The vagus nerve is the longest of the cranial nerves. Its functions contribute to the autonomic nervous system. These include sensory, motor and parasympathetic functions. Most notably, the vagus nerve affects blood pressure, heart rate, calmness, relaxation, alertness, and digestion. Moreover, of particular significance to health, one has to look at its role in inflammation. Mounting evidence suggests a common underlying cause of major degenerative diseases is inflammation. Observational studies and laboratory research suggests that inflammation can be a causative factor in many diseases. These include coronary disease, diabetes, cancer, colitis, Alzheimers, autoimmune disorders, just to name a few. Transdermal nerve stimulation with electroacupuncture is currently endorsed by WHO to control pain and inflammation. Furthermore, research shows that acupuncture can specifically stimulate the vagus nerve. Auricular or “ear acupuncture” and some body points are effective in stimulating this nerve. This can address healing such disorders as: • Depression • SIBO • Anxiety • Panic Attacks • Tinnitus • IBS • Weight Gain • Diabetes • Chronic Fatigue • Migraines • MS • Rheumatoid Arthritis Acupuncture can significantly modulate pro inflammatory cytokines, lessoning the inflammation response. In addition, Neuroimmunogenic regulation of inflammation further provides insights into studies on how brain activity affects mind body health. For instance, meditation has been reported to increase vagus nerve activity. This “wanderer” nerve that runs from your brain all the way to your gut is known as a remarkable internal sensory system. This system includes your emotions. “I felt it in my gut”, is derived from this. Science is just now starting to realize the importance of emotions on health. For any disease, for true healing to occur, the emotional undertone needs to be addressed. Working with the electrodynamic field, acupuncture and increasing vagus tone is a natural safe way to regulate emotions, specifically, suppressed emotions. This will lead to true health because all of the bodies: spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical have to be aligned. Many Blessings, Jennifer

Everything that is, is comprised of energy. Quantum changes at the subatomic level is what creates the chemistry of our body. What precisely causes quantum changes; emotions. We live in a society that is bombarded by the constant emotional stress of our lives or simply the collective conscious. Health in our bodies is alignment of body, mind, and soul. Knowing this, we must pay attention to how we feel. Our cells reflect how we feel. We want our cells to vibrate at a high frequency. If they vibrate at a high vibration, they will generate healthy cells. However, if we don't feel good or have continuous negative or suppressed emotions, illness can develop. This is what happens when someone gets cancer and it is cut out of the physical body and it returns. Furthermore, this is also why if we lose someone dear to us, at that exact time the following year, we could develop bronchitis, pneumonia, etc. The emotions correlated with the lungs is grief and our bodies have cellular memories. True healing must occur in the emotional body as well. It is important that we feel all emotions but not hold onto them. When the emotional body is cleared, the dis-ease cycle is interrupted and our body can return to homeostasis. Emotional negative thoughts is what causes physical pain. Physical pain is an emotional event, period. In addition, the persistent negative thoughts create resistance in the body reflected in the form or viruses, fatigue, depression, cancer, and many more debilitating diseases. Human emotion specifically changes the DNA in our body. There are many ways to bring emotions to the surface, some of these include; yoga, meditation, acupuncture, a raw food cleanse, and quantum energy healing. Quantum Energetic Disciplines works directly with the energy patterns that create our reality. These patterns record every experience, desire, belief and events. Quantum healing transforms those patterns and brings any suppressed emotions to the surface. When they are brought to the surface they can be released and allows the natural flow of energy (qi) in the body!! The secret to health that many are missing. "If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration."-Nikola Tesla Blessings, Jennifer Expounding on the basis that everything is energy, in 2007, I decided to explore this with food. I bought David Wolfe's book, "The Sunfood Diet Success System," and did a raw food cleanse for one month. The premise behind this vegan raw food diet (nothing cooked above 104 degrees) is that when you cook food you are essentially destroying the vitamins and minerals in it. In addition, when raw food was studied under kirlian photography, it seemed to have a greater energetic resonance. Therefore, raw food should vibrate at a higher rate than cooked food. Since humans are bio-electric beings this diet made sense to me. The results were palpable and here are some of the things that I experienced as a result of doing this cleanse and continuing to primarily eat this way.
http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2013/03/07/inflammation-triggers-disease-symptoms.aspx Diet is also a huge component in how we feel. Whole foods are the amino acid dietary precursors for neurotransmitter formation. When we eat the standard American diet of processed foods we are not receiving these essential amino acids. In addition, we are not receiving vitamins and minerals so our bodies are continuously hungry. When you eat a diet full of vitamins and minerals your body will be satiated and this will not lead to overeating that is so prevalent in our society. Below I have listed some resources if you would like to incorporate more raw foods into your diet. Some of my favorite books for raw food recipes: The Sunfood Diet Success System -David Wolfe The Complete Book of Raw Food-Julie Rodwell Raw The Uncook Book-Juliano If you are not vegan, Carol Alt has these 4 books out. She is a raw foodist that eats meat and dairy. A Healthy You-Carol Alt Eating in the Raw-Carol Alt The Raw 50-Carol Alt Easy Sexy Raw-Carol Alt My favorite youtube resources are: dara-I love this channel. She has some great tonic elixirs that balance out the cold nature of raw food. Longevity Now FullyRawKristina "Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food" -Hippocrates Happy Eating!!! Jennifer The quick pulse, founded by the prominent healer, spiritual teacher Jo Dunning, is a quantum energy technique that uses source energy to rapidly balance any aspect of the mind, body, and spirit. This healing process can also clear limiting beliefs, low self-esteem, physical conditions, unwanted personality traits, phobias, abundance issues and many other limiting experiences. I was trained by her several years ago and one way I use this work in my practice is to change subconscious beliefs. Negative thoughts and beliefs that are formed especially during the formative years are stored in our subconscious mind. These are often affecting our lives now. We are actually operating from the subconscious mind most of the time. The result is living a life not always congruent with our creative conscious mind. This mind ruling the show often leads to addictions, stress, and low self worth issues affecting all levels of our lives. I personally believe that a vast majority of health related issues have an underlining emotional issue. These first manifest in the emotional body and then will surface in the physical body if the issue is not addressed. For instance, cancer is often repressed resentment or anger, low back pain is often fear of lack of money, and knee pain is reluctance to moving forward in one area of life. In addition, I have found this work to be beneficial in working with fertility patients. If someone believes they can't get pregnant, won't be a good mom, can't afford to have children, too old to have children, etc., they will have difficulty conceiving. One main job of the subconscious is to keep you safe. If the subconscious mind believes an experience might jeopardize your safety, it will keep that experience from you. Our body is our internal guidance system always trying to communicate with us. When we are in pain, fatigued, anxious, depressed, the answer always lies within and seldom cured by taking a medication. Ask your body what it is trying to convey to you. Do the inner work of clearing subconscious beliefs. There are numerous methods to do this, a few examples are:
