Humans are designed to be calm and at ease in loving relationships with each other and their environment. For most of the history of humanity people lived in tribal communities in harmony with each other and nature. Living in seasonal cycles, sun & moon cycles, bathing, swimming , living with the tides and drinking healthy, alive water, kept our circadian rhythms in flow, keeping our nervous systems regulating and at optimum, allowing for repair and deep rest. This ideal environment of challenge, rest and natural cycles promoted the evolution of our mammalian brain and higher states of consciousness. With the onset of farming and mass food production, electricity, artificial light, pharmaceuticals, plastics in our food and water and now in our blood,  we started to lose the connection and the natural rebalancing flow. Now with EMFs, endless hours in front of screens, shift work, skipping naps, pushing through on caffeine, sugar and adrenaline, we are burning out as individuals, creating cellular dysfunction, cancer, auto-immune diseases, anxiety, and countless mental disorders, such that we believe ADHD, anxiety disorders, early Alzheimer's and autism spectrum disorder are the norm and to be expected.

​

Let's turn this trend around. Rebalance with nature. Begin with the breath.

​

No matter where we are , we have our breath. It's the most important tool of awareness.

​

The Vagal Yoga Healing System is a program designed to help the Vagal Nervous System be at ease, releasing held tension with gentle yoga movements, eye repatterning exercises and specialized breathing techniques.  It's easy to learn and practice.  People sleep more deeply and report relief with digestive problems, headaches and marked reduction in chronic pain and anxiety. Some people report all of their pain dissolving. Research shows that Vagal stimulation can reverse a

multitude of chronic illnesses including: Type 2 Diabetes, depression, autoimmune disorders and anxiety. Vagal Yoga activates the innate healing system and gently helps with trauma, creating the authentic experience of safety.

​

In our classes and retreats we  begin with gentle movements to unlock the dorsal vagal responses that create held tension in our bodies. Lateral bending, reclined twists, arm stretches on the wall, cranial compression, ventral vagal releases for the neck, eye repatterning exercises to release the amygdala, and breathing to reset the vagal system for long term results. People report being more relaxed with increases in range of motion and an overall feeling of wellness.
