15-Minute Guided Meditation to Reset Your Nervous System
Join me for a 15-minute guided meditation to reset your nervous system through some simple techniques that tone the vagus nerve. You can practice this guided meditation seated or lying down. You'll be placing your hands on different parts of your body and breathing easily. Over-the-ear headphones will make the first part of this meditation difficult to practice, so I recommend no headphones or using earbuds. No prior meditation or yoga experience required. Practice anytime you would like to quickly calm or balance your mind and body.

Lots of changes, lots of stress. Overstimulated nervous system. This was different than other videos. Plenty of space between instructions. Soothing voice. Feeling so much better.

I have been meditating for years but with 5 chronic health conditions I am often stuck in fight or flight. My holistic gp asked me to focus more on my meditation and lowering my stress as much as possible. Today was the 2nd day in a row I've done your meditation and it's by far had the biggest impact on my stress levels. Thank you ❤️

I have attempted to meditate many times in my life and prior to this CD the only success I've experienced is with live guided meditation. kzread.infoUgkxzpa8CIfZcihW4Z0F_ja0QF3W9KIatrsq This is the first CD I've used that cuts through my unmedicated ADHD and enables me to truly relax and experience a quiet and energizing interval. The instructors voice is very soothing and pleasant to listen to. I am easily able to sit successfully through the entire CD, and for quite some time after. I cannot adequately express how tremendously helpful this CD has been on my spiritual journey!! Two thumbs up and 10 stars!

I read recently about symptoms of a deregulated nervous system and it described the way I have been feeling since covid so I decided to give this a try. I found it hard to focus in the first half because I don't really meditate but. Gradually I started to focus more and the heavy weight on my chest started to ease until near the end when I literally just burst into tears. What a wild experience

As a full time caregiver for my dear mom going on 8 years after her massive stroke left her paralyzed it’s imperative that I make time to recover on all levels. I found the space in between instructions very effective, her voice soothing and I definitely felt the tension leave my body from areas that were tight.I’ll definitely be back. Thank you 💖🙏💖
Lovely! I suffer from cptsd, M.E., & fibromyalgia, & often have what i call the inner shakes, esp upon waking in the morning, & i find it hard to swtch off for sleep at night. This is such a relaxing meditation for both the beginning & end of the day. I've done many different ones but this one really helps. I like the soothing voice, clear instructions with time in between, no annoying music, & just the right length. Thank you so much for this.

Then next thing I know I was kicked out of whatever sleep stage I was in when I heard your voice say to open eyes when ready. I seriously thought “what? Where did I go?” Lol. Most likely it’s cause I was lying down and it’s bed time. But I’ll have to do this again a different time to see how that changes my experience. That being said, I enjoyed it.
