Has anybody tried vagus nerve stimulation? I tried it but didn't get anywhere much.

Some kinds of meditation stimulate it. I've tried those.
Where did you hope to get?

Not sure if this is a good idea though.

There is this technique: https://therapyinanutshell.com/vagus-nerve-exercise/ that seems to stimulate the vagus nerve.

Place your hands on the back of your head, with the fingers interlocked, and the thumbs pointing down gently pressing/rubbing on your neck.
Slowly move your eyes to any fixed direction (say, to the right) and keep your eyes open, staring to the right.
This will initiate a yawn or deep sigh in most people, stimulating vagus nerve.
