Holy Sh*t I Have ADHD

This week Robbie and Jordan talk about the vagus nerve and its effects on regulating our parasympathetic systems, the gut-brain link, and ways to stimulate the vagus nerve to ease anxiety and find calm. We also chat about the stalemate Canadian federal election, the pressure we put on ourselves to feel productive, and Robbie surprises Jordan with some fan art from listener Susannah! Check out her portfolio, and follow her on Instagram, Twitter and TikTok!

Correction:
The sci-fi series Nick co-produced and featured in was the Psyborgs, not the Psybernauts per Jordan's bad memory.

More from this episode:

Proudly ADHD Podcast interview Dr. Ian Macnaughton about trauma and ADHD, somatic therapy, and more.

Michelle Frank on polyvagal theory in ADDitude.

Med Tech Dive's Maria Rachal's analysis of the possibilities non-invasive electrical vagus nerve stimulation offers to both patients and profit. The Deep Dive section has a good background.

Med Tech Dive's Maria Rachal on the first FDA-approved VNS treatment.

Susie Baxter presents self-massage exercises for the vagus nerve.

The Alash Ensemble perform Tuvan throat singing accompanied on the Doshpuluur, a 3-string lute.

Anna-Maria Hefele demonstrates and explains polyphonic overtone singing.

Thank you so much to our Patreon subscribers Lindsey B, Dave M, Jill B, Page N and Brianna G. Your support means so much!

Production and music by Jordan Lane.
