@themovementparadigm: ⁣ The sphinx, another powerful vagus nerve hack, can improve your cervical range of motion, thereby increasing blood flow to the brainstem and stimulating the vagus nerve.⁣ ⁣ If we have forward head posture and limited cervical range of motion, our cranial nerves will be impacted since they exit from the brainstem. We need optimal cranial nerve function so that we can be in a state of social engagement.⁣ ⁣ The exercise is meant to stimulate cranial nerve XI, the accessory nerve. This will relax your SCM muscle as well as your trapezius muscles.⁣ ⁣ This is a developmental position, something we did as babies. When we prop up onto our forearms, it ignites a postural reflex. It is also optimal for reflexive stability. This is a great position, movement, and posture to work from. If you have a stiff neck or you experience migraines on a regular basis, then this is a powerful exercise to perform. Make sure to do it as often as you need to help with your symptoms.
