Morning,

Did anyone else see this article (advert!?) in the guardian today about the vagus nerve and this device? Wondering if anyone here has tried it with any success?

Haven’t tried this device but have used a Sensate (available at Amazon) which also claims to engage the vagus nerve. I really like it…instant meditation! Very calming.

Oh really, that’s good to know, thanks… I might add that to my gift list 😉

Yeah surely it's advert.... disappointing editing by guardian lacking multiple views, brands and research....

It’s clearly not an advert. It doesn’t make any claims about the efficacy of the device beyond what the clinical trials have suggested.

Interesting article but it looks like the device is still being used in several trials.

Not what you're looking for?
