Hey guys, so rub your tongue against the back of your teeth while you listen. Why are we doing this? Let me explain. You see, your tongue muscles are actually connected to your vagus nerve, which stimulates your parasympathetic nervous system, and that means you can turn on your power just by rubbing your tongue against the back of your teeth. Imagine you're at work and you're in a meeting and people are like really driving you nuts and you got boss syndrome. It's just annoying. This way you can go, "Oh, I'm so tired." Or you're driving when there's road rage. Anytime you need to just calm down, this is how.
