Reject body stigma and shaming!

The vagus nerve is a primary carrier of information describing the state of the body to the brain, and transmitting information from the brain back to the body. It’s a feedback mechanism which is responsible for maintaining homeostasis for many of our vital organs and brain/body functions. Research over the past few decades shows that the vagus plays a key role in managing our levels of stress as well as our body’s inflammation; in this age of stress- and inflammation-related disease, it is perhaps the most important nerve in the body for us to be paying attention to.

Come learn more about the vagus nerve on our website, and register for the 2025 PVI International Gathering, The Vagus Nerve: A Path to Wellness, happening this fall, Oct 31-Nov 2, live in-person and online.
Tickets are still available!
