In this video Dr. Andrea Furlan explains that the autonomic nervous system is divided into two parts: the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. The vagus nerve is the longest cranial nerve and it controls the function of almost all the organs in the chest, abdomen and pelvis.
There are ways to activate the parasympathetic nervous system. And Dr. Furlan shows some exercises that can help to achieve this.
