“After seeing quite a few First Responders go through the 22ZERO protocol for trauma, Tammy invited me to go through it myself. I was a little concerned that she was wasting her time with me because I felt that I was in a peaceful place.
For me it was more subtle, but what I noticed was that i slept really well, especially that night and realized a few days later that I was sharing happy memories of the family member we lost to suicide. It occurred to me that I hadn’t thought of happy memories associated with this person, but just the sad loss.
I think the protocol also brings more awareness and makes it easier to pinpoint what is happening at the time of a trigger, and a way to connect back to a happier time.”
