Safe & Sound Protocol
(SSP)
Restore Safety and Connection from the Inside Out
Calm your nervous system. Reconnect with yourself and others. Experience healing through the science of sound.
Developed by neuroscientist Dr. Stephen Porges, Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) is a non-invasive application of the Polyvagal Theory, whichfocuses on what is happening in the body and the nervous system, and explains how our sense of safety, danger or threat, can impact our behavior. SSP is a five-day music therapy intervention designed to gently regulate your nervous system, reduce stress, and promote emotional well-being.
What Is the Safe and Sound Protocol?
Ideal for those navigating trauma, anxiety, or sensory sensitivities.
The SSP uses specially filtered music to engage the autonomic nervous system, helping your body shift from fight-or-flight into calm and safety.
By supporting your natural capacity for connection and self-regulation, SSP helps you feel grounded, peaceful, and more present in daily life.
How It Works:
Soothing the Nervous System Through Sound
The SSP works by retraining the middle ear muscles using digitally filtered music. This process helps filter out low-frequency sounds that can trigger stress or overwhelm.
As your body relearns what safety feels like, you may notice:
-
Reduced anxiety and emotional reactivity
-
Improved focus and clarity
-
Easier connection with others
-
Deeper rest and relaxation
Benefits of SSP:
SSP can support healing across emotional, physical, and social levels:
✅ Emotional regulation & resilience
✅ Reduced anxiety, depression, & hyperactivity
✅ Improved focus, attention, & memory
✅ Relief from tension, pain, or digestive issues
✅ Support for trauma recovery & grief processing
