Hey everyone - super great Live Webinar today - I will be attempting to post snippets of the Transcript - with any links below in the comments, so hopefully some of the people looking for specific topics can get their answers - first time trying that. We covered a lot today !! Answered so many question we didn't have any time for Ultrasound haha ! Here's the transcript posted: and then we'll do, gonna share my PowerPoint. Here it is, no audio, there we go. Okay, let me confirm that works, perfect. Okay, great, so I think a big point of this video just so you guys know kind of what you're in store for is to talk a little bit about the Vegas nerve, which is why we're all here. And then to talk about how ultrasound can stimulate the Vegas nerve. And what places on the body that you would wanna place it, left side of the neck, right side of the neck, spleen on the left side, colon on the right side, and then also direct you to, I get questions all the time. What if I did it here? What if I did this? What if I did that? And I go, that's a great question. I've likely already answered that question 'cause I've been doing Vegas nerve stimulation work for like eight years solid and my work in ultrasound is 13 years. So I've been working in ultrasound for 13 years now. I'm an old soul when it comes to this technology. So I know a lot about it. So I got a lot of questions and I'm gonna show you this cool thing called the search bar in Vegas Skool. Now I'm not trying to be patronizing, but you can understand. I get these questions a lot. They're very repetitive on Twitter. I know you guys can empathize with the plight of what I have to go through every day. And I have this, I shouldn't admit this 'cause I'm sure some people will take advantage of this. But if I have a question on Twitter from somebody that I don't even know with like an avatar that's just not even their face, it's like an anonymous account. And they ask me a question about ultrasound. I can't help but like wanna answer it.

Transcutaneous ultrasound applied to the abdomen is a precise method to modulate the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway. By targeting the subdiaphragmatic branches of the vagus nerve, this non-invasive approach directly inhibits pro-inflammatory cytokine production within the viscera. While traditional neuromodulation focuses on the cervical vagus nerve, abdominal stimulation provides direct access to the organs where systemic inflammation often originates. Recent clinical data demonstrate that focused ultrasound waves can significantly reduce circulating levels of inflammatory markers like TNF-alpha and IL-6. This technology offers a scalable, non-pharmacological alternative to invasive surgical implants or long-term immunosuppressant therapy. The clinical implications are profound for managing autoimmune conditions, Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), and metabolic disorders driven by chronic inflammation. Precision bioelectronic medicine is shifting from internal hardware to targeted, external acoustic energy to restore systemic homeostasis. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-019-08750-9 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5859128/ https://bioelecmed.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s42234-020-00037-y https://www.skool.com/vagus/major-breakthrough-an-easier-way-to-target-inflammation-effectively-through-abdomen

The vagus nerve, or Cranial Nerve X, is the longest and most complex component of the autonomic nervous system. Originating in the brainstem, it descends through the neck to innervate the heart, lungs, and digestive tract. Often called the "wandering nerve," this pathway serves as the primary driver of the parasympathetic system. It orchestrates the critical biological transition from high-alert states to rest, recovery, and digestion. Evolutionary biology explains its dual-branch architecture through Polyvagal Theory. The newer ventral branch facilitates social safety, while the ancient dorsal branch manages immobilization under extreme threat. Modern chronic stress frequently disrupts this delicate balance. Vagal dysregulation is a primary driver of systemic inflammation, gastrointestinal dysfunction, and clinical anxiety. Understanding this biological superhighway is essential for physiological self-regulation and resilience.

Could Vagus Nerve Stimulation prevent rapidly aging *brains*? This study seems to infer it's possible ! Recent research demonstrates that non-invasive transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) can reverse age-related memory decline by modulating the gut-brain axis. In 24-month-old mice, 30-minute daily taVNS treatments restored spatial and recognition memory to young-adult levels within four weeks. The discrimination index in recognition tasks effectively doubled, rising from 0.32 to 0.65. The mechanism involves a profound restructuring of the gut microbiome. Stimulation increased the abundance of beneficial *Akkermansia muciniphila* and *Lactobacillus* while reducing pro-inflammatory Proteobacteria. This microbial shift suppressed systemic inflammation, specifically lowering serum IL-6 and TNF-α. Concurrently, hippocampal growth factors BDNF and NGF increased, directly triggering neurogenesis and synaptic plasticity. Causality was confirmed via fecal microbiota transplantation. Recipients of "stimulated" microbiota exhibited the same memory gains as the original subjects, while subdiaphragmatic vagotomy neutralized all therapeutic benefits. These findings position taVNS as a viable, non-pharmacological pathway for rejuvenating the aging brain and preventing neurodegeneration through the body's internal interoceptive superhighway. https://med.stanford.edu/news/all-news/2026/03/gut-brain-cognitive-decline.html

The healthcare establishment wants you to believe that "clinical" results require a prescription or a surgical implant. They are gatekeeping your own biology. What if the headphones you use for podcasts are actually sophisticated medical tools? The vagus nerve is the master conductor of your parasympathetic tone. Most people think it requires invasive electrodes to truly activate. They are wrong. You can hack the brainstem through the auditory branch. By layering inspirational affirmations, music, walking while listening, and having fun you powerfully activate your Vagus Nerve. This isn’t "relaxing music." It is a precise frequency, neur0 linguistical priming protocol designed to elicit the release of acetylcholine. We are seeing 30% gains in Heart Rate Variability and the suppression of systemic inflammation—all within 60 minutes. The "Hour of Power" protocol uses spatial audio and infrasound to entrain the medulla, mimicking the effects of thousand-dollar clinical devices. Stop asking for permission to regulate your nervous system. The hardware is already on your head. Are you brave enough to use it? https://www.skool.com/vagus/huge-update-the-complete-hour-of-power-headphone-setup-class-is-now-live?p=ccddad4c
