As we navigate the changes unfolding in our turbulent world, we’re often too busy to slow down and notice the effects that chronic stress and trauma can have on our bodies.
These trauma and stress patterns have likely left an imprint on your nervous system.
Thankfully, you won’t have to look far to find an expert on the inner workings of your nervous system. Because you already have the power to rewrite harmful patterns, reclaim your health, and step into your power.
The key to restoring your mind, body, and spirit is with easy-to-implement energy medicine exercises that tap into your vagus nerve.
An essential player in your central nervous system, your vagus nerve talks to every organ and gland in your body — communicating from your brain to your gut, and everywhere in between...
Join us for a fascinating 7-module video training with Melanie Smith, doctor of Oriental Medicine and Eden Energy Medicine Advanced Practitioner, as she shares how to maximize the vagus nerve’s profound impact on your organ systems — and your physical, mental, and emotional wellness.
With Melanie as your expert teacher, you’ll become empowered to tap into your own healing power.
Melanie will equip you with a set of daily energy medicine self-care tools you can use right away to regulate your own stress reactions and emotional health.
When you combine these new tools with simple lifestyle changes, your confidence in your own healing power will grow as you practice what you learn from Melanie — and continue to thrive in the years to come.
She’ll guide you to explore the anatomy and physiology of your brain — the autonomic nervous system (both sympathetic and parasympathetic)... the gut-to-brain loop and the microbiome… neurotransmitters... and much more.
You'll feel empowered to shift deeply embedded chronic health problems, address gut-health issues, reduce emotional stress, balance your hormones, improve your sleep, and much more.
To meet the individual needs of her thousands of clients and students, Dr. Melanie integrates a unique fusion of Oriental Medicine, energy medicine, sound healing, acupuncture, functional medicine, energy psychology, and nutrition. She’s beloved by her students for demystifying some of the body’s most complex systems.
Join Melanie and learn to use the power of your vagus nerve as a barometer to check in with how your whole system is working — and respond right away with simple, deep healing practices to rest, relax, and restore your whole being.
In this 7-part transformational intensive, Dr. Melanie will guide you through the fundamental energy medicine self-care techniques you’ll need to activate your vagus nerve and support and restore your parasympathetic nervous system, unlocking radiant mind-body health.

Dive into both Donna Eden’s and Dr. Melanie’s perspectives on the importance of evolving the vagus nerve response from an ancient response to a modern one to meet our current lives’ demands. A world-renowned author and teacher of energy medicine, Donna has been teaching people for nearly four decades how to work with their energy systems to reclaim their health and natural vitality. She offers never-before-shared insights into why it’s more critical than ever to understand the inner workings of the vagus nerve and its impact on your health.
Discover powerful tools to help with brain fog, cognitive decline, concentration, and focus. In this video, Dr. Melanie talks with Dondi Dahlin, author of The Five Elements and co-author with her mother Donna Eden of The Little Book of Energy Medicine. You’ll discover four things every brain cell must have to function properly, the critical role your gut plays in maintaining a healthy brain, and gut-to-brain hookup exercises, including one Melanie hasn’t shared anywhere else.
The vagus nerve is a key component of our parasympathetic nervous system and responsible for maintaining multiple aspects of balance in our bodies. Join Dr. Melanie as she talks with naturopathic physician and founding director of Donna Eden’s International Certification Program, Vicki Matthews — who pioneered using the Five Elements model from Traditional Chinese Medicine to help people understand and improve their health and relationships. Melanie and Vicki share how the Five Elements offer numerous ways to balance the body’s energies to help improve vagal tone.
Let’s not forget that your dog, cat, or horse also has a vagus nerve! Join Dr. Melanie as she chats with educator and author Madison King, who’s been working professionally with humans’ and animals’ energies for more than three decades. They’ll walk you through the powerful impact the vagus nerve has on animals, its main functions, its connection to hearts, lungs, and digestion, and its relationship to stress — which is involved in all dis-ease for both humans and animals. You’ll also learn how to connect and work energetically to help improve your animal’s vagal tone, and what that can mean for your animal.

— Luis, New York, New York
I’m experiencing a huge shift. Physical symptoms are healing. Trauma patterns are reorganizing and clearing. I’m returning to my true self, my best identity, which left me after a trauma years ago. My courage and creativity are back… my power and willingness to “do scary things.” It is incredible. The difference each day is clear… I’m still sometimes dysregulated… but I regulate quickly with practice.
— Linda Carr
I have purchased a lot of online courses and I can honestly say Melanie’s vagus nerve program is by far the best of all of them! She provides a tremendous amount of information on the topic and delivers it in a way that’s easily understood. I look forward to learning more from her in the future.

The protocols and practices that Dr. Melanie provided were invaluable. I had already experienced a shift in anxiety from starting Donna Eden energy exercises earlier this year, but this took it to a whole new level, and I feel very empowered and equipped to continue to explore the practices Dr. Melanie shared. I’ve landed on a wonderful 10- to 15-minute daily practice that keeps me feeling very grounded, balanced, and happy.

I had the good fortune of being in one of Dr. Melanie’s energy medicine classes. Her wellspring of knowledge is deep and clear. Her teaching style is precise and concise. Her clarity and ease are hallmarks of a master at work. Dr. Melanie’s blend of experience and scientific background add credibility to the field of energy medicine.
— Christine Simonetta, Eden Energy Medicine Advanced Practitioner
Melanie has carefully, skillfully, and thoughtfully crafted the teaching of energy medicine and taken it to a new level. Having taken most of Dr. Melanie’s energy mastery courses, I can honestly say that each one is better than the rest; in fact, I don’t hesitate to take the same course more than one time to absorb all the rich material. At the end of a workshop, one feels so empowered, so revitalized, so grateful, and so cared for that there is only anticipation for the next one. Having taught many workshops myself for over 40 years, both as an attorney (teaching other lawyers, judges, and juries) and as an energy medicine practitioner, I have only the highest praise and utmost respect for the gift of Melanie’s teaching.
— Karen L. Semmelman, JD, Eden Energy Medicine Advanced Practitioner
Melanie Smith is a wonderful and generous teacher of energy medicine and related concepts. She has the rare ability to explain this material clearly, concisely, and in a way that is accessible both to people unfamiliar with energy medicine and to longtime practitioners. I was fortunate enough to have Dr. Melanie as my first teacher of energy medicine. Her teaching style is so logical and organized that I was able to delve into new topics and feel welcomed. She has a deep respect for this work and for her students that is readily apparent. Even when she is presenting huge amounts of information, she breaks it down step by step. I highly recommend studying with Dr. Melanie!

“I’ve never seen a course so well put together ever...”
I had never participated before in an online course. The packaging, presentation, inclusion, and Facebook postings created a wonderful, safe cocoon within which to participate. I’ve never seen a course so well put together ever — not in all the years of taking college classes — and I had my doubts about doing an online course. The wealth of organization and ease of learning materials and support made this fun as well.
