Calming Anxiety
About this episode
Are you feeling physically burnt out, with a racing heart or tight chest, even though you’re trying to relax? This is not a failure of your mind; it is a biological "fight or flight" response.
In this session, Clinical Hypnotherapist Martin guides you through a powerful Somatic Nervous System Reset—a physiological approach to turning off the body’s alarm switch.Instead of just "watching" your thoughts, we will use active biological tools to signal safety directly to your Vagus Nerve.

This session is perfect for moments of high stress, panic attacks, or when you feel "wired but tired."🎧 How to use this session:
  • 00:45 The Physiological Sigh: Learn the fastest biological hack to offload CO2 and instantly lower your heart rate.
  • 02:00 Pendulation Technique: A trauma-informed tool to move your focus safely between tension and neutral "safety anchors" in the body.
  • 05:00 Vagus Nerve Stimulation: We use the "Voo" sound vibration to physically massage the Vagus nerve and activate your parasympathetic (rest and digest) system.
  • 09:20 The Safety Seal: A final grounding technique to lock in the feeling of safety before you return to your day.
