we are not meant to like everything

Or everyone

And these preferences can change over time

Recently, hanging out with friends

The convo turned to comparing alcohol
with Gummies
with other things that detour the brain (and offer high dopamine reward)

I had the thought

Why do we need or think we need
To change our consciousness?

What are they/we trying to flee from?

My brain still offers all manner of detours!

But 4 years into having a life coach

The offer is less frequent
Less intense

My skill at having conversations with myself
Knowing (because I ask) the why of my choices
continues to improve ☺️

the vagus nerve is the largest in our body

it controls much of how we move and FEEL

this simple breathing technique can:

1. lower blood pressure
2. decrease inflammation
3. promote feelings of comfort and well being

all this by nourishing the vagus nerve meaning it aligns our sympathetic (fight and flight system) with our parasympathetic (calm, relaxed) nervous system

in our evolutionary history, we would invoke the sympathetic nervous system to gather food or hunt for it. This would be followed by a period of relaxation where the parasympathetic nervous system is invoked. In our current society and civilization, we tend to live in a ratio of more sympathetic than parasympathetic tone. This leads to a lot of the problems I see as a doctor such as high blood pressure and when it comes to inflammation, this is the cause of many chronic illnesses, including depression, diabetes, strokes, heart attacks.

Look forward to more simple tools I will share on nourishing our vagus nerve.
