The Basic Exercise by Stanley Rosenberg

The Basic Exercise described in this video is from “The Healing Power of the Vagus Nerve” by Stanley Rosenberg
This exercise (when performed regularly) would help most people move from a state of stress or shut down to a more calm, healthy and functional state of the nervous system. This simple exercise repositions the 1st and 2nd cervical (neck) vertebrae, increases mobility in the neck and the entire spine and thus increases blood flow to the brain stem where the cranial nerves (necessary for optimal function) originate. It is effective, easy to learn and easy to do and takes just 2 minutes to complete.
