In this video, Dr. Ruscio discusses 6 powerful tools to reset and calm a dysregulated nervous system. The tools he discusses include vagus nerve stimulation via the ear, resonance breathing, electrolytes / sodium optimization, a vibration tool called Apollo Neuro, an audio-visual stimulation device called BrainTap, and grounding. Each tool offers a uniquely beneficial input into the nervous system to help restore a healing, parasympathetic state.
