Yoga Therapy to Reduce Stress and Tone t...

Dr. Wendy Myers
About this episode

Imagine a yoga class that's not just about stretching and poses, but truly focuses on doing each movement correctly, breathing right, and understanding the techniques to reduce stress and tone the vagus nerve. 

Sounds different, right? That's exactly what Doris Puehringer offers with her unique approach to yoga therapy.

As you get older, maintaining balance, strength, and flexibility becomes crucial, not just for physical well-being, but also for managing stress levels. Did you know that chronic stress can have a detrimental effect on your vagus nerve function? That's where Doris's yoga therapy comes in.

Doris's classes are unlike anything you'll ever try. They're detailed, therapeutic, and exactly what you need in this stressful world. Her techniques are designed to help you relax, unwind, and stimulate your vagus nerve for optimal health benefits.

As you get older, maintaining balance, strength, and flexibility becomes crucial. Did you know that one-third of falls in older adults are fatal? That's no joke.

If you are looking for better ways to stay healthy, active, and stress-free, yoga therapy should be a key part of your strategy, and you should try it. 

So go ahead and listen to this episode as Doris shares practical tips that will empower you to take charge of your health, reduce stress, and live your best life through yoga therapy focused on the vagus nerve.
