Hey sorry !!! I have the mp3 here now https://www.skool.com/vagus/classroom/7b29343d?md=136b47c8fd76493cac207e27b5e67dd7 I forgot my old Google Drive so some of the links are not working , :(( But this mp3 does work !!

@Anke Bohmer No they are different. Hour of Power is an audio. Ultra Priming is a video - that's completely insane and amazing, they are different. Ultra Priming is one of my masterpieces :)

Cheers ! Welcome - We are open to whatever tools gets the best results, and I've been *in* VNS tech since 2017, and I've tried electrical ear clip systems, and Ultrasound, and have worked with over 1000 individuals (I worked as a full-time VNS coach for many, many years) And yes, Ultrasound is better as of today. That can always change tho ! What I also like about the Ultrasound is a US-1000 is only $54 USD - so it's quite easy to get and to try ! And it's a darn good tool to have on hand. Hope that helps !

Your Vagus Nerve Is Not Just a Wire Part 2 of a three-part series on distributed biological intelligence. If you've encountered the vagus nerve at all, it was probably in a wellness context — breathwork, cold plunges, "vagal tone." That framing makes it sound like a single dial you can tune. The reality is messier and, I think, much more interesting. The vagus is the tenth cranial nerve and the longest of them. It exits the skull at the base, runs through the neck, and branches extensively into the heart, the lungs, the larynx, the liver, the pancreas, the spleen, and almost the whole digestive tract. It is the body's main interoceptive cable — the channel through which the brain finds out what's going on inside the rest of you. Two facts about it deserve attention. The first is that the vagus is overwhelmingly a sensory nerve. About four out of every five fibers carry information up to the brain, not commands down to the body. The "80% afferent" figure that gets quoted in textbooks is a little fuzzy — it traces back to a 1957 paper on cats, and recent careful counts in human cervical vagus tissue give numbers in the low 70s — but the headline holds: this nerve is mostly listening. The second fact is more surprising. Until quite recently, the standard estimate for how many fibers a human cervical vagus contains was 100,000 or more. That number is in a lot of review papers. It also appears to be wrong. When researchers count the fibers directly using modern immunohistochemistry, the actual count is something like 25,000 per side, give or take. Tens of thousands. Not a hundred thousand. This matters because the body is sending those tens of thousands of fibers to monitor a vast amount of territory. The gut alone has billions of nerve endings. The lungs and heart have their own dense sensor populations. If you add up everything the vagus is responsible for sensing, you get a compression ratio on the order of a thousand to one. There is far, far more information being generated in the body than there are channels to carry it.

The Gut-Brain Conversation, and Who's Actually Doing the Talking Part 3 of a three-part series on distributed biological intelligence. You've definitely seen the headlines. "Your gut bacteria control your mood." "The microbiome is your second brain." "Probiotics for anxiety." There is something real underneath all this, and there is also a lot of noise, and the difference matters. Let's start with what's actually in your gut. Lining the walls of your digestive tract, from the esophagus all the way down, is a network of neurons called the enteric nervous system. The standard estimate is somewhere between 200 and 600 million neurons — a range that reflects how genuinely hard these counts are to make rather than scientific disagreement about the basic picture. Either way, your gut has its own brain, in the sense that it can run most of the basic machinery of digestion without any input from the actual brain. Cut the vagus and your stomach still empties; the bowel still moves food along. Then there are the bacteria. Trillions of them, organized into a community whose composition shifts with what you eat, when you sleep, what stress you're under, and whether you're taking antibiotics. The microbiome produces an enormous range of chemicals: short-chain fatty acids, neurotransmitter precursors, immune-active compounds, and a variety of other metabolites. Some of these can affect the brain. Here's where the popular framing gets ahead of the evidence. Microbes, by themselves, do not have a nervous system. They don't have synapses or coordination. They can't "decide" anything in any meaningful sense. What they can do is produce chemicals. Whether and how those chemicals affect your brain depends entirely on what the rest of your body does with them. The gut has to detect them. Some kind of structured signal has to be sent. The brain has to receive that signal in a usable form. This is where the vagus and the enteric nervous system come back in. They are the translation layer.

@Tunie Harris No, SGB is putting numbing agents in. The above clinical trial is placing a "stem cell" esque peptide into the Vagus Nerve to help the Microtubules stabilize. It's a whole new type of therapy !
