To help people who help people, the organization needs to be healthy and have practices in place that consider the trauma of those they serve. Lauren Spigelmyer and Jessica Doering have helped thousands of people who help people all over the world. Each week they'll explore tools, insights, and stories to help you lead and live with more clarity, calm, and connection. If you’re looking for support as you grow your organization’s capacity for caring for staff and the community, we would love to be part of that journey.

Sounds That Heal
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, Lauren explores the use of sound and music as therapeutic tools for achieving a calm, meditative state. She delves into two specific types of audio—binaural beats and isochronic tones—and explains how listening to them for just 10-20 minutes can profoundly enhance your ability to regulate your nervous system.
Try-at-home tip: Use natural low lighting or warm low lighting to stay in a state of calm.
