When stress hits suddenly—mentally or physically—your nervous system needs a fast, reliable reset. In this calming practice, Brain Education Instructor Brittany Rega guides you through a seated vagus nerve activation routine designed to bring instant calm, release stored tension, and reconnect your body and mind.
Using slow, intentional arm movements, breath regulation, chest opening, and grounding gestures, this practice helps discharge emotional and physical stress held in the chest, shoulders, and abdomen. With repeated practice, it supports long-term nervous system regulation and a deeper sense of inner stability.
This routine is especially helpful during moments of overwhelm, emotional buildup, anxiety, or when you need to reset your energy quickly and safely.
