Deep breathing is one way you can voluntarily stimulate your own vagus nerve. Try it now. Take a deep diaphragmatic breath by imagining you are inflating the lower portion of your lungs near your belly button like a balloon, followed by a gradual exhalation as you pull in your belly button. Aim to inhale through your nose this way for a count of three, then exhale slowly through your mouth for a count of 7. .......You are on your way to enhancing the quality of your life.
Kevin J. Tracey (The Great Nerve: The New Science of the Vagus Nerve and How to Harness Its Healing Reflexes)
believe You’re my healer. I believe You are all I need. I believe You’re my portion. I believe You’re more than enough for me. Jesus You’re all I need. So I stood there with tears, hands raised, trusting Jesus to be enough. As I reduce, He is enough. As I simplify, He is enough. He is my portion where food and clothes and comfort fall woefully short. He can heal me from greed and excess, materialism and pride, selfishness and envy. While my earthly treasures and creature comforts will fail me, Jesus is more than enough. In my privileged world where “need” and “want” have become indistinguishable, my only true requirement is the sweet presence of Jesus. So I wrote my offering on an index card and left it: “All of me.
Jen Hatmaker (7: An Experimental Mutiny Against Excess)
You never ask. You never ask for life. You always ask for the smallest portion. Ask for your return, girl. Claim your life for once. Do not bargain with it, the inevitable end of it always in mind. Ask for the whole of it. It breaks your goddess’s heart to watch you see it as worthless, as nothing but fodder for sacrifice.
Kara Voorhees Reynolds (Priestess (Gods of Tintar, #1))
I am seated in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. I have been delivered by the power in His name, the power of the Blood. God has shown Himself mighty on my behalf; no evil befalls me. I am victorious in Christ Jesus – I am the beloved of the Lord. I walk in love, I walk in His light. My path is set in the brightness of the lamp, and I will not stumble. My eyes behold the sun, and the Sun of righteousness arises over my household with healing in His wings. I am redeemed from affliction, depression, grief, ailments, sicknesses, diseases, death, and destruction. I have life eternal, I have life abundant, I have peace with God, and my ways are pleasing to Him. I am favoured by God; I break through on every side, and I am not restrained by any force. My days are prolonged. The pleasure of the Lord will prosper in my hand. I have my portion with the great and my share of the spoil with the strong. I walk about in His name. This is my season of possibilities, in Jesus’ name. I believe and I say amen.

Our stress-response systems are drained by constantly monitoring the sensory cacophony of the modern world: street sounds, traffic, airplanes, radios, TVs, the hum of refrigerators, the hiss of computer fans. Living in an urban environment taxes these systems even more: Every time you see someone new on the street, your brain asks, Safe and familiar? Friend or foe? Trustworthy or not?—over and over and over again. You scan the attributes of each person and compare them to your “internal catalog” of “safe and familiar.” This constant monitoring of the social environment can consume a significant portion of our bandwidth.

Covenant More Than Just Healing, When Sick This Covenant does not simply mean that when we are sick and dying, the Lord will come and heal us. That is a small portion of the Covenant of Healing. The Covenant has three great principles involved. The first is DIVINE HEALING. The second is a bigger thing than Divine Healing; it is DIVINE HEALTH. If God keeps your family or your city or your nation in Divine Health there is no need for Divine Healing. The third is DIVINE LIFE. Divine Life is greater than Divine Health. Divine Life is that union of the soul with God by which the recipient becomes the partaker of His life. The Unholy Brotherhood Now are involved the three underlying principles that unfold the whole subject of healing. They are Sin, Sickness and Death, an unholy brotherhood, the representatives of the Kingdom of Darkness. They are the children of the Devil and Disobedience. If you want to look for their parentage, Satan is their father and Disobedience is their mother, and out of this union, Sin, Sickness and Death are born. All three are specifically declared by the Word of God to be the enemies of God. God hates sin, and God equally hates sickness, for sickness is incipient death. The final result of the Redemption of Jesus is the destruction of these three enemies of God, this triumvirate of darkness! All the Christian world is clear on this point, that Jesus Christ came to redeem the world from sin. They may dispute His methods but on general principles they believe that Jesus Christ is the Redeemer from sin. The Christian world is not so well agreed that He is the Redeemer from sickness. The Church was agreed on that question at one time. In the early centuries of the Church’s history there was no other method of healing known among Christians, except healing through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. John Wesley says, in his notes on the New Testament, under James 5: 14-16: “The only system of physics known in the early church for four hundred years was the prayer of faith for the sick.” The early Christians had a Remedy, bless God, but it was an eternal one, the living eternal Spirit of Christ in the world, and in their heart, and in their person, when they needed Him for healing. God’s Remedy is a Person, not a material remedy. It is not an “it” but a “Him.” Beloved, receive this Spirit of God into your heart, into your life, into your being.

