Description

5 x 60 minute consecutive sessions

The Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) is a compilation of familiar songs organized and altered in very scientific and specific ways to elicit the brain and middle ear to ever slightly shift over the course of 5 days. The specific songs are chosen to meet the scientific criteria discovered by Dr. Stephen Porges. Trauma unfortunately leaves an imprint on the brain, vestibular system and nervous system to be hyper aware of its environment to feel safe and can stay with us for years after an adverse experience. If we are always focusing on background noises it is sending messages to the brain that it is possibly not safe or maybe even never safe. We are on high alert and unable to focus or hear the person who is trying to speak to us calmly, make eye contact with us and connected with us. It also makes it very hard to rest, focus, connect with others, relax or sleep if we are unconsciously focused on all the background noises. The brain is getting constantly bombarded with messaging that it is not safe – overwhelmed by noise pollution.

We often see in highly traumatized individuals and in the Autism Spectrum with an inability to hear female voices within a specific tonal range, any ability to make or hold eye contact or to focus on a task for very long. These individuals are constantly too distracted by what their brain and ears are literally fixated on which makes being around loud noises, in groups and even watching a movie too stimulating and overwhelming. The Safe and Sound Protocol slowly starts to help the brain and middle ear shift it perspectives and rigidity. The music has been scientifically developed to focus specific part of the middle ear and brain to help achieve a calmer Autonomic Nervous System by slowing awaking and shifting how you perceive the world through sound.
