What is the SSP?
The SSP (Safe and Sould Protocol) was designed by the neurologist Stephen Porges, who developed the polivagal theory, which allowed unprecedented understandings in embodied therapies and the mind-body relationhip.
The SSP is not only about listening to music, but to listen and perceive your body while you listen to filtered music that will help your body feel safe again. When you give space and time to your body to perceive itself being safe, it achieves a natural, potent, and deep regulation and more wellness every time.
Some questions (and their answers):
Do you really want to release stress?
It is necessary to learn how to give regulation to your body.
What is regulation?
Autonomous physiological movements and adjustments of the body that bring it back to an adequate balance in its functions.
How to make my body do these adjustments?
In many ways. One is through regulation of the vagus nerve by an auditory pathway.
In what does the SSP consist?
Listening to 10 sessions of filtered music that help your nervous system feel safe again.
Can I listen to one or two sessions only?