Research shows that people who spend large portions of their day in fragmented attention, meaning they are distracted by frequently checking notifications, feeds, receiving ads, and other supernormal stimuli, over time lose their ability for sustained concentration and focus.

Part of the challenge of inventing ourselves away from the natural world and our “social” preferences is that doing so stresses the neural systems involved in monitoring the world. Our stress-response systems are drained by constantly monitoring the sensory cacophony of the modern world: street sounds, traffic, airplanes, radios, TVs, the hum of refrigerators, the hiss of computer fans. Living in an urban environment taxes these systems even more: Every time you see someone new on the street, your brain asks, Safe and familiar? Friend or foe? Trustworthy or not?—over and over and over again. You scan the attributes of each person and compare them to your “internal catalog” of “safe and familiar.” This constant monitoring of the social environment can consume a significant portion of our bandwidth.

In The Depression Cure, Ilardi writes: There’s evidence that depression can leave a toxic imprint on the brain. It can etch its way into our neural circuitry—including the brain’s stress response system—and make it much easier for the brain to fall back into another episode of depression down the road. This helps explain a puzzling fact: It normally takes a high level of life stress to trigger someone’s first episode of depression, but later relapse episodes sometimes come totally out of the blue. It seems that once the brain has learned how to operate in depression mode, it can find its way back there with much less prompting. Fortunately, though, we can heal from the damage of depression. All it takes is several months of complete recovery for much of the toxic imprint on the brain to be erased [or overridden].[88] In brainswitching, you choose a new thought that’s neutral or nonsense. This thought doesn’t trigger the same emotional, and resulting chemical, responses in the brain. Instead, the new thought actually creates activity in the neocortex—the thinking part of the brain. Depressive thoughts activate the subcortex, the feeling part of the brain. We have the choice of using either the subcortex (feeling portion) or the neocortex (thinking portion) region of our brain. Remember, your mind will move in the direction of the most current and dominant thought. You can make a thought dominant by saying it over and over again. Even repeatedly saying, “I am depressed” has an effect upon your depression. And when you’re depressed you tend to act in a way that reinforces your depression. You may look depressed. You think defeatist, depressive thoughts. When you’re depressed you’re letting your mind tell you what to feel, think, and do. The author of BrainSwitch Out of Depression suggests

It’s also important to eat what most people would typically recognize as a “balanced meal”: some protein, some fat, and some carbohydrates, including fiber. This translates well to eating quality meats and fish, quality added fats, large portions of nonstarchy vegetables, and some starchy vegetables and fruit. Recommendations for portion sizes and macronutrient ratios are discussed in more detail on see here.

Yes, your personality and choices in this life are affected by your childhood upbringing and your environment, but your past lives can point to fears, longings, phobias, obstacles and patterns. Although you’ve had many past lives, not all of them will affect your current behavior or personality.   As you can imagine, you’ve suffered greatly in some of your past lives. You’ve died young, you’ve endured wounds and illnesses, heartache and abandonment, abuse and neglect, poverty and pain. You’ve been the good guy and the bad guy. Rich and poor. Famous and common. Male and female. Some of that can carry over into your present life and color portions of it or flood every corner.

Its the stage where you can fill the love of GOD in an empty portion of heart & repentance!! Its the time where you feel the existence of your loved one and GOD !!

