In this clip, Dr. Jamnadas explains how the vagus nerve helps regulate the balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems and why that balance matters for heart health. He discusses how chronic stress, inflammation, and modern lifestyle habits may disrupt vagus nerve function and contribute to irregular heart rhythms. He also shares how practicing silence can help calm the mind, support parasympathetic activity, and bring the body back toward a state of rest and recovery.
