Vagus Nerve: Mediating the Mind-Body Connection with Dr. Peter Staats
Today I’m talking nerdy with Dr. Peter Staats about all things Vagus Nerve. In this episode we’re diving into what the vagus nerve is, why it’s such a buzz word in the modern wellness community, the role that it plays in regulating physical, mental, and emotional health, how it mediates the mind-body connection, and the differences between stimulating the vagus nerve electrically vs. manually with things like breath work, repetitive movement, and cold water exposure.
Dr. Staats completed his residency and fellowship training at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, where he also received his MBA. He is internationally recognized for his work developing a unified theory of pain, inventing, developing, and implementing minimally invasive procedures and therapeutics for chronic pain, COVID, as well as other medical disorders. In 2004 he co founded electroCore, a company devoted to health and wellness benefits of stimulating the vagus nerve. He is currently Founder and Chair of the Vagus Nerve Society.
Dr. Staats has numerous patents, written or co-edited 14 books and over 500 articles, abstracts, monographs, and book chapters on pain medicine and neuromodulation. His work has been highlighted on Good Morning America, CBS Evening News, Newsweek, and CNN.