Paul suffered and struggled mightily in the service of his faith. Perhaps you could argue that he simply wasn’t the best example after which to model our own behavior. What if we look at the ultimate example of a Christian teacher and expositor, Christ Himself? Surely then we’ll see how to handle this unappealing message of a crucified Savior whom only the dregs of society preached. Surely at last we’ll see a glimmer of success. But by worldly standards, when Jesus began preaching His own gospel in His own hometown, He was an even more spectacular failure than Paul! This episode in Jesus’ life is one of the most gripping and powerful portions of the Bible. His words in Scripture capture the shock and emotion of the moment, and they still stun us with their power and their force. The riveting drama begins in Luke 4, verses 16 through 21: So He came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up. And as His custom was, He went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up to read. And He was handed the book of the prophet Isaiah. And when He had opened the book, He found the place where it was written: “The Spirit of the LORD is upon Me, Because He anointed Me To preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives And recovery of sight to the blind, To set at liberty those who are oppressed; To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD.” Then He closed the book, and gave it back to the attendant and sat down. And the eyes of all who were in the synagogue were fixed on Him. And He began to say to them, “Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.” Imagine going to church next Sunday, expecting to hear your pastor preaching, and having the Lord Jesus Christ appear in person to tell you that He had come to fulfill all the prophecies of His second coming—all the prophecies of the glory of His kingdom of salvation on earth! Imagine that you had gone that morning, and Jesus was standing in the pulpit to tell you that the time was now for the fulfillment of all divine promises connected to His return. Well, that’s something like what the Jews in the Nazareth synagogue experienced that day. They had attended that synagogue all their lives, and they had heard reading after reading of the Torah, the Law, and the Haftarah, the prophets, and sermon after sermon on Sabbath after Sabbath throughout their lifetimes. They had heard much teaching about the Messiah, and they had been reading many Scriptures about His coming and kingdom. But all of a sudden, on this Sabbath in the year A.D. 28, in an obscure synagogue in a nothing blue-collar town called Nazareth, He was there!
John F. MacArthur Jr. (Hard to Believe: The High Cost and Infinite Value of Following Jesus)
In recent years, scientists have come to understand that consciously controlling your breath can have huge benefits on your overall system, primarily with regard to the regulation of your nervous system in relation to anxiety, depression, and restlessness. The vagal response is the stimulation of the vagus nerve, which runs down along the anterior portion of your spine from your brain to your internal organs. When the vagus nerve is stimulated, a signal is sent to the brain to reduce your blood pressure and calm your body and mind, reducing stress and helping to manage chronic illness, as healing can happen only in a more relaxed state of being. For example, if your amygdala, the nerve center at the lower-central part of your brain, is agitated, it triggers your sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and your fight-or-flight response. You may become anxious, fearful, reactive, or frozen. Once triggered, this response lasts at least 20 minutes, but you can often find yourself stuck in this state for much longer. According to Dr. Mladen Golubic, an internist at Cleveland Clinic’s Center for Integrative Medicine, when in this state, you take shallow chest breaths, sometimes halting the breath completely, extending the effects of your SNS response. By taking deeper and fuller breaths, especially by allowing the abdomen to relax and expand, the vagus nerve is stimulated, and calm can quickly be restored. This calming and stress-reducing response is called the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) response, or vagal response. When your SNS is calmed, you have more access to the prefrontal cortex of your brain, boosting your ability to think clearly and rationalize. Dr. Golubic goes on to say, “The vagal response reduces stress. It reduces our heart rate and blood pressure.” This regulation of the nervous system is one of the primary benefits of a consistent pranayama practice.

It can be challenging to decipher what causes fatigue. One way to understand fatigue during immunotherapy is to look at it as a natural consequence of the way in which immunotherapy works (Abdel-Rahmen et al, 2016). Think back to the last time you were sick with a bad cold or stomach bug. You probably spent a large portion of your day in bed, feeling exhausted. Being tired when we’re sick is common, and even adaptive; when our immune system works hard, our body shifts our energy resources to prioritize the healing process. As you’ve learned, immunotherapy works by enhancing our immune system so that it can successfully fight cancer. Therefore, it makes sense that fatigue should accompany this process.

[10] Give up your faults and direct your hands aright, and cleanse your heart from all sin. [11] Offer a sweet-smelling sacrifice, and a memorial portion of fine flour, and pour oil on your offering, as much as you can afford. [12] And give the physician his place, for the Lord created him; let him not leave you, for there is need of him. [13] There is a time when success lies in the hands of physicians, [14] for they too will pray to the Lord that he should grant them success in diagnosis and in healing, for the sake of preserving life. [15] He who sins before his Maker, may he fall into the care of a physician.

Any meal that includes all six tastes is balancing to all doshas. Unless someone is very imbalanced, a six-taste meal is enough. In the case of any imbalance, keep meals simple, light, fresh, and easy to digest. This will suit all doshas. Prepare a large single-course meal and adjust portion size and spicing for individual doshas. For example, say you make rice, mung dal, and sautéed greens for a group. A person with vata imbalance can make the rice their largest portion, and add an extra dollop of ghee or stir in their favorite warming spice. A person with pitta imbalance can have equal portions and add a generous garnish of fresh cilantro, mint, or dill. A person with kapha imbalance can reduce the portion of rice, favoring instead the dal and the greens, and sprinkle with red pepper flakes. Use meal plans as templates, and be creative. Repeat days that work well for you.. Pick one day of the week to prepare foods in advance.

Quiet your mind through prayer and meditation Scripture admonishes us to meditate day and night on God’s Word. It brings physical, emotional, and spiritual healing and peace to our minds. When thoughts are racing in my head and I cannot sleep, I will often focus on a portion of Scripture or on the name of Jesus. Meditation allows us to just be in the moment with God. It stops everything else and brings attention to the here and now. It makes us aware of His presence.

Hebrews 12:2 instructs us to focus our attention on Jesus, calling Him the “pioneer and perfecter of our faith.” The New Living Translation (NLT) renders this portion differently, calling Jesus “the Champion who initiates and perfects our faith.” In other words, if you don’t have faith, turn your focus to Jesus, and He will initiate it. And if your faith isn’t perfect, look to Jesus; He will perfect it.

