Vagus Nerve Massage For Stress And Anxiety Relief
Rewire Your Brain & Balance Your Energy
Bi-lateral stimulation helps the brain to process stress. If you go for a walk you may have experienced how this helps you get clear on a problem or how it uplifts your mood. Let your mind be as it is while you walk. Release any goals and feel the sensations of the walk as thoughts, sensations and emotions come and go. In this process you may end up crying, getting clear on a issue or gaining a greater sense of contentment.
Follow this with any of the exercises in this presentation that help you including the triple warmer exercise.
New Neural Networks and Cellular Communication
Neurons that fire together get wired together as neural networks in the brain. When you saver sensations related to such things as relief, joy, accomplishment, and contentment you help to wire these as networks. As you continue to marinate in the sensations these networks become stronger and more available.
Savoring the sensations also helps your cells to know how you want to create yourself. This bountiful meditation is best to do in the moment you are experiencing the greatest intensity of sensation you wish to grow such as joy or calm. The key is to savor it for at least 10 seconds while you are in the experience and then bring up the activating situation and savor the sensations for at least 10 seconds prior to going to sleep and upon waking, everyday, for three weeks. This is also an excellent meditation to do with the new neural networks established during a Transgenerational Clearing session.
Conscious Gentle Eating
Slow down, feel the sensation of the support underneath you and savor the flavor and textures of your food to help your nervous system wire or use those pleasure pathways of thriving. Stop eating when you are 70-80% full knowing you can always come back for more later. If this is difficult, savor a warm 8 oz cup of your favorite tea or hot cocoa made with nut milk or a tablespoon of goat yogurt (sweeten with monk fruit or stevia). Breathing in and out of your nose comfortably into your belly supports conscious eating.
Lymphatic Support
Take the time to dry brush your body prior to your shower or bath while you send love to every part of your body. If there is a place you find difficult to love send appreciation for what it does for you and what it communicates. If you forget, dry off with a wash cloth moving it in the directions demonstrated by Dr Mindy Beck, ND. Give yourself at least 7-10 minutes to do this meditation. This can energize or relax your nervous system depending on your application and who you are. Applying the hydrotherapy with at least 10 seconds of cool water (no more than 30 seconds) at the end of your shower is helpful. If you like the hydrotherapy you can go back and forth from warm to cold at least 3 times. Lastly, put a filter on your shower head so you do not expose yourself to chlorine, fluoride or other highly toxic chemicals commonly used in public water supplies.
Lymphatic Massage
This massage is important to promote relaxation as well as drainage. You can do this massage any time of day. Some have found it helps with knee or ankle discomfort or limited mobility.
Here is a lymphatic exercise you can do outside while earthing. This 5 minute exercise with Donna Eden helps the lymphatic system and energy levels.
The Sonic Slider Tuning Fork + Circuit Boot
Check with your doctor for treatment time and where to apply. Normal used for lymphatic drainage. Click here for information.
Castor Oil Packs to boost Immune System, Liver and Bowels
Apply a thin layer of castor oil topically over the liver (upper right side of abdomen) once daily at bedtime - five days per week or what your doctor recommends. Information and demonstration.
Manual liver and gallbladder compressions to increase drainage (you can do this when you apply the castor oil).

Mast Cell Activation Syndrome Support
If we have a history of chronic reactions such as seasonal allergies or illness, we can develop a way of thinking that supports the very problem we are afraid of. When we see something like pollen, mold, a tick, or anything else that has caused past symptoms we can easily induce past symptoms by assuming it will initiate another reaction. The mind can amplify, create, and hijack the situation. This reaction can amplify the sympathetic nervous system causing stress that initiates the actual problem. Using Transgenerational clearings, we can often mitigate these patterns. Programs such as Dynamic Neural Retraining or The Gupta Program can support a new energy field where our brains maintain a non-reactive state.
