The podcast is an excerpt from the book "The Vagus Nerve Reset" by Anna Ferguson. It's an exploration of the vagus nerve, a crucial part of the autonomic nervous system that plays a significant role in regulating stress, trauma, and anxiety. Ferguson, who suffered a severe roller coaster accident that damaged her vagus nerve, explains how the vagus nerve impacts our mental and physical well-being. She then introduces her own unique therapeutic approach, a blend of science-based practices and modalities, designed to help readers cultivate a healthier relationship with their bodies and nervous systems. The book's main focus is to equip readers with the tools and knowledge to manage stress, trauma, and anxiety, empowering them to reclaim a sense of safety, control, and resilience.
