A really big THANK YOU to my friends. $800.00
For my birthday I asked for a donation instead of receiving gifts. I feel fabulous (& 50!) that there was $800 in the tin alone & I know others were donating direct to the fund. 100% of profits are used to honour Tom Bowens Legacy of working with children with disabilities. Thank you my wonderful friends.

If you are feeling STRESSED, ANXIOUS or OVERWHELMED, my top tip is to get outdoors & into nature. Take a walk. It could be at the beach or the bush, around the block checking out the neighbourhood gardens. It will help clear your head while encouraging your body to move.
It will help relieve the bodies stress.

The vagus nerve is a crucial nerve that runs from the brainstem to various organs in the body, including the heart, lungs, and gut.

It plays a vital role in regulating many essential functions.

It controls the parasympathetic nervous system, responsible for the body's "rest and digest" response. When activated, it lowers heart rate, reduces stress hormones, and promotes a sense of relaxation and well-being. It aids our digestion, supports the immune system, and influences social interactions.

Ways to activate your vagus nerve:

😮‍💨 Deep breathing – Practice slow, deep breaths, focusing on your diaphragm.
🧘 Meditation – Engage in mindfulness or relaxation techniques to calm your mind.
🗣️ Humming or chanting – Try vocal exercises like humming or singing to stimulate the nerve.
🥶 Cold exposure – Splash your face with cold water or take a cool shower.
😆 Laughter – Enjoy a good laugh, as it can activate the vagus nerve.
🏃🏼‍♀️ Exercise – Engage in moderate aerobic activities like walking, swimming, or yoga.
💆‍♀️ Massage/Bowen Therapy – Gentle touch stimulates pressure receptors under the skin, which send signals to the brain to activate the vagus nerve.
🧘‍♂️ Yoga/Tai Chi – These practices combine movement and breath, promoting vagus nerve activation.
👯‍♀️ Social Connections – Spend time with loved ones, hug, or engage in meaningful conversations.
🦠 Probiotics – A healthy gut supports vagus nerve function, so consider probiotic-rich foods.

Overall, the vagus nerve is a vital pathway that helps maintain balance and harmony within our body and mind, contributing to our overall health and well-being.

I met up with other fabulous Bowen therapists on Friday for a training day. In our association there are yearly requirements that we must follow to maintain our accreditation. It is also a great way to meet like minded people.
