Finding Calm: Chris Paige on the Safe and Sound Protocol
“I want to leave people with hope that, even if you're in your deepest, darkest struggle, this is temporary and it can change.”
Imagine if listening to music could help you feel safer and more at ease. In this episode of the Real Joy Recovery Podcast, host Michele Waterman chats with Chris Paige, a seasoned therapist with over 28 years of experience in trauma treatment. They dive into how trauma impacts the nervous system and explore innovative techniques like the Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) that can help people heal.
SSP uses specially-filtered music to stimulate the vagus nerve, making it easier for individuals to feel calm and secure. Chris shares his insights on why traditional mental health treatments often fall short and emphasizes the importance of feeling your emotions to truly heal. He also discusses the role of attachment in recovery and warns against the pitfalls of toxic positivity.
If you're curious about new ways to address trauma and enhance emotional well-being, this episode offers valuable perspectives and practical advice from an expert in the field.