If you are dealing with chronic illness such as toxic mold exposure, chronic fatigue syndrome, long haul Covid or Lyme you may find the above helpful as well as physical support with vitamin C, vitamin d, alpha lipoic acid, green tea, turmeric, flavonoids, alkaloids, essential fatty acids, Lion's name, elderberry, ginseng, or other support your doctor prescribes. Temporary removing high histamine triggering foods such as age meat and leftover meats can support the process. Check with their doctor to see if any of this support you along with: diamine oxidase (DAO), probiotic I. rhamnosus, ginger, chives, oregano, basil, garlic, peppermint and rosemary. You can also read The 4-Phases Reset Plan: Getting to the root of migraines, eczema, vertigo, allergies, and more by Dr. Becky Campbell.
Autophagy (cell self-cleaning) Support
After clearings the physical alchemy takes place as the physical body adjusts to the energetic shifts. During this time cellular change unfolds while the nervous system establishes a new normal. To help your precious cells do their self cleaning to clear dead, damaged cells and debris here are a few things you can do (check with your doctor prior to cleaning):
Rest or take naps if your body needs this, 20 minutes is a good reboot
Low EMF clean energy far infrared sauna (see info below) 20 minutes 4-7x per week
Fasting for 3 -5 days or intermittent fasting
Viral infections
Consuming berberine, green tea extract, ginger, turmeric, Reishi and Chaga mushrooms
Low carb, high fat diet
Resistance and aerobics exercise combined or HIIT
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy
7-8 hours of consistent sleep
Plenty of pure clean room temperature water, especially first thing in the morning

Mucus & the Mucous Membrane
In order for any microbe, virus, bacteria or mold to infect the sinuses, throat or lungs, it must first pass through or enter the body through the mucous membrane. It is the first line of defense against infection, followed by the second line of defense - the immune system... continue reading about this research.
The Himalayan Crystal Salt Inhaler creates an anti-bacterial, anti-viral salt environment in the bronchial tract (lungs) which, according to the Lung Institute, may promote the thinning of mucus buildup, helping to reduce congestion and support ease of breathing.* An inhaler is a convenient, drug-free and non-invasive device for enjoying the benefits of salt-air therapy. Frequent inhalation of the microscopic salt crystals through the salt inhaler, can clean, relax, and revitalize the entire respiratory system, just as the neti pot does for the sinus tract (nose).

Koyah
Koyah sells excellent high quality freeze-dried fruits and veggies. If you are good with kale try their Organic Freeze-dried Kale Powder which is grown and freeze-dried in the USA. Their Organic Freeze-dried Raspberry Power is excellent mixed into smoothies and my organic brownie recipe. Most air-dried vegetable powders are grown and dried in China where heavy metals are typically much higher in the soil than in the US. The biggest pro of using a freeze-dried powder is the nutrient level. A Freeze-dried kale leaf looks just like a fresh kale leaf and nutritionally is as close as you can get. Freeze-drying locks in the nutrients and offers maximum nutrition. For more information check out their website or email: info@koyah.com
Opening the Channels of Well-Being and Seeing
Stretching with deep full breathing can enable the body to be more open energetically. Please check with your doctor for the appropriate stretches. I recommend you lay on the earth, if possible face down, and bring your torso up off the ground as your arms support you. Breathe into the pose and feel any sensation of loosening or tightness free from judgment. Hold at least 15 seconds or longer depending on comfort. This opens the front of the body which has many meridians running through it. Use the same protocol for side stretches, downward dog, upward cat and other stretches recommended by your doctor.
Animals show us this wonderful wisdom. How often do you notice your cat or dog stretching it's spine throughout the day with a downward dog or upward cat pose....maybe you can join in!
Dr. Sue Morter has a supportive book to open up the channels of well-being called The energy Codes (website support).
The human eyes are not meant to look at a single object for extended periods of time. The 20-20-20 Eye Exercise is simple support for you to try. To perform this exercise start by setting a timer for 20 minute intervals. When the timer goes off look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. Try this every day to prevent eye strain. For the second exercise, try it from a seated position: Pick a point on the floor about 10 feet in front of you and focus on it. Trace an imaginary figure eight with your eyes. Keep tracing for 30 seconds, then switch directions. Lastly, close you eyes, rest while you slowly move your eyes from the the right ear to the left ear as though you were reading the back of your brain.

DIY for Gratitude
From Dr. J. Bryan Sexton a program called “3 Good Things.” Each night before going to sleep, spend a few minutes and reflect on 3 good things that happened that day and how you were involved. Simple! And most important do it every night for at least 21 days.
