Safe and Sound Protocol

When danger is coded into your nervous system…

Trauma, illness, injury, sensory overload, and developmental differences can create a constant feeling of unease in your surroundings.

It’s like your nervous system is overwhelmed, and that initial jolt sets your threshold for relaxation a little bit higher.

It gets stuck on that elevated setting, keeping you on high alert all the time. You stay on guard against threats… even in ordinary situations.

It leaves your whole mind and body disrupted. You can’t focus, relax, or stay present in the moment… which causes all sorts of issues, like digestive problems or insomnia.

Life is just “too loud.”

You wake up and immediately feel on edge as you anticipate the oncoming noise of the day.

The hum of the refrigerator is distracting, and you have to turn off the fan before you can focus enough to prepare your morning coffee.

On the way to work, the honking and rumbling of traffic may make you tense up, and by the time you arrive at the office, you’re already exhausted.

During a meeting, the sound of chatty coworkers and clicking keyboards seem to overlap, making it hard to focus on any one topic. By midday, your head is already pounding, so you eat lunch in your car just to get a break from the constant noise.

Once you make it home, you’re drained! You can’t even unwind in your quiet space.

There’s a powerful tool to help you feel safe.

When you hear a sound, your body automatically interprets it as either safe or unsafe.

That’s the premise behind the Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP).

SSP is effective by working on the vagus nerve and its associated neural networks in your brain. The vagus nerve plays a key role in regulating your autonomic nervous system, controlling things like your blood pressure, sweating, heart rate, and digestion. The vagus nerve runs throughout the entire body and behind the middle ear, which makes it easily accessed through sound.

The Safe and Sound Program uses specially filtered music (in the frequency range of the human voice) to regulate the vagal nerve network, calming its fight-flight-freeze impulses.

It’s not what you say but how you say it.

SSP is a five-day program for children and adults.

But it’s not a stand-alone program. It’s designed to help you be more available and open to other forms of therapy, like EMDR or talk therapy.

SSP’s filtered music reduces anxiety, improves emotional regulation, and supports overall well-being. It gently shifts your nervous system from a defensive and unsafe state so you can experience the therapeutic breakthrough you need.

SSP shifts the nervous system out of survival mode, making it easier to heal from post-traumatic stress and trauma.

Feel safe in your head and heart again.

There’s no need to keep suffering when you don’t have to.

SSP is a safe, gentle way to heal your nervous system, so you can enjoy calm and peace.

Life can be so much easier.
