Welcome back to The Neuro Collective Podcast
as Dr. Michael and May Bagnell,IHP continue their Inside the Brain series with a deep dive into the brainstem — the powerful control center responsible for breathing, heart rate, balance, stress regulation, sleep, swallowing, and autonomic function. Although small in size, the brainstem plays a massive role in your daily health and survival.
In this episode, they explore how stress, concussion, aging, nervous system overload, and lifestyle habits can impact brainstem function and contribute to symptoms like dizziness, anxiety, migraines, chronic fatigue, POTS, sleep disturbances, and sensory overload. They also discuss the fascinating role of the Reticular Activating System (RAS) and the vagus nerve in focus, attention, emotional regulation, and nervous system balance.
You’ll also learn practical ways to support your brainstem through regulated breathing, sleep rhythms, movement, vagal stimulation, and nervous system regulation strategies — helping you better understand your brain and optimize your health from the inside out.
