GLYCINE: The Most Underrated Amino Acid for Nervous System + Fascia Repair

If you’re anxious, inflamed, tight, wired but tired, You might not need another supplement.
You might just need more glycine.

Here’s why: Image
Image
Glycine = Calm in molecule form

It’s your body’s brake pedal.

It slows down the nervous system, quiets the mind, and helps you sleep deeper than you have in months.

Without it?
Your system is stuck in overdrive. Image
It’s your fascia’s best friend

Fascia is made of collagen and collagen is made 1/3 of glycine.

No glycine → weak collagen → tight, stiff fascia → pain, poor posture, emotional tension.

Glycine brings back fluidity, strength, and flow. Image
It feeds your vagus nerve

Your vagus nerve is the highway of your nervous system, from gut to brain.

Glycine activates it, calms it, restores balance.

It’s like breathwork in amino acid form. Image
It detoxifies your brain + liver

Glycine is a precursor for glutathione, your body’s master antioxidant.

This means less brain fog, faster healing, and less toxic load weighing down your nervous system. Image
It’s a trauma release aid

Somatic work, breath, fascia release all powerful.

But if your system is depleted, your body holds on.

Glycine gives your body the raw material to let go.

I take 6g before bed and 3g into my coffee / tea
It improves sleep, digestion, and insulin sensitivity

Low glycine = poor sleep
Low glycine = blood sugar swings
Low glycine = gut lining damage

Add it back → your body starts to regulate again. Image
It’s the missing piece for fascia + nervous system healing

If you do fascia maneuvers, breathwork, cold exposure, prayer and still feel stuck, you might be missing the internal glue.

Glycine is that glue. Image
I take it every day.

The Fascia Release to Unlock Your Pineal Gland

They lied when they told you your “third eye” was just spiritual fluff.

There’s a physical way to decompress the exact fascia that surrounds your pineal gland.

It’s called the Crown Spiral Reset and here’s how to do it yourself: Image
Image
First, understand this:

Your pineal gland sits deep in your brain, like a compass for light, sleep, intuition, and spiritual perception.

But most people are too tense, inflamed, and locked up in the skull fascia to feel anything.

Tight fascia = closed perception. Image
Why fascia matters:

The fascia that wraps your skull is one continuous sheet, from forehead to jaw, temples to neck.

When it’s tight, your brain can’t breathe.
Your thoughts loop.
Your spirit dims.

But when you release it, something opens. Image

THE DIY TONGUE RELEASE

Most people have never released their tongue.
But this tiny muscle is connected to your jaw, gut, pelvic floor, even your feet.

It’s not just tension. It’s stored trauma, survival, and nervous system bracing.

Here’s the DIY fascia release I use to reset the entire body in 2 minutesImage
Image
Why the tongue?

It anchors the deep front line, a fascial chain running from your mouth to your toes.

Tongue → throat → diaphragm → psoas → pelvic floor → tibialis → big toe

If your tongue is tight, your whole system is compensating. Image
It’s not a stretch. It’s a release.
We’re not trying to lengthen muscle we’re unwinding fascia and stored emotion.

The tongue holds what was never expressed.
What was swallowed.
What your body had no space to process. Image

THE TONGUE PULL RELEASE

Your Entire Body Is Connected to Your Tongue

If your jaw is tight, your pelvic floor is clenched, and your breath is shallow, Start with your tongue.

This one release resets the entire system, from your face to your feet. Image
Image
The tongue isn’t just a muscle. It’s a fascial anchor.

It connects your brainstem, diaphragm, gut, pelvic floor, all the way to your big toe.

When it’s tense, your whole body compensates.
If it’s tied down? Even worse. Image
Let’s talk about tongue-tie.

Many adults still have undiagnosed or partially-restricted tongue-ties.

What that causes:
•Mouth breathing
•Forward head posture
•Jaw clenching
•Pelvic floor dysfunction
•Vagus nerve dysregulation
•Poor digestion
•Chronic stress patterns

And it often goes unnoticed for life.Image

I spent years chasing the perfect body, diet, workout routine until I realized what I was really chasing was safety, love, and acceptance within myself.

This image says it all:

2019 vs 2025.

Vegan. Modeling. Overtraining.
Smiling outside, disconnected within.
I was chasing life.
Now I’m loving it.

Here’s how I stopped running from my emotions and came home to my body:Image
The body stores everything you didn’t feel.

The grief you avoided.
The rage you swallowed.
The fear you buried to survive.

It doesn’t just disappear.
It hides in your gut.
Your jaw.
Your breath.
Your fascia.

You can’t out-train trauma.
You have to release it. Image
I used to train to escape myself.

Every workout was a coping mechanism.
I ran from the stillness.
I thought discipline would save me.

Now? I move to meet myself.
I breathe through resistance.
I open the body with fascia maneuvers.
I let the nervous system unwind.
This is the work that truly healed me.

You’re not just holding tension, you’re holding trauma in your gut.
Bloating, Gas and Constipation?

It’s not random.
Those are emotions your body couldn’t process.

Here’s how to release it in under 2 minutes and why it might even fix your shoulder pain Image
Image
Your stomach is where Resentment hides.

Not rage.
The quiet kind:
•Swallowed betrayals
•Words you never said
•Boundaries you were too afraid to set

You didn’t express it.
So your body held it right in your gut Image
When emotion gets suppressed, fascia tightens.
Especially around the stomach and diaphragm.

That tightness starts to pull everything out of alignment:
•It compresses digestion
•Slows lymph flow
•Traps waste
•And tugs on surrounding structures

Like your left shoulder. Image

THE DOUBLE FIST SILENT SCREAM

This is the second DIY jaw release I use to unlock rage, grief, and trauma stored in the face by tapping into the cranial nerves and fascia.
Try it and feel everything shift. Image
Image
The jaw is a vault for suppressed emotion.
•Rage you never expressed
•Words you couldn’t say
•Grief you swallowed
•Stress you chewed on at night

Most people grind their teeth and clench their jaw without realizing they’re locking trauma into their face. Image
Here’s how to release it (try this now):
•Make fists.
•Push up into the corners of your jaw with both fists.
•Open your mouth as wide as you can.
•Push your head down into the resistance.
•Inhale through the nose.
•Exhale like a silent scream.

Repeat 6 deep breaths.
