You are about to discover how to treat your anxiety, depression, and other chronic illnesses by simply activating your vagus nerve - the longest and most complex of all the cranial nerves, which runs from your brain, through your thorax up to your abdomen. Why would it matter, you might wonder? Because, given that the nerve acts as some sort of superhighway, allowing flow of information between the organs within its network, any interruption within the network means information won’t flow, and different consequences follow.
