The Cindy Locher Show

In this podcast I explore one of my favorite topics to cover with clients – the power of the Vagus Nerve, what it is and what it does, and how you may be unintentionally reducing its ability to calm your heart and mind.

In today’s podcast we will learn:

1. How your Vagus nerve connects your brain with your heart, gut, and all your internal organs and serves as “the captain” of your parasympathetic nervous system-which is your body’s natural relax, rebuild, and repair response team.
2. How proper functioning of your Vagus nerve keeps chronic inflammation in check, putting the brakes on all major diseases and regulates your heart beat, maximizing heart rate variability which is a major marker for heart health.
3. A simple exercise that will both immediately trigger the Vagus Nerve to calm your body and mind, and which will actually “tone up” your Vagus Nerve over time to help keep you calmer, naturally.

Listen in as Dan, a past client of Cindy's at ChangeWorks Hypnosis Center in Apple Valley, MN, discusses his history with 9 years of crippling anxiety, and how he finally succeeded (after "trying everything") in overcoming his anxiety.

Here's a hypnosis session to help you begin to accept yourself, just as you are, and to accept the world around you, for what it is. So much struggle that people feel comes from trying to change things that you don't have control of. As the saying goes, "change what you can change, and accept what you cannot change." This is not about condoning things that are hurtful and wrong to yourself and others, but learning to accept yourself and your life as fundamentally whole and good; to appreciate what is beautiful in and around you. Enjoy!

Many people don't realize the full potential of their lives because they don't follow through on the commitments they make. If you could follow through on a greater percentage of your commitments, what difference would that make in your life?

Think now back to a commitment you made in the past and didn't follow through on. One that would have made a difference in your life, perhaps in the lives of others. Now imagine how your life would be different if you'd followed through and made that commitment a reality!

The following program is about how to make commitments the right way, so that you have a much greater likelihood of following through to completion, and the hypnosis session at the end anchors in that desire to follow through! Enjoy!

Are you a perfectionist? Is it in a good place in your life, or has it become a problem? Are you experiencing any of the following:

Analysis paralysis, the procrastination or inability to take action for fear that you won't be able to do it well enough?

Low self esteem because your efforts never live up to your expectations?

Damaged relationships because others can't live up to your standards?

Perfectionism is a predictor of clinical depression, anxiety, and other issues. But the good news is guess what? It is a LEARNED behavior and it can be CHANGED!

If you're ready to start cutting yourself, and others, some slack, you'll take a lot away from this 1 hour teleseminar. A list of resources and references is available below, and are referenced in the audio.
