131: The V.A.G.U.S. Protocol with Dr. Navaz Habib
In this episode, I introduce the Vegas Protocol, a new program designed to help high performers and health seekers find more resilience and vitality in their daily lives. I share how the Vegas Protocol evolved, the five key steps: Validate, Activate, Gut Brain Immune Optimization, Unburden, and Sustain, and why each plays a valuable role in optimizing well-being. I also discuss practical tools like breathwork, lab testing, mindful habits, and how wearable tech can offer helpful insights into your health journey.
Throughout the conversation, we explore how the vagus nerve supports recovery, performance, and emotional health. You’ll learn about different types of stress, why both cold plunges and sauna sessions can build resilience, and how habits rooted in science can set you up for lasting success. With stories, analogies, and tips from both hosts, we highlight paths to better sleep, nutrition, and mindset shifts that can transform the way you live and feel each day.
Ready to take the next step? I invite you to join our free 10-day Vagus Nerve Jumpstart Mini Course and explore the Health Upgraded online community. Share this episode with friends or family who may benefit, and start building habits that support a vibrant, healthy future!
