Vagus Nerve Activation -

🌀 🌿 The Power of Humming “AUM” for Healing & Nervous System Regulation

As Sadhguru teaches, the sound “AUM” (also spelled “OM”) is not just a chant - it is the primordial sound of creation, the root vibration from which all other sounds arise. It carries immense transformative energy, both spiritually and physiologically.

When chanted or hummed with awareness, AUM becomes a tool for deep inner cleansing, realignment, and healing.

But beyond its spiritual power, modern science now confirms that humming AUM activates the vagus nerve - a key pathway in the body’s relaxation and healing response.

🌿 What Is the Vagus Nerve?

The vagus nerve is the longest cranial nerve in the body. It connects your brain to your heart, lungs, digestive system, thyroid, and many vital organs. It plays a central role in:

• Calming the nervous system

• Reducing inflammation

• Balancing heart rate and digestion

• Regulating immune responses

• Improving mood and emotional resilience

When this nerve is stimulated gently through practices like humming, deep breathing, or chanting, it signals the body to shift out of fight-or-flight (stress mode) into rest-and-digest (healing mode).

🔊 🌿 Why Humming “AUM” Works

• The sound “AUM” ends in a prolonged humming vibration (“mmmm”), which resonates in the throat, chest, and head -the exact areas where the vagus nerve runs.

• This vibration acts as a natural massage for the vagus nerve, enhancing its tone and function.

• Regular humming or chanting restores balance to the nervous system and helps regulate many of the systems that go off-track in chronic illness.

🧘 🌿 How to Practice Humming AUM

1. Sit comfortably with your spine upright.

2. Take a slow, deep breath in.

3. On the exhale, softly chant:
Aaaaaaa…Uuuuuuuu…Mmmmmm - let the “Mmm” be long and vibrational.

4. Feel the vibration in your chest, face, and skull.

5. Repeat for 5-7 minutes, daily if possible.

Optional: Place one hand on your chest and one on your belly to feel the resonance more deeply.

🌿 🌟 Final Thoughts

*Inspired by Sadhguru: The Universe Is Sound

In the stillness of humming “AUM,” your body finds safety, your mind begins to clear, and healing pathways open.

Whether you chant it for spiritual alignment or health benefits - or both - this sacred sound offers real, lasting support on your path to wellness.

“Sound is not just a vibration - it is a medicine when used consciously.” - Inspired by Sadhguru

Every form in existence is a vibration.

The entire universe is energy, frequency, and sound - nothing more, nothing less.

Sound is vibration, and all of existence is a symphony of sounds woven together.

Every form is a particular kind of sound, and every sound carries within it a specific form.

This magnificent relationship between sound and form is the science behind mantras.

When we understand that sound creates form and form expresses sound, we begin to perceive the fabric of creation itself.

At the root of all sound are three primordial vibrations:
Aaa… Uuu… Mmm… - AUM
This is the universal sound of creation, the original resonance from which all life arises.
