The Truth About Vagus Nerve Theory (Most Therapies Get This Wrong)

A lot of people are searching for the Vagus Nerve Theory because they feel anxious, stressed, or like their nervous system is broken.
If you want to understand what’s really happening—and actually fix the root cause—book a session with me today.

In this short video, I’ll explain why the vagus nerve isn’t damaged at all—it’s doing exactly what it was designed to do.

The vagus nerve is simply a communication highway between your brain and your body. When you shift into a positive memory, your body responds instantly—not because your nerve was “reset,” but because your mind changed the signal.

Most therapies focus on calming symptoms, but they never change the real cause: memory, trauma, and emotional conditioning. When you update what’s stored in the mind, the body naturally becomes calm and regulated.

That’s what FasterEFT is about—real change from the inside out.

3) Key points (numbered)
1. The vagus nerve is an “information highway” between brain and body—not something that’s “broken.”
2. A positive memory can quickly change how your body feels (because the brain is changing the signal).
3. Many models assume “the body isn’t acting right” and the nervous system needs a reset or co-regulation.
4. Stress and anxiety aren’t caused by a broken vagus nerve—they’re often tied to what’s held in memory.
5. Somatic/vagus exercises can help you feel better short-term, but may not change the root cause.
6. The root cause is memory: experiences, beliefs, references, trauma, fears, worries.
7. The “problem” often isn’t the symptom (like weight gain); the symptom can be an expression/solution.
8. PTSD is not only what happened—it’s what the brain internalized and how it signals through the body.
9. Change the memory → change the mind-body communication → the body calms down.
10. Neuroplasticity is the path: change your mind, and life follows what you change it to.
