modulate neural signalling or act on afferent axons. Knowledge of all these mechanisms of interaction of the gut enteric nervous
system on the central nervous system lends credence to my hypothesis that reprocessing of the gut’s emotional response can
help to reduce any dysregulation of the gastrointestinal system. Also continuing reprocessing of distressing sensations in relation
to trauma at the level of the stomach can be signalled to the heart and brain via the vagus nerve. This will enable digestion and
metabolism of these sensations at a cognitive level.
