Explanation
The parasympathetic nervous system is a subconscious control system in the body responsible for stimulating reproduction, digestion, rest, and controlling aspects of homeostasis. When the parasympathetic nervous system assumes prominence, it affects the following:
- Heart rate (slows the rate and reduces the force of contraction)
- Digestion (increases digestion rate)
- Respiratory rate (slows rate)
- Bronchioles (constricts)
- Blood vessels (constrict in skeletal muscles)
- Perspiration (decreases)
- Pupillary constriction (smaller pupil)
- Micturition (relaxes bladder to allow urination)
- Rectum (relaxes)
- Gallbladder (stimulates secretions)
- Sexual arousal (stimulates)
If you have been guided to this page by the subconscious mind through testing, it indicates that the parasympathetic nervous system is imbalanced in some way.
Decoding
You’ve already identified the imbalance. Continue to Association.
Association
Ask: Is there an associated imbalance that needs to be decoded?
- If no, skip to Intention
- If yes, return to the home page, decode and address any associated imbalance(s), then return here and repeat the above question.
Intention
Swipe three times with a magnet or your hand on any length of the governing meridian, while holding an intention to correct the imbalance.
