Michael Thomas

Michael Thomas is the creator of The Vagal Method, a system for training the nervous system through breath, heat, and cold. He is the founder of Plunsana, a nervous system performance studio in St. Petersburg, Florida, and a former Wim Hof Method instructor with four years of certified practice.

He has guided over 5,000 people through live nervous system resets, from corporate teams and executives to first responders and healthcare professionals. His work translates the science of the vagus nerve and heart rate variability into simple tools people can use in high-pressure moments.

Michael's approach is grounded in physiology, not hype. He shows audiences how one nerve controls their stress, sleep, mood, and focus, and how to reset it in under a minute.
