Call me crazy, but naturally empathetic people tend to have more digestive issues in general. I think it's easy to internalize a lot. I didn't realize this until seeing it in my daughter.

I would love to see a video on the vagus nerve and heart rate variability. Very interesting

How long can it take to tone the vagus nerve enough to get rid of slow gut motility!

I had a neck injury that gave me cervical imbalance and degenerated my vagus nerve and hence I have GI issues. Love that someone finally talked about both issues together! LOVE.

Yeah; the heart rate variability video would be awesome.

Listening to psychology in relationships transformed me in 1 week. But i had to revive this knowledge after 1 year. It changed me. I cut off many friends and some family members. It helped me a lot with overall general anxiety.

Narcissists
Empaths
Codependency
Trauma bonding

I hope this helps anyone. Gratitude was not the root cause for me.

acupuncture helped with my anxiety & obsessive behavior (ocd). noticed it after my 6th session.
it really does move around the gut, and u feel u need to the toilet. it balances the body, and some how the blood sugar gets balanced even after you stop, i dont need to eat every 3-4 hours, and i can fast for 8-24h which i couldn’t before.
if you have hot flushes men or women (feeling over heat or cold )in the body, acupuncture can definitely help.

I am grateful for your channel and the effort you put into it :)

@SuzanMiller-ou5kq 1 year ago

Im thankful I found your channel. I have so many issues with my intestinal and gut health. I am in a very high stress environment and the past ten months have been brutal. I wish I had found you months ago. I have made the connection that stress has caused all this. Because of all my health problems I am pretty much bedridden which sucks because I have been a very healthy person all my life. I am 66. One day at a time and hopefully I will learn, apply and heal from your knowledge and recommendations. Thank you with all my heart ❤

Thank you soooo much for educating us, Dr Nicole! You ( and drs like you) are our only hope, and we’re all rather desperate! Most GI drs just don’t know. So grateful Dr Nicole, please keep helping us!?!

Yes, please do a Video on HRV and the vagus nerve

@scoot_jess 3 years ago

Did you do a video on vagus nerve and heart rate? I have gut bloating which causes palpitations for days at a time, and on and off for weeks and months..... Your info on vagal tone sounds spot on.... I have been very miserable for months and have had a palpitation and indigestion flare up to coincide.
