All exercises and stimulating techniques that facilitate vagus nerve functions are all designed with one primary goal: to restore the vagus nerve to a safe state.

Over the past 10 years, urban planners, technology companies, and governments have promoted smart cities with a somewhat utopian vision of urban life made knowable and manageable through data collection and analysis. Emerging smart cities have become both crucibles and showrooms for the practical application of the Internet of Things, cloud computing, and the integration of big data into everyday life.
