Watch your Tone!

We love Gus!

It's the name we give the Vagus Nerve for our children in our information we share and on our videos.

Lavenderbuddy ® guides the children to use touch, breath and scent to activate Gus and let him come back to a state of balance which is called Vagal Tone.

This may not seem like a big thing so young, but long term it stops the Vagal Tone imbalance and leaving the nervous system stuck in Fight, Flight, Freeze, Fawn, Flop, which leads to so many other things arising for them.

Using the Lavenderbuddy ® as a Tool to support GUS, is like having a friend to co-regulate this system when:

1. An adult is not there to support, for many reasons.

2. Caused from a trusted adult who's own dysregulated responses came out to play and the small loses trust in them.

3. To learn our smalls an important skill of balancing this system within the body by themselves independently.

All this from a wee purple teddy bear and works silently in the background!

Amazing isn't it!
