In the midst of this holiday weekend, we invite you to take what you need: maybe it's a nap, a meal, or even just a pause. ✨

Taking a second to think about what you need in moments of overwhelm can help you direct your energy towards something supportive. Sometimes, it is not about doing more but being able to choose what you really need in the moment. ⭐

What are you choosing? 🤍

How many gold stars do you want to get? 🌟Or maybe you already have some 😌

No worries if you don’t have any yet because these are habits that can slowly be built into your daily life one at a time.

It is important to focus on progress instead of perfection - you don't need to do every single thing below to make progress. Try one!

The goal is to expand your toolbox so that when you do need support, you are able to find just the thing that you need. 🛠️

Have fun with these this weekend, on a walk, or with a friend (the exaggerated yawn and stretch is Sharon’s favourite!) ⭐

Comment below which of these habits you would like to start doing! ✨

On the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we remember the children who never came home from residential schools. We honour Survivors, their families, and communities, and acknowledge the lasting harm of the residential school system and colonialism.

Reconciliation asks for more than a moment of remembrance. It asks us to keep learning, listen to Indigenous voices, and consider what we can change in our own lives and communities.

If you’re looking for a place to begin or continue, the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation shares the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s reports and Calls to Action at nctr.ca.

We also invite you to read work by Indigenous authors:

• A Mind Spread Out on the Ground by Alicia Elliott
• From the Ashes: My Story of Being Métis, Homeless, and Finding My Way by Jesse Thistle

May we carry what we learn beyond this day.

🌾 Over the years as a Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner (SEP), I’ve woven small practices into my day that help me rest, notice my body, and feel more connected to the present moment.

✨Sometimes that means noticing my breath. Sometimes it means checking whether I’m holding tension in my shoulders, jaw, or somewhere else. I might gently invite that area to soften, then pause to notice what changes.

🤍 These practices have become familiar to me over time. They aren’t something I do perfectly, and there are days when getting through the day is enough.

🫂 If one of these practices speaks to you, try adapting it to your own body. You don’t have to force a feeling of calm or release tension on command. Simply noticing what’s there is a place to begin.

Small moments of awareness count. 💛

👣 A step “backwards” does not mean you have lost your progress or that you are failing.

🛣️Healing does not happen in a straight line.
When you feel like you have gone backwards, pause and notice what may be different now.

🤍Perhaps the trigger did not impact you for as long as it once did. Maybe you felt less disoriented or disconnected and you were able to come back into emotional regulation sooner.

✨Sometimes progress is subtle.
It can look like honouring a boundary, moving through a difficult emotion, sensing a little more safety, or finally allowing yourself to exhale.

💡What feels like a step backwards may actually reveal how much capacity and resilience you have gained.

🤍Healing is not linear—but that does not mean you are moving backwards. What feels like a step backward can reveal just how far you have come.

“It’s just music.”

…is probably something you might have thought when you first learned about the Safe & Sound Protocol.

And honestly, we understand why.
From the outside, it looks simple. Headphones on. Music plays. You listen.
But what SSP is designed to do at the level of the nervous system is much more intentional. ✨

SSP was developed by Dr. Stephen Porges, the neuroscientist behind Polyvagal Theory, and grew out of his research into the relationship between listening, the autonomic nervous system, and social engagement.

The music used in SSP is specially filtered to emphasize particular sound frequencies — including frequencies found in the human voice — with the goal of supporting the nervous system’s ability to notice and respond to cues of safety. 🍃

In other words, this isn’t simply relaxing music or something you put on to create a calming vibe.

It is a structured listening intervention designed to support autonomic regulation and social engagement. 💫

Over time, SSP gives the nervous system repeated opportunities to experience cues of safety differently — potentially creating more room for regulation, connection, and flexibility. 🤍
Mikaela is now offering SSP at New Song Psychotherapy.

If you’ve been curious about whether SSP might be a good fit for you, a free 20-minute consultation is a great place to start.

The benefits of SSP go beyond what we feel. 💫

Through SSP, our capacity to be with stress can gradually increase. We may find ourselves better able to handle situations that once felt overwhelming.

Your co-worker says something that upsets you.

Your child has a meltdown.

You suddenly hear a loud sound.

But this time, your nervous system may not go from zero to overwhelmed within seconds.

Through specially filtered music, SSP offers the nervous system repeated opportunities to experience and respond to cues of safety.

The stressors do not necessarily go away. What can change is your capacity to stay present with them — with less reactivity, less overwhelm, and more room to respond rather than react. 🌾

If you would like to explore whether SSP could support you, our team member Mikaela offers a free 20-minute consultation.

What if the reason you can't think your way to calm isn't a personal failing but actually something deeper? 🌾

Trauma and chronic stress don't just shape our thoughts and memories. They shape our autonomic nervous system. They live in the body's learned responses to threat. They live in patterns that run deeper than insight, deeper than willpower, deeper than a conversation alone can fully reach. ✨

This is why so many people spend years doing the work - reading, journaling, going to therapy and still feel something in their body that won't quite settle. It's not because they aren't trying hard enough but because the nervous system needs something different. 🍃

Safe & Sound Protocol works at exactly that level.

In an SSP session, you sit with Mikaela who guides you through what's happening in your nervous system and why before you put on headphones and let the specially filtered music begin its work. Directly with your vagus nerve, in the part of your autonomic nervous system that receives cues of safety. 💫

Over time, your capacity builds. You are now able to handle the stress that once made you feel overwhelmed. Life starts to feel a little more manageable not because you're trying harder, but because your nervous system finally got the signal it needed. 🤍

Mikaela is now offering SSP here at New Song Psychotherapy and we are so excited to bring this work to our practice.

A free 20-minute consultation is where we start.

If you've ever felt like your body is not fully at rest or just won't let you rest, this one's for you. 🌾

These experiences are for the people who have been quietly struggling with something they can't quite name. Maybe you leave that gathering feeling exhausted. A loud sound causes you to startle. Yet, you have done so much work on yourself and still feel something unresolved living in your body. ✨

SSP — Safe & Sound Protocol — works directly with the body to offer the nervous system something it may not have felt in a very long time:

A genuine cue of safety. 🍃

If you saw yourself in any of these slides, that recognition matters. Our team member Mikaela is now offering SSP here at New Song Psychotherapy, and a free 20-minute consult is the first step. 🤍

There is no pressure or commitment required. Just a conversation about how this might be right for you.
