Vagus Nerve SCM Neck Practice

This practice is from Stanley Rosenberg in his book, Accessing the Healing Power of the Vagus Nerve. It releases the SCM(sternocleidomastoid) muscles in the sides of the neck. The SCM may be chronically tight or loose adding to the stress state in your nervous system. This improves the range of motion as you turn your head, eases a stiff neck, and helps to prevent migraines. Engaging the SCM releases the Vagus Nerve aiding in bringing calm and ease into your body.

Such a nice release! I love your cal voice and will definitely check into more of your vagus nerve routines. Thank you 🙏

I didn't realize how tight my neck was until this exercise relaxed it.

Wow-I can really feel the difference. I’m going to get out my mat and do this regularly. Thank you

I do think this has loosened my neck a little and I need to repeat +++. Thank you x

Lovely! It felt weird at first but I’m going to keep doing this on a regular basis. Thank you! 🥰🙌
