If you’re here, there’s a good chance you’ve been carrying something heavy for a long time.
Maybe you’ve tried so many protocols you’ve lost count. Maybe you’re doing “everything right” and your body is still reactive, exhausted, inflamed, anxious, shut down, or overwhelmed. Maybe the hardest part isn’t even the symptoms anymore—it’s the fear underneath them.
The fear that this is permanent.
The fear that you’re too sensitive.
The fear that you’ll get your hopes up, only to crash again.
The fear that you’re alone in this, and no one really understands how hard you’re working just to get through the day.
This page is for the tender places in you that are tired of pushing.
Because what many people don’t realize is that healing isn’t only about doing more. Sometimes it’s about restoring the part of the system that can recognize safety again.
Music can be medicine for the nervous system. When sound is delivered with the right pacing and support, it can help the body shift out of chronic threat responses and into the states where repair, digestion, immune regulation, sleep, and emotional steadiness become possible.
And if you’re ready to go deeper, we offer a guided pathway to do exactly that.
The Safe & Sound Nervous System Reset
The Safe & Sound Reset is a nervous system healing program designed for people living with chronic conditions that impact energy, emotional capacity, and daily functioning. It blends the Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP)—a music-based vagal nerve stimulation program created by Stephen Porges—with somatic practices, mindfulness, and gentle, trauma-informed pacing.
This isn’t about “positive thinking.” It’s not about forcing your body to calm down. It’s about meeting your system the way it actually is, and helping it build a new relationship with safety—slowly, steadily, with support.
The program includes group sessions and individual support sessions with certified practitioner Erica Skone-Rees, so you have both personalized guidance and a community container that helps you stay with the work when it’s hard, when you’re tired, or when your belief dips.
THE SAFE & SOUND NERVOUS SYSTEM RESET
Begins March 3, 2026
For the part of you that’s afraid it will never change
If you’ve been bed-bound, house-bound, or living in a narrow life because your body can’t tolerate “normal” stress… if you’ve been cycling through exhaustion, pain, allergic reactivity, grief, fear, brain fog, emotional overwhelm, and hypersensitivity… it makes complete sense that a part of you is bracing for disappointment.
This work is designed for that part.
Not to “fix” you. To support what’s already trying to protect you.
And to offer your system something it may not have had in a long time: a clear map, gentle pacing, and steady co-regulation so you don’t have to do it alone.
You do not need to be “high functioning.” You do not need to have energy. You do not need to push. This program meets you where you are. You can show up from bed, in pajamas, with low capacity—and still be held.
This program is for people living with chronic symptoms that impact your energy, emotions, immune system, sensory tolerance, or baseline functioning. It’s for those who feel exhausted no matter how much you rest, reactive or inflamed, overwhelmed by food/chemicals/stress, stuck in fight/flight or shutdown, isolated and misunderstood, or deeply frustrated by doing everything right and still not improving.
Who Is this For?
Why Your Nervous System Matters
Your symptoms are real. And they’re rooted in biology. But even after infections, toxins, and other medical layers are addressed, many people remain stuck in patterns like hypervigilance, shutdown, inflammation, emotional dysregulation, reactivity, fatigue, pain, sensory overwhelm, and the feeling of being unable to “calm down.”
This isn’t because your body is broken. It’s because your safety system has been overwhelmed for too long.
Sound-based vagus nerve stimulation, delivered slowly and intentionally, can help re-teach the nervous system how to shift out of threat responses and into the rest-and-repair states that support healing.
Why Community Matters
Private sessions are powerful, and healing often accelerates in community. When you’re witnessed, when you practice alongside others, and when co-regulation is built into the structure, your nervous system receives more cues of safety than it can generate alone.
Community also supports the places where healing often breaks down: when you start to feel a little better and stop your practices, when a flare scares you, when life throws a curveball, when you get exhausted and lose momentum, when you feel ashamed that you’re not “there yet.”
In this container, consistency is held for you. You’re not asked to do it perfectly. You’re asked to do it gently, together.
What’s Included
A complete Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) Journey
6 month access to SSP, guided pacing, titration, and weekly support so you move steadily toward regulation.
Six monthly 1:1 private sessions
Tailored to your needs, symptoms, pacing, flare patterns, emotional landscape, and daily capacity. Each month, you’ll schedule your one-on-one session directly through Erica’s calendar, choosing from available appointment times that work best for you. Sessions are offered Tuesday–Friday between 10:30 am and 6:00 pm Pacific.
Ten online group sessions over 5 months
These sessions offer steady support and connection, with a structure designed to hold you even when your energy fluctuates. One group session is held on the first Tuesday of each month from 6:00–7:15 pm Pacific. The second monthly group session is scheduled collaboratively once the group is formed, allowing us to choose a time that best supports everyone’s needs.
A Regulation Library of Body-based Tools
Tools to use during flares, overwhelm, exhaustion, triggers, or emotional flooding.
Gentle, consent-based community support
No pressure to perform, share, or show up in any particular way.
