Power Quotes From The Show

The Profound Effects Of Vagus Nerve Stimulation

 

"For acute stress situations, especially when people are really off balance, you actually will feel a more profound effect because you are so far in the sympathetic state that getting the vagus nerve to engage even a little is palpable. Normally, vagus nerve stimulation is pretty subtle like when you start with breathwork for the first time but as the brain recognizes what that relaxation feels like, it's so much easier to get there and stay there for a longer period of time because the brain is neuroplastic." - Ami Brannon

 

 

How Xen Is Helping Recovering Addicts

 

"People who are recovering from addiction, wherever they're at in their journey, are constantly dealing with something that is typically much deeper than a substance. So, the dependency came based on some event or psychological illness or a situation that they're in and a lot of it is stress-related. Once somebody has been through a detox period, staying in line with what is the best way to maintain recovery takes a lot of work but intentional self interventions and having tools in their toolbox are really important. When you have a mood lift, even a little bit, then you stop seeking solutions and things to push the pain or sadness down because you feel okay and feeling okay is a lot better than feeling rotten."  - Ami Brannon

 
 
 

Grow Your Somatic Intelligence With Xen

 
"Somatic intelligence is really being aware of what's going on in your body and paying attention to it. It's not as simple as something like recognizing that you have a stomach ache; it's about being aware of where you physically are such as at a family dinner, focusing where your head is at, how you literally feel in the moment, what your breath rate or heart rate is and if they're fast, asking yourself, 'Why? Why is this happening?' So, the 'What now?' is super important once you identify those things and that is one of the pinnacle things we wanted to address when we developed the Xen device. There are so many digital wearable devices out there that read and measure what's going on with you but we wanted to add to the 'Now what?' by giving people something simple that they could go to that is at their disposal at any time." - Ami Brannon
