Safe & Sound Protocol
“The Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) uses special music to enhance the vagus nerve, helping people move from survival mode to a state of rest and repair where healing occurs. It transformed my life during my struggle with chronic illness, reducing symptoms and increasing my energy. Inspired by my experience, I became certified to help others. I've witnessed incredible transformations in clients dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma, and chronic health issues. My passion for SSP drives me to create a supportive environment for deep healing and growth.” - Erica Skone-Rees, certified SSP Practitioner

Transformative Music Therapy
The Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) is not just music; it's a listening therapy designed to regulate your nervous system. Developed by Dr. Stephen Porges, this powerful, science-backed method uses specially filtered music to stimulate the vagus nerve, promoting a state of calm and enhancing overall nervous system health. SSP is suitable for all ages and benefits those dealing with trauma, anxiety, depression, chronic illness, insomnia, and more. The process involves a collaborative approach guided by a certified practitioner who monitors your pace and progress to align with the rhythm of your nervous system. Easy to use from home with an app on your smart phone and headphones, SSP fosters better health, connection, collaboration, and resilience, providing a supportive pathway to healing and well-being.
