The parasympathetic nervous system is the housekeeping manager for the body.
When a person is at rest, meditating or reading a book, the parasympathetic nervous system is at work.
The parasympathetic nervous system is a division of the autonomic nervous system, which controls bodily functions that occur without conscious control, such as heart rate, respiration, digestion and blood pressure. Cranial nerves originate from the brain and innervate the eyes, salivary, tear and parotid glands, mucous membranes of the nasal cavity, and internal organs in the abdomen and thorax. Among the cranial nerves are the two vagus nerves.
Digestive system: It aids digestive motility and stimulates the secretion of bile and digestive enzymes.HOW IS THE PARASYMPATHETIC NERVOUS SYSTEM ACTIVATED?Dr. Gurneet Sawhney , a neurologist based in India, said that the parasympathetic nervous system is activated when the body experiences certain stimuli or situations that provide feelings of safety or relaxation.
"A parasympathetic human is represented by someone who has a normal, basal level of heartbeat and respiration, with mildly constricted pupils, who salivates, digests and metabolizes food, who urinates and defecates, and can get sexually aroused," Giordano said.