This healing is for everyone. Perhaps the greatest oversight of the trans movement thus far is that it has positioned gender-based trauma as something that only trans people experience. As a result, there are millions of cisgender, heterosexual people—particularly men—who have never coped with the trauma they’ve experienced, who don’t even recognize their experiences as trauma in the first place. They’ve spent a large portion of their lives being told that they are not man enough if they do this or aren’t masculine enough if they do that, and none of these imperatives are even recognized as gender policing. So many men remain trapped in a cycle of abuse that says you can’t cry, can’t recognize your pain, and must participate in cultures of violence. For many, participating in this cycle of abuse is even a badge of honor. This book is particularly for them. In our world as it is today, it isn’t a question of whether you’ve had gender-based trauma in your childhood. Everyone has had some. Rather, it’s a question of what degree of gender-based trauma you’ve experienced, what degree of distance you felt from your body and your peers. We all need to heal on one level or another.

3. Healed and Renewed Every Day Today, I bring every pain and infirmity in my spirit, soul, and body to judgment by the blood of Jesus Christ. I announce before heaven and earth today that I am healed through the blood of Jesus. I declare that through the blood, God heals and renews my body every day. Sickness and afflictions are not my portion, in the name of Jesus Christ. 1 Peter 2:24 - Who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sin, might live for righteousness—by whose stripes you were healed.

Oftentimes we journey through life aspiring to desire more, but past traumas, self-unforgiveness, and self-sabotage can hinder our progress! Hopefully this prayer will initiate the healing process, freeing you to receive all the blessings God has in store for you. Let’s pray: Prayer for Self-Forgiveness “God of mercy and restoration, I come not to hide, but to heal. I lay down every regret, every harsh word I’ve spoken to myself, every moment I’ve replayed in shame. You are not the voice of condemnation—you are the whisper of redemption.Today, I choose to agree with heaven. I release myself from the weight of perfection and receive the gift of grace. I am not defined by my past—I am refined by Your presence. Teach me to see myself through Your eyes: loved, chosen, and still becoming. I forgive myself, not because I deserve it, but because You declared it. And Your word is final. Amen.” Affirmations for Self-Forgiveness You can speak these aloud or write them in your journal. “I am not my mistake—I am God’s masterpiece in motion.” “I release the need to punish myself. Grace is my portion.” “My past is a classroom, not a prison.” “I forgive myself because heaven already has.” “I am worthy of love, even from me.” “I walk in divine compassion, starting with myself.” “I am becoming, and that is holy.” I pray this helps you. You deserve so much more than you’ve been through. Don’t miss your moment. God loves you!

Lord Jesus, I repent for my unbelief, my hard-heartedness, my stubbornness, my chronic failure to obey. For having allowed myself to be deceived by sin. I’m so sorry. Please forgive me. Forgive any remnant of unbelief. Help me move from belief that to belief in. Please give me the gift of faith. Give me a double portion of faith. I want an Abraham kind of faith that hopes against hope. That believes in Your ability and desire to speak that which is not as though it is. Father, You have rescued me from the kingdom of darkness and transferred me into the kingdom of the Son of Your love, and yet I don’t live that way I’m sorry for trusting more in the power of the enemy than in Your power and authority. I’m sorry I haven’t done what You said to do But I want to With all that I am, I want to I want a Hebrews 11 kind of faith. The kind that pleases You and that You write about. Holy Spirit, come fill me now with faith. Father, in my weakness I have chosen unbelief because it’s easier. Because it requires nothing Forgive me Help my unbelief Lord, my enemy is fear So, in agreement with Your Word, I rebuke, bind, cast down, reject, and repel the spirit of fear in my life now and forever. Get out! Go! I’m calling you out. You must flee now in the name of Jesus. And where there is a generational curse of fear passed to me by my ancestors, I break that curse in the name and by the blood of Jesus. I proclaim that Jesus has given me—past tense—a spirit of power, love, and a sound mind. I receive the Holy Spirit now and release Him to abound and grow in my life. Father, please show me as we walk out of here any place where I am encouraging my own faithlessness. Please show me any door of unbelief. Please show me any wound of my past or experience that is limiting or hindering my deeper faith in You Father, please reveal what is hidden in me that limits me or causes me to be fearful or unbelieving Lastly, I thank You for the gift of faith, and I receive it. I open my eyes, my ears, my head, and especially my heart to faith. Father, I believe. I believe in You, in all You did, and all You said to do. And from this day forward, I have a God kind of faith that obeys—that preaches the kingdom, heals the sick, casts out demons, cleanses the lepers, and raises the dead In Jesus’ name
