Safely Rewire Your Nervous System Through Scientifically Filtered Music
The Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP)
Often times stress and anxiety make us feel AMPED and out of control (panic attacks, angry outbursts, racing thoughts). Other times we shrink, shut down and shut out (isolating from others, not responding to friends, procrastinating with deadlines). Neither are helpful long term solutions.
We can't control all of our life circumstance, but we can certainly change HOW our nervous system and brain react and respond.
Sometimes Traditional Therapy is NOT Enough
With unmanaged stress, anxiety and trauma, relationships suffer, school/work performance drops and life feels exhausting. Finding ways to CALM the Nervous System and feel SAFE in the body (be able to trust again, feel vulnerable and even relax) is key... and WE CAN HELP.
The Ear as a Gentle Portal to the Brain & Nervous System
The SSP is a five total hour, app based listening program that gently exercises the middle ear and stimulates cranial nerves through scientifically filtered music. The participant chooses a playlist, puts on headphones and listens until there is evidence that the nervous system is being stimulated (see symptoms below). When symptoms reach a pre-determined level, the music is stopped until the next planned session. Stimulating the Vagus Nerve and beginning to heal the nervous system is THAT SIMPLE. Imagine feeling more balanced & calm in your body.

How is the SSP Helping Others and What Might I Expect it to Help Me With?
Those with sensory overload, panic attacks, residual trauma, chronic illness, anxiety etc have reported feeling more emotional and physical relief after participating in SSP listening sessions.
Some have reported being able to tolerate loud sounds, uncomfortable physical sensations and bright lights better after the SSP. Others notice they are able to handle stress better and are not getting panicked, angry or tearful as easily.
Some have reported better sleep, while others appear to engage more socially and report feeling less anxious in social settings.
Some speak of dramatic changes while others notice subtle shifts. Much of this success lies within the needs of your nervous system, what it has cost YOU to be living in trauma, chronic illness or anxiety AND where you are now within your own healing journey.
Some sessions are virtual and clinician led, but most are experienced on your own at your own pace from the comfort of your own home through the app.

How do I Know if I am a Good Candidate for the SSP?
- Have a desire to feel more calm, regulated and safe in the body
- Must be seizure free before participating
- Be able to commit to 3-7 listening sessions per week. Sessions last 2 minutes to 30 minutes, depending on the needs of your nervous system
- Be able to tolerate wearing over the ear headphones
- Have consent from any doctors involved in your current physical/emotional treatments

Some clients are able to be introduced to the SSP and can quickly implement the sessions independently at home via an app.
Others may be stimulated rather quickly by the SSP and will need help navigating the program safely and effectively. We have a tired approach to help you get the help you need when you need it. Variables to Client Need May Include:
