I totally forgot about the following account til today, but I thought it was still interesting enough to write it down. When you think of places that play soothing sounds in the background, people usually think of salons and spas. Well, add ECT treatment room to that list. As I was getting situated for ECT, I noticed the sound of the ocean that seem to fill

Sorry for not updating so often anymore, but life is happening, and I have other very life-normal important things to focus on, too
Sound is getting better and better..., that gave me a 14 days extra wait, which is rather frustrating since I’m on top sound and need to both increase levels and adjust them some. But I have used the “worst” program

Stop, close your eyes, and listen to the sounds around you: the birds, the wind

I generally spend some time teaching them to breath properly and how to relax
