Trauma Recovery Process

3 🧠 Tools for Recovery 👇🏻

Here are three neuroscience-backed tools to activate your parasympathetic nervous system and reclaim your peace.

First, try the Vagus Nerve Sing-Along. Singing, humming, or chanting stimulates the vagus nerve, the highway of your parasympathetic system, helping to calm your body.

It’s not about talent—just feel the soothing vibrations in your chest as your nervous system thanks you.

Next, dive into cold therapy with a splash of ice water on your face or a quick cold shower.

This activates the dive reflex, slowing your heart rate and signaling safety to your brain.

Finally, practice the 3-5-7 Breath Ladder: inhale for 3 seconds, hold for 5, and exhale for 7, repeating for five rounds.

Long exhales tell your nervous system, “We’re safe now.”
