 Description
The
newest of the TLP Specialized CDs is Sensory Integration (SI) Kids
CD
1 from Advanced Brain Technologies. It contains musical selections
that
were recorded because they were fun, simple in structure, short, and
very
accessible. Focusing on all of these elements means that a child's
attention
can more easily be captured and maintained. SI Kids 1 has a
significant
focus on spatial awareness and sound localization. With new
technologies
and creative elements in recording and post-production, we are able to
provide
auditory stimulation in a totally new way than we have ever been able
to
do before. It incorporates a combination of new processes called Spatial
Surround™ (patent pending). By creating Spatial Surround, the
listener
is placed in the position of the conductor of an orchestra. In the
middle
of the orchestra, the conductor will hear sounds more individually,
some
very close and some a little farther away. Instead of blended sounds as
you
might hear them in front of the orchestra at a concert, you too will
hear
sounds more individually as the musicians play them around you. You as
the
listener can now more clearly determine the spatial properties of the
sound.
We add movement to the treatment to create Spatial Surround
Dynamic. This is accomplished by processing the music in a
multi-channel environment that uses five completely independent tracks.
This process allows us to
move the sound of each instrument around in a 360 degree field.
Music
The
music selected and recorded for Sensory Integration Kids CD 1 includes
early
compositions by Mozart as well as Bach, Beethoven, Schumann, and
instrumental
versions of traditional folk music and nursery rhymes.
Applications
Sensory
Integration Kids CD 1 stimulates the lower sound frequencies to help
people who have problems related to the vestibular system and
integration of sensory input. Although this is not an all inclusive
list, issues that may be helped include: balance, movement,
coordination, rhythm, body schema, left-right discrimination, spatial
awareness, sensory defensiveness, hypersensitive hearing, and emotional
regulation. Individuals on the autistic spectrum benefit greatly from
this CD as do those who need to a better sense of their body, feeling
more comfortable and grounded through the stimulation of the lower
frequencies before experiencing CDs with high pass filtration such as
those in The Listening Program Classic Kit. Additionally, SI Kids 1 may
help with athletic ability through improved body and spatial awareness,
as well as improved
balance and motor integration.

Listening Schedules
This series may be used independent of The Listening Program
(TLP), or preceding, during, or after regular TLP schedules.
Listening times will vary according to the needs of the individual
listener. There
are many options for using this very adaptable series. We
recommend
taking a break after 2-3 weeks of continued use to prevent
habituation.
A trained professional will provide further assistance in determining
your
optimum schedule.
Maximum Daily Listening
Through
headphones - 30 minutes per day
Through
speakers - 60 minutes per day
Since this CD focuses on lower
frequencies, too much daily listening will result in possible fatigue,
so we encourage sticking with these maximum daily listening
times. As with all TLP
listening, listening is done for 5 consecutive days with 2 consecutive
days
off.
