The Vagus Nerve and Your Health
Hey there, thank you for dropping by and learning more about the vagus nerve.
Here is your vagus nerve checklist (and some extra value below too!).
Your free vagus nerve checklist is here!
What does your vagal tone score even mean?
High vagal tone = excellent stress resilience, generally great health, typically happy and well balanced
Low vagal tone = lowered stress resilience, lowered immune function, possibly more trauma (or the lack of ability to process experiences)

Understand yourself on a deeper level
I know you’ve probably been wondering if I work with adults too [it’s my most common question tbh, because I speak so much about kids], and the answer is a wholehearted YES. I was once an adult with a vagus nerve issue, with nervous system dysregulation, and with nobody who understood. So I’m here to say where you are right now? It makes sense - and it will make SO MUCH SENSE once you’ve watched this webinar.
Take a watch / listen to my free webinar all about the vagus nerve and your health.

I love helping people make things ‘click’, in terms of their health, or their experience of the world.
There is so much we can do to tend to our vagus nerve but I wholeheartedly promise it’s not as simple as adding in some vagus nerve exercises that you find on TikTok! If it were that simple, I’d be out of a job.
You’ll be receiving emails from me with more information on the nervous system, and I’d love to hear how you go with them!
Hi I’m Carrie!
I’m a chiropractor, applied kinesiologist and vagus nerve educator with a special interest in treating the vagus nerve in adults and children alike.
I’ve been practising chiropractic for over 15 years, and am Perth’s only integrative neuroimmunology trained practitioner.
On top of that I am a HeartMath-certified practitioner, and use all of these tools combined to care for my clients in person.
I understand what it feels like to have physical or emotional struggles, and feel unable to shift them (not for lack of trying).
I once had such a dysregulated nervous system that I could barely function. And after chasing all the supplements and diets (and more), I discovered the vagus nerve.
And this, this lived experience, has given me the passion to support others in finding balance in their own nervous systems.
Sometimes, no matter what you try - there’s something missing and you need to call in specialist help and support - and I’ve got some offers below for you to get the ball rolling.
I’d love to see you expand your window of tolerance, and really be able to embrace life (whatever that looks like for you).
Want to jump straight into some regulation support?
We all know that stress can take over our bodies, and run the show pretty quickly.
And maybe you’re here because you already know that your vagus nerve, or ability to regulate your stress response, is part of the issue.
Your nervous system is designed to be flexible.
We aren’t here to avoid all stress, or uncomfortable feelings.
We are here to move through the stress response, recognise it as an innate protective response, and move back into regulation.
When we are stuck in chronic stress? Well that’s where we start to see the wheels fall off.
Introducing The Vagus Nerve Tools Bundle
This bundle includes two of my regulating tools that work perfectly together - the Vagus Nerve Library and the Nervous System Digital Journal.
These two tools when used in conjunction can help you regulate your nervous system and keep track of how you are going.
If you allow it, they will help you dive deeply into your daily nervous system regulation abilities, and work out the root causes of why you feel dysregulated. It can help you understand how your body and your emotions are linked, and make a compassionate plan to support your nervous system.
What you get in the bundle:
The Vagus Nerve Library
One of the most common questions I get asked is how to stimulate the vagus nerve.
While there is so much work we can do on the vagus nerve, these exercises are a really good starting point - especially if you are not sure if your vagus nerve needs work or if your nervous system is out of balance.
Which is why I created this video series!
These exercises will help you understand your nervous system and give you practical step by step instruction on how to stimulate your vagus nerve.
You can access the videos at any time and learn the techniques at your own pace. The exercises are simple and will only take no more than ten minutes out of your day.

2. The Nervous System Digital Journal
After years of working with clients on their emotional regulation, I wanted to share my favourite reflection tools. I created these journal/reflection activities as a way to support my clients.
I'm now sharing these journal prompts with you, so that I can help more people understand their nervous systems on a deeper level.

10 reflection activities to help you understand your nervous system
Ability to print these pages as you require, or use on a device if you prefer digital journal entries
Minimalistic design, so that we aren't taking away from the power of the inner work
The most powerful questions that I ask my clients, that create the biggest shifts
-
you are in burn out
you are struggling with chronic stress
you are wanting to understand yourself more
you are wanting to work on improving your nervous system function
On any given day, choose the activity that calls you the most, and start reflecting. Print what you like and create a little workbook. I've left dates to be marked, and pages digital so you only use what you need.
While I could have added additional 'self care lists', we all know what we SHOULD be doing to care for ourselves more. But when we are stuck in survival, it feels impossible. These reflection questions support you in moving from survival mode to regulated, and motivated to care for your mental and physical health more.
This is for PERSONAL USE ONLY - not for commercial use, or use with your own coaching clients. Please reach out if you would like to use these in your practice (and we can personalise them for you).
