This is pretty cool. My 10:15 am client sent this Oura ring data after her visit. Do you see that her ‘nap’ happened 1 minute into the session, yet we were holding a quiet conversation?

When 2 hearts meet, nervous systems calm ❣️

Why Hugging
Heart-to-Heart
Matters

A heart-to-heart hug isn’t just comforting ~it’s regulating.

Hugging on the left side brings both hearts closer together, increasing shared sensory input through pressure, warmth, and rhythm.

Our Breathing slows
Heart rhythms soften
Nervous systems begin to
co-regulate

What’s happening in the body?

• Stress hormones decrease
• Oxytocin (the bonding hormone)
increases
• Vagal tone is supported through
signals of safety and connection

In simple terms:

Both bodies recognize the
closeness as safe~
and respond by settling

My friend Nancy sent this short interview with Oprah about Anxiety.

My thoughts:

1. Yes please replace the ‘I have anxiety’ with ‘I’m feeling anxious

What can I tone/strengthen to decrease these sensations?

ps. Mel Robbins was incorrect about 2 things:

2. The Vagus Nerve does not start at our seat and go to the top of our heads. It starts in the brainstem above the base of the skull and travels around the throat below the ears and downward to the organs. Longest nerve in the body. Vagus = Wandering

3. There is no ‘on off’ switch for the vagus nerve or nervous system. Just toning and regulation
