The Vagus Nerve Reset

by Dr. Kim Lye

Welcome to The Vagus Nerve Reset. This course is designed for anyone who feels constantly “on,” tense, overwhelmed, or stuck in stress. If you struggle with tightness in your jaw, neck, chest, or belly, shallow breathing, poor sleep, digestive discomfort, or a stress response that won’t fully switch off, this journey will support you. You will learn what the vagus nerve is, why it plays such a central role in stress, healing, and emotional regulation, and how to work with it directly through simple, guided somatic practices. Each session focuses on releasing tension patterns held in the body and gently shifting you out of fight, flight, or freeze and into repair. These are practical tools you can return to anytime, giving you techniques to regulate your nervous system long after the course is complete. This is not about forcing yourself to relax. It is about teaching your body how to feel safe again. By the end of the course, you can expect to feel more grounded, more informed, and more confident in your ability to calm and support your nervous system whenever you need it.
