INTEROCEPTION, SENSING SELF, THE VAGUS NERVE...
Wow. this episode contains so much extremely clearly presented and easy to follow information and pragmatic, cost frees things we can do... this should be shown in every school, everywhere!
Quote of the episode "actually most of the time, the vagus nerve is stimulatory, when you ingest food, the vagus nerve gets activated, triggers the release of dopamine, and makes you more alert. and go seek more. When you have a fever, it is rarely calming, when you feel nauseous, it is rarely calming. It is not a calming system, it is a communication system. Stress shutdowns the vagus nerve, blocks communication between gut and brain... The vagus nerve is responsible for emotion..."