The second is from “My Grandfather’s Blessings” by Rachel Naomi Remen, M.D. on the subject of “Finding New Eyes”: Review the events of your day every evening, asking yourself three questions and writing down the answers to those questions in a journal. The three questions are: What surprised me today? What moved me or touched me today? What inspired me today?
Grounding is the foundation of being
Stand, sit or walk while noticing how you connect to the earth below. Let go of what is or appears to be effort and trust your energy field to take care of that. Be with the sensations or feelings you are experiencing. Allow a space of stillness where you can witness how your body dissipates, communicates and unfolds through its' innate knowing of how to heal or just be.
Nadi Shodhana Pranayama: Alternate Nostril Breathing | SRMD Yoga -Helpful for grounding.
Clear the Clutter
Maintaining your new holographic image requires you to create a new way of being in alignment with who you truly are. Maintaining a clutter free mind and environment assists this process. Clearing the clutter from you home can serve as a meditation to support this. Surround yourself with what you love and get rid of what is irritating.
Breathe and Balance
Just breathe while you feel the sensations of support underneath you. If you can be outside feeling the earth beneath your feet this is optimal. Locate the K1 point which is at the bottom your foot and feel the sensation of your feet connecting to the support beneath you and through out you. Notice if your breath deepens. Rest into it for a few minutes. End with this exercise by Donna Eden for grounding.
Sleep Support
Reprogram yourself for sleep with progressive muscle relaxation.
Step 1: Take a deep breath and hold it for a slow count of five. As you are holding your breath, contract your toes and the muscles of your feet as tightly as you can.
Step 2: After the count of five, exhale and immediately release all the tension in your toes and feet.
Step 3: Take 3 slow breaths and feel the relaxation in your feet. If they still feel somewhat tense, repeat the first 2 steps one or two times.
Step 4: After the feet, work upward, muscle by muscle. Next up is your calves, then your thighs, followed by your hips, your abdomen and torso, your arms, and finally your head, neck, and face. It is common to need an extra cycle or two to get all of the tension out of your head and neck area.
From the Adrenal Reset Diet by Alan Christianson, page 121.
"Sleep Smarter" by Shawn Stevenson is packed with supportive sleep information. Some of his bonus materials include: Blue light apps for smart phones and lap tops.

Passiflora Drops for occasional sleeplessness and nervous tension support, Passionflower, hormone balancing creams, Herbatoninpro, and soothing bedtime teas.
It is helpful to book a Transgenerational Clearing session or a Clearing Elixir if you are having problems sleeping. Clearings connected with unresolved generational memories, anniversary dates of family members passing/traumatic events or daily triggers and stress can be addressed.
Box Breathing: Andrew Weil has an excellent breathing exercise to promote well-being, assist sleep, manage cravings, and reduce fight/flight. Best of all you only need to do it for 30 seconds 2x day.
Creating You
The process of creating your life is the biggest gift you have. Reinforce your new neural networks by supporting your rewired brain! Marinate in your breath, your smile and what is going well. While you marinate find a place in nature where you can listen to waves, birds or whatever you are drawn to. For additional support:
- Choose a low-glycemic-load diet chewing thoroughly to help your digestion.
- Get consistent physical activity your enjoy (here I am enjoying paddle boarding in the freezing Montana winter before the ice forms!!).
- Identifying possible nutrient deficiencies and supplement as needed.
- Quiet your mind by letting yourself feel your sensations (feelings free from labels) rather than analyzing or judging them. Add in the clearing audio tracks whenever you need them.
- Receive adequate sleep by gearing down by 9 pm at the latest which is the time the brain starts detoxification. Be in bed by 10 pm. Note any issue with sleep so you can address it in your session.
- Add some form of spiritual upliftment or inspirational meditations to start and end your day in a high vibration.
Oxytocin Meditation with your Furry Friend
Petting a furry friend can trigger the release of the bonding hormone oxytocin. Marinate in the sensation of their love connection with you. Petting their fur is calming for you both and it lowers your heart rate. If they are small enough, consider holding them on your lap while you are doing something else. For the meditation take a few minutes to savor any sensations related to your connection.
