Easy vagus nerve exercise to calm the nervous system and lower tension in the neck and shoulders
This is one of my favorite exercises to help calm the nervous system by directly affecting the vagus nerve and lower tension in the neck and shoulders and increase neck mobility.
You can easily do this with your clients in the supine position and teach it to them as a self-care technique.
