Jessica Maguire explains how we can retrain our nervous system through the simple act of play. She explains the role of the vagus nerve in regulating our responses to stress and offers very simple and practical advice on how to incorporate play into our daily lives to promote a healthy, flexible nervous system. Jessica Maguire holds a Bachelor of Health Science degree and a Masters of Physiotherapy. Her post graduate study includes the fields of neuroscience, neuroplasticity, brain-heart biofeedback, brain-body medicine and transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation. As a TEDx speaker and lecturer, she believes that knowledge is power. Jessica teaches a long-term, sustainable, profoundly transformative methodology of nervous system repair, empowering students to step into the driver’s seat of their own health and wellbeing. Her aim is to create true freedom from nervous system dysregulation and all the painful side effects that it causes. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at
