What if stress, pain, and brain fog eased not with more effort—but by training your body to live in “rest-and-digest” on command?


Host Lisa Urbanski sits down with Dr. Hany Demian to demystify the vagus nerve—the two-way superhighway between brain and body that shapes mood, digestion, heart rate, inflammation, and recovery. Together they unpack how to shift from fight-or-flight to a parasympathetic state using practical tools: breathwork, cold exposure, humming/gargling, gentle movement, HRV awareness, and medically supervised stimulation methods.

They also explore peptides in the context of longevity and repair, and why creativity and clearer thinking bloom when you relax instead of push. Real cases, real protocols, and a realistic path to feeling better—without the all-or-nothing grind.

You’ll learn:

• What the vagus nerve does (and why it impacts everything from mood to digestion)
• Simple daily activations to nudge your system into calm (no gadgets required)
• How external/clinical stimulation methods are being used in practice
• Where peptides may fit for inflammation, recovery, and resilience
• A 12-week roadmap to “retrain” your nervous system baseline