Oxytocin Meditation with your Spouse or Significant Other
Holding hands produces oxytocin, which makes us feel happier and more loved by our partner. Hold hands and savor the sensation for at least 3 minutes in silence so you can just savor. This can be done sitting or while you go for a walk. This can also be a great savoring meditation with a hug. For the meditation include taking a few minutes to savor any sensations related to your connection.
Flower Essences
Humans: Flower Essences are a form of energy medicine in nature. Please talk to your doctor prior to taking essences since they can interfere with other energetic remedies. Your doctor can also test which one is best for you.
Animals: Green Hope Farm has a great line for your animal friends. I like the Bach flower Rescue Remedy for my dog prior to clipping her nails (when we rescued her she had some PTSD regarding this). I have also used this with horses. Make sure to consult with your vet as well.
Nelson Bach has a natural sleep aid that contains the follow flowers:
Aesculus hippocastanum - relief from repetitive thoughts
Helianthemum nummularium(Rock Rose) - adds courage and presence of mind in the face of adversity Clematis vitalba- helps give focus when you are not grounded in reality
Impatiens glandulifera - helps you cope calmly and patiently with irritating problems or people
Prunus cerasifera (Cherry Plum) - helps you act rationally and think clearly with a calm and balanced mind when you feel you are losing control
Ornithogalum umbellatum (Star Of Bethlehem) - softens the impact of shock or fright
Alaskan Essences, Green Hope Farm, Nelson Bach, Flower Essence Society and Jane Bell Essences can be very supportive and gentle for strengthening your new energy field.

Environmental Health
Solar Panels
In an effort to bring more solar energy to Montana and promote awareness regarding creative ways of using solar panels Conscious Completion in collaboration with Human Powered Future created a veranda using solar panels here where our office is located. In the summer the veranda provides shade decreasing the need for electricity to be used towards air conditioning. The veranda also provides a sound structure to support solar panels. This project is available for people to view and get inspired by!
Power Conditioner
Many of us find healthy living is also about limiting the EMF exposure we have. We all want homes that function with clean energy. With the Power Perfect Box EMF fields are reduced, harmonics and dirty energy are filtered, surge protection is provided and energy is produced more efficiently. After just one month of use Laurel's power bill dropped $20 due to the the Box. Laurel also noticed a decrease in EMFs. To order your Power Perfect Box contact Laurel.
Staging - Environmental Ease
Staging is not just for getting your home on the market. Staging your home also enables you to feel more calm, content, and joyful. Our awareness is constantly tracking the environment and what is in it. When it is cluttered or filled with items that do not bring us joy it diminishes our energy. Laurel connects to the environment and the client in order to offer clearings, bring about an environment that serves those within it and address any blocks to settling in one's home or selling it. Clients are left with a design that brings joy and contentment as well as concepts that can be implemented to promote orderliness. Contact Laurel to set up staging. WhatsApp and Zoom consultations are available.
Spiritual upliftment
Everyone's belief is important and WELCOMED!
Studies show a direct impact with the use of prayer and meditation. This includes studies measuring the impact of praying for someone else as well as oneself. With this being the case I wanted to include this resource. The meaning of prayer may be a walk in nature, your own prayer or one Divinely revealed. Whatever it means to you, drawing from this spiritual nourishment and sharing it helps us all. When you make the time to pray in the morning and evening you start and end the day in this higher vibration of reflection and humility.
If you find yourself in a mental loop, thinking too much rather than being in the moment, try one of the prayers such as the short or long healing prayer. Sit with your sensations when you are done saying it, let thoughts come and go. If anything comes to you which feels like the right action to take on a particular matter, follow through with the action and see what happens.
I have had great help drawing from the Baha'i prayers. There is a massive library with prayers for many different subjects. I have outlined some of them below. When you read or say a prayer it is valuable to allow yourself to stay present and open to the inspiration or communication that flows in after the prayer. Making space and time for this meditation is just as important as the prayer. Sometimes nothing will come at the moment, it will just be a quiet time of resting inward. When this happens the communication will often come at a later time or through something someone says or the spiritual meaning that comes from an animal or some other way the Divine communicates with you. This is so valuable because it provides the information and insights that are a special gift of assistance just for you! When you understand or know what this is, and it resonates with you, taking action on your behalf generates even greater gifts and blessings. When you witness these gifts and blessings manifesting, marinate in the sensations connected with the joy, confirmation, gratitude or whatever your state may be to help bring forth even more.
