Thank you so much for the relief this has brought me x
This is essentially the part of EMDR therapy for PTSD/Depression/Anxiety w/o the accompanying coaching from a therapist. It is an very effective tool for those suffering with those psychological conditions which also has a physical component that this video was addressing.
in EDMR do you think about the trauma at the same time?
@@cloverandluna as I understand it, yes. Your therapist guides you through it as you are doing the eye movements.

Believe me when I tell you I never thought I'd be writing a sentence like that. Really feel into whether you're open to this approach. If not, then find what works.
B) In a few days I'll receive the Fisher Wallace stimulator device., cleared by the FDA to help depression, anxiety, and sleep issues. It stimulates the brain to create more serotonin using radio waves.
I encourage anyone to look both of those up. And I just had an emotional release doing this video, so thanks to the creator of this video. I'm a huge proponent of somatic therapy to release trauma.
Thank you Sukie, this was great! I've listened to Porges and studied some of the collective trauma healing. On the baseline check I clearly noticed my right neck turn was less open than the left and afterwards it was clearly more open and fluid, on both sides...very cool!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I've been fighting anxiety and can't breathe much deeply. This is something I need to continue. I've had/have p.t.s.d.
Just started counseling today. But I needed something.
This is the video I keep coming back to when I need instant relief! Thank you for the info!
Worked instantly to help relieve anxiety. I am so grateful for you and people like you who are here to help bring healing to our minds and bodies. Thank you!
I'm blown away at the feeling after, I feel like my vision is now focused (I have bad tics due to tourettes and adhd and I could move my head so much more. I feel like I degressed to my health when I was a few years younger and not riddled with stress
That really works!!! Love how simple it was yet quite effective!
So glad i found this. My left head turn was really tight initially. When i was looking to the left, my sinus cleared up esp on my right sinus. My head feels clearer now. AND my neck is not constrained when i turn left. Amazing!
Amazing how these exercises work. Ive been doing them when I feel tense during the day and my whole body responds so quickly. Thank you Susie
Thank you! I felt a big tension release in my head, neck, shoulders and gut. Just what I needed ❤️
Thank you for your service.
YES, YES AND YES!!!!
Thank you!
Happy Holidays!
pretty amazing. I felt alot of emotion rising in me, totally worked with the head movement from side to side, great thanks
Wow! This gave me a great release of tension. Thank you!
that was honestly like magic! thank you
Wow that was amazing. Thank you. Felt so much more calmer and my tension in my neck has considerably released.
Oh my god! I experienced severe childhood trauma and lived with undiagnosed adhd and autism for 27 years. I did this now after having a extremely anxiety driven day with lots of pain. After this my whole neck and shouldered loosened up totally and I suddenly had to laugh. I feel so relieved I really can’t believe it. Thank you so much!
Wtf I also had childhood trauma experiences and also laughed during the experience. I was surching for similar experiences and found you as the only one who also laughed
I also laughed too. I think because in the moment, the fact that such a simple thing of moving my eyes to the right had allowed me to feel so peaceful was shocking.
hey me too!
Oh wow!!!! The neck movement range completely changedafter thebeye exercise. This is amazingly relaxing. Wow
Thank you! I definitely noticed a shift in my nervous systems. 😊
This is amazing! The difference in neck mobility was incredible and my neck feels so relaxed now. Something was definitely released because I couod never take deep breaths and now my breathing is so deep and relaxed!!! Thank you!!
This is amazing! I have been carrying a lot of physical and psychological trauma in my shoulders and neck for years. After I did this I felt so much relief from the stiffness I was feeling. Thank you so much 🙏
This was incredible. I was vibrating from a highly anxious and triggering exchange. I couldn't focus on going back to work because I was literally shaking. I chose your video at random while searching for Disregulation. Did your exercise while sitting at my desk...total reset and calm! Fascinating, thank you!
I am curry crying tears of joy after years of physical and psych therapy THIS released tension and anxious frustration faster than and more effectively than literally any other exercise I have been taught. I can't thank you enough ❤️❤️
Wow, this is amazing. I cannot believe how much easier it was to move my neck after this simple exercise. Thank you!
Wow, such a difference afterwards. I could hardly turn to the left before and afterwards it was even better than the right side. Thanks !
That was amazing on my very sore neck. I could not stare that long because my eyes felt too dry but i kept the position with my eyes closed. After doing both sides my neck has so much more mobility and the pain is pretty much gone. Thank you for sharing!!!
This literally has changed my life and how I function daily. The exercise I just did with u just then I noticed a significant change to my right side where I have the most issues, thank you 😍
Wow, just started crying, not balling it heaving just a gentle cry where tears flowed.