A PRAYER OF HOPE: Hope
HEALING: These can be for you, a loved one or even humanity. This one can be helpful to memorize or say every day when a healing crisis is going on. This one is long but worth trying out to see the impact! Here is Elika Mahony beautifully singing the long version.
DEPARTED: This prayer can be helpful if someone has just passed, it is the anniversary of someone's passing or to help the progression of someone who you discover in you family died from suicide or another harsh form of passing. They can be offered for those who have passed in your family or others.
PROTECTION: This prayer can be helpful for yourself or anyone else you wish protection for.
HELP: Listen to and or memorize this prayer so you can say it internally or out-loud when you need ease or help: Is there any Remover of difficulties save God? Say: Praised be God! He is God! All are His servants, and all abide by His bidding! ~The Báb
MAKING DECISIONS: The reason why this prayer is repeated is to clear the mind. Prior to the prayer write down or clarify your options. After the prayer keep your mind open to allow the answer to come to you rather than thinking about what the answer should be.

Hidden Words of Baha'u'llah
O SON OF BEING! With the hands of power I made thee and with the fingers of strength I created thee; and within thee have I placed the essence of My light. Be thou content with it and seek naught else, for My work is perfect and My command is binding. Question it not, nor have a doubt thereof. - Baha'u'llah, The Arabic Hidden Words, No. 12
O SON OF MAN! If adversity befall thee not in My path, how canst thou walk in the ways of them that are content with My pleasure? If trials afflict thee not in thy longing to meet Me, how wilt thou attain the light in thy love for My beauty? - Baha'u'llah, The Arabic Hidden Words, No. 50
O COMPANION OF MY THRONE! Hear no evil, and see no evil, abase not thyself, neither sigh or weep. Speak no evil, that thou mayest not hear it spoken unto thee, and magnify not the faults of others that thine own faults may not appear great; and wish not the abasement of anyone, that thine own abasement be not exposed. Live then the days of thy life, that are less than a fleeting moment, with thy mind stainless, thy heart unsullied, thy thoughts pure, and thy nature sanctified, so that, free and content, thou mayest put away this mortal frame, and repair unto the mystic paradise and abide in the eternal kingdom for evermore. - Baha'u'llah, The Persian Hidden Words, No. 44
O SON OF SPIRIT! Ask not of Me that which We desire not for thee, then be content with what We have ordained for thy sake, for this is that which profiteth thee, if therewith thou dost content thyself. - Baha'u'llah, The Arabic Hidden Words, No. 18

Inspire & promote health with virtue
Individually or as a family deepen on the meanings of the the virtues, make cards or order virtue cards from the Virtues Project and appreciate yourself and others practicing the virtues. Think about how it fits in your life, use the words with yourself, family or colleagues and hold an event with your family or friends where your study the virtues together. This helps to attract the blessings from these thoughts and words! When you are late say "I appreciate your patience" and notice the sensation of this verses "I am sorry". When someone helps, verbalize how you appreciate the helpfulness and kindness and then savor the sensation. This usually creates sensations connected with elongation of the spine and smiles for everyone. Savor the sensations! Take one virtue a week and deepen on it, use it in communication and then savor the effects!
~The virtues and attributes pertaining unto God are all evident and manifest, and have been mentioned and described in all the heavenly Books. Among them are trustworthiness, truthfulness, purity of heart while communing with God, forbearance, resignation to whatever the Almighty hath decreed, contentment with the things His Will hath provided, patience, nay, thankfulness in the midst of tribulation, and complete reliance, in all circumstances, upon Him. These rank, according to the estimate of God, among the highest and most laudable of all acts. All other acts are, and will ever remain, secondary and subordinate unto them.... (Baha'u'llah, Gleanings from the Writings of Baha'u'llah, p. 290-291)
